Our Awareness PSA basically talked about what most kids or teens today are sometimes are too shy about. It shed light on the statistics of reproductive health and some benefits from it. So I decided to do the topic of Reproductive health because firstly I wanted to do a topic that we really don’t know that much of. I wanted to also educate myself  on a topic like this that’s very under-looked compared to many others. I contributed to my group by doing everything visually and video wise. I helped bring the picture together as well as help conduct some of the interviews. I feel as though we did well by finding out resources that were trustworthy. I think the honesty and comfortless within our interviewers especially with a topic that’s so embarrassing for some they did very well with speaking on with their own prior knowledge. If I could do this again I would try and make it more entertaining for younger viewers so that it was seem as though they are just being talked at. I want them to understand by being entertained if they find little scripts or methods for them to be entertain it will be something they will take with them for the rest of their lives. The most meaningful thing about our PSA would have to be the authenticity and realness of our interviews it’s not as if they were planned or rehearsed they were talking from experiences and using the utmost honesty.

Día de los Muertos

Día de los Muertos is one of the most celebrated holiday in the Mexican culture. It’s a day where we celebrate the lives of our loved ones who we have lost. At first I thought it was just a sad and creepy day for everyone but when I actually got to watch a few videos and learned more information about the holiday I realized that it’s not a sad day. It’s a day where you’re surrounded by food, music, family, and flowers. We get to cherish all the little things that make a person the way they are and what we took for granted about the person when they were alive. I love all of the creativity and thought that goes into Día de los Muertos from the different foods to the different ideas people use to present their ofrendas and altars. I know what you're thinking what in the world is an ofrenda? Well an ofrenda is a decorative stand where it would hold pictures of the one that passed with all the things that the person liked and enjoyed the most during their time here.

I was glad that I got to get a feel for this holiday and the way another culture deal with the feeling of losing a loved one. In class I based my project off of my grandmother her name was Carol Washington she was the third oldest out of eight children but she was the oldest out of four girls. She was born February 10, 1956 and past April 19, 2008 she lived until the age 52. She was born in North Carolina but was raised in city of brotherly love Philadelphia. Married my grandfather Raymond Washington in May 1972 and had five children. She was into dental and health care for many years and decided to pursue a career in dental.

Me and my Grandmother weren’t as close as when she was live but doing this project it showed me that we were just alike in so many ways. As a younger child I did not always get to see the greatest parts of my grandmother due to my behavior and what they would call a “smart mouth” and as old fashioned woman I was disciplined for my actions. However after participating in my first Día de los Muertos I have gotten to refresh and preserve my memory of her taught me that she means a great deal to me. Making me wish that I had more time to spend with a person who was just like me in characteristics and personality.

I decided to create my sugar skull in the remembrance of my grandmother because one she is my grandmother. Also, because she was my mother’s mother and my mother loved her dearly. My mother means a lot to me so I wanted to do this project for her to remember her mother since she can’t reflect herself doing this project. So I believe that my sugar skull reflects my grandmother because the colors I used reflected my favorite memory of her which was during Easter. Which she let me decorate all the eggs and hide my cousins and my brothers easter baskets all around the house. So I decorated my skull and mask in what I believe are easter colors. I also added braces on my skulls teeth because that reflected her being a dentist and when I think of dentistry I think of braces.  

Día de los Muertos open up my mind a lot for celebrating my loved ones because it let us do what our loved ones enjoyed. We can kind of get to walk into their shoes for the day by eating everything they loved and doing activities that they felt were stimulating and fun. I think that this is something that everyone could enjoy after they finished grieving or if they want to use this holiday as a grieving resolution. Because it lets you have a day where you get to talk about the person and get out all of your final cries till next year or their birthday. I feel as though this was a great exercise for the class it let us do exactly what the holiday encourage you to do. I would like to bring this holiday home with me because it let me get to know more about my grandmother even though I didn’t know her that well it gave me time to actually sit down with my mother and learn a lot more to my grandmother then what I knew previously.

Panegírico

Hola mi nombre es Lamira Jeffreys y yo hecho este panegírico para mi abuela. Yo tenía nueve años de edad cuando ella falleció.

Mi abuela Carol nació el diez de febrero de mil novecientos cincuenta y seis. Ella para realidad nació  en North Carolina pero creció en Filadelfia.

Ella fue una dentista y involucrados con atención médica. Ella fue la tres vieja de ocho niños.

Mi abuela fue de marrón piel y muy alta y flaca. Ella también fue enérgica y cariñosa.

En el momento no era lo suficientemente mayor para saber lo que estaba pasando. Yo aún tengo amor para ella pero son no como sólida debido a mi edad. La sola cosa yo deseo yo podía  tener con mi abuela es más tiempo. Más tiempo que yo podía usar a obtener a saber ella mejor.

En un sentido yo siento a la izquierda hacia fuera porque mi hermano y primos tienen mucho memorias de mi abuela pero yo no tengo muchos.

Así que cuándo de familia encantarse y hablar sobre ella yo no llegar a decir mucho

In this experiment we chose to light up a hat that wires are set up in parallel and series wires.  We chose a hat because its easy and its different and also if we would wanted to do something where you could also wear this designs. We both like creating things where you can interact with the object and is eye catching.You may ask what is art and we say art could be anything we can make it be. Even the littlest things that you may make or do is art whether you like it or not.

The process of this project was to figure out what object we wanted to make our circuit experiment on. The circuit experiment me and my partner decided to make a winter hat light up.The second, part was choosing what kind of lights we wanted to use. We chose to use lights with color to them to make our hat more interesting. The next, step to our process was to find out the resistance in each bulb. We used in total twelve different bulbs with many different resistances that were very hard to calculate at the time. The hardest part of the project was setting up our wires trying to find a way to make all twelve light light up. Which is not as easy as it seems it was actually harder than you think because the brightest we could get the lights could only be three in each series. After several days of thinking we finally made a way for the lights to light up we had to put our circuits in parallel and series.

We believe that our already known knowledge on something does change the we think or our understanding of it because we do get to learn more than we did before. Also, we get to compare our previous knowledge and see if what we may have been told was the right way or see if we may have missed something from before.
