The Wilderness Must Be Explored!

 

Introduction 

Wow, it has been quite a year! So much has happened and school is almost over. Let me tell you about the project “the wilderness must be explored.” 

 

The Oregon Trip

So much happened on the Oregon trip and I had so many new experiences! For example, I learned how language inspires adventure, which I’ll talk more about later. I also gained a better understanding of what a PLP field study is really like. A highlight of my Oregon trip was weirdly the car drive! My friends and I had a sleep train and it was pretty funny and oddly comfortable.

 

 

My Adventure Book

On the field study we went to many new places and had lots of new experiences! To document all of our things down we put it in an adventure book. Even though at times the work became a lot, I ended up pushing through and having a lot of fun! I even created my own theme, to make the adventure book  more “me.” If you would like to check out my adventure book, I’ll put the link below!

 

My Individual Ad

Before the spring exhibition came along, everyone needed to create an individual ad. after many revisions I finally came up with this final draft! This is my Oregon ad I have created. In addition to making Oregon ads, my group and I chose a slogan. Our slogan was “No challenge, no change.”

 

The Spring Exhibition!

 

The Layout

since my group is number 5, we got lots of space to showcase our work, which I’m very happy about!

 

 

Our Food🌳

This is the food we made for our project! Since my group is Challenge and Growth we decided to make some growth themed plants. The brownie bites were the soil, and the cake pops were trees!

 

 

 

How it Went

The spring exhibition wasn’t amazing but it wasn’t good either. Before people started arriving it was a bit stressful making sure that everything was going to be set up on time. However, once people started arriving I would say our performance was quite good. Everyone was interested in what we had to say, and of course who doesn’t love food? Although, as the hours went by, my group as well as many others got quite tired.🥲 I was trying my best to make sure everyone stayed on task but near the end it got pretty hard! Overall I would say we did well, my group and I stayed on task as much as possible for grade 8’s. The spring exhibition was overall a great learning experience and I had a lot of fun!

How Does Language Inspire Adventure?

Languages inspires adventure in many difference ways. For example, it allows us to share stories, understand many different perspectives and connect with our peers. Whether it’s through books, conversations or travel, language encourages your curiosity and desire to explore.

 

Conclusion 

In conclusion, the Oregon trip and the spring exhibition were filled with adventure and learning. The Oregon trip showed me how language inspires exploration. Creating an adventure book and an ad taught me the importance of embracing challenges. Language drives peoples curiosity and helps us to explore the wilderness and all it offers. Overall this was a very fun project and I’m exited for future projects!
