How My Dream Became A Reality

One thing that I have been constantly working on throughout the year that hasn’t been posted on my blog here, is my Performance Growth Plan. The goal of PGP is to help us PLP learners find a way to achieve more through a process of expanding what we already know about goal setting and self…

Thinking Ahead…

For the past few weeks, we’ve been focusing on something a little different in Maker: Career Life Education – or CLE for short. As it’s name entails, this short unit is cantered around learning about future career and life opportunities. To do this however, we first need to learn more about ourselves, in order to…

The People’s Podcast

Spanning two months, our latest Humanities unit has just been capped off. Titled, “The People’s Podcast”, and centred around the topic of minorities in Canada, our job was to create a group podcast highlighting a specific minority in Canada. Prior to actually completing the podcast though, we had to learn more about what a minority…

Telus vs. Rogers

In scimatics, we just finished the second part of our linear equation project; Cell Phone Systems. After concluding Flow Like Water, it was time to expand our knowledge of linear equations by solving with equations. The driving question for this unit was How can we use systems of equations to determine the least expensive cell…

Glaciers & Graphs

In the weeks leading up to Spring Break, our time in Scimatics class was taken up by our project all about linear equations. Tasked with answering the driving question; how can we use linear equations to predict how a body of water will change over time, me and Logan partnered up and got to work….

I have written multiple posts about DI in the past, and they all exhibit the same feelings towards the event; I never look forward to it, but…

Very Very Reactive

Ever since the completion of our algebra unit, our time up in Scimathics has been spent learning about chemistry, and working to create presentations about a reaction of our choice. This was basically our first time doing chemistry, and I was looking forward to getting to do some super sciency science stuff for the first…

The Great War: Canada’s Legacy

As our latest Socials unit has come to a close, it is once again time to reflect. Since the beginning of the new year, we’ve been working hard learning about WWII and podcasts with the end goal of creating individual podcasts about the war. I was super excited for this unit from the beginning as…

Food, Filming, and Freezing Fingers

As part of our Cray Cray Yay Yay unit, PLP 10 took a trip down to Seattle to explore what it had to offer in terms of craziness. From crazy mindsets to crazy innovation, this city just south of us had everything we could have asked for to help us get a grasp at what…

Disregarding Doubt

IIf you have been following my blog since the beginning, by now you may have seen a pattern in terms of what kind of work I, alongside my classmates, are doing at certain times of the year. Within PLP there are a few annual traditions that we always know are coming, yet they still remain…
