Steakkkkkkk

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 Spanish in a practical, engaging way.

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...
