Chemistry
Shown is a lab report of a chemistry lab. In this lab, we had to accurately measure the amount of salt in a saline solution. This was a project that required care and following the procedure given to us properly. We had to document every step we had taken, which is shown in the spreadsheet. This project also included new techniques for us, such as heating and cooling.
This project connects to the pillar of investigating the world. While this project does not have a global focus, it connects to investigating the world as we have to attempt to understand the reactions of the salt and heat. Chemistry is the building block of the world, and this lab was a (miniature) representation of how the world reacts with itself.
Documentary
Shown is our JAGS Documentary Script. Our documentary was focused on athletes' motivations and struggles in competition. This documentary was meant to uncover both the physical and mental turmoil that athletes, especially collegiate, go through. This was a group project that I worked on with Kai Nukuto, Henry Self, and AJ Marshall.
This project connects to the JAGS pillar of recognizing perspectives. This documentary was created with the purpose of understanding the perspective of athletes. We attempted to find how motivation and passion clashed with the negatives of sports such as injuries or rules regarding identity use. The struggle for an athlete to have their own identity rather than feeling (or sometimes actually) being owned by a company like the NCAA.
English
Shown is the reflection paper of our Thank You Challenge. This was a group project that involved choosing a group to thank. My group (Brady Wyss, Hayden Kemper, Connor Austin) chose firefighters as our group to help. We chose to help by creating a basket of goods for the firefighters and dropping it off at the fire station. We went to the store and bought food and drinks, and packaged them up.
This project connects to the pillar of taking action. The entire purpose of the project was to take action and to go out of one's way to show appreciation. We took action by rewarding a very important group of our community to show our appreciation.
AP US History
Shown is an example of the homework we had in AP US History. I had taken APUSH because I was interested in history after Marlett's class. While this class ended up being a major step up from World History 9, I enjoyed how informative the class was. Taray was a great teacher who was able to teach us a tremendous amount of history in a very concise and understandable way. While this class was very hard for me, I do not regret taking it at all.
The homework and APUSH as a class connects to investigate the world. While APUSH is primarily focused on the United States with some European history sneaking in, learning about how the United States has operated has helped with my global knowledge. The United States' evolution and politcal/governmental changes throughout history reflect events of other countries. An example is the United States Revolution being inspired by the French.
French II
Shown is a group project involving finding and marketing a hotel with a French focus. The requirement was that we find a hotel in a French-speaking country. My group (Ethan Cox, Sebastian Dodrill) decided to seek out the most expensive hotel we could find. This had us end up in Rwanda's Gorilla Nest, an extremely expensive suite in the mountains of Rwanda. As we sought out expensive hotels, we learned about the different French-speaking countries and why/how they speak French as an official language.
