                         Aren't these the cutest glasses? They have leopard frames. They are my favorite color on the inside. The shape is slim fitting. It could fit my face. I think I would like to wear these one day.

                        This puppy reminds me of my puppy. Doesn't she look like she could get into trouble? I bet she has bad breath. She looks like she could run very fast. She looks like she is very playful.
                   I like these flowers. The yellow color reminds me of the sun. The yellow also goes well with the green color of the grass. The center of the flower looks funny. It reminds me of a peanut butter cup!

                    This jet reminded me of my dad. He went on a jet to Tennessee. I like how the jet is faster than a regular plane. It looks sleak in the sky. I'd like to fly on a plane like this.

                      I thought this sea turtle looked really big. I like the brown colors on his under shell. It almost looks like he has a beak. He is so big, I wonder how old he is? It looks like he could fly through the water.

Pre-blog assignment!!

Step 1


Decide what type of interview you'd like to do. The most common are face-to-face and phone interviews. Face to face gives you an opportunity to look at the person and see the look on their face when they're telling their stories. A phone interview gives the person a little more anonymity and might provide an easier outlet for someone to open up.



Step 2

Set up a time or place to meet with your subject. If you are meeting face to face, meet in a place that is comfortable to the subject.



Step 3

Bring a recorder and a notebook and pen. Turn the recorder on during the interview, but write down in the notebook key things that were said. You can also write down the time certain things were said by watching the timer on your recorder.



Step 4

Start a conversation, not an interview. Have a conversation with your subject because you want them to be comfortable with what they're talking about. The more comfortable your subject is, the better the interview will be.



Step 5

Listen. Let your subject talk. Don't be so quick to interject with more questions. Wait for a definitive pause before asking your next question.



Step 6

Let the conversation steer your line of questioning. It's good to go into the interview with an idea of what you want to ask, but don't be afraid to ask your questions in response to what your subject has said.



Step 7

Let the interview go as long as it needs to. Don't limit your time or your subject's chance to tell his story. This will ensure the most complete interview possible. After he is finished, thank them for their time.
