statement of process

while i was doing this project I had MAJOR difficulties let me just start off by saying that . i thought this project was a great learning experience .this project was based on everything i learned this year and i was able to do this project with out wanting to rip off my hair by just gathering one topic's information and just typing it out . and i did that for ever single post i did . later words i had to the the 3 most difficult things for me the bibliography; glossary; and this the statement of process . this project was a probably one of my most greatest ones yet because ms sackstien had let Me pick what this project was going to be about . i had chosen "Dred Scott" because i think he mad history in a good way and it has a major impact. i would say i could of done better on this project if i wouldn't have lagged so much while doing this project . but this was a great learning experience "]
