This year I thought NHD went better then last years because I am more experienced and I know what to and not to do when choosing a partner and researching your topic! The theme this year was Actions & Legacies, which I thought was easier because all you have to do is explain what the person did and what were they famous for. Me and Briana chose do an exhibit on Elizabeth Eckford because Mr. Ackerman talked about The Little Rock Nine and we were both curious to learn more about what she accomplished which was desegregating schools.
When the judges came to judge us, I was a little nervous because they looked intimidating and mean, but once they came over to our station I was ready to explain what we have accomplished and the nervousness simply turned into confidence. I thought we did well but then our tape recorder was coming off right in the midst of us explaining our board.
Overall I enjoyed NHD more than I did in ninth grade because I thought the theme was not as hard as I thought it would be and I felt confident in what we accomplished as a team.
