====**Directions:** Whether you think Christopher Columbus is a hero or villain, or guilty or not guilty of crimes against humanity, what is known is that when he landed in the New World in 1492, the world changed forever. Please answer the following reflection questions __**on your wiki page**__ clearly and with details.====


 * 1) ====**Did your views of Columbus change during our study of Columbus? Why or Why not**? No, it did not. My views on him were that he was a bad man who ruined peoples lives. After studying about Christopher Columbus, my views on him have only been proven right.====
 * 2) ====**What is the most persuasive argument that supports your current perspective about Columbus?** The fact that he killed a whole human race is very important. He brought slavery to the new world and tortured the Natives and African Americans. He may not have directly done all these things, but he started the chain reaction that did it all. Christopher Columbus, in my opinion, is a Villain.====
 * 3) ====**Do you think it's important to learn different perspectives about people who we think are heroes? Why or Why not?** Yes, I think it is important because before you judge a person on their doings, you should see different view points people have on the Hero. You should see if they were fair to everyone or not. Perspectives are very important.====
 * 4) ====**How do you think you will use the idea of perspective as you continue learning history this year and in high school?** Next time we talk about heros, I can use these experiences as guidelines. I can try and look at the "hero" from different perspectives and hear everyones side of the story. The idea of perspectives should stick with us throughout life.====

= __Assignment 2__ = Now that you are finished with your Native American artifact investigation, I would like you to reflect on this assignment. Please answer the following questions clearly **on your wiki page**.
 * 1) **Explain** **one thing that you found most interesting or surprising while doing this assignment?** I found it interesting about how much we could figure out from such little clues. The activity was challenging but with hard work we figured out the answer.
 * 2) **Explain** **one thing you think you did well in this assignment?** My partner and I figured out what tribe goes to what region very well. Cooperation was really important in this activity.
 * 3) **Explain** **one thing you think you need to improve if you were to do another assignment like this?** I think I should have written my Journal Entries a little bit more organized and I should've made my work much more neater. I should've also put in more detail to my answers.
 * 4) **Why do you think you did this assignment and how did it help you develop one of the competencies?** This activity challenged our problem solving skill. It was very fun and tricky at the same time. I think we did this activity to learn more about the First Americans as well as develop new skills.
