In social studies we have been working on this humongo project. It is for a competition called National History Day. Students make a project (a exhibet, website, documentary, a paper or others) that connects with the theme. The theme this year is Innovations in History, or something like that. My teacher said that we could chose whatever topic we wanted as long as in related to the theme. We could also work with partners if we wanted. I decided to work with a partner and our topic is the ice cream cone. For our project we made a website. We are not done with it yet but if I must say, it is pretty awesome. The site is http://www.icekreamkone.weebly.com/ if you would like to visit it.
The project is huge! We had to have at least 10 primary and 10 secondary sources. That is alot of sources! For those of you who don't know the difference between a primary and a secondary source, a primary source is basiccly something right from the horses mouth. It came directly from the inventor. A secondary source is something written by someone who wasn't there when the event happened. Please visit our website!
