What do your dreams mean?

What do my dreams say about who I am?

As we end the winter term we begin to work on our Final Presentations. Normally we would be giving a talking and more one on one presentation but this term is different. Because of what is going on in the world today, there is risk for our community. Instead of showing our Final Presentations at our school and open to the public, we will create blog posts about them. With the posts being a bit more public than showing it to families and fellow students that creates an opportunity to make our work more wide spread. For these final presentation we have been tasked with creating or using a guiding question based off of a certain class that we are showcasing. My final presentation is about dreams. One exercise that the other freshman and I worked on was sharing our dreams. This assignment was supposed to have us learn to interpret our dreams and understand them. We could use this analysis to think about other dreams that we had. This exercise can be done by you and a partner. Each of you can share a dream and whatever parts of it as you like and the dream partner will ask questions about your dream afterward. If you want to try it yourself there are directions below.

Guidelines for Sharing Your Dreams
-- Choose someone you trust to share your dream with and someone who trusts you to share their dream with you. 
-- Choose a dream you are comfortable with sharing.
-- Try not to ask questions that are too personal for the dreamer if they haven’t shared something about it already. 
-- If the dreamer does not want to share something do not pressure them to say it.
-- Do not tell the dreamer what their dream is about. Only say what it would mean to you in your dream.
-- Dreams that are shared should not be told to outsiders without the dreamer’s permission.

Use these questions to explore and interpret your dream.
-- If this dream had a title, what would it be?
-- How did this dream make you feel? What emotions do you associate with this dream?
-- What questions would you ask the dream, if any?
-- If you could go back into your dream and do something differently, what would you do?
-- Does this dream inspire any action in the conscious world? What do you feel like you need to do because of this dream?
-- What was the lesson you learned from the dream?

I have done this exercise and answered these questions which are below. 

-- If this dream had a title, what would it be?
Airplane Trap
-- How did this dream make you feel? What emotions do you associate with this dream?
This dream made me feel sad and alone.
-- What questions would you ask the dream, if any?
What does this dream mean? What do my actions represent?
-- If you could go back into your dream and do something differently, what would you do?
I would have tried harder to rescue the people that were dying and also try to get help from the other people that could help out.
-- Does this dream inspire any action in the conscious world? What do you feel like you need to do because of this dream?
I feel like I need to always help others if they are in danger when I can. If I have the chance to help or save people I should always do it.
-- What was the lesson you learned from the dream?
Always try to help the ones who cannot help themselves.

Breaking Free from Chemical Rockets

Welcome back to my blog! This post is for the second Action Project of the STEAM class, Frontiers. This class has been about the frontiers of science and discovery in space and the oceans. We studied marine ecology, biology, geology, and physiology in the first unit. We also looked at technological frontiers in the maritime sector, such as ways to clean up ocean pollution, capture carbon dioxide, and rebuild coral reefs. In this unit, we have looked at the stars, planets, and galaxies around us. We have learned about how the universe came to exist and how humans began to study it. For this Action Project, we have been tasked with writing a research paper about a frontier of our choosing in the field of space exploration. For my paper, I decided to look into propulsion systems or the types of rockets that can bring humans or crewless spacecraft from the Earth's surface into orbit. Propulsion systems have been researched and built for many years, so in a general sense, they aren'

Food, a Human Right?

In our Humanities or SDGs class, Sustainable Development Goals, we were talking about the certain goals that could be thought of as a need to be a human right. The options were no poverty, no hunger, and quality education. The goal that I chose was number two, no hunger. I believe that food should be a human right because it is primarily a basic need. We need food to survive and if we do not have it we will obviously die, since that is the only alternative. Before then we went on a field experience to Lincoln Park Community Services in Chicago. There we experienced people who are hungry and we also as a class, cooked for the people that attended the lunch. I personally enjoyed this because I was able to talk with people that needed food and they were really appreciative of the food that they had been given. This led to the action project which is an essay about our chosen goal. The essay is below. To, Hiu, LPCS 2019, One of the food items cooked was chicken. Could you imagine

Opposing Opinions

Welcome to my blog. This is the first Action Project for the winter term class Forbidden Books. In this unit we read the book, Fahrenheit 451  by Ray Bradbury. This book was banned because of its description of burning literature, mentioning abortions, suicide, murder, and drugs. In many schools this book has been prohibited from the curriculum due to its story. After reading this book myself I can understand why some schools or people would not want children to read it. We have also observed other censored books such as Green Eggs and Ham  by Dr. Seuss. In these short assignments we tried finding why people would censor these children's books. In this unit we talked about Socrates and his suicide as a result of being charged for corrupting the youth in the teachings he believed and followed. For this Action Project we had to create a Socratic Dialogue about any topic. During Socrates' trial he questioned his accuser, Meletus. Socrates tried getting Meletus to come to a realiza
