The student enjoyed researching ancient Greece and found the structure of their society particularly interesting to learn about. They discovered that men and women had distinct roles, with men able to do more. While the student proudly completed their report and archaeology presentation, they found it difficult to find information about clothing and jewelry from ancient Greece. Overall, the student felt they improved their writing and public speaking skills through this project.

1. Ancient Civilizations Reflection
My Civilization: Ancient Greece
The Research Journey:
My favorite part of the research journey was to find the
information becauseI enjoyed watching videos and learning a lot
about the civilizations rather then just knowing that it existed
in the ancient times.My best research question was about “the
structure of society” because I have learned a lot about it and
also I did a lot of research on it.While doing my research, I found
it difficult to learn about the clothes because it was hard to find
information about it and also it was hard to find information
about the jewellery as they didn’t have much information
about it.The most interesting thing I learned about the structure
of society was that men and women had different roles in society
because men could do almost anything and girls could not.I
think thateach civilization had many important legacies
because we wouldn’t have the Olympics if it weren’t for the
ancient Greeks and we wouldn’t have printing if it weren’t for
the ancient Chinese.
Report Writing
I am proud of my report because I worked really hard on it.
While writing the report, I became better at writing paragraphs
and compostions as I used to be not good at this.If I wrote it again,
I would improve my report by doing what I could to put in more
details.
Archeology Presentation
I enjoyed making my artifacts because we got to paint and
create stuff out of clay.I found it difficult to get the artifacts to
look ancient because once I made them them they kind of looked
brand new.I am most proud of my wax board artifact because I
am really scared of fire but Ms. Chong Chong helped me.

2. I enjoyed the archeology presentation because it was fun and I
said my speech in front of my mother and I was really shy.I
found it difficult to talk about clothing because I didn’t have
much information about.While preparing for this presentation,
I became better at speaking verbally and memorizing the
speech.
What else?
During this unit I especially enjoyed making the report because
I felt like I was in Grade 6.I took extra time to find the
information as I wanted to make my research interesting.After
this unit, I might continue to try to write reports like this.
