Did you know that 2.5 percent of people under the age of 18 are adopted?
Should Adoption Papers Be Open Rather Than Sealed?Sierra Adams-Smith
Research Open Adoption Papers Provide Original birth certificate Family background Medical history in the family and of the child Information about birth parents
Research Closed Adoption Papers Provide Birth parents can be anonymous No contact with the birth parents, the child and vise versa Very limited health and family information
Research Why adoption papers should be open Emotional effects (sadness, depression) Health Concerns (certain medical conditions) Right of the child (the child had the right to know their history)
Because I researched adoption, I made a children's book about adoption for my product.
Product Talk to mentor about product ideas Went to store to get materials (crayons, markers, paper) Looked at some adoption books online Brain storm ideas Talked to mentor about his adoption experience
Product Writing the book Dedication page Prologue Illustrations Edit story Write final copy of story Putting the book together in power point
Mentor Mr. Peake Brainstorming How to create the book Helped me understand how the adoption process might be for a kid. Eager to help and to create the story.
Challenges and Successes I would have made the story first Then illustration and research Take pictures as I go Getting the pictures onto power point I’ve made a story that people seem to like and enjoy Great reviews on the book My hard work is shown in the book
What I Learned Procrastination can set your goals back A big project has to be broken down into steps Writing a children’s book is not easy Coloring illustrations can take a long time if has a lot of detail
Thank you for your time. Do you have any questions?
