2. Project Description: What was the Hero in My Eyes project? Use your own words to describe it. the hero in my eyes project was about finding someone that you thought was historical but it had to be someone close to you

3. Process: What steps did you take to get to the final product? (Be honest about meeting or not meeting deadlines and how that affected the process.) it took alot of work to make questions for my mom that broke down to my essey wich was just a description of my hero in the act.

4. Reflection: What did you learn? What challenges did you encounter? What would you do the same or different? How will this help you later? i learned that a hero was somthing that really was opinionated wich means no one can tell you who your hero is.challenges i encounterd were making vallid questions. somthing i would do differnt would be getting more information.im not really sure how this will help me later.

origin of zero


What strikes me is how it explains something that is not really their, but in actuality it is there but just used as a place holder. How i decide who discovers what is some one that has studied something for a long amount of time i feel they know what they are doing and since every one to this day still uses the same technique. The zero comes from Sumerian Mesopotamia 5,000 years ago.The person who came up with the concept discovers how to use it there for the person who discovered it but didn't know how to use it makes the whole number and y they discovered it useless.
