What would be a good idea for a history project??
Our term project this year for gr. 12 was to learn about an old task, that may have been passed down in your family or just something you’ve learned to do that isn’t really done commonly today such as using a washboard, or tieing fish hooks, making toffee, or showing how to use an old oil lamp were some of the ideas we were given.
but I get incredibly nervous when it comes to presenting, and i’m horrible at it, so what do you think would be some good ideas that may not involve much demonstration or time? lol.. i can’t come up with anything… thankss a bunch
shining shoes, maybe?
