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.

Snapshots of Memories

For Final Presentations this term I am presenting the GCE Minecraft server. The GCE Minecraft server is a multiplayer world on Minecraft where me and a fellow freshman have built GCE. Since we were not able to conclude our school year at GCE and it being the last year at the current location, we decided to make a replica in Minecraft. During the terms pre-apocalypse a few GCE students took interest in creating multiplayer Minecraft worlds like surviving as a group to beat the game and even building a massive city. As we moved through the weeks after GCE closed its doors the students continued to play and collaborate with each other. One of these students came up with the idea of building GCE. I agreed to do it because I have a passion for Minecraft and have become an architect on it just like the creators that I take inspiration from. When there is something you enjoy, do more of it. So, in the mindset of the Final Presentations for this term and having a little bit of fun we sta...

Spilling Into Something Else

Welcome back to my blog! This post is for the first Action Project of the Humanities class, Equality. In this first unit, we have learned about equality and how to reach an egalitarian society. We also dove into intersectionality, sociology, and social stratification. We started reading There There  by Tommy Orange, a novel following the stories of Native American characters in Oakland grappling with a complex and painful history and identity. With the idea of creating zines for our Action Project, we had multiple Field Experiences that gave us a chance to observe and study all kinds of zines. These FEs include looking at the zine collection in the Joseph Regenstein Library at the University of Chicago, Co-Prosperity artist space and gallery to investigate underground and independent media, and Howling Pages Comics, where the owner promotes zines created by young people and small press or independent comics. This Action Project asks us to choose a historical event that exemplifies...

Building My Future - A Survival Guide

Welcome back to my blog! This post is for the second Action Project of the Humanities class, Endurance. In this unit, Apothesis, we started to think about our futures and contemplate where we would go from here. As the end of the school year nears the end, everyone is preparing to step into the next chapter of their life. We continued to look at how other influential figures have endured and their journeys over their lives. We also examined the difference between endurance by force and choice and the skills required in each situation after a Field Experience at Bender's Martial Arts. While we were there, we engaged in a fitness boot camp that tested our physical and mental limits. For this Action Project, we were tasked with creating a survival guide that could serve as a map for our futures. The survival guide focuses on our dream or mission and what we will need to fulfill that mission as we grow up. I hope you enjoy reading about my plan for the future. I hope you enjoyed readin...
