Discovery
I recently had a gallery walk in my class room and during this gallery walk that preaented posters on the history of Corpus Christi two of the many caught my eyes. The first one to catch my eye was the history of LBGT that is an organization that dates way back in Corpus Christi that still today is struggling with discrimination of gays today. The exhibit board made was very coloful and informative and intresting to know that today we have marches in support of gay marrige which I had never heard of tell now.Another exhibit board that caught my eye was the Orphanges of Corpus Christi becuase first I did not know we had orphanages here and that we have had more than one for a long time which was surprising to me. These orphanges are important to the history of Corpus Christi when it came to children been abandoned during the wars we fought in and children whos parents were unstable. I just discovered we had orphanages and theres one on staples. These two exhibt boards I picked were choosen on the fact that I had no prior knowledge on them.

The project was overall fun learning things that I did not already know about the Corpus Police Department and of the other students projects. I got to collect a lot of information of the growth on the Police Department dating back to the 1800's to the Police Department today. It learned that with improvements the system of the Police Department got better.It was nice knowing that just because I ran into one obstacle I was able to overcome it with my back up plan.In refrence to others projects the student that did the thunder bird in it was intresting learning that it under went many changes and even changed its name and was located where now it is a fle market on lropard. That came to a shock to me that we had a drive in like that. Along with another student who did Bayfeast because they were a non profit organization that helped other organization's eithin the community not getting anything in return.They had a lot of famous entertainers preform. This was a part of history up until viloence was reacurring within and not enough money. So to conclude overall i learned a lot I didnt know of Corpus and Im glad I did.
