       Throughout my project i faced challenges that made it hard for me. On my research paper i did not know how to put everything together so it would make sense. I do not feel comfortable asking for help but i asked Ms. Mitchell and my family to help with it. I was having a hard time finding a primary source to use for my paper. I asked one of my peer from the class and i found one right away. I feel more comfortable asking people for help when i need it because its easier than just stressing about not being able to do it myself.
       I faced some challenges doing my physical party of my project, which was taking care of children who were adopted by a family member of their family. I was shy at first with the teenagers and did not want to talk to them. I talked to them and they actually opened up to me about their personal life. Another challenge was learning how to communicate with the younger children. I talked to them in a way they would understand but still know that i was in charge not them. I was able to open up to both teenagers and younger children and be able to listen to them and try to give them advice if they needed it.
       I feel like i did grow as a person after this a lot. Personally because i can now open up to people that i feel i can trust and ask for help when i need it. Socially because i can communicate and work with people easier. Team work is easy for me because i am able to see every person's view point about something. I can now talk in front of a group of people and not be shy. I was able to get all the kids and be able to dance a routine in front of their guardians. Intellectually because i learned how to be more patient with people ad maintain a good attitude.
