Verse 1. the cost of childbirth is crazy, to have a baby, lately its not even funny when you cant get enough money to buy a jar of honey. <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">its hard to get a good income , <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">when you not number one <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"> with money.when its hard to get a orange, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">imagine buying a door hinge <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">for your house, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">when there's 10 people there, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">you should care, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">But there is no room for a mouse.

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Chorus

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">For six years we've been teaching teens what to do <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">and the death rate has gone down, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">when I read that i felt happier than a clown, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">and im down for anything to be helpful and not doubtful. <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">when you fall you want to have to have a grappling hook, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">if you want to help look, <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">at A better world.com, thats only half our song.

<span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">In this project I learned a LOT. I learned about MORPHO and how to use it. <span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">We recorded in it, I am not sure if it is in the video. I could of made the picture <span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">in MORPHO better, mad it more realistic. Samantha did the MORPHO <span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">but the photo was of me. But we did good on it. <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">I also learned a lot about Maternal Health. For instance 35000 <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">women died giving birth. And that young woman gave birth, even if they <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">didn’t want to. I thought that that was terrible. I wanted to donate when <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">I learned about it. I think everybody should. <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">Also I learned a lot about teamwork and working together. It was nice <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">to have someone help me with the rapping. Also we could have made the <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">chorus longer. I wrote it longer but we didn’t have enough time to do it in <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">the song. But I think we did a great job. I worked with Charley and <span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">Samantha, my name is William.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;">Charley:
<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">I learned a lot about maternal health during our computer project. Our project was to make <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> a rap about maternal health. I learned how important maternal health is. For example 35000 <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">women die during childbirth over a year. Also I learned that the costs of childbirth can quickly <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> exhaust a family’s income. In the second verse of the rap I learned that for six years we've been <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> teaching teens what to do and the death rate has gone down. In the third verse of our rap we <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> learned that in 2008 258,000 woman died.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> I used a lot of technology in making a rap about maternal health. I used Audacity to put all the <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> loops I found together into a song for the rap. The computer I used was a Dell computer. I used <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> Google docs to hold all off the facts we found. I used a flash drive to take the song off the computer <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">and onto a different computer. I also used Morfo to record the rap part of the song.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> I think William, Samantha, and I worked together very well. We all did our Job and helped each <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">other when one of us was stuck. We did not fight. We knew right away who was going to do each <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">part of the project. When William needed help with the rap I helped him. When I needed help using <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> the flash drive Samantha helped me. Over all we worked very well together.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> We did some things very well in the project. One of them was the music. I worked very hard <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">on putting the loops together and working on the reverb and echo. We also did very well on the <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> video. Samantha worked very hard on the video and it paid off very well. William worked very <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">hard on writing the lyrics. He did a very good job and writing lyrics is very hard.

<span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> There was a couple of thing that I thought we could have done better. One of them was the recording. <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;">When we recorded the lyrics we sounded all fuzzy like bad radio reception. Another one was our Google <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> docs page. Our Google docs page was very messy and hard to understand. These are things I think we could <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif;"> have done better.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">The topic for this project was maternal health; maternal health is a serious problem that is happening <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">all around the world. Many women die from bad health conditions surrounding their pregnancy. Some <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">mothers can’t afford to take care of a baby. Another problem is that there are birth defects that cause the <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> young infants to die after birth. The death rate has dropped since the 90’s. Mothers have infections that <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> cause them or their baby to die.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">The technology that I used was Google docs, Audacity, and coral video studio. I used Google docs to collect <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> information the struggles of maternal health, Charley used Audacity to make the music for the video, and I <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">also used coral video studio for making the video.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> The people I worked with were Charley and William. Charley worked on the music, William worked on the rap <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> and the lyrics. And I was left to do the video. Working with the boys was fun; they all did their part in the project. <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">Even though it was hard sometimes to get through to William, I would work with them again, if I was allowed.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> What we did well was working together and being a team. We worked on everything together. Everyone helped <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">each other, even when another person in the group needed help. What we need to work on is listening to each <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">other, and communicating. We have to stay focused, and stay on top of work. Meaning we have to keep up with <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> the group. ||
