Socials 9 Museum Presentation

This is my museum project for my grade 9 Socials Study class. We had to research a first nations group around Canada and parts of the US. My first nation was the Iqaluit first nations in Nunavut. I choose this group because it had many well designed artifacts. The artifacts represented a part of a history of the Iqaluit first nations.  My goals at the beginning was to have 13 artifacts and four rooms for my museum. I am proud that I was able to sort each artifact and order them nicely by their author. I was also able to prepare a brief description for each of the authors. I also liked how I presented the project I was able to look at the audience while speaking. A challenge that I faced while doing my project was doing the research and find enough information about the artifacts. However, I over came the challenge by also researching the artifact’s author and adding that information. If I did this project again I would stick to my goal of having 13 artifacts. At the end I only had 10 artifacts and 3 tools. Next time I will try to only have artifacts and not tools, so my museum’s subject is not too broad.
