Capstone Reflection

Capstone has helped me in a lot of ways. Some ways minor some way major. But most of all it was a fun and fascinating project the helped me learn how to make a good presentation.

Capstone helped is making me more confident in public speaking. I use to be nervous and would hate public speaking, but now if we have to voluntarily speak in front of people I will want to do it so bad even if we don’t have to.

But also I had to do an interview. I interviewed Amanda Singleton, Theoretical Physicist, Head of Physics at a British high school. She helped me a lot with my presentation and helped me with 2 of my 3 subquestions that I needed to answer. She also helped me with some facts that I added to my presentation And was overall a big help.

Capstone helped me a lot in many ways and helped me remember all the fun I had at Heathcote, doing projects and playing with my friends. Capstone was a great experience and was overall really fun.

 

 

Persuasive Essay

When our teacher told us we were doing a persuasive essay I knew that I would do mine about all kids should have access to books. I struggled a bit finding facts to put in my essay but after that I did fine. We worked on this for around 2 weeks. I really enjoyed it because it made me think outside the box for what I was going to write.

Math Graphing – Bar Graphs and Pictographs

This is my graphing project. I surveyed my classmates and teachers and asked my question, “What is your favorite animal?” They could choose from 5 choices: tigers, wolves, eagles, spiders and snakes. I tallied my results and created a bar graph. On my slideshow, I created both a bar graph and a pictograph to display my data. One thing I enjoyed about this project was making the bar graph in Google Sheets. One thing I found challenging about this project was typing my introduction. I hope you enjoy viewing my final Google Slides Presentation.
