I learned about Leon Batista Alberti who was a architect, Huminist, art theorist and. He was famous and mostly did facades (the front) of buildings. He rarely desighned whole buildings. His wife was named Isotta. Not only was he a professional architecture but he composed music in front of professional judjes and they enjoyed it. He was also a superb horseman and could do amazing things. He was also Italian. He was born in Genoa on Febuary 14, 1404. His family had special status and he belonged to a noble family. His father was Lorenzo Alberti and he was accountant. He was kicked out of his native city. He thought that a poor unfortunate man that is dedicated to what they do can achieve just as much glory as a rich person who is vary fortunate. I also learned about the reniassance as a whole too. I learned tthat the black death was a plague that swept one-third of europe's population. One of the main cities was Florence. The Rennisancee was a time when science and art flurished. It wasn't all about Religion. The Rennisance went on from the 1400's to the 1600's.

Sentence Starters
I enjoyed this project because…
I feel like I could have done better on this project because…
Next time, I would…

To me this was not the most fun project i have ever done.  It was more of a learning expferience.  The rennisance project is on the requirements for 7nth grade so i think we were just covering that.  The Povan was kind of fun.  I didn't fully understand the point of the Povan.  Next time i would plan my costume earlier because i found myself not having everthing that i wanted at the end.  I think i did well on the autobiography wich is the main part of the project but i havn' gotten my grade for the project yet : ( I enjoyed learning about Leon Batista Alberti and he is probably my idol in the professional life.  (architecture)

ARTIFACTS
You should have at least one artifact from each project on your DP. What document, picture, or link will you have for this project?
I will put on my Autobiography :)
