This is the link to my narrative.
2. What advice do you have to someone else who is creating a mental map and writing a narrative about it?
If I were you, I would make sure to pay attention to your surroundings when you are driving to and from school. It is very helpful when you don't just have to put a cloud over part of your map.

If I had time, I would put more detail on my house, and possibly add my dogs. I would also like to draw kids being dropped off for school.

I used the key with anything that needed to be clarified, and I drew my map with detail from my drive to and from school. I also got my work done earlier, and then got to spend more time on my portfolio.

2. What was the most challenging component of this assignment?

I feel like I really utilized our independent work time that we had during this project. I got so much work done, and I never got behind or bogged down from the work we had.
2. High Quality Work is a pillar of academic success at Anser. How does your report show your knowledge of your topic and high quality work?
I believe that this report shows my knowledge of this topic because I did quite a lot of research beforehand, and I learned so much about different categories of sustainability in East Asia.
3. What would you add if you had more time?
If I had more time, I would put more visual effects in my presentation, because I'm not sure there is that much more information I would need to add.

If I could tell myself something at the beginning of this project, it would be "make sure to check many sources and make sure that all of your sources are reliable."

If I had more time, I would actually make the tea.

Cleopatra's legacy was how she ruled Egypt with a firm but kind hand, and she cared dearly for her subjects.
For my final exhibition night project, I chose to do three things on my tri-fold. These were a research project I did on Pad Se Ew, my solutonary project (which you can find more about on my Justice page), and my Sustainability in East Asia presentation. The exhibition night went really well for me, aside from some technical difficulties.
