Project Title: Renaissance Ball Project

Class: CD Date: June 6, 2008


PURPOSE: In this section, explain what you were supposed to learn and what you were supposed to do.

The purpose of this project was to learn about a person from the Renaissance. My person was Michelangelo Buonarroti. In order to learn about Michelangelo Buonarroti, I had to research about Michelangelo and write a 3 to 5 page biography about him with a bibliography. We also performed the Pavan which is a dance from the Renaissance. We also had to get 10 signatures from people that learned about our Renaissance person.

WHAT I LEARNED
In this section, tell what information or skills you learned or improved.

I learned about Michelangelo Buonarroti and what he created. I learned that he is the sculptor of the statue of David. I also learned that he is the painter of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. I learned about his childhoods and his many creations. I also learned about other people during the Renaissance Ball. I also learned that Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci are rivals.

REFLECTION
In this section, reflect on your experience. Did you like the project? Why or why not? How did you do? What would you do differently next time?

I feel like I could have done better on this project because I know I could have added a lot more information in my biography and my power point. Next time, I would choose a person that I know a lot about so I can finish stuff early and have aloot more extra time to work on my other projects.

ARTIFACTS
You should have at least one artifact from each project on your DP. What document, picture, or link will you have for this project?

I will have my biography and my power point.
