I have a Question?

Forbidden books are books or other printed works such as essays or plays which are censored or banned by law. The practice of banning books is a form of censorship, from political, legal, religious, moral, or commercial means. Censorship refers to the examination of media including books, periodicals, plays, motion pictures, and television and radio programs for the purpose of altering or suppressing parts thought to be offensive or to be inappropriate for the consumer. Common reasons for materials being challenged include violence, racism, offensive language, sexually explicit content, and is regarded as unsuitable for the age group it is marketed towards.

Socrates was a classical Greek philosopher credited as one of the founders of Western philosophy. He is considered the father of western philosophy. Plato was his most famous student and would teach Aristotle, Aristotle would then go on and tutor Alexander the Great. The Socratic dialogue is a form of a cooperative argumentative dialogue between individuals, based on asking and answering questions to spark critical thinking and to draw out ideas and presuppositions any of the individuals may have. The Socratic method was considered dangerous because it was considered a way to corrupt the minds of the youth. It questioned the way of peoples lives and caused the people of Athenians to question their current society and gods. For our action project, we had to take part in a Socratic dialogue. We wanted to focus on the current environment between us as teenagers, and how we connect with our society. We wanted to focus on how we now connect with technology and social media being a big part of how our society works today.

I have included my video interview below, I hope you enjoy it!

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
