Process Paper Questions

1) Question: How did you choose your topic and how does it relate to the annual theme?

Answer: We chose our topic, "How the Statue of Liberty has a connection to Vermont" because we thought how the Statue of Liberty almost came to a small town like West Glover and we came across sources about the connection between the Statue of Liberty and Vermont. It relates to the annual theme because it was a debate about who should get the Statue of Liberty.

2) Question: How did you conduct your research?

Answer: We conducted our research by checking if our source was reliable, then we read the source and found a quote or we put the information into our own words.

3) Question: How did you create your project?

Answer: We created our project by making sure everything was thorough and then we pasted our sources and then just went page by page. Lastly we went over it with our group.

4) Question: What is your historical argument

Answer: Our historical argument is about the debate between New York City and West Glover to get the Statue of Liberty.

5) Question: In what ways is your topic significant in history
