My topic is the Boston Massacre. I chose it because I didn’t really understand why it happened at the start and I wanted to learn more. My presentation is a Ted Talk. I thought it would be easy to click through when I am ready. I didn’t do a movie because I wanted to speak in front of an audience. I didn’t do an Ignite because I didn’t want the computer controlling the slides.I needed the most support with finding the right pictures. I couldn’t think out of the box. What I did to fix that is that I learned that I can only explain part of it with the pictures.

My favorite part of this project was that I could choose what I wanted to research and that I got to explain what I think of the event. The project helped me learn how to get information off the web. It helped me to not search for specific information and to find information and put it in my own words. I also had to think outside of the box when finding pictures for my presentation. I realized I did not need exact photos to match my script, I just needed photos that represent the information that I am sharing on each slide. This project helped me with being more comfortable with  presenting because after a lot of practice I now  feel more comfortable presenting  in front of a group of people which will 100% help me while I am presenting. I think that now that I am more comfortable presenting, when the parents come in it will go by like a breeze.
