My Truth

In class, “Who Am I?” we have been talking about Truth (The reason why I capitalize the "T" in "Truth" is because Truth has importance and has a meaning just like how our names have the first letter capitalized) and what it means to us and what is our own personal Truth. We would have class discussions about our own experiences that have impacted us as a person. We have been also reading a book called "Sophie's World" which relates to the class many ways. We have been also studying some philosophers, such as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, etc. We have been talking about their allegories and how they might connect to us. We even went on an exciting FE to the Goodman Theater to watch the play "The Blind Date." The reason why we went there is because it talks about Truth, which is what we are focusing on in class. We had a special guest come in named Katie Moody who is a dog trainer. We had her come in so she can teach us about behavioral actions t

We Naturally Pass Gas

In the freshmen class, Fuel we learned about how fossil fuels effect the Earth. We also learned what types of fuels are better to use for the environment. In class we were assigned a project where we were pretending to sell fossil fuels. We were able to choose from natural gas, oil, and coal. I chose natural gas as my fossil fuel we also had to record the usage of natural gas that the US uses and also choose another country to compare them. While doing this we also learned how to calculate our slope and our equations we used to graph our data. While learning all of this we went to visit Tesla. The reason why we went to Tesla is to see other types of energy we can use besides fossil fuels. It was an amazing and fun experience to learn about fuels that are able to use that are better for the environment.
