This week I made a PowerPoint presentation of my 20% time topic. I included slides for parts of the brain and their functions, mindfulness, 10 ways to be more positive, effects of mindfulness, and the mindfulness activity. I don't have any more questions, but a challenge I have come across is trying not to fill the PowerPoint with too much information. Next week, I will try to take some information out and memorize it, and fine-tune the mindfulness activity.

https://www.shopify.ca/blog/start-online-tshirt-business This week I read, "How to Start an Online T-Shirt Business: Everything You Need to Know." This article is about creating a unique, low-investment, and successful t-shirt brand, not just business. Some factors going into this process are finding a specific niche/target customers to sell to, original designs, quality material, a strong brand that connects to the niche, and deciding on inventory options. The article also talks about the printing options for the shirts, and advertising through apps and social media. I was interested in reading this article because I wanted to know how t-shirt companies can be unique, and what went into creating one. Overall, this article would be very helpful for someone thinking about creating an online t-shirt company, not knowing where to start.

This week I pulled some ideas together in order to create a mindfulness activity. In AP English Language this year, my class has been practicing a mindfulness activity every week. I used some ideas from these short meditation activities, and brainstormed a list to be able to include in an activity of my own. I have some questions about how to record this activity, but I have a pretty good understanding of what to include in it. A challenge I have come across is deciding what program to use to record an activity. My goals for next week are to record the activity, or create a poster of the brain.
