Reflection:
What did you enjoy most about this project?
I enjoyed learning about the Paleogene period and that how the Himalayan mountains formed. The most intereting information was that the birds were larger than horses in size.
What was most challenging about this project? Why?
The most challenging part was to learn about the three epochs and their characteristics.
What you would change about this project and why?
I would change this project by learning about each era not just learning about one period.
What are 3 things that you learned from this project?
I learned about
- Himalayan mountains formation
- weather changing from hot to cold
- birds were larger than the horses in size
