1. Topic: 2. Why you chose it: 3. What you already know about your topic

My topic is Ancient food

I chose this topic because it is something i really didn't know much about. And we learned a little in class about that they ate parrots and salted jellyfish, but i wanted to know more.

I don't really know much but i know that there is Chinese, Greek food, Italian, and alot more.

8 points Be sure to put the correct heading on your entries. You will need to narrow your topic to a certain area or time period.

 * 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?**

The pre-notetaking sheet helped me to find a focus for my topic because it helped me to orginize my thoughts and realize why I really was intrested in this topic. I think that it was challenging to create a fat question from my ideas. But once i narrowed my topic down and researched alot it was easier to understand and come up with a fat question.
