Social Studies Timeline project

What did you think of your finished product? I thought I did well and I could see that I used a lot of time and effort to do it.

How did this challenge you? it was challenging to copy and paste the pictures to google docs and to print them and cut them out because I tried printing the pictures and it wouldn’t work and it wouldn’t let me copy and paste the pictures to google docs. 

What was easy about this for you? It was easy to write neatly, and to draw the inches on the timeline 

 

What are you most proud of from this process? I am proud of working hard and I am proud of finishing it on time.

zip lining

How did your mindset change throughout the day? At first I had a fixed mindset because i said I couldn’t do it but then my Friends cheered me on and I did it my friends cheering me on helped me go on the zip lines because if they weren’t I would feel super scared and I don’t think I would be able to do it.
How did you feel as others cheered you on? I felt good and proud that I actually did it because I am very scared of heights.
Was it what you expected? Yes- why? No- what was different? It was not what I expected I thought that there was only going to be one zip line and I thought it was going to be shorter.
Would you do it again? Why? Yes, because I thought it was fun challenging myself and facing my fears.

high holidays project brainstorm

My topic ( woman and the high holidays )

 

what do I know about my topic? on Rosh Hashana we eat apples and honey, we eat a lot of sweat foods to evoke a sweet new year, on Rosh Hashana we blow the shofar.

What are ten other questions I have that I need to research for a further study? How are woman connected to Rosh Hashana? Who are the woman that are mentioned in prayers/services? And which prayers? And why are they mentioned? What is the story for each of those woman? How is each story connected to high holidays? What are there names? Why are each of those woman significant to this day? What do we know about these woman? Why do we celebrate Rosh Hashana?

where will I begin to look for those answers? By researching on google

what help do I need to move forward in my project? Finding sources

etc challenge

What was challenging about these challenges? cleaning up all of the crumbs was challenging, and trying to make the ring out of Pringles challenging.
