Spanish DP Update Reflection

Saige Hanson- Fogarty

What did you like about this project?

I liked that everyone got to research a little about Guatemala and it’s different aspects.
But before all of that everyone got to pick their first choice of what they wanted to answer and
research. During this project, I learned so many interesting things. I never knew that there are
different languages that are spoken. I also didn’t know the different animals that are there. When
I was researching there were so many different unique animals.

What was the most difficult part?

For me, the most difficult part was sharing my slideshow even though I was all prepared
and knew what I was going to say it was just really difficult. Even though we did it in small
groups which I am comfortable about I think it was the speaking. I am dyslexic so for me
sharing stuff in front of groups especially in different languages is really difficult. I think it is
also an insecure thing because I don’t want someone to say something to me if I mess up a word.
But through this project, I learned so much about my specific questions about Guatemala and
through my other group members.

What would you like to learn more about?

I​f this project was going to get done again, I would want to learn about how they live and
maneuver with only having to live on one dollar a day. I also wish we could have learned some
of the different towns in Guatemala. There could be so many more aspects of living in
Guatemala or live in Guatemala and I wish I was able to explore more into it. If this project was
going to get done again I think you should add like a game at the end that each group creates or
has a storyline behind all of it.
