THE GREAT AMENDMENT

  Hello Visitor! In this class called A Nation’s Argument we talked about the progression of the United States as a nation. In that, we wanted to answer the question of how a Nation that is supposed to act in unity contradicts itself due to the differences in political views, life ideologies, and of course, the economy. We went back to the very beginning by studying the Declaration of Independence by having groups debunk each page of the D.O.I to understand why and how Thomas Jefferson wrote what he did. We also had to think as a person in the 1770’s to fully engulf in the world of a person that lived in this time to figure out their perspective and the thesis that the United States was proclaiming.

Hey Visitor, In this Action Project we learned about the last Unit in this class which was Light. The light portion of this class had a lot of math and history.

After that we looked at the history of devices that used the aspects of the Earth like the Sun in order to tell time. The devices we looked at were from the ancient past and we then followed the pivotal scientific discoveries during that era to see how it progressed forward. The devices went from the sundial and chronologically progressed to the digital time on our phones. During the following of these scientific discoveries we learned the math behind every device that required it. So we learned how sailors used navigational devices to figure out their coordinates and the formulas that came with that. So a way that was used for not knowing your coordinates was su

Mexico City Flash Card Game

 Hello Visitor, This was a project for the Spanish class where we were asked to make a matching flash card game about a Spanish speaking city. The city I chose was Mexico city; but preceding to this project we learned about Indirect and Direct Pronouns, Irregular and Regular Verbs. We then looked at activities that tourists would do in these cities and images to correlate to the activities. Lastly, we had to get flashcards and images to make a matching game. This is my sort of flashcards for the game!  Flash Card Deck created by Khayyel Johnson with GoConqr The statements I used on the flashcards are:  Estoy comiendo en la gruta cave restaurante  Estoy en el museo de Frida Kahlo  Estoy en el tour de coyoacán  Estoy en el San Angel Market comprando un el chaqueta Yo puedo pasear a él Coyoacán Artisan Market  Yo camino en Coyoacán  Yo veo una película en Cineteca Nacional Vamos a salir a el Palacio de Correos de México  Los compro en la tienda de ropa.
