history & english
For my history portion I researched the importance of moderate voters. For my english portion I researched how to write a research paper. I combined both elements of my project to strengthen my writing behind the paper I was writing. I spent majority of the allotted time organizing the paper, and reading into many opinions and perspectives of centrists. My look on the topic was the importance of moderates, and why candidates and politicians need to listen to those who advocate for middle ground. I wanted to emphasize the intolerance to extreme leftists and conservatives. Those who are so far on either side of the spectrum make those who aren't well versed on politics, want to stay out of it. I used the thinking skill of reasoning by sharing all the reasons of importance, and by explaining the reasoning behind moderate thinking. Unfortunately, I didn't finish the paper for this project, but made headway towards finishing it.

Leftists are represented by the color blue, while more conservative people are considered to be a part of the red party. In order to represent the centrists, I obviously chose purple. I gathered my color swatches from Pantone to organize a logo, and used Mona Lisa and the representative for the party. I looked into to reasoning of the Mona Lisa and the color choice symbolism to construct a very thought out project. After using an iPad program to build the whole project, I then wrote the reasoning of each color placement and choice.
