It’s been a week since Fionna & Cake Season 2 Episode 1 - The Hare and the Sprout released, so I’m gonna start posting storyboards! Simon’s just a sweet old peepaw.
And some rough designs for shippuuden Cadebra, Pep and Blaine! I was pushing for the six stripes for Pep but it was probably a better call to keep it at five.
MAYA IS SO GOOD IT’S INSANE!!!!! All these drawings and boards are so peak ;-; Amazing job buddy! <3
I have a reblog tumblr now! Right now, most of it is Adventure Time/Fionna and Cake lol. Also, CHECK OUT MAYA’S INCREDIBLE WORK!!
do you think Wikipedia has a dead man’s switch mechanism to replace every instance of “is” with “was” in the event of a planet-wide species-ending apocalypse
i’m not saying people shouldn’t be reading more books, but i do think it’s funny how many people thinking “reading comprehension” is just about how good you are at reading books and not like. criticial thinking skills.
Before my niece was in school and her first few summers, I babysat her pretty often, natch. Occasionally I’d take her to a movie (mostly as an excuse to watch a “kids” movie, ha) but there was a lot of PBS and Netflix because then I could lay out the grapes and crackers.
And after the movie, or every few episodes, I’d ask her, you know, what her favorite part was, or what did she think would happen next? Total glass eyes. Okay, okay, favorite is a bit much. Was there a part she liked? A character? ….. Any character’s name?
I told my sister I was concerned of course. I got blown off. And then she started school and started getting notes about her reading comprehension and my sister was like but she knows how to read, I know she knows what words mean! And I was like no no no this is what I was talking about and like. Obviously I read the four year old picture books too but the example that came to mind was being disappointed we couldn’t finish Carmen Sandiego and either not knowing or not wanting to tell me the main character’s name.
And she’s like, well that isn’t reading.
Okay! So! The skill isn’t named correctly but that’s what it is!! That’s what it is for a 4 year old, they should at least be on that level!
It’s not about knowing the most words or the most complicated grammar, it’s about being able to give a basic summary of a post and add a semi-relevant anecdote (lol). on its most basic level, it’s about not pissing on the poor
A handful of people have told me I should have put my tags in the actual post so here you go:
The good thing about critical thinking skills is that they can be developed and improved upon with patience and practice
Obsess with me. Suck at tagging things. Reblog like lightning. My posts vary from serious to absolutely ridiculous. Feel free to say hi! Melissa. She/her.
