The 5th grade recently started capstone! Capstone is when you pick a topic that you are interested in and then you come up with a question about that topic that you research. You then come up with sub questions that will help you research your main question. For my topic I choose the brand “ Nike”. My main question for Nike was “ how does Nike impact the environment and how do they address it?”. The whole process of picking my question was really hard because there were so many possibilities that I did not know which one to pick! Picking my sub questions was a little easier because  I had my main question already mapped out and so I just had to think about questions that would help me. 

We then got straight to researching and finding resources to use. This took a bit of time because you had to make sure it was the right document. By that I mean you had to read it through one to make sure it was the information you were looking for, you then had to read it again and take close notes on it so that you don’t forget the information  that you just read. 

Capstone has been really fun so far and I am really excited to do more!
