Currently we are reading a book called Leviathan. It is set in a retro Victorian steampunk WWI. We are also just starting in on revolutions. Two units that will connect, so stay tuned. For the past two weeks in the grade 9 PLP class, or FLIGHT, we have been asked a driving question regarding that […]
Recently in class we have been researching, discussing and learning about revolutions. How they shaped our world today, but more importantly what they are. We looked at a man named Crane Brinton, in 1938 he released a book,The Anatomy off Revolution. He compared revolutions to a fever, how it spreads and affects us. The diagram above describes his […]
My summer was a very fun summer even if it was same thing the whole time. My whole summer the only thing that I did was stand up paddle board race and train for those races. The first trip of the year was the annual D.A.R.T (Deep Cove Advanced Race Team) surf trip over march […]

Lucky for me over spring break during the observation part, I has in Tofino surfing with my family and paddle board friends. Up until that point I had wanted to design a perfect world, I continued on with that […]
It’s not often that I write a post in this blog about my SciMatics course, but this is a little different than your used to from a science or math course. Recently we have been studying the properties of light. Reflection, refraction, opacity, transparency, translucency and more. But we’were also learning about pioneers in the […]
Going into this unit I had no idea what to expect. Just more sadness, death, plague, lack of social justice and even more fun stuff. But at that time I did not know what Renaissance even meant. In truth it means rebirth, the rebirth of the Roman and Greek way of ordering our society. And […]
How is the worldview of different religions represented in the real world? That is the question that we intend to answer on this 3-day extravaganza of a field trip. We started at the Hindu temple. Once we got upstairs we saw something quite amazing. The he sign on the left is Aum. Hindus consider Aum to […]
This is my worldview explain everything that I made, it is the second version. The first one was definitely not as good or good at all, but still don’t get your hopes up.
