This project was for Spanish class and for this project everyone got to decide their group of 5 and each group was also assigned a country in central and south America. I wanted Argentina but we got Paraguay and it turned out it was really quite interesting. This project was a very big project that took over a week in your group of 5 each person was to either focus on one of these 5. Health and Wellbeing, Geography and Climate, Arts and culture, Food and entertainment ,and Current events and issues. The one I had was Current events and issue's and I was pretty intrigued in it since it was interesting after you started to researched about it. Everyone also had to use quite a bit of Spanish vocabulary and terms. Decorando la sala de clase con cultura! Which means Decorating the classroom with culture!
The main 21st century skill I used was Global awareness since this project was learning about Panama's culture and giving a surrounded feeling on what it is like in Panama. The project also made us think about the issues and problem's in Panama. Panama has a problem with to many immigrants dying as they try to get to the U.S so, it really makes you think. Another 21st century skill I used was communication skill since this project included a lot of teamwork and you had work together out of school to get a high grade. My group and I worked hard after school and each member portrayed there own skills, giving idea's and portraying there own thought process.

In this assignment I am most proud of the total amazingness of how much work we got done and how well the final project looked art the end. I was very thankful to be in such a artistic group that contributed their part and helped everyone create such a good project. The most difficult thing in this project was finding multiple issues since in this project, I researched news and the main issue after and after was immigrants dying and immigrant control. If I redid this project next time I would rehearse more about giving my presentation since it could have been more smoother since some of the Spanish words were a little tricky.
In the past we did a lot of research on certain people in Hawaiian culture and this project made me think of that project since it also was included with a lot of teamwork and self research. For future learning I will remember that it doesn't hurt to get right in and talk with your group making sure all ideas are heard and I will also work on a few presenting skills especially.
