4. Problems We Had To Overcome
(1.)Time Constrant Our team members are all six graders, therefore we don’t have much time after school because most of us have to go to cram school or learn other talents after school. Moreover, what confuses us most is that we had the long winter vacation and Chinese New Year during the study. Although we can take a rest, it means that we have less time to work on the project. Due to time constrant, we still went to school to work on the project during winter vacation. In addition, our team members are from two different classes, we need to work on different things of the project and then discuss relative problem during the lunch break. (2.)Techniques for Communication and Interview Because it was our first interview experience, every teammember was pretty shy and nervous. We might go blank and forgot what to ask during the interview although we’ve already collected much information and designed questions for the interview. There is still much for us to work on it but we are getting progress little by little. (3.)Data Collection and Writing Because the data collecting procress was quite complicated, we needed to spend much time and effort to sort up the collected data. During the process, we knew about the insufficence of our writing ability and therefore we edited our writing time after time and we also learned much from it.

5. Our Project Sound Bite
We are very lucky to have the chance to take part in the project study. Among these days,we learned much about the ecology conversation. We would never know how broad the world is and how much we need to learn if we didn’t step out the classroom. Although there’s bitternees, and sacrifice of our leisure time during the study, we really learned a lot about the importance of ecology conservation. We would like to express our profound gratitue to Pagu Mt. Environmental Conservation Organization. We can not insist to the complication of the project without the help of the organization and the encouragement and support of everyone. We hope that our efforts of the project can help more people know about the importance of ecology education and therefore protect the Nature.
