My Ted Talk Experience

At the beginning of may we got assigned a project. It was to make a 5 minute Ted like Talk to share with the whole class at the end of the month. We were allowed to pick whatever topic we wanted and we also were allowed to bring in props when we presented in class.

My experience of making a Ted like Talk was really fun and exciting. I did my talk about the history of Nike. I researched about the history of Nike and I learned so many new things about Nike that I didn’t know before I started. This topic is important to me because I really enjoy finding out so much new stuff about a brand and I am very interested in brands and how they came to be. If you ever want to do a Ted like Talk I suggest doing it about a topic you really enjoy and are passionate about. If you want any helpful tips I suggest reading the book Thank You For Coming To MY TED Talk, by Chris Anderson. It has many helpful tips about public speaking and more. Overall, my experience of doing a talk like this was really really fun.

My Experience at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences

When the 6th grade went to The Museum of Natural Sciences on 1/27/23 in Raleigh, North Carolina. It was a lot of fun. The museum was four floors and it had many exhibits. The main focus was the RACE exhibit. The RACE exhibit had a lot of info about culture in race, how race changed the world, and lots more. The other exhibits they had were, a small space exhibit, birds & reptiles & small land animals, ocean creatures, insects, and a little exhibit for dinosaurs, they also had a really cool 3D printing lab and you got to touch the 3D prints they made. There were also many more exhibits. My favorite exhibit was probably the 3D print lab and the dinosaurs. In the 3D print lab there were 3D printers running and you could ask the people that were there all about it and how it’s made. Also, in the lab there were little monitors with interactive things. In the dinosaur exhibit there were fossils and replicas from the dinosaurs. It was a lot of fun.
