FHP Reflection

Purpose: Well the family history helped us learn more about our families and what events they had experienced in the past. Also how to managed several dates . It was a pretty enjoyable project because we got to interview family relatives. And we get to find out that their life wasn't really boring as I thought it would be. Like my family friend he experienced the Vietnam war, and how he actually fought in the front line of the war.

First hand out was the pre-project plan. That was for us so we could already narrow our choice out than just say that the family member couldn't t do the interview and then you would be stuck in the middle of the project. Then was the project plan and it was pretty much the same as the project pre-plan. Then we had to was when we chose the historical event that they have been and do a historical narrative. Then once we did the narrative we had to a personal narrative. Then was the interview write-up. Then there were 2 ways to present this project. It was either the scrapbook way or the news article. I did the news article. Then on the night we presented we had to stand by our project and answer any questions.

What I learned : I learned about how the Vietnam war started, who started it how it ended. I didn't think my family was that interesting but this project helped me explore the culture and the past that my family experienced. The skills I learned were on how to use a graphic organizer. How to analyzes data from the Internet(not using Wikipedia). How to interview people which was pretty cool because I never interviewed anybody before. And what was cool was that I learned how to bind and scan pictures. I learned how to organize lots of due dates so I could finish .

Reflection: I enjoyed this project because it helped me learn more about my family. I never you that m family was that interesting. What I could of done was that I should of got more pictures to make a scrap book. Next time I think I should procrastinate less and get more time to work on the project. I would also try to get more artifacts to make my project more interesting. But overall this project was a really fun project to do.
