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:

2-4 players
2 teams, or 4 individual players
Shuffle the deck
Pass 4 cards to each player
Place each card face up
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.
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.

Redefining Queenship: Gender, Power, and Ambition in Shakespeare's Macbeth

Welcome to my blog, In our first Drama unit, we tackled the question, "How do we respond to gender norms and stereotypes?" To explore this, we dove into the works of William Shakespeare, examining how theater can inspire social change. We focused on Macbeth , using the play as a lens to question traditional gender roles and the evolving concept of what it means to be a queen. This was the perfect foundation for the unit, letting us dig deeper into our own ideas of strength and duty. To me, a queen is someone who puts her role before herself, making difficult choices—even ones that might be considered morally complex. While we didn’t have many field trips, we had inspiring guest speakers. Regina Taylor, known for her role as Michelle Obama's mother in The First Lady and her work in Lovecraft Country , shared her insights on how storytelling can bridge divides of race, gender, and class. She likened the influence of media to the civil rights movem...

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...

Penguins:

In the second unit of my class Population, we learned a lot about the evolution of the earth. We went to Lincoln Park Zoo, to see how different animals look alike and how closely they were related. We also learned about different math concepts such as standard deviation and how to categorize a data set. My project is based on the King Penguin, the King Penguin is 1 of 18 members of its family. There are about 18–21 species in 1 family (Spheniscidae) with 6 species found in oceans of the Southern Hemisphere. The data I chose to focus on was the average life span of a King Penguin, so below I have data in the range of their life span. a) 10 b) 9 c) 3 d) 9 e) 27 f) 21 g) 13 h) 3 i) 19 j) 22 k) 10 l) 12 Mean 13.166666666667 Median 11 Mode 10, 9, 3 Range 24 Minimum 3 Maximum 27 The Box and Whisker plot helps show how the data is distributed, this also gives an idea as to the lifespan data. nPr : 12! (12 - 3)! = 1320 nCr : 12! (3!(12-3)!) 1...
