    The students chose to do their project on Daniel Boone because they enjoyed the outdoors and were inspired by his exploration of nature. They researched Boone by taking notes from websites and library books. Rather than writing a paper, which neither student was good at, they decided to create a website about Boone since it would be more engaging than a display board. Their topic fits the National History Day theme of exploration, encounter, and exchange well because Boone frequently encountered wildlife, Native Americans, and exchanged goods when negotiating with tribes.
