CHRISTMAS AROUND THE WORLD

Today in our cool to be kind C.I.P group we have been talking about Christmas since it is just around the corner. We had been doing some research about what other countries do for Christmas for every Christmas is different and unique.

C.I.P - Kindness Banner

For the last two weeks, we have been working on planning, drawing, and painting our kindness banners. We created these banners to put on the fences and walls of Hornby High to brighten people's days and create a better thought in people's minds. Since we have been working on making the world happier my group and I decided to put the world on our poster telling everyone to spread kindness around the world. We put the words in rainbow coloring and tried to make it as neat as possible. We all thought that the drawing was gonna be the hardest part but it ended up being the easiest. The painting on the other hand... not so easy. We had different ideas for different drawings. At one point we thought of restarting when we already were halfway done. In the end, our poster became what we had envisioned in our minds. Short, sweet, and inspirational... at least to us.

DRAMA - CHANGES AND CHALLENGES

Today in drama we were talking about who inspires us or someone we look up too. I chose Billie Eilish because she isn't afraid to speak her mind nor is she afraid of spiders. She is an amazing singer and most of my friends love her voice. I put her life story and why she inspires me.

Carbon Footprint - Climate Chaos

Today in science we got given a picture of a foot with circles and writing. We got told that it was our carbon footprint and we had to highlight everything we were doing in one color, but in another highlight everything, we want to do. I thought I was pretty good with my carbon footprint until I highlighted everything. Then I found out I am doing more damage in the world then fixing. The blue represents everything that I am doing and the revolting pink ( I HATE PINK ) represents what I can be doing.

Here are my pledges to make my carbon footprint

1. Recycle everything I can.
2. Check labels and try to buy local food.
3. Conserve more water.
4. Use less power.
5. Do more things with friends that don't leave a carbon footprint.

Digi Tech - Laser Cutting

This term for technology we have been learning how to use the laser cutter. Our teacher decided that it would be easier to start off by looking around two websites. They were Tinkercad and Thingiverse, we looked for keyrings and name tags. We first went into laser works and made our name tags to print out. Then we did a keyring with images we found on the internet. I made a cute, mini dino for my friend's keyring. We made different things every day using Laser Works. It was the site we always went on in every lesson.
