Dia de los Muertos


Aunt Judy


For my project, “Día de los Muertos” I decided to do my Aunt Judy who passed away on April 19th, 2012 from breast cancer. She was only fifty six years old. She got diagnosed with cancer in 2002. She didn’t have trouble with the cancer till a few years later. So she had to go through chemo, surgeries, cutting her hair and so much more. Cancer takes a lot of people but my aunt kept working, and taking care of her own three kids by herself. In March of 2013 my aunt was put into hospice. This meant the person lives at home, and has to be taking care of my family or nurses. On April 18th, we knew this was going to be the last time we had with my aunt. She couldn’t talk, she was in so much pain.


People always ask me “What did your aunt mean to you?” “Did she teach you anything?” I always think about these questions and sit and reflect on what my aunt has taught me and how this whole death affected my life. My Aunt Judy meant the world to me. Every time she walked into a room, the vibe in the room would just get better. She was one of the most important/ influential people you’d ever meet. Two things she taught me is no matter what life throws at you always remember to stay on your feet, and always live life to the fullest because you never know when the last time you’ll talk to someone. My aunt judy was a hardworking, bubbly, caring, loving person.



I decided to make my sugar skull and mask in remembrance of my aunt to show people what she was like and what she loved to do. For my mask, I colored it pink, and left some parts of it white. The reason I colored the mask pink is because my aunt had breast cancer. Around the eyes of my masks, and the cheeks I added heart stickers to symbolize and show that I loved my aunt. I used purple and pink hearts because purple was my aunt’s favorite color.



The sugar skulls reflects my aunt’s passion for the beach. She loved going to Wildwood, New Jersey every year. She loved the ocean, the sand, the food, the arcades, just everything there. I painted my sugar skull blue and yellow to represent the ocean and the sand. I added blue feathers to also represent the ocean, and used a seashell because my aunt liked seashell

Día de los Muertos has opened up my mind a lot about celebrating loved ones who past away. Before I got this project I thought Día de los Muertos was a bad holiday because it was the day of the dead. In my opinion, death is a horrible thing and it’s hard to bring up the memories of the person, and what happened to them. Día de los Muertos made me think about how it is okay to be happy and celebrate someone who meant a lot to you. On this day you shouldn’t be sad they’re gone, you should be happy that you’re celebrating someone you loved. I think after doing this project I am going to start doing Día de los Muertos in memory of my Aunt and Grandmother because I knew they would want us to celebrate their life and keep their  

legacy alive, and not be sad all the time.

For this project we had to write about a loved one who passed away. We had to make a sugar skull and mask that represented our person who past away. This was my favorite Spanish project so far because it let us express our person, and show how much they meant to me. I miss my aunt everyday, and this project meant a lot to me.

College Video

This project is about making a video about a professional college interview. My favorite part was working with my partner and making the actual video. It was hard to create the actual video and putting it together without interruptions

The Internet and You

Slide 1 : Slide 1 states my name and the tittle of my creative project.

Slide 2 : Slide 2 represents Self-expression , which how the internet affects me. It lets me express my feeling through pictures and etc.

Slide 3 : Slide 3 represents how I think other are affected by The internet I think from cyber bullying others get sentimental and suicidal sometimes not all the time.

Slide 4 : Slide 4 represents my number one rule for others posting online to always be safe.

Powerpoint

For the Ser and Estar project, we had to create slides and make videos speaking in Spanish. We had to describe the different things that ser and estar were used for. We also showed examples by making conversation using those terms

Professional Interview

For this project our objective was to host a college interview between a college professor and a potential student. In the video I was the professor and my partner, Asmar Beyah was interested in attending our chosen school, which was Drexel University. We both asked each other questions that in some way referred back to neighborhood, likes/dislikes, family, food, clothing, etc. 

Spanish Book

This project was fun for me. I believe it was fun because I got to design my pictures and make them look the way that I wanted. Also my partner and I collaborated well so that we could get the project done. The point of the project was to see how much we knew and how much we could put on paper. It was good way for me to see how much I know.

Spanish Interview Video

​In this project we had to create a video about an interview that happens at a college. For this project I worked with Zack Waxler and we were able to get it done in time. We took several different takes to get it done and we finally got one complete run through that was acceptable. I think that the questions we asked were answered accurately in Spanish and the questions that were asked were sort of complex.

College Interview Video

This is a pair video I did for my Spanish 2 class. We had to do an interview for the college we chose (we did University of Pennsylvania). I was the headmaster and Haniah acted as the interested student. The video took a lot of editing and was a pain to film with all the retakes. I'm just glad it's all over.

Spanish Book Project

For this project, we were asked to create a children's Spanish book using parts of speech to tell a story and present it to our fellow classmate. This book must consist of at least 10 pages and use images and words to describe a doctors visit. Each pair of students worked together to create this childrens Story. Mecedes Smith and I worked together on this book called "Elena y el Brazo Roto". This story described a young girl named Elena, who broke her arm on a very important day. I hope that you enjoy this story. 

The Internet and YOU

Slide 1: This slide shows that you should be thoughtful about what you put on the internet because if you don't you can be hurting others and your online reputation.
Slide 2: This slide represents that you should show people love and you shouldn't make people think that you hate them because it can have serious consequences.
Slide 3:Creating mean things on the internet can have serious consequences. You can be charged for harassment or other serious chrages.
Slide 4: Be careful about what you post on the internet. If not it can affect the way people see you.

Dia de los Muertos

This project was in a way to help us embrace our bonds with our passed loved ones. As we went over this project I know that for myself it brought back many happy and joyful memories of me with my loved ones. This opened my eyes to see that there was more to my grandfather to just mourn over, that there was more celebratory memories also. Helped me to understand the true meaning of a bond.
