Spring Break is Upon Us!!!!

I think that we can all agree that everyone is in need of a break from school! I don't have any fun plans over Spring Break, do you? 

For you blog post this week, I want you to update your progress so far. What have you done to work on your project? Have you worked on it outside of school hours, or only during the time allotted in class? Do you plan to dedicate anytime to the project over spring break? If so, what do you plan to do? Have you encountered any hurdles so far in the project? If so what are they? 

Use the questions above to aid you in writing your blog post for this week. As always you don't have to write about the answers to my questions; they are intended to help if you are stuck. Remember that your blog should be a running log of what you are learning and how the something that you are doing is progressing so writing about those things is just fine too. 

So.... by the time you get back from Spring Break, you should have at least four completed blog posts. Hope you have a safe and relaxing break!

Research

At this point everyone should have at least two blog posts: the first blog post should be your ideas for the "Do Something" Project while your second blog post should have outlined your ultimate goal.

Today you should begin research. What do you need to learn in order to reach your goal? What materials do you need for the project? How much do they cost? Who is going to be your mentor for the project? Do you know someone personally that can help you, or will you find an online mentor? How much time do you think that you will need to dedicate the project in order to reach your goal? All of these questions can be answered through research.

Your blog post today should include any relevant research that you do regarding your topic. Use your blog as a space to record your research. Make sure that you are keep a record of your sources as you will need to include this in your final presentation.

You should also include any progress that you have made toward reaching your goal.

Happy researching :-), and let me know what I can do to help!
