Viajar a Puerto Rico (Travel to Puerto Rico)

Welcome back to my blog, This post is for the Action Project in our Spanish class. In Spanish, we have been covering verbs, adjectives, comparisons, superlatives, and more. Throughout the course, we have been using our textbook to learn these topics and apply them in different real-life situations. For this Action Project, we are creating a travel pamphlet to a Spanish-speaking country of our choice. I chose Puerto Rico because I have traveled there in the past and had a great time. This travel pamphlet has an English and Spanish version which includes, where to stay, local food, tourist destinations, and activities. I hope you enjoy reading and are maybe convinced to travel to Puerto Rico.

I hope you enjoyed reading over the travel pamphlet. I think Puerto Rico was a good choice for me because I have traveled there before. Del Morro castle was one of the first places my family and I visited many years ago. We also went on a bioluminescent bay and Camuy Cave excursions which were a lot of fun. I highly recommend you to partake in these experiences if they are suitable for you because they are very fun and amazing. I was able to swim in the bio bay and walking through the caves was very beautiful with all of the natural stone formations and plant life. Thank you for reading and I hope to see you in the next blog post.

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
