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 baƱo 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.

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...

Walters impulsions

In this drama unit, we focused on defining the concept of a "matriarch" and explored its role in perpetuating inequality. We read  A Raisin in the Sun  by Lorraine Hansberry, which tells the story of a Black family struggling to improve their lives in 1950s Chicago after receiving a $10,000 insurance check. Alongside our reading, we visited the Goodman Theater, where Kelsey introduced us to various archetypes of Black women in theater. While reading the play, I found myself resonating with Ruth, especially as her husband Walter faced significant challenges. Walter’s grave mistake stemmed from the immense pressure he felt to provide for his family, as he assumed the role of the head of the household. Living with strong, independent women who often belittled him contributed to his struggles. My engagement with Walter's character allowed me to glean valuable insights about his humanity and motivations. The turning point for Walter came when he grappled with the weight of his...
