Capstone Blog Post #3 – Final Project

The way I answered my main inquiry question was only getting the important information so I did not waste my time sorting stuff out.  Also, I had parts to answer. One of them is, “What is the best spinning reel overall” and “What do those reels have in common?”  Then I continued to do my research and secure my interview.

When I did my research I only got what was most relevant to my main inquiry questions so I could get it done quickly and not waste time. Then I interviewed my uncle and once I interviewed him I got much more information and that made it like a hot knife through butter.

Once I’d finished doing whatever I needed to get my main inquiry question answered I moved onto writing my script and filming my TED talk and I am getting ready to finish the final filming of my TED Talk.

Here is the final film of my capstone  https://youtu.be/hqDfrM_Dprg

What I learned is how to us adobe spark. And promoting my colony. When we were building our colonies not every thing can go as planned. Like when we were building the buildings were misplaced. Also the map we made are colony had look like the map. But we had to make minor changes. To the colony to make work with what we got. When we started we had to find cardboard and there was not that much.

in my reading, we have been studying how to research.

Information to help us in are animal comic book / information book. We used books that we organized easiest to hardest. Are subtopics where Habitat,snakes body,predators and prey. We organized are research by putting it in the matching subtopics. The most important thing I learned of the research process is that some informational pictures can be fake. My animal I researched is a snake.

 

 

After this project, I took everything that I learned about research and used in my country research project.
