Over the last three weeks we have been doing an innovation project and we just finished two days ago and yesterday we took all of our stuff don from presenting in the media center. i think over all i learned how to be more willing to work with peoples ideas and be a less of an of topic thinker if you know what i mean. i also think my presentation skills have improved a bit because of all the presentations lately. i had a GREAT time it was soo fun and i am sad it is over.

6th grade what if project
last week Tuesday we went to Hayworth and learned the process of designing. then we went to the library and wet our clients Mr. Klunder and Mrs. deru from the city of zeeland. so the first thing we did when we got done we that is we went to Heritage square. we went there later and found that it is almost 100 feet long from the end of heritage square to the end of the lot. then when we got back to school we looked through the project brief and highlighted the important parts and wrote them on sticky notes. so then we put the sticky notes in to groups. then we voted on the topics we wanted to use in a matrix we were making. now a matrix is a grid that has a term on one side and another on the top. kinda like this.

egypt project
Over the last few weeks we have been making an egypt project. We made an exhibit explaining the wonders of egypt, we also read a book. My favorite part was we found a website that you can make a mummy on and we videoed me making a mummy. I learned that the pharoh ramsess the 2nd thought that he was awesome. I also learned to collaborate you have to make compromises and help the team not your self and contribute.
