Ewwww Eczema!

In my STEAM class, Cure, we have been working on our second AP for this class. For this project, we had to think of a bacteria/disease that we wanted to know more about and we had to find different ways of curing the bacteria's that we chose. We had to find different names for the medicaments and drugs that we chose for this bacteria. I learned that there are three different kinds of ways to treat yourself:

  1.  Over-The-Counter (OTC) Drugs. OTC's are drugs that have less restriction but they are regulated.
  2.  Prescription Drugs. These are drugs that need a recommendation from a professional, like a doctor or surgeon.
  3. Treatments. These are drugs that are everything else but they are unregulated.

We learned the difference between drugs and medicines, and we also learned the difference between treating and curing and intended effects and side effects. We got to look at box's of medicine and we were looking at the drug facts that are on the back of the medicine. I thought that this was really cool because I never knew that there were so many facts on the back of drugs. Another interesting thing that we did in class that was really cool was the Miracle Berry Pill Lab. This lab was really cool because we tasted the pill and it disabled our sour taste buds. We tried different types of sour and tart foods before we took the pill and after we took the pill we ate the same foods again, and EVERYTHING was so sweet. I was so shocked because I was not expecting that to happen to my taste buds. We learned that the process that we did was the lock and key process. Down below you will see my project and what I worked on. Hope you enjoy!

Opposites Attract!!

In my STEAM class, Urban Planning, we finished our second unit, Power, and we learned a lot about circuits and eco friendly home appliances. For this unit, we went to the Museum of Science and Industry to watch the Tesla coil be set off. That was a really cool experience because I wasn't expecting for the coil to be that loud. We have been studying circuits and how to make them. We learned about the different symbols that are used for circuits when you draw them out. For this AP, we were paired up with another person in our class and that made the process of this project better because there was a lot of work that had to be done for this AP. The format for this AP, was slideshow format. In our slideshow, you will see the circuit that we created, the eco friendly home appliances that each resistor is representing, calculations, and more. We had to talk about how this AP connected with SDG 7 and why we chose it. You will learn about the circuit that we designed and the home applianc...

Freedom Of Speech... But Don't Take It Too Far!!

In my Humanities Class, Policy, we finished our last term of this class. I am so happy that I was able to take this class because I now know what I want to be in life because of this class. This class helped me realized that I willIn class, we have been learning a lot about the Supreme Court and the types of power that this court has. For this AP, we had to chose a certain case and talk about how that certain case was involved with this case. I learned so much from this case because the one that I chose actually deals with my life as a teenager in school. I chose slideshow format for this AP because they help me gather more information and I actually understand the work that I am doing. We visited the Veteran's Arts Museum and it was so interesting being able to see actual clothing and letters from important wars gives you a different look on it. Down below is my slideshow, hope you enjoy! In conclusion, I really enjoyed making this AP. Being able to learn about my rights...

Activist Paper

In my elective course called Global Peace, we have been focusing on the Gandhi principles and how people use these principles throughout their lives. For the AP, we had to type a 4-6 page paper about an activist that we chose, according to a list of activist that the teacher gave us. I chose Deray Mckesson to be the activist that I wrote my paper on. The process of this paper was very interesting and intense. I felt like I was going to struggle a lot with this paper because I was nervous. Sharon helped me by giving me corrections and helping me with the guide of the paper. Once I recieved all of the corrections from Sharon and applied them to my paper, that helped me a lot and I was able to continue to work on my paper. The rubric that Sharon gave the class was extremely helpful and that helped me with knowing exactly what to put on my paper because I was confused on what to talk about with the paper especially since it is a 4-6 page paper. Overall, the paper turned out fine and I fin...
