What Does it Mean to be an American? A documentary...

Reflection and proof of my badge completion

   

     Reflection on this badge: For history we had to do this quest for Smithsonian. In this we had to complete tasks in order to earn a badge. The badge that I earned was the correspondent badge. I didn't enjoy this project. To earn this badge I had to write a lot of journal entries and I had to get a lot of pictures of the web of the presidential inauguration. I did not like doing this project mostly because there was so much that I had to do and I had to write a lot of journal entries on things that I didn't really know that well about. I had to write my account of what I was thinking when President Obama was first inaugurated. I was only in sixth grade when this happened and I really don't remember what happened that day. They said in the quest that I should try to write about peoples expressions that they had when they were watching it on television but I really don't remember much about what everyone in my class looked like as they were watching it. I only remember that my history teacher came in cheating that we were all paying attention to the television and she always talked about how this moment was very important for history. So anyways ya, I didn't really enjoy this project that much but I did earn my correspondent badge.

Hello again! I continuously forget to blog and that is really bad so I actually remembered to do this tonight which is great! Anyways on Monday we had a half day and we didn't have class and today we worked on our integrated projects that are due next week. What this project is is we have to pair up with people and then we create a guide to living in America during the time of the Westward Expansion. During this time there were many immigrants who came to America to farm the land in the west. Our job is to take one group of immigrants that came to the U.S. and to write a guide to help them get used to living in the United States.
