Hero Project Timeline By Emily Kech Jan 5, 2012 We were assigned the hero project. We were assigned the hero project. I initially thought about doing Isaac T. Hopper, the founder of the Underground Railroad. Jan 6, 2012 Karla and I talked about who we might choose to research while eating at Genghis Grill. Jan 7, 2012 I saw a documentary on Bill Gates with my parents, and I decided that I wanted to read about him. Jan 10, 2012 I got postrous and timetoast accounts, and I began my research. Jan 12, 2012 I started looking for a book on Bill Gates, but I couldn't find any at either library. Jan 14, 2012 I went to two bookstores with my mom, and I still couldn't find an interesting book! Jan 14, 2012 I came home and talked to my dad about choosing a new hero, and he showed me a book on Sam Walton, the founder of Wal-Mart. Jan 15, 2012 I started reading the book about Sam Walton, and I really liked it. Jan 18, 2012 Finished my first blog post for tomorrow! Jan 20, 2012 I read my book during DEAR and got really into it. Jan 22, 2012 I talked with my dad about interviewing him, and he said yes! Jan 24, 2012 I talked with some of my friends about ideas for our essay! Jan 28, 2012 I read 3 chapters of my book today!
