Endeavour is a long-term project that you can pick to do all through the year for my endeavour was birds. For my endeavour I made three bird boxes, bird food, a sway, a book creator, a photo album of what I’ve done for my endeavour and what I’ve saw, a scrap book with photos I printed out and writing to explain about the photos.
When I was doing endeavour I had a lot of problems to overcome like making my sway, getting photos for my book creator, measuring the right size for my bird box, figuring out how to layout my stuff at the endeavour fair, how I was going to finish everything in time for the endeavour fair.
The skills I learnt through my endeavour is how to blog, how to make a sway, how to make a book creator, how to manage my time, patience, how to build bird houses, how to do a good layout, how to give a report.
My endeavour is ambitious because I didn’t know a thing about birds. Also because I planned to do a lot of things that are very challenging like building a bird box but instead of building one I built three, I also planned to make a sway all about migration, to make a book creator that related to everything in my endeavour, to learn all about bird anatomy, and share my learning with others.
A lot of people kindly helped me with my endeavour like David wood who was a big help he gave me tones of great facts about bird migration and he told me about what they do at work and why they do it. Mrs Macintyre was also a big help because she let me come into the nursery and do the bird watch with everyone.
At the endeavour fair you have to share your learning with others. When people came to my stall they asked me a lot of questions like why I chose birds as my endeavour, what I have done for it and they just asked me about the birds and other questions. I am very pleased with my endeavour and what I’ve achieved throughout endeavour.
