Diseñando Una Casa

 Welcome back to my blog. This post is for the second Action Project in my Spanish class. So far in this winter term, we have been going over lots of vocabulary for houses such as furniture, rooms, and other pieces of a house. We have also looked at direct and indirect object pronouns as well as the present progressive tense for writing sentences. We have continued to study "ar", "er", and "ir" verbs. For this Action Project, we are creating a floor plan for a house. This house has to have 5 rooms: a bedroom, bathroom, dining room, kitchen, and living room. I also added an office area in my house. For each of these rooms, we could add furniture that would be labeled in Spanish. The whole project requires at least 15 vocabulary words for the furniture. With all of this, we have been asked to write sentences using the "ar", "er", and "ir" verbs about what we do in each room and make use of the present progressive tense and direct and indirect object pronouns. I hope you enjoy looking at my house design and reading the sentences in Spanish.

I hope you enjoyed reading my work in Spanish and looking at the floorplan I designed. I am interested in architecture as a career option so making a floorplan was pretty fun. After making my rough draft I chose to change where some of the furniture went in the rooms. Overall, I had fun with this Action Project and I think I did well with my Spanish. Originally I wanted to design the floorplan after my own house, but I chose otherwise because I did not want to put extra work on myself especially if it wasn't needed. Again, I hope you enjoyed reading this post and I hope to see you in the next one.

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...

Input Manipulation Using Python

Welcome back to my blog. This post is for the projects in the Computer Science class. In Computer Science we have been learning about different types of coding and how computers work. We have done math problems in binary code and practiced making something from using python. In these two projects we used python to code a advanced calculator that you can use to find what the temperature in Celsius is based off of your input of your temperature outside in Fahrenheit. The second project here is a code that uses your inputs to create a letter to a state representative to talk about something important to you. Both of these codes have been checked multiple times to see if there were any errors or changes that needed to be made. If you would like to try them out for yourself you can do so by typing in your responses on the right to the questions that are asked. The first project is an advanced calculator that takes an input of a given temperature in Fahrenheit and converts it into Celsius fo...

Can You Spell Sub-Bituminous Coal?

The first unit of this winter term was very interesting in the Fuel class for STEAM. We did a lot of talking about energy and different types of fuel. Some of these include the known fossil fuels, natural gas, oil, coal, and also renewable sources of energy like solar and wind. We also watched the documentary Pump which is about people having a choice at the gas pump and being able to decide what fuel they should use for their car. In this unit we talked to someone from Nicor Gas where we found some extra opinion on the use of natural gases and the other fuels we use today. This unit largely talked about fossil fuels and how we use them in our daily lives without even realizing it. We might be getting our power in our home from a coal plant and our car uses gas. Even though we may fill up our cars about once every couple weeks we may not actually think about what is happening somewhere that is allowing us to have this gas. In this unit we also did a lot of graphing and predictions for ...
