Research

          When I hear the word, research, I think of a school. The steps of doing research is, first, to pick/have a topic and decide what you are trying to accomplish like an essay or model. Then you gather the appropriate information needed to create the final product. Dictionaries, Encyclopedias,  and the internet are the most common sources for information. In the past, I had to research the dust bowl years, and then create a poster that shows what it is like to live during those years, in the dust bowl states.The positive thing about researching the dust bowl is that I had no clue what they were and they interesting. I now know more about the dust bowl years and U.S.A's history than I did before. The negative is that it a lot of time. I couldn't find personal experience easily only a couple websites had personal experiences. The final product was a poster with picture of the before and after the storm. I also had a fictional person telling the story of how a dust storms feels while in one and also what the years was like for that person.
