Capstone Reflection #1

We are starting capstone and I am very excited to research world war two so Jackson and Dylan are doing world war two. Capstone is where a  5th grader gets to decide a topic that they want to research and interview someone and make a main query question: What factors contributed to the major turning points in world war two? Let me tell you more about capstone!

When I heard that we were going to do capstone I was nervous about due dates and I did not know what my topic was going to be about. I was thinking about wars like world war two, world war one, the cold war, Vietnam and the war in Ukraine. But i cut it down to two topics world war two and the cold war but i chose world war two. But my friend Jackson and Dylan was also doing world war two so i was very concerned on if our capstones were going to be the same when i heard about the main query question i new our projects were going to be much different.

My main query question was going to be what happened in world war two but you had to upgrade your question so Ms Cooper helped me with my main query question to What factors contributed to the major turning points in world war two? What factors contributed to the major turning points in world war two? It sounded great and i was so happy but there was so much to cover.

My sub questions are How did Hitler start preparing to invade poland What factors made certain countries become involved in the war? What factors caused the US to invade Japan? How did Europe try to stop hitler? What were the major battles of WWII? What roles did countries play in world war 2? They are great sub questions that i am very intrigued to read about and do my project on these questions.

I hope you research would war two too and you enjoy it.
