Space Travelers

For this Action Project, we had to create a game. We had to do many other things like making a slide show and a video of the game but the main thing was the game. For me and my group, this project went very well for us. I also really enjoyed working on this because it was a different experience for me. Even though this was a group project I feel like it was a lot more work but it was fun to work on.   I talked a lot about the game and the rules. We made a video of the how to play and a slideshow of our process we went through to make the game below. The video is at the end of the slideshow which explains a lot about our game.       

Shooting Donations

Hunger happens all around the world. Even though hunger is not violent, it's still a type of violence. Hunger is structural violence because many people are don’t have food and starve. Structural violence is people getting their basic needs met but when they don't get food there not getting their needs met. Statistics show that one in eight people on the earth goes to sleep hungry. There are many things that cause hunger but the main causes are poverty, not a lot of investment in agriculture, and weather/ climate. If I put myself on the Ladder of Tolerance (a tool that is used to see two groups position on an issue), I would be at Mutual Learner because I'm higher than awareness because I’m giving to the hunger cause. Other people I know would be at awareness because they’re exposed to it, but they are not doing anything to help starving people around the world. People usually don't give homeless people money because they think they’re going to use it for something ot...

Oscars journey

PA Global peace SH 21 December 2018 The Activism of Oscar Zeta Caiaphas told the other Jewish leaders when they were talking about crucifying Jesus on the cross, “It's better that one man should die for the people” (John 18:14 American King James). This is important because Oscar Zeta Acosta said something along the same lines. Oscar Zeta Acosta once said, “Life is not as it seems, Life is pride and personal history. Thus it is better that one die and that the people should live, rather than one live and the people should die”(Goodreads). This quote means that people are self-absorbed about history, but people should live for others. This quote is important because it shows how he says we focused on us, our history, and our lives, and we don't care for others as much as we should. Oscar Zeta Acosta fought for equal rights for Mexican Americans. Oscar Zeta Acosta was born on April 8, 1935, in El Paso, Texas. He was an American attorney, politician, novelist and a...

The Hero's journey for spider man and Mario

Hi, my name is PA. The class this Action Project is for my class called Stories. In Stories, we learn about many things like punctuation, different types of stories, sentence structures, etc. For this Action Project, we have to choose a fictional hero and a real hero for us. For my fictional hero, I picked Spiderman. I picked Spiderman because he's my favorite hero. His superpowers are super cool and his suit. After finding a fictional hero I had to find a real hero to me. I realized that I have no real heroes in my life so I thought of someone that was important in my family. I think the most important family member is Mario, my great grandpa. He did so much in his life and has a crazy story to tell. I interviewed my great grandpa and learned so many things I never knew about him. Doing this project got me closer to him and got me asking myself more questions.  Here is my action project.  FICTIONAL: SPIDERMAN Call to adventure : Spiderman call to adventure is when h...

The Cheetah

Image
Hi, for this Action Project we had to pick an animal and I picked a cheetah. We had to find a conection between our animals and humans. When I found the connection between a human and a cheetah i was shoked because I thought it was the other way around. At first I thought I was going to hate this Action Project and I really wanted to take the test instead but after doing this I really enjoyed doing this Action Project.  I think this AP really wrapped up the whole class and what the class is about.

PAs Pyramid

Hi, my name is PA and the class this Action Project is for is called Prove it or lose. Prove it or lose it is a class about proving math problems and having different strategies to solve problems. For this Action Project, we worked on Pascals Triangle and Combinations and we had to explain each of them. I gave an example and showed how to solve it as well. I think this project was alright. It taught me a couple things but if I could redo this I would talk about the triangle actually being a pyramid to me but I felt like this was rushed and I didn't have a lot of time. But I enjoyed doing this at the end because it was fun to draw the triangle. Here is my final project. Combination : a collection of the objects where the order doesn't matter, a permutation is an arrangement of a group of objects where the order does matter. nCr : n! / (r!) (n-r!) Example of combination : 20C15! = 20! / 5! x 5! = 20! - 5! = 15! = 15! / 5! = 1307674368000 / 120 = 108972864000...

The New Environment

Hi, my name is PA. For class is, called Population I have to make a project about my chosen organism. I chose the cheetah because I am interested in their speed and just the way they move. In this class, we are learning a lot of math and science. For this Action Project, we had to put standard deviation into the projhect and it was challenging but I ended up figuring it out. Here is. my Action Project.
