I wish upon a star!

I wish I had more time for this project. Of course, who doesn't. Every time I do a project I feel in order to do the subject justice, I need to study it for a year, at least! More time was not an option. My assignment, however, does have many strengths. The end project is creative and I enjoyed writing it. It was the first time I have ever written a poem, so guys go easy on it. The information I found was interesting and the books I read wonderful.

One of the weaknesses and challenges was time, as I have already mentioned. Also, it was hard to incorporate information into the poem. While I discussed earlier that a poem was good at conveying emotion, it is challenging to incorporate facts into poems. Next time I will definitely start earlier and research how to write a poem.

I feel my inquiry is very much like many of the inquiry experiences of those children who would come to the library. I remember as a student, my research took so many twists and turns, while my mind wondered. I remember making up stories about the information I had found. But I don't believe many students think to create stories or poems with their findings.
