My topic is the Leadership and Legacy of William Wilberforce. I chose this topic
because I as curious about slavery in abroad countries. Throughout the previous grades e
e!plored ho slavery ended in the "nited #ates. I ould go to different historical sites about
slavery in $eorgia and be ama%ed at the slavery movement here but& I still ondered about
slavery else here. 'efore I chose my topic& I vie ed a movie called Ama%ing $race about
William Wilberforce efforts to end slavery hich inspired me to choose him.
(irst& I conducted research by reading a boo) called The Life of William Wilberforce by
his sons. The boo) is a biography of William Wilberforce. *e!t& I atched the movie Amazing Grace to get a visual perspective on Mr. Wilberforce+s or) and too) notes. After& I bro sed the
internet for timelines of William Wilberforce. Then& I made an outline on all the information I
collected and rote a summary of the information. While I as on Than)sgiving 'rea) I found
documents and pictures of,on William Wilberforce and saved them to my computer. Lastly I
started to plan out my ebsite so I ouldn+t have to do it last minute.
I selected the presentation category by thin)ing about hich pro-ect I ould en-oy more
and that happened to be the ebsite. I am addicted to technology and I am s)illed in using it for
different tas). I created the pro-ect by using Weebly. I anted my design to loo) older and li)e a
des) and a paper ready to be signed on the des). *e!t& I typed up an outline of the tabs on the
ebsite and selected the fonts that I thought loo)ed best. Then I added all the pictures to my
ebsite and typed up )ey information about William Wilberforce and his effort to abolish
slavery. (inally& I put the finishing touches on my ebsite.
