Week 7

We have been working very well we have been sharing information and working really hard. We are doing very well at collaborating productively and expressing our ideas creatively. We need to work on managing projects effectively because there are a couple members in our group who are very far behind. Pretty much everyone has finished their note cards and is working on or has completed their outline. We are now all working on our political art pieces, our storyboards and on answering our guiding questions. We were somewhat successful. Because we only finished one of our storyboards and everyone is still working on their guiding questions. I have learned that the German farmers life’s changed a lot in this time period from emigrating to the united states or from textile factories being made.
I have 2 questions going forward.
The first one is what is anti-semitism?
The second one is what was the unification of the German empire?

Week 6

Our group is all caught up now. Everyone has now finished their map reflections.
Mostly everyone is done with their note cards. We have started step 7, which is to write guiding questions, so we are right on track. We have been very successful because we have helped each other out and listened to each other’s suggestions. I learned that working as a team really helps a lot. Because you can get a lot more work done. If we keep up like this I’m sure we will not fall behind again.

Week 5

The last week for our group has gone very well. Everyone in my group has finished their map. Now my group members are working on their map reflections and note cards, so we are all caught up which is good. Me and my group members were very successful because we stayed on task and got our work done. There is one person in our group who i think still has to finnish his map , but everyone else is done. Every ounce in a while one of my group members does something there not suppose but not as much now as there use to be of group mebers playing around. I think the most significant thing I learned last week was if you work together equally and divide up the work and help group members who need it you can accomplish a lot.

Week4

So far our group has been doing fine. We are all caught up. I was really concerned because we had to do our profile map over again so we were falling behind, but we ended up last week finishing our timeline and we all started on our maps. We are now working on finishing our maps up so we are where were suppose to be. Yes we have been successful because we went from being behind to being right on task. The most significant thing I learned last week is if you work hard you get your work done on time and keep on track.
