This assignment is about the ancestry of Hawaiian honeycreepers. I was to choose a species of honeycreeper bird, and write a news article that goes more in depth about the animal and how it got to exist. Some goals I had for this project were my understanding how the birds came to be, well, BIRDS! I really enjoyed looking at all the species that the 'Akeke'e was related to.
I chose this work sample because I feel like I put a decent amount of time and effort into completing and making this article look nice and have well informing words popping out. I enjoyed using canva, the website that I used to make this newspaper. It let me be creative in designing a school project which turned out pretty well if I do say so myself.
This work projects information skills because of the research I made on this bird. When completing this project I created a mindset for myself on how I was going to work through the time and create an excellently detailed newspaper! I made sure to use reliable resources and I memorized how to put references into APA format so I don't actually have to look it up every time I need to site my sources.
This project showed my current growth by displaying my maturity in layouts and writing advanced reports on the subject of biology. This shows my interests and abilities by the way I positioned all the letters and pictures. I'm really interested in biology, and I like learning about how cells & DNA work because I just find that stuff interesting especially when I have a good teacher to teach it!
Some things I could do better are probably make a couple more pages so that the overall article is more informative. If I had also done more research it might have contributed to the amount of detail in the paragraphs. All in all I'm proud of this projects and I am excited to do more projects just like this on in the near future.
