 This is my action project for my Spanish class, in which we had to design a house. In this unit, we've learned about conjugating different verbs, such as ar, ir, and er. We had to create different sentences using these verbs and design the house. What I found challenging was designing the house using Google Drawings, as I've never used it before. However, I'm happy with how it turned out, especially for it being my first attempt at using Google Drawings.  A.C. Design A House  Final Draft,  2023.     A.C. Design a House  Rough Draft,  2023.

       This is my action project for my class Energy, in which we had to create a slideshow that talks about a fossil fuel in a country. We've discussed fossil fuels, graphing, slopes, and atoms in this unit. We've also done some experiments relating to combustion, all of which involved some chaos. We haven't on any FEs specifically for our Energy class, but I think what we've been doing in class makes up for it. It's all been very interesting, nothing too challenging and nothing too easy.     For the action project, my fossil fuel was oil and my country was China. Last year, China reported a decrease in oil consumption for the first time in decades. This was due to China being on lockdown, meaning oil wasn't needed as much. This story intrigued me, so I decided to do it. Getting all the information did take some time, but I'd say I'm happy with the results.     Going into this project, I had no idea what I was doing. I didn't know what I wanted to

     This is the first action project for the winter term of my class Who Am I? During this term, we've tackled many different topics covering race, ethnicity, and culture. For example, we watched the movie  Yellow Rose , in which, after her mother's deportation, Rose sets out to achieve her dream of becoming a country movie star. The way the movie showcased how culture and ethnicity impact the way we move about the world and what we're expected to be was very interesting. We also visited the Field Museum, where we learned about Native culture and how deep their lineage lies in Chicago, which was very nice to see. Native Americans rarely receive representation in media, so having a major museum giving them the spotlight was very nice.     For our action project, we had to record a 10 to 12-minute podcast asking a family member their thoughts on race, ethnicity, and culture. I chose to interview my mother, as I wanted to know her experiences growing up with my grandmother. M
