I am in 5th grade and I am assigned to do a capstone project my teacher said that to get information kids will need to do an interview. I thought it will be impossible but I found a person here’s how.

When thinking of who I was going to interview I first thought to myself of a person who was at the game as the chances were low for a player to respond. My mom wanted me to risk it and ask a player even with a low chance of him responding. I sent him a call and hoped he would respond. Over time of waiting, I thought he would not get back Until I got a call it was from Massachusetts and that is where he lives.  I was instantly excited and I heard Mike Eruzione on the other side of the phone.

When conducting the interview I asked for zoom but he couldn’t that did not stop me I was excited to do it over the phone. The interview met my expectations and was able to get a lot of research on behind-the-scenes it was great I interviewed a person like him and it helped out a lot in the long run as it just makes it so much better.

In all, I am ready for the future as I know it will be great. I am so happy I did this interview because it will help a lot.

When doing a Geography project it was the first one of the year I did not know what to expect. I was excited and not nervous when are teacher said we get to choose our groups I was excited I realized a lot of my friends were in a group so I chose the group with them. I was so excited to start learning about the amazing state of Wyoming it was a crazy experience and I learned so much and got so much information it was great and I was confident about our presentation we had even made a Kahoot for the class to see if they can remember stuff it was so fun and the game was so fun to watch over this experience it was fun to be in a group and learn awesome things this will be a unit I never forget.

Capstone Blog 1 Figuring out my Main Inquiry Question

About 2 weeks ago, my teacher Mrs. Edwards assigned a capstone project. A capstone is a research topic that you get to choose to learn more about and a way to end off your elementary school Career. I was excited and knew what I was going to do. I quickly thought and knew the Miracle on Ice as I knew it would be a good one so I started planning.

I chose to do it on Miracle on Ice because I was recently there and had a lot of knowledge about it this is why I chose it. But my goal was to learn more I did not know who I was going to interview. But I decided to call the captain with a low chance of him responding. I was lucky he responded and planned my interview.

When going through my main question it was hard my teacher explained to us a 4 and a 0 4 being the best so I tried. When turning in my question I only got a 3. That would not stop me as I wanted a 4, but then I got some help and was able to come up with a good question that I am going to stick with. I was excited to start making good sub-questions.

When making sub-questions I did not think it will be that hard because they only had to be a little research question but I was wrong I was struggling with the third one. So again I went to the teacher and got the help I needed then I was able to create every sub-question I needed, and I am ready for the future of capstone.

So far Capstone has been really fun and I can not wait for the future. It feels like I just started but I already have so much information. I am ready for the journey. It is going to be a good one.
