Hi everyone me welcome back to another blog post. In our most recent project we explored lots of themes into the 1950’s, and how we live different lives from the people back then. Our final product for this project was a Radio Play. Now you might be n king is, “what is a radio play??” Well a radio play is basically a bunch of people in a booth telling a story with lots of details, and sound FX. Let me give you some back story. 

We started off this project by first going over some of our understanding of Canada in the 1950’s and how things were starting to change. We looked at how different minority groups were starting to stand up to the government and fight for the rights they deserve. One really interesting person we learned about was Viola Desmond, a Black Privilege activist and change maker. When she was in Halifax in 1946 she was arrested for sitting in the wrong part of the movie theatre and charged with Tax evasion. This was because back the they segregated white people from everyone else. She didn’t agree with this and so she decided to take a seat in the better seats, the White people seats. After they threw her out of the theatre they charged her in court and she had to pay 26$, which nowadays would add up to around 368$. That’s a lot of money for sitting in the wrong seat. This really stood out to me even for back then. If a little thing like sitting in the wrong seat can accuse a whole Nation to start a Black Lives Matter movement, what would something bigger than that would have caused?

To study for the radio play we watched the film Happy Town, where two teenagers from the 21st century are sucked into a 1950s radio play, and end up fixing the city. In this film they touched on topics of cultural diversity, women’s rights, and change. Our class decided to base our radio play off of this. We were each assigned different parts of the script to right. We learned how to satirize sentences as well as use sound FX to create a convincing story. For the presentation day, I wasn’t actually there. Unfortunately I wasn’t in the play but that was ok because I feel I helped a lot in the process of making the script among other things. The actual play went suer well and I think my whole class is proud of it.

Overall I thought this project was fun and challenging in any ways. I found it hard to lean into my strengths in this project, but made up for it by learning new skills. To answer the driving question for this project, ‘How do we use a satirical radio play to communicate the shifts in Canadian society following WWII?’ I think the best way to answer this is a break down. The satiric radio play touched on many topics of controversy while still keeping it light and funny. As well, we showed how people changed and grew post WWII and gained a greater insight into the lives of people back then. I really enjoyed the parts of the project I was here for and would totally do it again!

Welcome back to another blog post! In our most recent project, we were tasked with creating a unique podcast about a life-changing experience. I really enjoyed this project  because it allowed me to showcase my strengths and share my passions with both my classmates and teachers in a creative way. 

For my podcast, I chose to focus on my experience at Field Hockey Nationals 2024. It was an easy topic for me to write and talk about because of how impactful the experience was. Competing at Nationals was truly life changing not just because of the tournament itself but because of everything that led me to that moment. I’ve also been watching my brother compete in national and international field hockey tournaments since I was a kid, so finally getting the chance to experience it for myself made it even more Awsome.

The actual process of creating the podcast took longer than I expected. One of the biggest challenges, was adjusting my original idea to align with the structure and requirements  set by my teachers. However, these revisions ultimately made my podcast more exciting and engaging. One of the highlights of the project was including  an interview with my former Team BC coach, Jérémie Leclair. It was an incredible opportunity to discuss Nationals with him, given how involved he is in the program and how much experience he has in high-level field hockey. His insights added a great perspective to my podcast.

To listen to the podcast type ‘The Big Stage Ep.1’

Overall, I really enjoyed working on this project because it allowed me to explore my passion for field hockey while improving my communication and storytelling skills. I also gained a deeper understanding of what goes on behind the scenes at Nationals and within the field hockey program as a whole.

Thanks for reading my blog post! I’ll be back with another one soon.

Thank you for coming to my presentation of learning. I am the expert on my own learning. I am also responsible and accountable for my own learning. You can expect me to give an honest evaluation of my progress. We will discuss my strengths and opportunities for growth. Thank you in advance for listening and for offering feedback that I can use to improve as a learner.

Welcome back to My Presentation of Learning or MPOL. This reflection is being written in early March for later context. This year for our MPOLs instead of having a outline that we have to follow, we get to chose The template that we write in so it fits our specific type of learning better. The way I will write my reflection in is not in project by project form, but rather by talking about the biggest strategies and problems I’ve encountered so far. So, without further ado, my 2025, Gr.10 MPOL’s.

The first thing I would like to talk about is how developing strategies and leaning into my strengths more has benefited me in more than just my academic endeavours. I realized early on this year that Gr.10 is tougher than last year, and that even though I might not like it, I have to put more effort into my academics. Looking. Back onto my first blog post for the year I can see that I already talked about this, but it is definitely worth it to talk about this again. When I talk about learning strategies, I don’t just mean using Things, or taking breaks, like I have talked about at every reflection of learning for the past two years, no I mean specific strategies that help me. These strategies often appear to be small things, but do help a lot. One of the biggest ones that I Would like to talk about is using music to help me. Almost everyday this year I have brought my overhear headphones to listen to music when I work. I have been doing this because I started to realize that we get a lot more work blocks this year, since often the lessons and assignments take longer than last year. There is something about listening to music that helps me zone out everything else out so that I can focus on my work, while also getting the benefit of listening to music which again, is something I like.

The other thing that has worked for me this year is leaning into my strengths and passions, especially in team or group work. What I mean by this is, when I work in a group or even by myself, I try to create an environment where I can show my strengths and passions, while also following the guidelines. This has helped me this year, because I find the given topic or assignment  easier to understand while also learning whatever it is I need to learn, in a way that supports my style of learning.

Now that we have talked about some positives of the year so far, its time to start talking about some areas where I could grow and learn. In my opinion this is the most important at of this whole presentation, because this is where I can honestly reflect on what I have not been doing to good on lately. The first thing I would like to talk about is something that my teachers are all to familiar with me talking about. It is my often lack of enthusiasm. This is something I have been working on since I started high school I think. This year I have been trying more to pay attention and go out of my way to participate in school and leave my comfort zone, which in some ways has been working, but its still definitely a challenge for me. I don’t want to talk so much about this because for the most part it hasn’t changed from last year and the year before, but I will end with saying that I am making a constant effort to put my hand up or participate in table group talks. 

The other thing that has been setting me back this year is how fast it has gone by. It feels like yesterday that I walked into the doors for the first day of Gr.10 and now we are more than half way through the year. I remember when I was in Elementary School I used to wish for the week to go by so I could get to the weekend. I used to say to myself “it’s Monday, so Tuesday’s tomorrow the Wednesday and then we are already half way through the week. After Wednesday it’s Thursday and you can look forward to Friday.” Almost to those exact words. Now I want school to slow down because I am starting to realize that life is getting serious and these are the last two years with my friends and teachers, and that has been destroying my mental state. It throws me off and I feel like the bell always rings to early and it stresses me out.

I don’t know if this is relatable, but it has been something that takes up a lot of my conscience.

The last thing that I can improve on for the second half of this year is not taking as many risks as I could. This isn’t that big of a concern for me because it necessarily setting me back, I’m just not doing as much as I possibly could. For the next half of the year I can improve on this by reminding myself that taking risks is the best way to create new opportunities to grow as a learner and a person in general.

Overall, this half of the year has been pretty casual for me. I don’t feel like I am falling behind at all, but I also don’t feel like i’m doing the best I could. Obviously their have been lots of personal wins and goals achieved, but their have also been lots of personal set backs. As you  can see earlier in this presentation, I have identified what is holding me back and how to try to fix these problems. However this isn’t just a thing for me to accomplish, I also will need help from my peers and family to get these problems resolved. I don’t quite know how you can support me with these setbacks, because there is no point saying “keeping me focused” or “reminding me what my goals are”, because I know that wont help, we’ve tried that before. 

As I start to finish this school year I am looking forward to Gr.11 while also trying to savour every moment of Gr.10. There were points this year where I have not wanted to do anything, even the stuff that I like, but when I come to school I get a break from all the stress and pressure from sports, finding work, and more. I find it hard to express my relationship with school, but I do know that it’s is constantly changing in a positive way. Thanks for reading my Mpol 2025, see you all at Tpols, 2025

Welcome back to another blog post, today I will be talking about the past Destination Imagination Regionals (DI), that happened earlier this month. We have been preparing for DI in class for about a month and a half before the tournament, and well let’s just say this tournament was a great learning experience. A really really good learning experience.

Let’s back it up a bit. Last year was my first time doing DI. Last year my group came first in every aspect of the tournament for both the Regional and Provincial competitions with minimal effort. This year we knew that we would be doing DI again, and I personally was not super excited, because it pushes you to do work outside of school and go outside your comfort zone to present. You might be like, why doesn’t he like that? Well personally I don’t really know. I don’t think its that I don’t like going outside of my comfort zone necessarily, but more that the stigma around DI  seeps in to my mindset, souring these aspects of the tournament.

Now that we know a little more about my mindset going into the tournament, let’s get a little more into how the process of getting into our groups and learning how to effectively collaborate together went. In my group none of us got the group members we had asked for, but this wasn’t that big of a problem, as we were mature and decided to rise above that fact instead of dwelling on it. My group is all boys, 4 in grade 10, and two in grade 9. Us grade 10’s knew that we had to rise up as the leaders and so that’s what we did, quickly developing a plan to keep us on track and aware of what was going on. Spoiler alert, this didn’t work at all. We assigned ourselves different parts of the challenge, I had to deal with a part of the machine.

Fast forward to the tournament date, we were unprepared and stressed. it was only about a week before the tournament that we had realized that there was a lot of work to be done and a lot of tasks that we thought were completed that weren’t. This left us scrambling at the last minute to get stuff done that we thought was already done. At one point we are so close to disqualification because we had not handed in forms and other things, that my teachers had to directly reach out to specific members of the group through text messages. The day of the performance we actually got a lot of work done and came up with a machine that we believe worked. At the actual performance, no one knew their lines and only one of the two machines worked. This was a big disappointment for us in the group especially the grade 10’s, as we believe that this was done and prepared. We had a very honest conversation after the tournament about what happened and why it happened and how we can improve. Our teachers are helping us along the way to this time.

Overall, it was a great learning experience because I never really been part of a DI group that fell apart that fast not much. I learned how to rise as a leader in short time situations and how stressful it could be. Learning how to lose is never easy, but I do believe that losing is the best way to learn. Regardless of our outcome I’m so proud of this group and can’t wait for the provincials!

Learning, Investing, and Smart Spending: My Journey as a Student

Being a student is an exciting yet challenging phase of life, especially when it comes to managing money. Between balancing school, work, and social life, it can be difficult to think about long-term financial goals. However, in school we’ve  recently taken an interest in investing, budgeting, and making smart financial decisions lessons that are already helping me navigate real-world financial challenges.

One of the best ways Ive learned about investing is through the Investopedia Stock Simulator. This game allows users to practice investing in the stock market with virtual money, mimicking real-world market conditions. I started playing because I wanted to learn how investing works without risking actual money.

At first, I had no idea what I was doing. I picked random stocks, hoping they would increase in value, but quickly realized that investing isn just about luck it requires strategy, research, and patience. Over time, I started studying market trends, reading financial news, and understanding different investment strategies. I learned about diversification, risk management, and long-term investing, which helped me improve my decision-making.

One of my biggest takeaways from the game was the importance of investing early. Even small amounts, if invested wisely, can grow significantly over time thanks to compound interest. This realization motivated me to start planning for my financial future, even as a student with limited income.

Another financial challenge we recently talked about is figuring out how to buy a car with minimal money. As a student, I don’t have a full-time income, so I knew I had to be strategic.

Heres what I learned through the process:

1. Setting a Budget Instead of focusing on the dream car I wanted, I focused on what I could actually afford. I factored in not just the purchase price but also insurance, maintenance, and fuel costs.

2. Considering Used Cars I quickly realized that buying a brand-new car wasn’t an option. Instead, I researched reliable used cars that had good mileage and a history of low maintenance costs.

3. Exploring Financing Options Since I didn’t have enough money to buy a car outright, I looked into low-interest student-friendly loans and used-car financing options. Some dealerships also offer flexible payment plans for students.

4. Negotiation is Key  I learned that car prices are often negotiable. By researching the market value of the car I wanted, I was able to negotiate a better deal.

5. Earning Extra Money To save up for the car, I took on side gigs like tutoring, freelance writing, and reselling items online. Even small amounts added up over time.

Ultimately, I found a reliable used car within my budget, and the process taught me valuable lessons in financial planning, negotiation, and patience.

As I learned more about investing and managing money, I realized that many of my peers were just as clueless as I was when I first started. In class we did presentations that talked about many finically minded topics.

A slide of my presentation:

Some of the lessons and questions I asked myself while doing this was;

Why start investing early?  The power of compound interest.

 Types of investments Stocks, index funds, ETFs, and bonds.

 How to research stocks Reading financial reports, following trends, and diversifying investments.

Avoiding investment mistakes Learning from common pitfalls like panic selling and chasing trends.

The best part of presenting is seeing people get excited about their financial future. Its rewarding to know that Im helping others make informed decisions about money, just as Ive been learning along the way.

Final Thoughts

My journey through the Investopedia Stock Game, buying a car on a budget, and presenting on investing has taught me valuable financial lessons that Ill carry with me for life. Investing, budgeting, and financial planning aren’t just for adults with stable incomes they’re skills that young people can start developing early.

If theres one thing Ive learned, its that small financial decisions today can have a huge impact on the future. Whether its investing a little bit each month, saving up for a big purchase, or helping others learn about finance, every step counts.

Im excited to continue this journey and see where it takes me. Have you ever thought about investing or making smarter financial decisions? Its never too early to start!

In our most recent project we started learning more about memorials and traumatic events that took place in Canada. My group chose to work on the Chinese Head Tax. We learned about what the Chinese Head Tax was and how it effected people then, and how it effects people now a days. We learned about how wrong this event was and how it should never be repeated again.

Our final products for this project where memorials that we would Walk through and express the wrongs that were committed on the Chinese people from 1885-1947. These memorials were small but very effective. We showed where in BC we would be so that it appealed to the right communities.

a photo of our memorial

I chose to make a memorial on the Head Tax because I was interested in it, as well as it potentially could have effected my family. My grandparents came over from China to Canada a mere 10 years after this event ended. If they had decided to go any earlier they would not have been allowed in the county even though they were just trying to find a new start for their young kids, including my dad.

Overall I think that this project did educate me about this topic even though I already knew quite a bit about it. I learned more about the communities and families that were unnecessarily destroyed during this period by the Canadian government. Our memorial was a good way to represent our feelings and thoughts around this topic, and understand the effects of this.

Welcome back to my third winter exhibition post! This year, I approached the exhibition with a clear understanding of what to expect and how to prepare for the challenges associated with it. I was determined to make the experience smoother for both myself and my team. The theme for this year’s exhibition was Marketing Me, which revolved around showcasing our personal strengths and ambitions to potential employers. Our final project consisted of booths that highlighted our interests and future aspirations. However, before diving into the exhibition itself, I want to reflect on the learning process we underwent leading up to the event.

Throughout this project, we had the pleasure of working with a new instructor, Mr. May, who guided us through half of the project. From the very first day, I was drawn to his unique teaching style, which I found refreshing compared to the other teachers in our Program for Learning and Performance (PLP). Mr. May’s approach made learning engaging. Together with Ms. McWilliam, whose teaching methods I was more accustomed to, they taught us valuable skills, such as how to craft an effective resume that truly reflects our strengths in an engaging and distinctive way.

For the exhibition booths, we were organized into groups based on our intended professions. This was not just an academic exercise; the underlying purpose of the exhibition was to network. I was happy to be placed in the health and sports group, as I had already planned to focus my booth on my past achievements and future goals in sports.

The exhibition night itself was a thrilling experience. I proudly displayed all my sports gear and wore my favorite jersey, which added a personal touch to my presentation. It was exciting to share my journey and passion for sports with attendees, many of whom were eager to learn more about my experiences and future aspirations. Overall, the project proved to be incredibly beneficial for me, as I was able to establish two valuable contacts during the night. Both indicated a strong interest in my plans related to sports and expressed a desire to connect further.

In retrospect, this exhibition was not just an opportunity to showcase our work; it was a chance for self-reflection. Engaging with others about my passion for sports allowed me to take a step back and evaluate my future after high school. The conversations I had during the exhibition prompted me to consider what path I want to pursue and how I can build on my accomplishments so far.

The key takeaway from this experience is the importance of effective self-marketing and networking

Well, welcome back to another year of PLP. This year we are in grade 10 so we have a little bit more expectation in all of our classes. We stated the year off with a bang! There wasn’t much time to settle into school this early as we got right to work on two projects. It was a bit confusing for me to get into the year because we are on a linear system, which means that we have eight classes a year which I have never had before. I am used to having four classes per half of the year, so balancing all of my projects has been a little bit if a challenge, but I’m figuring it out. 

Our most recent project, ‘Why Does the world Need More Canada?’, we learned about Canadas impact on many things kind of like what we’ve done before in Gr.9 in a few projects. I think one of the most interesting thing in this project for me was learning about world trade, and how Canada plays a big roll in supporting world trade. For this project we had to choose topics of interest and make a podcast about them. I would be lieing if I said I was surprised by this, as this is a classic PLP 10 project and both my brothers have done it. 

For my topic I chose Canadas impact on the world through film and how it has changed over the past 15-25 years. I don’t really know what sparked my interest in this project, but it turned out to be a great topic for me, because of my families unique links to film and film making. One of the biggest aspect of this project was a multi paragraph or essay composition of what we learned after researching our topic for a week or two. This is probably what I struggled with the most for a few reasons; one reason was that I find it hard focusing when I write, I always have but recently its been a little tougher than usual, this was a big challenge. Another big reason was I was getting lazy, I didn’t understand why I had to write all of this myself when I could just get AI to say what I was thinking in a clear manner too. I know this sounds ridiculous, but it was a big struggle for me and took a lot of self control not too. I’m sure these sound like really bad or silly reasons to struggle in this assignment, but they were very real for me.
My multi paragraph response:

During the making of my podcast I got the privilege to interview one of my families closest friends Jasmine Barry. her and Her family are so connected to film its kind of crazy. Everybody in her family is in some sort of film crew, weather its acting, producing, or even directing, there is over 10 different links to the film industry in just her direct family. We had a great interview, where we both learned a lot. She answered all of my questions, and gave my podcast the structure it needs.

The driving question for this project was, “why does the world need more Canada?” This is a tough question foor me to answer. It’s tough for me because I am so proud of this country and I could go on and on about how much better in my opinion it is than other countries, but that wouldn’t be very fair. I am going to try to answer this with a neutral perspective of a teenager that has just finished this project. I think the world needs more Canada because Canada gets stuff done. We make progress, even though we are often at a disadvantage. We aren’t as big as our American neighbours, but without us, America would sill be incredibly small and different. Canada supports so many counties and people that would be left unstable and unsupported otherwise.

Overall this project I really enjoyed the opportunity to learn ore about Canadians, and how we all make an impact ono the world. Balancing this project with all of my other classes and  projects was tough, but we got it done!

This project I really had to wake up and realize, “oh, school has started I need to start with it or i’ll fall behind!” This was a great starting project, I loved making the podcasts and can’t wait too make the next ones!

Thank you for coming to my presentation of learning. I am the expert on my own learning. I am also responsible and accountable for my own learning. You can expect me to give an honest evaluation of my progress. We will discuss my strengths and opportunities for growth. Thank you in advance for listening and for offering feedback that I can use to improve as a learner.

Welcome back to another one of my T-POLs. This year has been jam-packed with exciting and new opportunities for me, and in this presentation, I’ll be sharing some of them with you. Since my M-POL was only a few months ago, I will be repeating a couple of things I’ve said there and touching back on some of the experiences, good and bad, I’ve had earlier this year. This time around, I’m going to try to make my presentation a bit shorter, as last time I ended up speaking for 15 minutes compared to the 7 I was supposed to speak for. So without further ado, here are my 2024 T-POLs.

Engagement

This year, I’ve struggled significantly with learning engagement, which has slowed my progress. Most of my assignments have been at a proficient level, with only occasional assignments exceeding expectations. I realize this is due to my lack of effort, as I’ve been more focused on just getting by rather than truly trying and getting the most out of every opportunity. This issue has been a major challenge for me and one that I know I have to solve largely on my own. Understanding and overcoming this struggle remains a work in progress, and it will be a primary goal for me next year, as I know I can’t fix this problem overnight.

WWI

In our final PLP unit, we learned all about WWI and Canada’s impact on it, with our sights set on making a comic that would tell our story about WWI in an effective and helpful way. First though, we had to learn how to make a comic that could be clearly understood and enjoyable to read. Even though I really like comic books, it helped a lot that Mr. Harris is a comic book fanatic and shared with us his love for comics, both stories and layouts. For my story, I chose Wop May, a Canadian flying ace. He has been thought of by many to be the greatest pilot Canada has ever produced. He was in the last ever dogfight with the Red Baron, the greatest pilot to ever fly in either World War. I really liked him and his story because it was unique to other pilots and very heroic. In the middle of this project, I unexpectedly ran into quite a big problem. I broke my finger, so I was barely able to draw any of the sketches, as that required me to hold a pencil, which proved to be very, very hard. I figured a way around this by asking my friends and brothers for help, as well as drawing with my left hand. This ended up giving my comic a unique look to it while still telling the story I wanted to.

Loon Lake

Link to Loon Lake Post

One really big thing that we did this year was Loon Lake. At Loon Lake, we learned that our decisions can affect others around us in good and bad ways. These choices also shape our future. Even quick decisions can change someone’s life now and later. We focused on making positive decisions that would affect us in a way we would want to be affected in the future. This made a positive impact on me and I try to keep this in mind throughout my day.

This year our T-POLs are laid out a little bit differently. We were given a form to fill out with different categories, such as agency, self-regulation, preparation, and more. We were given prompts and had to check ourselves off in which we thought we were achieving either consistently, sometimes, or rarely. I think this was actually kind of cool because it gave me a perspective into how other people might look at my learning. Once we filled out the boxes, we were told to pick one in the agency category and two others in anything else. These

approaches to learning would have to be included in our T-POL, so this is what the next section of my T-POL will be.

Balance

Building off my last M-POL when I spoke about balance and how it is a struggle for me, this area became even more of a focus as I have missed a lot of school over the past few months due to sports because I was on the golf team and the track team. These sports meant I missed a lot of afternoons and full days of school. The challenge was making sure I got my work done to an adequate level. This was especially hard in subjects that I am not super interested in. I know that school comes before sports, but it is hard when I am not motivated.

Asking for Help

Something else that I have done that has helped me this year compared to last year is asking for support when it is necessary. What this means is I can acknowledge when I’m not doing an assignment to the level that it should be completed to and need help and where I can get help from. Most of the time help comes from my teachers, but it can also come from my family and my peers. This has been a very big step for me this year and I think it has shown in my work in a positive way.

Technology

The last thing I’m going to be talking about is my technology use. As you know, PLP is a program that is almost completely online, which means it is awfully easy to get distracted and play games or watch a show. Of course, we are not supposed to do this, but as I said, it is incredibly tempting and easy. This year I’ve done a great job of not doing that compared to last year because I have acknowledged that work is harder this year and it needs more attention than it did last year. I have no games on my iPad, and I think this has helped my work tremendously. It helps me stay on task, which is great as I understand what my teachers want of me more than some of my peers do.

Overall, I think that I am ready to move on to grade 10 not only because of my growth this year but also because of how I’ve acknowledged my struggles and learned how to support myself through these problems. Even in grade 8, I would’ve never been able to tell myself I’m struggling with this project and need help, though this year I can guarantee I’ve said that more than a few times. I also think that my grades have reflected my growth as a learner compared to last year. Through my projects, I have collected more than a couple of extending, with my lowest grade being proficient. I’ve had a really fun year and got to know some really awesome people, and I’m very excited for grade 10. I will continue to grow as a learner and learn more strategies to help me become a 100% exceeding student. I have learned that balancing sports and academics is harder than I once thought, but this balance is actually key to me being successful in both areas of my life.

In our most recent project we started learning more about Canadas impact on WWI. I chose to focus on A Canadian Pilot called Wop May, Who was in the last ever dog fight with The Red Baron. We learned about the key things Canada did in the War and how it made a impact, big or small to the story of our country. 

Our final products for this project where Comics that we would walk through Wops story and how it changed his life over the span of the war. This comic would be about 20 panels long and would go over the war and the story we made to help us learn about WWI.

The personI chose to study was Wilfred (better known as Wop) May. Wop was one of the best known pilots in WWI so everyone was kind of afraid of him. This made it quite easy to research him since there were a lot of sources about him. I learned a lot about how the old planes worked and often didn’t work because of how unstable there motors were. This was actually a massive problem in his last dogfight with The Red Baron, in this fight his guns jammed and made it nearly impossible for him to Sophie down The Red Baron, but he did it somehow anyways.

This was also our exhibition project which meant we had to present the comic to our parents and the general public. We set up our tables and pout decorations that matched our comics and the other people at our stations comics. This was really important because it really set the mood and helped us picture what it would be like in WWI. In the end the exhibition went really well, I got alot of people that came to my table, and I got to teach about WWI.

Overall I think that this project really helped me figure out what Can dads impact was on WWI. I learned a lot about how The aerial side of war caused tensions and fuelled a lot of the fight for WWI. It’s interesting to see how Canadian pride led to tension between countries and eventually big impact on war. While war can be motivating, it can also be dangerous for the future of countries if taken too far. This project has sparked my interest in studying WWI and its impact on the world.
