Learning Adventure Blog#1

So far doing this learning adventure, i have learned some interesting facts, about a place i have lived my whole life, where i have been multiple times, it blows me away, that i have lived here my whole life, and had no idea how, or why the pike place market, was built/started. Now that i have started acquiring more knowledge about the pike place market, i have become more interested in it than i ever have been before. I love the pike place market, but honestly i knew nothing. That's why this learning adventure was such a cool idea. Because even after this learning adventure assignment is complete i think i am going to pursue my interest in the market and continue learning more about Seattle's unknown history.

La blog #1 THE PLAN (edited)

My plan so far, is to do a good amount of research, before i take my trip to downtown Seattle, to do my interview questions. I will take pictures, and be prepared to answer questions, about how the pike place market came about, why, and how , and why did it change from a regular downtown market, to housing, and becoming Seattle's most popular tourist attraction aside the Seattle space needle. These questions are my priority, and will make my project unique. This project is very interesting to me, because i have always been interested , and loved the Pike place market. Success in this learning adventure, will be when i become able to answer all of the questions above, and then some. MY pathway to success Will be me using the resources around me, my grandma, my friends, people at the market, Internet, and hands on experience myself. Using all of the listed resources i will be able to funnel all of this amazing information, into the questions above, and learn extra information to share with the class.

proposal revised!!

Now i have revised my proposal, from installing two radiator fans, to learning, and understanding the history, and the main attractions of the pike place market in downtown Seattle. I want to learn from which point did it go from being a market to a full blown tourist attraction, or has it always been this way. All these questions i soon hope to have answers for, and i will take a field trip, and possibly interview, people , and ask what brings them to the pike place market.
