The 5th grade each year does a capstone, part of the capstone requires conducting an interview. I personally think I did well and it was very interesting to talk to an expert.

For my interview, at first, I was thinking about interviewing someone from the plague museum in England but I couldn’t find anyone. Then, my dad said he could contact his old medieval history professor. When we scheduled the date, he didn’t show up, but then he came back on Saturday. 

Conducting the interview was very fun. He was very nice and happy to do the whole thing. It went as expected, I got all the answers and he said I had very good questions. I learned a lot of things in just 20 minutes. I think the whole interview helped me a lot and it will help me with my capstone.

All in all, I really enjoyed doing the interview and meeting new people, I hope we can do this in middle school too and maybe go somewhere new.
