Here at the start of March, although the skies have been bleak, our students are shining brightly! This quarter, we've been working on making connections between equations and how to translate that to a graph. Many of our students have seen how graphs help us visualize information and make plans.
|
We asked one of our students, Alex C., what he thinks about what we've been learning:
|
|
"I've learned how to better understand equations and the fundamentals of it. How it works. I really like Math Lab because of that. Other teachers sometimes just give you the equation, but we learn how the formulas work, how we apply, and how they connect to the real world. I'm starting to realize that if I track the time I spend on the bus, I can find the quickest route. So I can sleep more!"

In their US History classes, Sophomores are beginning the unit on global conflicts. Beginning with WWI, we will look at conflicts and how they have shaped our country and the rest of the world. Students will be researching the effects of conflicts like WWI, WWII, The Cold War, Vietnam, Korea, Afghanistan, and hopefully what is happening in the world around us today. Through their survey of conflicts over time students will be encouraged to develop their own areas of interest and specializations, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding of international politics and diplomacy.
|
In AP U.S. History students are going through a writing intensive portion of the course to get ready for the AP test on May 5th. You may see AP students walking around the halls with their brains fried and hands sore, if you do please give them a shout out and pat on the back, they’re almost at the finish line!

Sophomores have reached the end of their Personal Project experience! Since October, sophomore students have been researching, exploring and creating as part of their Personal Project experience. After presenting their products that they made, which ranged from homemade video games to cooking videos to architectural layouts, students wrapped up the project with a reflective paper. These papers will be sent to the IB to get graded after being assessed internally by their mentors. As a reminder to families, this Personal Project final paper submission is one of the criteria for students to participate in Half Cap at the end of the year, a sophomore celebration that marks the halfway to graduation point!
|
Congratulations to all sophomores who completed the project! We are proud of you!

¡Los estudiantes de décimo grado han llegado al final de su experiencia de Proyecto Personal! Desde octubre, los estudiantes de segundo año han estado investigando, explorando y creando como parte de su experiencia de Proyecto Personal. Después de presentar los productos que hicieron, que iban desde videojuegos caseros hasta videos de cocina y diseños arquitectónicos, los estudiantes terminaron el proyecto con un papel reflectante. Estos documentos se enviarán al IB para que los califiquen después de que sus mentores los evalúen internamente. Como recordatorio para las familias, la presentación del trabajo final de este Proyecto Personal es uno de los criterios para que los estudiantes participen en Half Cap al final del año, ¡una celebración de segundo año que marca la mitad del camino hacia la graduación!
|
|
¡Felicitaciones a todos los estudiantes de segundo año que completaron el proyecto! ¡Estamos orgullosos de ti!
