Investigation Reflection

I would say that I probably diserve 3-4 because my slide is very organized. So far I have been doing very good on my project. On my project I have tried to do the best slideshow that I have so far in my middle school year. I also have been trieng to make my slides very specific and with very good details to every single one of my slides.

Day 3 comparison

Measurements	SCORE (1-5)
Simplicity	5
Themes	4
Music	0

I put simplicity a five because I think it was really good. But that is just my opinion. I think that it deserves a five because it was very organized to me. I also think that it should also be a five because it was very well written.

            I gave the theme a two because if I actually wanted to do better I could have done very good. I gave that grade because it was alright but nothing out of this world.

            I gave it a zero because their was no music. If this was mine I would have put good music.
