I can’t imagine living in colonial times, it is so different from today. When I started the project I didn’t notice how amazing colonial times can be! When I first started I wasn’t exactly sure what colonial region I wanted to choose but then when I learned about the Southern colonies it popped out and stuck with me. 

I chose to take notes in the organizer packet because I thought it was the best choice for me ; it helped me organize without having to do it myself. I chose the infographic because I liked the way it organized my information. I used a lot of helpful websites, I used Epic, Ducksters and Trueflix to help me research. It wasn’t challenging finding the information I needed, but it sure was challenging cutting out information! I put my information into six groups: geography, daily life, economics, jobs, chief products, and an interesting fact. I chose to organize my facts this way because I felt it really hit the overall point of my research. I think the biggest challenge in creating this project was cutting out information, all of my facts were important! 

The part of the project I enjoyed most was making it into an infographic. I loved the way it looked! If I could go back I think I would change how I organize it. I felt the “daily life” section could be broken up into many parts. For example, clothing, food,women, men, children, etc. When I saw my finished piece I was really proud of the time and effort I put into it.  It was amazing! 

Enjoy!

Thanks for looking!
