This year I became more persistent. When I came to this school I wasn't used to making more than 2 drafts on something. Then later in the school year I was told that I had to do the storybook project and that is when I realized that just wouldn't cut. I had to make at least 3 drafts for every image. In the beginning I made a lot of drafts because I was not experienced in using watercolor. I didn't know how to properly use a brush and how much water to use when painting. Then later in the project I became used to making multiple drafts that had been made with the right water coloring techniques. From this project I learned that by making multiple drafts I was actually helping myself instead of putting a burden on me. I also learned that if you want something good you are going to have to put a lot of hard work and effort into it.

Below are my projects in 7th grade at STEM.
