As I said in my last blog post, we are doing a project called capstone project in school. Just a review, capstone is a project that every 5th grader has to do at the end of the year. You get to choose any topic you want, then research it, interview an expert (or two and three), and then put together this BIG presentation. Capstone is also the most important project in 5th grade.
Honestly, I am really excited to present my capstone. When I was in 4th grade, my friend in 5th grade told me about capstone, and I got really scared. Now I’m really confident in myself. Also now I learned that there will not be as big of an audience as I thought it would be. I learned that it is divided into rooms, so there would be about ten kids in each room.
On the 15th I had my first interview. It was with my friend’s grandfather who is a producer that has been producing for many years. He gave me a lot of information related to my question. He told me that the lights in the theater used to be the most expensive part and the sound was not that expensive, but now it is the opposite.
On the 19th I will have my second and third interviews with my uncle and my uncle’s wife. They are both actors and they are coming to have their wedding at my house, so it is perfect. Their names are Tedra Millan and Saamer Usmani.
In all, I am feeling both nervous and excited about Capstone. I am also really excited to Do my last two interviews. This will not be my last blog post because I am not done with this project, so you can find more information in my next blog post.
