Koresh And Burn

All throughout history, religion has cemented itself as an essential part of many peoples lives, all around the globe. For someone like myself, who would not classify themselves as religious, the idea of religion seems pretty foreign, like I would never be able to understand how someone could live their life underneath a higher order…

My Progression

This past year has been what I imagine to be a pretty important and defining year in terms of who I am as a student. There were many times where I learned what my weaknesses are, although there were also the times where I learned why strengths. Personally, I think it’s most important to find…

Destination Prop Creation

About a month ago our team tackled Destination Imagination on the Provincial level, after tweaking our presentation from our first performance. Following Regionals, our team got together and discussed what needed to change, and how we could improve our performance. Through all of this we decided to add a few new things, one of them…

The New Phineas And Ferb

The new year brought a completely new topic in science. After coming off a much needed break we accelerated in to our Chemistry unit. We began by creating a mind map of everything we know about chemistry. Honestly, I didn’t know much right off the top of my head, so my mind map consisted of…

Spending 6K On The NBA

Our latest math project was one in which we were tasked with designing and calculating a theoretical road trip for MTV’s “The Illest Road Trip Of All Time”. While this project involved a lot of creativity and room for personalization, it was also very difficult at times. There were really only a few rules we…

Evaluating My Ideas

I definitely learned a lot in the first term of this school year. Though I learned all about English, Science, Math, etc., the most important thing I learned wasn’t taught to me by a teacher, or even through my iPad. The most important thing I learned is that sometimes, thinking outside the box isn’t the…

“ Steampunk “

After learning the basics of Steampunk, and what it’s about, me and my classmates job was to come up with a inquiry question relating to a more specific, detailed subcategory of the genre itself. I started to brainstorm about very specific ideas, and then I thought to myself, “Why don’t I ask myself one of…

Quick Mafs

The first math project of the year has just come to a close, and it’s time to fill you in on what happened. Basically, we were tasked with creating a functional card game, using relatively basic mathematical functions/operations. We had a lot of time to do this project, so it wasn’t at all stressful. The…

I Guess I’m Growing Up

I’ve never really understood how the transition from school to a career works, I’ve always just figured that some way or another it would figure itself out. It’s never been a tangible concept for me. For the most part, the only connection I have to the workplace is the fact that I see my parents…

So Much Revising…

Advertising, it surrounds us everywhere we go. Buy this, buy that, there is so much of it that sometimes we don’t even notice it. That’s why you have to be unique, and grab the audience’s attention. That’s just one of the many things we have been learning about at school throughout the past couple months….
