Hey guys, it’s been a while since I did one of these posts wrapping up our most recent project but after the weeks of the smaller posts giving you a peek at what we’ve been doing, I’m finally here to reflect. Now, as you could have probably deciphered from the last few posts, our most […]
PLP 10
Games of Our Childhood
Hello you beautiful people, it has been another week of the year end grind and I come to you with my thoughts on games from the 50’s vs. present day. For some context, as we reached the end of our unit on Canada in the 1950’s, Ms.Maxwell decided that we would take a look at […]
The American Influence
So as many if you will probably know, Eurovision just finished a bout a week ago with Italy taking the win. There were some great performances like the ones from the Ukraine and Iceland and some that you wonder how they got to the finals in the first place. And as always, the UK got […]
Suburbs of Then and Now
Bonjour tout le monde, as usual, I’ve been researching for our current PLP project, specifically about the appeal of the suburbs and the communities that were created from them. There were some interesting things I found, but one thing that was pretty interesting was how these suburban communities could almost be seen as modern day […]
A short but sweet look at disney and the nuclear family
As you know, we’ve been looking at the development of the world and daily lives after the war in the 1950’s and today in class we looked at the importance of Disneyland in 1950’s America. The history of Disney itself is a tale unto it’s own, however, today I would like to talk about the […]
Ballets of the East and West

Unknown Adaptions
Hello my good fellows, if you’ve been reading my recent blog posts then you know that for the last few weeks we’ve been looking at Romeo and Juliet and how that classic story is adapted to modern times. When hearing that your mind most likely automatically goes to much more straight forward adaptions of the […]
The Wondrous World of a Dancing Wonderland
As you guys probably know, this year we’ve been creating a podcast that surrounds a topic of our choice, I decided to go with dance. As you can expect it requires a lot of research and that was no different for our most recent episode. https://open.spotify.com/episode/4K419NI7QlHxoo96kyDz3i?si=lARanFpTQKSxcDRJxrcH-A This episode surrounded the idea of adaptions and how […]
An Unknown Foulness
Well hello my dear readers, it’s been a minute but I am back so without anymore hesitation lets get into this weeks blog post. So recently we’ve started a new project in Humanities called iHeart Verona and as you could maybe tell by the name it surrounds Romeo and Juliet. Now, I’m not going to […]
The Waltz of WWII
Hey guys, for the last few months us students in PLP 10 have been working on creating and publishing our very own podcasts. They could be about anything we wanted as long as the focus didn’t become too specific and I decided I wanted to make mine about the history of dance and different events […]
