Note Taking
Today I'm continuing my note taking. I also spoke with Sandi and we our discussing a date and time to meet next week. I'm really excited to meet with her and be able to talk to her about the mummified boy that's been found. She will also be helping me make my own mummified pigs. The idea is to create a mummy created Egyptian style and a mummy created Chinese style. I also told her if she has any suggestions about materials that we can use for the mummification and elbalming process to notify me.

Notes/Works Cited Page
Today I finished my works cited page. Then after I finished I continued to work on my note taking. I did manage to get started on my interview paper that I must fill out as a record of who I will be conducting my interview with. Hopefully I will be done with that by Friday, if not I will have it done over the weekend.

Works Cited Page
Today I will be working on my works cited page. I really haft to remember to start blogging everyday. Usually what I do is come into class and just get right to work because I already know what I haft to do for the week. I have been working on notes pretty much all of this week so I guess I wouldn't have much to blog about besides saying that I will continue to do note taking. But today I remembered to blog because were starting our works cited page, so usually when I get a new assignment I remember to blog for the first few days to keep it updated. But I forget to sometimes when were working on an assignment for a longer time period (notes for example). My works cited page should not take me long because I did everything I was suppose to do in my webliography. I will probably be adding more sources to my works cited page. I realized that a lot of the information for some of my sources is repetitive. So I think I'll be looking for a couple new sources that might have some information that I don't already have. The sources that I documented notes from will definitely be used in the paper. The one's that are not documented in my notes yet I either didn't get to or have decided not to use it.

Note Taking
Today I took notes. I think the note check is on friday so I should be half way done with my notes by then. Hopefully I'll be half way done because I dont want to get behind. So far I've been keeping up with the assignments.

Note Taking
Last Friday I was able to finish my proposal. So today will be a note taking day for me. I still have not heard back from the Carnegie Museum. If I don't hear back soon I'll probably try calling them to see if I can get in touch with someone there who might have some information.

Proposal
Today I will be working on my proposal. I think I skipped a day or two of blogging because I've been so wrapped up in my work I had forgotten about it. I think I have figured out my action plan which is to make a mummified pig or cat on my own with the supervision of my science teacher. I like the idea but I still like the idea of going on an actual excavation and being up close with an actual mummy. I think what I'll do is try and get in contact with someone at the Carnegie Museum and see if they can give me any information. I don't want to really go into my proposal until I know for sure what it is that I want to do for my action plan.

Proposal
Today I will begin working on my proposal for the first half of class. Then I will continue my note taking for the second half. I'm not for certain exactly what I'm going to do for my tangible product. When I met with Ms. King I got a few idea's but not for sure which one to go with. I would like to go on a dig and have it captured on film but I'm not sure of all the necessary steps I would have to go through. And trying to think months in advance can sometimes be complicated because you never know what set backs may occur.

Note Taking
I'm still working on my notes today. This is one of the longer assignments because there is a lot of reading, highlighting, and note taking involved. Hopefully I'll be able to get it done in a timely fashion.
