Ratios and Rates Race Car Project

March 13, 2023 /

For our math unit on ratios and rates, we did a project where we come together in teams to participate in a race. We make our own vehicles and we have to calculate our rate of speed, and predict when each person and our group will finish the race. The team that finishes closest to their predicted time wins. Our calculations where a bit off at the start, so we changed our walking speed. Even though we managed to finish pretty close, at the last part, we walked too slow, so we missed by 2 minutes.

Our Storage Box

February 27, 2023 /

We are designing a storage box for Yun Chiang.

We are using recycled cardboard for the box.

We are using utility knives, markers, and rulers to draw out the places we should cut.

We first use the markers to draw out where we cut using the template, then we cut dots into the cardboard to help us fold. We then cut out the box and fold it along the dotted lines. We then use hot glue to secure the box.

We put the hot glue guns on foam boards to prevent the glue from messing up the table, and we point the knife down and away from us when cutting.

We have learned how to cut cardboard using utility knives, and how to keep yourself safe from getting injured.

My Board Game

February 15, 2023 /

This is my unfinished board game design. It looks somewhat like battleships, but I plan to change it to a more snakes and ladders like design. I plan to use wood for the board, and 3d print the pieces.

56 ethnicities project

January 19, 2023 /

In design tech, we did a project where we were assigned one of the 56 ethnicities in China. We had to make a video where we had to introduce our ethnicity in under 30 seconds. The video wouldn’t load in so here’s a picture.

 

All About Me

January 17, 2023 /

This is the all about me poster that I made using the design principles of contrast, alignment, repetition and proximity. I didn’t use text because I thought it would ruin the look of the soccer ball. I let the soccer ball and my name overlap to create a 3d feel, and I tried to place the other objects that represent me closer and more in alignment with each other.

 

My Snowflake Made in Inkscape

December 8, 2022 /

This is a snowflake I made in Design Tech using Inkscape. I used lots of spirals and inverted stars to make a snowflake and put multiple copies of it around a central star. (it almost crashed my laptop) I am planning to add more color and variety to it in the future.

 

 

Welcome to Your New Portfolio!

December 7, 2022 /

Why have a digital portfolio at SAS?

Creating a portfolio, or blog is a great way to collect all the work you’ve done throughout your academic career. You can include academic, athletic, and personal artifacts or experiences that you want to share with a wider audience. This is a great way to organize all your learning in one place and you can take it with you when you leave SAS.  When you make your portfolio, you create posts that are categorized according to your subject. Some categories have already been set up for you, but if you need more categories you can add them as needed. It’s important that your posts have the following:

  • An engaging title – this should not include the name of the subject since this is referenced in the category. Think of this as the first opportunity to engage and hook your reader!
  • Body – this is where you share your learning. This should include a combination of text and media in the form of images, graphics, and embedded videos. You should always consider how your post looks to your audience. Is it engaging and organized? Do they want to keep reading?
  • Category – select one that has been set for you or add a new category. Posts can have more than one category e.g. Humanities and Myself as a Learner
  • Tags – create tags that can be used as keywords to describe your post. Tags help organize your post a little more! Aim to have 3-5 tags for each post. For example, if you are posting about a novel you wrote, you might want the following tags: #Fiction, #MurderMystery, #Theme, #PlotDiagram
