It’s the End of the World!!!
It’s the end of the world? Wait, no not really, we had to write a song, sing it, record a music video, and post it to our YouTube channels (which certainly felt like the end of the world). In our project, we made a song that was like“The End of the World as we Know it” and we had to tie it together to our worldviews by reading and comprehending the Outsiders and how their worldview in the book still relates to our worldview today. We did a lot of small assignments such as our MindNode, in which we connected different aspects of our worldview and we commented our beliefs on the certain aspect of worldview we also had to write lyrics for our song, and we devolved and reviewed the song until it was good enough and we liked it. The finished project was our video which you can watch here:
The Outsiders:
In this part of our project we read the book “The Outsiders” and we reflected on it by doing role sheets. We also talked in our groups and discussed about the different role sheets and then we assessed ourselves on how we think we did in our discussions. When we finished the book, we watched the movie. I recommend reading the book, but it really helped me connect to the driving question: How can a text help me understand myself as my worldview is changing? The text in the driving question was the Outsiders and why it helped me understand my own worldview was that it was about teenagers around my age, and they were very different from me, but some things still were the same.
Conclusion:
To end off this blog post, I felt like it was right to say how much this project taught me. If there is one thing that I have learnt from my first few months at PLP, it’s that when you finish a project, it’s not done. You take the knowledge that you learnt from it, and apply it to the projects to come. Worldview is a great example of that. In our other projects, we always refer to worldview, and this was a great way to start everything off, by doing a project on something that I will need until grade 12! Thank you for reading! And I’ll be sure to post again soon.
Great post Sam! Just don’t forget to add a title to the post itself as it is named “untitled” right now.

Hey!
I love the way you worded everything. And as well as when you recommended the book for someone else to read. I thought that was nice. I loved the joke in there with the “it certainly felt like the end of the world.” It made me laugh
All in all I loved the post

Hi Sam! I really liked your blog post and your blog overall. And I also liked the music video because 1. It was really interesting seeing how you guys made the lyrics into your own and 2. It featured two of my best friends Julia and Robin! Anyway keep posting and Ill stay updated 👍 And If you can visit and post a comment on my blog @blog44.ca/sienaj Siena 😁
Hi Samuel!
I really enjoyed how you explained what we did, and next time to make it even better, you can put more visuals. I think it would help by adding a photo to help explain your text better! Other than that, it looks great!
