1 - Reflection on Previous I Search Experiences (due Mon. April 7) 1. What are some of the previous research projects you have done? 2. Based on these projects, what does //research// mean to you? 3. Describe one of your research successes or failures. Why was the experience positive or negative?

1. I have researched labyrinths, Greek mythology, Louisiana History, and the Louisiana Peach Festival. 2. Research is very, very helpful in any project, even if you know a lot about a certain subject, you still need to research it. There's always something you don't know. 3. For our Festival Project in 7th grade, my friend Dani and I got the Louisiana Peach Festival. We had to research everything about the festival (activities, location, history, etc.) We had to make a bulliten board of our information. It was a success because we did a lot of reserch. We even sent an email to the camber of commerce and they sent us post cards, brochures, and t-shirts.

1. Describe how the pre-notetaking sheet helped you find both focus for your topic and research questions to investigate. Did you find it easy or difficult to create a fat question from your ideas?
 * 5 - Reflections on Pre-Notetaking - for homework (due Wednesday, April 9)**

- I think the inspiration thing did help to some extent, it didn't have to be in inspiration, but it helped me narrow down my ideas to just one broad topic. - It was really hard to think of fat questions because I wasn't sure if it was acctually a fat question. I had many that I thought were fat questions, then I was told that they were more of skinny questions. I got frustrated but I think I ended up finding one.
