For the constitution project, I chose to do my question on Ruby Bridges. I chose this because I was looking through people that were civil rights leaders for the project and Ruby Bridges seemed so interesting! She was a 6 year old black girl that changed segregation in schools! I am really happy I chose to do Ruby Bridges because she was so fun to learn about and study.

My research question was: Why is it important to learn about Ruby Bridges and her experiences today? When I first got it, I thought it would be sort of easy to do because it was a broad topic. But it was a bit of a challenge. I liked my question though. Sometimes I found it challenging to find the right information because I would sometimes get a lot of information I didn’t really need. I also found it a bit challenging to write some of the script. But I kept trying and at the end, I was very proud.

I think this project was long but very fun to work on! Sometimes the process was a little hard because I would get stuck on what to write, but I figured out a way to make everything work. I learned so much on Ruby Bridges. I learned that she was 6 years old when she went to an all-white school. She was able to change peoples thinking about segregation in schools. Overall, this was a super fun experience and I think I learned a lot about Ruby Bridges and how she was a huge part of our history!
