Project Description: For this part of the project we painted in one of the pillars in the 9th grade commons. There are four pillars and they were about art and architecture, religion and society, science and technology, government. Everyone in our team painted in the pillar of what they wrote about in their research paper. For example, I wrote about the Minoan science and technology in my research paper. So I had to paint a picture representing the Minoan science and technology in the according pillar.
Process: First, I had to look at different pictures about Minoans and about things that related to Minoan Science and Technology. Then, I drew out what my picture would look like. Then, I had to get it approve by our teacher Charlotte in order to start painting. Then, I painted everything. At last, I wrote my name in the bottom.
Reflection: By painting this pillar I learned how to be able to show something with images or a drawings. For example, I showed Minoan science and technology by putting a battle ax. One challenge I encountered was trying to find how to represent science and technology because I couldn't think of anyway of representing for the painting. If I could paint my pillar again I would spend more time on it, because I rushed through it at the end. This will help me later when I have to get stuff done on time and do it well and when I have to manage my time so I don't have to rush things.
