When we talk about math and art, we tend to talk about them separately. In school this is very true, math class and art class are very separate topics and ideas, but for this project it is a very different situation. We were presented with a challenge: to make a piece of art or music […]

 Vancouver is what some people call the perfect city, from the tall, glimmering buildings of downtown, all the way to the forested mountains of North Vancouver and everything in between. But no city is perfect. Vancouver has it’s own fair share of ‘sins’. In this project we are focusing on all of those, we were […]

Right now we are working on a larger project about Vancouver and it’s growth, and this project is like a smaller version of this.Also that large project is a podcast, this was a video. We were assigned an area of Vancouver in those groups to make the video about. Me Aiden and Kate were assigned Kitsilano.  The task was to […]

So the bidinning of this unit was a bit of a review, so in the very beginning we did a really quick mind map about what we could remember about DNA and genetics. I couldn’t remember much. Then for a review, because a lot of us remembered as much as I did. The video was […]

So for most grade 10s at around this age, we all start to enter the workforce, maybe working a summer job or maybe through the winter as well. This summer I was part of this group, I worked the whole summer at Osaka Sushi in Deep Cove and towards the end of the summer I […]

What can Trigonometry be used for in the world around us? That question is often used when talking about why we learn trigonometry, and it’s a good one. There are not many triangles in nature, but there’s a lot in things like building, design and architecture. This relates also to clean energy, when people put solar […]

So, this is our first unit as grade 10s. It is a unit about World War One, but this project and the way that we learned is a bit different than just learning abut the war itself. We based the whole project and unit around Canada’s involvement in the war. Why they joined, what was […]

So this year, we didn’t just jump into school immediately but we jumped into a field school. We went to camp Capilano, a sleep away camp in Capilano used mostly by school groups on overnights like us. We had been teased at our one day of school before the day we left that we were […]

Last year in the beginning of the year we made ‘goal setting photos,’ where we took an image of ourselves and using our iPad skills that we had learned from grade 8 we inserted text into the photo that described our goal for the year. For grade 10, we did something completely different. We all […]

In my opinion WWI started before 1914, it had been building for years before the first gunshot, and even before Franz Ferdinand was killed, which is considered to have kicked off ‘The Great War.’ Britain was known for their Navy long before WW1, they were a naval powerhouse, running their country, and other colonies around […]
