Humanism Infographic (Renaissance)

The 4 elements i picked to write in my infographic is: Hedonism, Individualism, Education and Invention.

The 4 I picked all show my opinion in Humanism, I think its very important to have theses elements in humanism.

For Hedonism, I give a 3/5 rank. I think it’s very important to help ourselves in which is needed, and work for a purpose, but also to help others, and not only have one purpose to work/do “things”.

For Individualism, I give a 4/5 rank. Even though I am not a person that is very individual, but i still understand that when people are working by themselves more work gets put in, and there are less distractions and disagreements.

For Education, I give a 5/5 rank. I very much believe in education and thinks that everyone should have the right to have education and learn important lessons. Education helps people become, individual, and makes sure they can be.

For Invention, i give a 4/5 rank. Inventions that were created back before are a very much help to now-days, (eg. the printing press for books, or the telescope for science learnings now-days). It also shows education held, as you would need it to invent/create things.

“Blue Suede Shoes” (Thank You Ma’m)

September 9, 2022 / Amy / 0 Comments

EXTERNAL (character to character) CONFLICT:

An external conflict started at the beginning in the book “Thank You Ma’m” where the young boy Roger tries to steal the woman’s pocketbook. In the Found Poem, I highlighted parts like “woman with purse” in the beginning she was walking on a lane with her purse. Then, “a boy ran and tried to snatch” is when the boy spots the purse and tries to snatch it. And then “boy fell, ran, woman kicked and shooked boy” is when the boy couldn’t get the purse the strap of the purse broke and he fell, after the woman was mad and she used violence to the boy. My poem connects to my picture because, they conflict is because this boy wants to buy blue suedes shoes, but he doesn’t have the money, he also can’t ask from his family, so he chooses to steal from someone random. My picture is a pair of blue suedes shoes and the color I used to highlight is also blue. So my picture and poem are connected.

One thing I’d like to change is the awkward way it looks. Now it’s just a piece of cloth hanging from cardboard, and it does not look really nice, I could change the cloth and the way it hangs better.

My biggest success is that the cloth did not fall from the cardboard and that the cloth was stuck on the cardboard ceiling well,that it looked decent.

My Cardboard Arcade Design

June 2, 2021 / Amy / 0 Comments

One thing I’d like to change is the size of the hole in the donut hoops, because as we were testing our game, we found out that it was basically impossible to score a point, and as we observed, we saw that because that the holes were too small it would not fit perfectly through the cone.

My biggest success was the decoration on the hoops and base, because we used a lot of different colors on each design, even though we did not have a lot of time to decorate, we still found out a way to color it without something messy like paint. The base was a nice blue and had pink, purple and blue “sprinkles” ( made of paper strips ) all over it. And our donut hoops had only two icing colors though. Pink and Purple. The pink ones had two different colors for sprinkles and the purple one’s had two other different colors for sprinkles on it too.

One concern that was shared with me was that I was scared that in the middle of playing, the game would fall apart or the cones would fall. But, gladly , nothing like that happened while they were playing. I was also scared that our game would be to hard and no one would play it but actually they loved it ! The line for our game just got longer and longer.

Design Reflection

The problem we are trying to solve is how we can make a cup of hot water stay warm longer.

This is how we made our cup warmer: First we cut two rectangles, three cup lids which is three circles and we also cut three small rectangle that fits around the circle, they are all EVA foam. We also used some Velcro and a lot of cotton balls also hot glue.

Then we need to put cotton balls in between the two rectangles and glue it together so it looks like a long pillow, after that we glue one cup lid to a circle piece of cardboard and glue a circle piece of alum foil on the other side of the cardboard x2. Then we put alum foil on one of the sides of the long pillow too, after that we wrap the long pillow, around the cardboard. Then we put Velcro on both sides of the long pillow (there should be a place that has no foam) , we stick Velcro on one side of the rectangle and the other side should be stuck to the cup and we do this twice and one the other side of the cup should have Velcro on too so it can stick together. Lastly, we wrap the last rectangle on the other cup lid, and we’re done.

One regarding for my cup warmer is that its looks are really good.

One claim about my cup warmer is that it needs some improving in the fitting good part because we accidently glued the bottom wrong, so it makes the cup look a bit crooked.

One thing I’m proud of is that our cup warmer kept the heat level really hot the whole time. One thing I would do differently is to change the cardboard to something that would not turn wet when it touches water.
