Star Cards reflection.

 


Hello Welcome to my blog, this term in Game Changers, we had to look at diffrent games from battle cards, to Magic the gatheing to get insperation to create our own games. I realise now that creating a game is very ambitious especcially for two weeks but this is what I was able to accomplish.


HEY YOU! YES YOU! Do you want to play a game that is both a card game and an amazing battle game? Well you're in luck! We've created an amazing game from both Star Wars and battling to save the galaxy. Will evil prevail.. Or will goodness keep the galaxy in balance. Our game’s name is “STAR CARDS.” The game starts off with 4 cards for every person. You place one card down for each person and you battle each other's cards and the cards that deal the most damage win the round.

Our game is a battle cards game, to be quite honest when we first started out i didnt think that i would even be able to finish. The first week was the most teadous, purley because we started bouncing from idea to idea. We had finnaly settled on one thing Christmas, and Star Wars. After a lot of deliberatilon we finally agreed on doing star wars. We got our inspiration from "Magic the Gathering" so we took what we learned and put a spin on it. Our game has seven rules as follows:

  1. 2-4 players

  2. 2 teams, or 4 individual players

  3. Shuffle the deck

  4. Pass 4 cards to each player

  5. Place each card face up 

  6. Whoever saw Star Wars last or the person to the left of the dealer slides a card forward or draws from the deck and everyone does that until everyone has pushed a card to the center and then they battle until one card is left standing or until they've done damage.

  7. Once done, everyone retakes there cards, you can draw a card, or place a new one from your hand on the table.


    I wish we had more time to show more of what our game couldve been. I think that, if we had more time say 2-3 months i think our game wouldve had way more progress. I am overall happy with what we got. The outcome was pretty good for a game designed in less than 2 weeks. We rushed yes, but we still got things done. There was alot of laughter, there was a lot of anger, but we still managed to get things done. Thats all that matters.

The photo below shows the progress of our game, from the very first issue on strips of paper, to the index cards to our actual cards. This was really stressful, but we managed to get it done in so little time.

Am I really a Global Peace Maker?

Hello all! It's been quite some time since I last made a blog post. First I wish you all a wonderful Merry Christmas, and an amazing new year! This term, I was in a class called Global peace, this term we focused on methods that would and should bring attention to issues in our community, in nonviolent ways. Global peace also focused on the Gandhian principles of truth, nonviolence, Sarvadoya, and Satyagraha. In Global Peace, we went on some inspiring FEs like the neighborhood walk. On this FE we got to walk through two different neighborhoods and observe the differences between them. For this AP I had to make a plan to combat an issue, I chose gun violence, and the purpose of this is to promote a sense that we are all welcome, and we can all live in a community without violence. The purpose is also to show that we are on a united front to stand against gun violence. I hope you enjoy my slide show, and I hope it will help you understand why gun violence is a prevalent issue in all...

In this Spanish unit, we focused on expanding our vocabulary related to food, cooking, and dining. Our goal was to learn and apply food-related terms and phrases, specifically using them in the context of a video demonstration. For the project, I chose a specific dish to showcase, narrating the preparation process to demonstrate my Spanish-speaking skills, the use of the preterit tense, and tĂș commands. The vocabulary covered an extensive range of food items, cooking utensils, condiments, and kitchen essentials needed to prepare meals. We were also tasked with designing a menu, where we included images of various foods or dishes, each with prices we thought were suitable for a mock restaurant. The process was challenging yet rewarding, particularly in selecting the dish to prepare and recording the audio narration in Spanish while cooking—a task that tested my pronunciation and fluency in a real-time setting. This project not only strengthened my vocabulary but also allowed me to apply...

How deep do your values go?

Welcome to my first AP of the term in  Forbidden Books . This class, as the name states, is about censored/banned books and literature. We will dig deeper into understanding the reasons why books and texts were banned. We have had the opportunity to start the book  Fahrenheit 451  by Ray Bradbury, which was banned in the United States, South Africa, and multiple school districts around the US. For the first portion of this unit, we learned about a Socratic seminar and the "Socratic method." The Socratic method is a form of teaching and learning that involves asking questions instead of providing answers. It is a method of discussion, often used in philosophy and critical thinking. The goal of the Socratic method is to encourage critical thinking and understanding by asking questions that challenge assumptions and lead to deeper understanding. For this Action Project, we had to have two people: Person one (Joe Walters) plays as Socrates, the questioner, and the second pers...
