For my final Capstone project, I had to write an outline and the main points I was going to say. Then I made that into a script. I wanted to do one continuous video. I looked at the outline and realized I couldn’t do that. This was my only challenge in the whole project. I […]

Capstone 2
For our Capstone, we are supposed to interview an expert. I tried to email two celebrities that I know love baking, but they didn’t respond. I didn’t expect them to.

American Revolution #1
I am interested in learning more about George Washington’s life. He seems interesting, being America’s first president. I know he fought in the American Revolution, and that he was America’s first president, but not much about his back – story.
Colony Reflection
I learned that getting people to come to a colony is hard because it was hard was that the pictures were not something you would find in a colony. The way that the colony connects to poster is that the job I chose is a job that you would find in the colonies.
