For my first unit in my class Urban Planning my class and I had to create a bridge out of popsicle sticks and carry a gallon of water on top. While making this we had to think about SDG 11. We also had to find all the angles in my triangle on the bridge. For me, this was a very different action project because of corona and how we have to stay home but I really liked doing everything at home and how we had to build these bridges on our own. I also thought it was cool how our school sent packages full of tools to build these bridges. You can find my whole project down bellow and the process it took to build it.

Intro

For my third unit in Light, Sound and Time we focused on Time and how we preserve it. This unit was my favorite out of all three of them because it really made me think about how time affects up day to day. We also learned about planets and how the earth rotates. My class and I went to the planetarium to look and learn about planets and how time is different for each planet. For the last Action Project for our unit time, we had to create a time-telling device for a client. You can read and watch about my time telling device below.

For the second unit of "A Nations Argument" We focused on argument and how people in history used and uses it. We watched many democratic debates to see how they use argument. In class, we watched the movie "13th" and it talked about inequalities in America and focuses on prisons and how people of color, but mostly black people being targetted. We Also looked at documents like the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, And the Bill of Rights including the amendments. For this Action Project, we had to pick a rule in our school's student handbook and amend it. I amended where we can eat in the school because I disagree with what the student handbook says. You can find my second Action Project for "A Nations Argument" down below. The schools rule Eating is allowed in the Cafe and Open Concept room downstairs before school, during lunch, after school, and during breaks. After eating, students must wipe down tables. Refusal to clean up can re...

For my second unit in my class Light, sound, and time we learned a lot about sound and how we hear it and how it travels. We learned what materials it travels faster in and I also learned a lot about different kinds of waves and how they travel in the air. I went on two Field experiences which are trips we go on with our class but we had to go on one field experience by our self. I went to Guitar Center by my self and learned about different guitar s and how they produce sound differently. I also learned about amps and how sound comes out of them. My class and I went to Chicago Hearing Society to learn about people that are hard of hearing or deaf and took away a lot out of it. I enjoyed this project because we had to use our hands and creativity and I really like that. You can find my project down below. You can hear my playing my guitar below my slideshow.

In my class "A Nations Argument" we look closely at our history and how rules affect us negatively and positively. We looked at the Declaration of independence for a guide-line when making our own declaration of independence. Before getting into my project we did a lot of things in this class. We went on many Feild Experiences. Ones that stood out to me were going to City hall and talking to the  Alderman of the 27th ward in Chicago.  We looked at many documents of argument that showed us what argument and arguing is acually about. Getting back to this project, we had to create our own declaration. In this declaration we Argued on what school is and why we should be able to make our own class. I hope you enjoy my declaration. Declaration What I am going to learn at school is fashion and design. I think it's necessary for people to choose what they want to be studying and doing. In my fashion and design class I will learn about fashion, then I will create my own clothi...

Hello. This project is for my class called "Light, Sound, and Time". In my class we learned a lot about light and how light can affect many different things. For this project we made a pinhole camera that we took a photo with. To create those photos we had to go to a dark room to be able to see the pictures. I think this first part of class was very interesting and taught me alot so far.
