2019 Epilepsy Awareness Month PSA

-
Hi, my name is Cora. I have Epilepsy. I was diagnosed with epilepsy when I was four years old. Ever since birth, I always had trouble because of my epilepsy. Even though epilepsy has changed my life, it has also allowed me to find myself, epilepsy and all. With all of the support from my family, I am now thriving in my sophomore year of high school. With my family's continuous support, I am now one of the Epilepsy Foundation of Chicago Teen Advocates.

I took part in and help create the PSA below as an Epilepsy Foundation Youth Advocate, with Northwestern University's Coach Fitzgerald to help raise epilepsy awareness! This is running throughout November, Epilepsy Awareness Month.

Slowly Sloth

Hello! For the first STEAM class of the year, Population, we learned about taxonomy, set theory, quadrilaterals, and biology. To prepare for this class over the summer we read In the Shadow of Man by Jane Goodall.  We also went on our first FE to the Lincoln Park Zoo where we chose the animal we would study for our AP. We then continued to study our animal by visiting the  Field Museum to observe the taxidermy animal we had chosen. For our AP we had to create a project explaining the taxonomy of the animal of choice. I chose Hoffman's two-toed sloth because I think sloths are really interesting. In the project, you will read about Hoffman's two-toed sloth, its habitat, taxonomic categories, and the morphological traits that show the taxonomic categories. You will also learn about set theory and how my animal compares to other animals my classmates have chosen. I hope you enjoy it! CH.

Space Debris Science Conference

Welcome to the third action project for my STEAM class, Frontiers. This class is about exploration. This project connects directly to my second action project, Space Junk . For this action project, I had to create a poster based on a research paper I created this term. I choose my most recent paper on space exploration. In this paper, I choose to focus on space debris and how this affects space exploration. This poster summarizes my research paper.  CH."Space Debris Poster." Google Slides, 2022. I enjoyed completing this poster. I have a great interest in space, so putting together this poster was fun for me. I believed I have managed my time well with this project as I did include the feedback given to me by my teacher.

Coraline's Closet: The How-To Guide

Welcome to my last AP for Endurance. During this class, we learned about different individuals who physically and mentally endured challenges in order to survive or reach a goal. For our AP, we had to create a survival guide or how-to manual on something we see ourselves taking on and challenging ourselves with in the future. I choose to write my how-to guide about starting a clothing brand. I choose this as my topic because it is something I am really passionate about and could possibly see myself doing in the near future. I feel that I would have a lot of challenges if I were to take on this mission. After creating this guide, I can see that with the proper training and support I will excel. I am happy with how this project turned out. I hope that whoever reads this manual can learn something new. This is also my last AP for GCE. I am honored that it was from such a great class and project. Have a safe summer! CH. "Coraline's Closet." Canva logos, 2022. CH. "Surviv
