 Happy Monday! Today in class we worked on our min projects. I chose Daisy as my character. I finished thinking of all the items you'd find in her trashcan and why. I also started my presentation. I'm going to finish it by the end of tomorrow. Doing this project is helping me think more deeply of the characters. Have a nice day!
