This is my reflection about the project that we have been doing for the entire school year Health in the long run. First we started by researching the different things like UNICEF, and Macro/Micro Nutrients. We all created a SWAY about the topics and shared the info to the class. Then we had 2 quizzes in between there were we learned about nutrients and the effects of not eating enough of them. We then started to work on a new sway where we converted all the information to 1 SWAY and we started researching new information to add to the SWAY. During those 2/3 weeks that we were working on the new SWAY we had to create blogs to describe what we did, accomplished, how we did it, and what were things we failed, and how to fix them. From there we advertised the project by doing lunch announcements, 6th,7th,and 8th grade announcements during the hall meetings. We also put up posters that students created in groups showing unique things that we did and learned in our project and had a URL to our SWAY and Instagram account that could  give them fun facts about health. We also did something called the ten day challenge which was were papers were given out to each table in the lunch room and at the end of lunch people would fill there paper out to show how many servings of protein, grains, dairy, dessert, vegetables, and fruit that the table hat ate that day. I liked this challenge and I observed that many tables had enjoyed this challenge and ate healthier for the entirety of the challenge.I think that during the ten day challenge that I ate better than I usually do, and I ate more fruits and vegetable which I usually never eat.  I do not think that the slogan challenge worked the way we would have liked it because only a few people made a slogan which narrowed the choices we had to pick from. Finally we created a blog to reflect upon the project to see what we accomplished and what could we have improved on. In conclusion I think that this project completed what its goal was to make people more aware of what they are eating  and eating healthier.
