For this project, I chose to analyze the song "2 You" by Mariah the Scientist. I selected this song because I found it relatable and it has a strong emotional structure. While analyzing it, I looked at the lyrics and how the artist expresses feelings and tells a story through the music. This project helped me better understand how songs can communicate emotions and connect with listeners.
For this project, we created an All-American food commercial using the song "How to Make America Great Again". Our group chose Chick-fil-A as the fast-food restaurant to feature in the commercial. We designed the commercial to match the theme of the song while promoting the restaurant’s food and brand. This project helped us be creative, work as a team, and learn how music and advertising can work together to grab people’s attention.
After reading The Crucible, I wrote an essay comparing the witch hunts in the play to real-world problems. I compared the fear and accusations in the play, which are based on the Salem witch trials, to the panic that happened during COVID-19 and the accusations in the YSL RICO trial. In my essay, I explained how fear, rumors, and pressure from society can lead to people being judged or accused without enough proof. This assignment helped me understand how the themes in the play still connect to issues in the modern world.
