print ("Coding.")

-
For this unit of Coding, we looked at python coding in trinket.io. We learned about input, print, random, and math function. We practiced coding using Codeskultpture and trinket.io. For this AP, we were asked to develop a python code calculator. I decided to focus on creating a calculator that allows users to easily calculate compounding interest. The second part of this AP was to create a form letter that we could use. I created a form letter for students to submit feedback and questions to the GCE student council. Check out my codes and see how they turned out. 


Student Council Letter Form



Compounding Interest Calculator


Overall this AP was very helpful. I was able to code a calculator to help with my economics class which was really nice. I did have to do some research in order to get the calculation that would allow my code to work. I also had to do research to figure out how to change the final amount into currency form so that it would show up in money form. Once I got a hang of the formula for compounding interest, it was easier to put the calculator together and code it. At first, I was trying to create a mad libs parody, but then I changed it to an input form. This form was a bit difficult at first because I had to figure out how to correspond each input with its output at the very end. Overall it was a very interesting and fun experience. I will definitely be using python code to help create things in the future.

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.

Bitter Battle Between Sun and Moon

Hello! My first Humanities class of the year is Stories. In this class, we learned about etiologies, adjectives, adverbs, similes, metaphors, sentence structure, and proper grammar. To prepare for this class, over the summer we read Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston. We also had our first FE where storyteller came to talk to us about descriptive writing and how we could better our AP's through storytelling. For our second FE, we visited the Field Museum and learned about the origin stories within other cultures at the museum. For our first AP, we were tasked with creating our very own etiology stories. We are doing this AP to show our understanding of etiologies and storytelling as well as proper grammar and sentence structure. I hope you enjoy my story as much as I do!
