A home well lived..

HOLA!

Welcome to my blog!


My name is LJ but you know that of course, this AP was the first AP of the 2022-2023 school year, we've been making awesome progress, especially in Spanish 1. This time we've been working on congregation and using the correct verbs. We were tasked with creating a house using er-ir verbs but making sure to label them in Spanish. 

I learned that speaking/learning Spanish isn't as hard as it seems. Let alone getting things done in Spanish I've started to incorporate different aspects of Spanish into my daily life. 

Below is my version of the AP I made a two-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a spacious living room, and garage.

This was my house I made a virtual version and I also created a handmade version of it too. 
I hope you can see from the details of the doors, to the designing of the rooms.

What you should do in the bathroom and living room- debes limpiar el baño y la sala
What you should do in the kitchen: Saco mis libros y como en el comedor.
This is my virtual mock-up of what I would picture the house to look like. 
I too got a learning experience of this, from exploring the realms of architecture to the culture and language of people of Latin and Spanish backgrounds. 
I hope you enjoyed thank you for stopping by.

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...

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...

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...
