This code segment takes a value, and prints the before and after of the value once we double it
This code segment relates to tuples, and we had to use concatenation to remove the string from the tuple
This code segment asks the user for a meal, and then gives them a suggestion based on their answer
This asks the user for their age, and if it is between 12 and 20, it says they are a teenager; if not, it says they are not
This segment takes a random color, and creates a square of that color when you quick
This code rolls a dice randomly 100 times, and prints the values
In this lab, we recycled paper to create new paper sheets. We did this by blending paper and water together, and then gathering the chunks together on a sheet to dry out. This relates to Chemistry because the paper chunks were blended, and were able to come together when they dried out.
In this lab, we used red cabbage and blueberries to change the color of water, and dye bandanas. We also poured baking soda into the water, and it reacted to turn the water a more greenish color. This relates to Chemistry because the dye bonds to the fabric, and it permanently bonds to make it the color.
In class, we learned how to weave. Weaving is a technique that allows you to create a fabric by interlacing 2 pieces. When you weave, you put each piece in an alternating pattern of over and under, and the next piece in the line switches order. Weaving relates to Chemistry because 'weaving' could describe a covalent bond, which is when 2 nonmetals share an electron pair.
We used broken brushes to paint with black dye. You are supposed to use the bulk of the dye in the foreground, and as the dye runs out on the brush go further up to the middle and background. This relates to Chemistry because the dye bonds to the paper molecules, similar to the bandanas.

Our website is about the inequality faced in Latin America, specifically income inequality. We also focused on other global problems that stem from inequality, including poverty and homelessness. We also provided resources people can reach out to for help with their problems.
Nuestro sitio web trata sobre la desigualdad en América Latina, específicamente la desigualdad de ingresos. También, nos hablamos sobre otros problemas globales causados por la desigualdad, incluida la pobreza y la gente sin hogar. También, nos brindamos recursos a los que las personas pueden acudir en busca de ayudar con los problemas.
This is a code segment from an assignment on If Statements. The code prompts the user to enter a meal, and depending on which meal they enter it will give them suggestions
This is a code segment from an assignment on While Loops. The code continues to print double of a number until it is told to stop
This is the code from my Tell a Story. This code generates a story, along with 4 images, about a square living in a land of circles
This is the code from my UltraKarel Image. When ran, the code generates an image of a red track, complete with lanes and a finish line.
This is a code segment from Karel, where we had to make her dig underground using functions
This was a task where we had to make Karel make 2 towers out of balls
This is an extention of the 2 towers, where we had to add comments between the lines to show that we understood
This was using comparison operators, and compared a random number 1-6 and if they were the same it printed doubles
Mandalas are geometric designs or patterns that are used in many spiritual traditions. They are created by crushing marble into sand, and adding different colors, which represent different characteristics of deities. They are related to world civilizations because they were first created in the first century. I see patterns, repetition, and balance, which are Principles of Design. A mandala could be used to represent an atom by making the outer layers the valence electrons, and the center the neutron cloud.
Use this sticker as you seek understanding of the assignment or problem. Typically this will come from the community, your instructor, or your own observation. You must completely understand the objectives of the project to be successful, so this step is crucial. Develop active listening skills! Entry events for a project are usually a great place to start!
Use this sticker as you examine a problem from all angles. Ask questions, observe people, situations, and artifacts. Develop empathy for the problem that people facing the situation are experiencing. Find out what you know and what you need to know. Explore all of it!
Use this sticker as you are discussing and exploring ideas for how to solve a problem. Record these ideas quickly. Ideas may come in the form of graphic organizers, notes, drawings, outlines, or video blogs. Remember to seek feedback before progressing to the next step (then use the Evaluation/Modification sticker).
Use this sticker as you share your more formal ideas--3-d prototypes, mock-ups, drafts, skits, simulations, and storyboards. Remember to seek feedback before progressing to the next step (then use the Evaluation/Modification sticker).
Use this sticker when you are evaluating your decisions at each step in the process. When you note a user’s feedback also note what you intend to do about it going forward.
Use this sticker to explain how you are trying your prototype with real users. Try it out and note the way it performs and is understood by a real audience. Explain methodology and note observations.
Our ultrasonic sensors work by sending ultrasonic waves towards an object, and reporting back the time it took for it to come back. Ultrasonic waves. The sensors expel ultrasonic waves, which is caused by the trigger pin, and the echo is received by the echo pin. Humans can't hear ultrasonic waves because they are out of our audible hearing range. The sensor also provides a non-contact range between 2cm and 400cm(around 13ft), and a measuring angle of 15 degrees. The way the distance is calculated is by multiplying the speed something travels, by the time it took. For sounds, the speed of sound is used for the speed.
Distance = 343m/sec(speed of sound) * 1 second
This means that something is traveling 343 meters in 1 second, but if 1 second is the time it took for an echo to be received, then you can divide it by 2 to get how far away the wall is.
343/2 = 171.5m/sec
This means the wall is 171.5 meters away.
Today we table read our scripts. We also recived feedback on our table reads, and used that feedback to better our scripts.
Plot diagrams are used to plan out a story. You use exposition, the rising and falling action, and climax to plan and explain the plot.
Making art this way is like a scientific experiment because you have to follow the instructions. For example, when your doing a science experiment, you have to follow the instructions or else you will not get the correct result. In this art style, you have to follow the instructions in order, or else some lines will overlap where they shouldn’t.
In my opinion, art can be anything. Whether that be a drawing, sculpture, or a random assortment of items; it just has to have character and creativity. You can also find different subjects in art. For example, you could break down a element into its protons and electrons, and create a model. To some people, it might just look like a bunch of balls and rods, but once you tell them its an element, it creates a whole different way of looking at it.
