Cure AP #3



Cure AP #3


In  our STEM class Cure we are learned about more types of  ailments such as heart disease and arthritis. For this Action Project we made up a person and you pretend to be their doctor and tell them things like I suggest the patient should go to sleep earlier to benefit their health. My person went to the doctor because of joint pain and the doctor is going through what else might be happening like the risk of heart disease.

AP Screenplay Drama

Oskar Landise




In Drama we have been learning a lot about equality with men and women and how its changed over the years. For example we read a play called the taming of the shrew, a shrew is a small timid animal. They portrayed the women as shrews and how they all had to be tamed. Another play we read was called A Doll's House. This one was about how no one thought women could do anything and the main women proved them wrong by paying off a large dept which she hid from them they whole time. I learned a lot about the struggles that women had to go through back then. Things like being sold off to some man to be his husband whether you like it or not. Also how women can be just disregarded if they voice their opinion. In our Screenplay it is about three people in a cafe and they two men know each other. When the women gets in line one man knocks her out of they way and she is sick of being treated that way

In  our STEM class Cure we are learning about the many different ways to treat someone with a certain illness . For example, if you have a headache, would you be better off taking advil or tylenol? In this class we also learned about thing like the lock and key mechanism which is a metaphor for how your body fits substate into the enzyme. For this Action Project, we had to create a box showing one aliment and showing three ways to aid it. I choose headaches because they are very common and I wanted to learn more about ways to cure a headache. I choose three different compounds for relief, Advil, Axert,and ginger. Theses are all ways to treat a headache even though one is over the counter the other is prescription and the other one is available for anyone to get.

Sonnet Ap drama

Sonnet
Oskar Landise 

I am in a class called drama right now. We read a play called The Taming of the Shrew. This was about the patriarchal society  which means that the men had control and the women could do much if they were wronged. If the women acted up they were called shrews thich meant like an annoying person who didn't need to be recognised. So for my AP I wrote a sonnet to petrictio questioning him of why he acted in such a way to kate. 


Petricio sonnet  
Dear Petrucio why must you trifle
come, come, you wasp,” man that is pretty rude
I think You really should  think to stifle
Man I don't really get your attitude

Is it really fair to starve the woman.
Was it worth it when you hit your servants.   
What was your point, you know she is human
You aren’t even a respectful person.

Petruchio, you ceased her, that was mean
You turned Kate into someone else, how cruel
And you used her like a washing machine
And everyone thought that you were a fool

You wooed her in the beginning crazy
That was frivolous, just for a lady

Enucleation AP Cure

Oskar
Landise
Ap 1
Cure

In our class 'ure we are learning about different diseases and other problems but we have one main focus, how to cure them. Throughout this course already I have learned a lot. We went to the Museum of Surgical Sciences and we looked around and found out things like the first surgeries and the ancient ways for solving sickness. For this Action Project we had to choose a surgery and report on it. I did enucleation, which is the removal of eyes.  I did this because I found this to be really captivating, something as fragile as an eye and to just remove it. I found this very interesting and I wanted to know more.

AP #2 Forbidden books The Outsiders

Intro

For my Forbidden books class we learned about censorship and how it affects society. Some books we read were Fahrenheit 451, The absolutely true Diary of a Part-Time Indian, and the Outsiders. At one point all these books were banned. We also learned about the types of people to ban these types of books and that was really interesting it see their reasoning behind this. One of our FEs we meet this author who got her book banned from prisons. She told us how she was shocked about how this happened and her book was in a list of thing which were a lot more offensive. The other FE we went on was to a bookstore called Women and Children First. this was a kind of left wing bookstore that had a lot of books about gay rights and other stuff like that. One big thing that was banned was a book about Donald Trump that he didn't want published and they sold it there. I found this class to be very interesting.

The Outsiders 

Drug abuse and violence. It's interesting to think that's something so common to see on TV nowadays can cause a whole book to be banned. This book, The Outsiders took place in Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1965 but this is never stated in the book. The main character Ponyboy, is attacked by a group of Socs, which are the greaser’s rivals. These are the the the rich kids who life on the west side. The Socs, gang up on Ponyboy. Then they threaten to slit his throat.One night Ponyboy and his brother Darry (who kind of raised him) got into a big fight and Darry slaps Ponyboy and then Ponyboy runs away. When he was out he ran into some Socs in a park and got into a fight with them. Johnny who is a friend saves ponyboy from being drowned by killing one of them. After this they go to a guy named Dally who gives them money and a gun. He also told them that there is a church that they should hid out in. they stayed there for a few days until johnny decided it would be better if he just turned himself in. On the way out the church caught on fire and there were some kids in there. These kids were not greasers or Socs they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. So Ponyboy saves them but gets knocked out doing so. Johnny killing the Soc raised the tensions a lot higher and both sides were just waiting for something to happen.then darry the guy who helped johnny and Ponyboy hide robbed a store. The police ended up killing Darry because he wouldn't surrender.Also johnny died in gang fight which caused Ponyboy to pass out. When he woke up he had an agreement to stick with his brother Darry.When Ponyboy goes to school for his paper he writes this story. The theme to this book is to stay loyal to your brothers and the close ones around you and to not betray them. This book was considered to be controversial because it contained violence and drug and alcohol abuse and kids that came from broken homes. This book was banned for reasons that are common themes of books and TV shows now.


This book has been very controversial. George Washington Elementary a school is Eleanor West Virginia banned this book in 2001 because it promoted gang activity, and they didn't want to show kids this in a book and for them to think that it is ok. This book’s diversity mainly covers socioeconomic boundaries because of the Socs and the Greasers. The Greasers don't have money and the Socs do. “We're poorer than the Socs and the middle class. I reckon we're wilder, too”(Hinton 4 ) But there is not real evidence of racial diversity in this book. Over the years alot have books have been banned by the government to keep the people from not knowing what that author believes and thinks about a certain concept. The first book that was ever banned was in 259 B.C. by The Emperor of china about Confucius' writings. Some books have been banned because of racist reasons like the book The Color Purple. There are some books about the whole idea of book banning and how it could affect the future. Fahrenheit 451 is a good example of a distorien time where books have been banned. Even books like the Breakfast Club were banned because of use of drugs. These were banned because the government thought it would be better if the general populous didn't have these books for many different reasons.     


Next, some people found some content in the book to be offensive. There is quite a bit of violence in this story. One instance is when Ponyboy is jumped when walking home from the movies by himself. A knife was held to his throat "How'd you like that haircut to begin just below the chin?"( Hinton 6). This was said to Ponyboy by a Soc with the knife against his neck. This type of violence is bad to promote to a young audience and could definitely be seen as too violent for some. Another example of this book being offensive is the talk of drugs and alcohol. Everyone smokes in the book and it is mentioned quite a bit and a few get drunk also. There are references to getting “smashed” or ”stoned”. "When we stomp the Socs good, me and Stevie here are gonna throw a big party and everybody can get stoned. Then we'll go chase the Socs clear to Mexico" ( Hinton 93). Some people didn't want this book promoting these habits of smoking or drinking to a teenage audience who would read something like this. Even though it is around a lot today they had more censorship back in 1960s. Most of this was about the socio economic differences between the Socs and the greasers. A quote from SE hinton is "I think The Outsiders was meant to be written, and I was just meant to write it" I could imagine her frustration after having her book banned because she is so sure that this book had to be written which is a cool way to think of it.

Finally, my opinion on the matter at hand. Truly that this book should not be banned. Every book should be able to be read if the reader wishes to. No one should tell someone what someone can and cannot read it should always be up to them. Someone can understand why some people thought that the violence and the alcohol and drug abuse were a reason to ban it. If one were a parent would they make this book be an example of the type of things that do not promote a successful lifestyle ? Another reason why this book should be banned is that teens should be exposed to these things at an age when they are mature enough to make the right decision. Now censorship is not a good thing but common sense is. No one wouldn't make a 4th grade class read this but anyone in 8th grade of above can handle this and can learn a lot though this.

So basically this book shouldn't have been banned. Although it talks about some mature content like drugs, alcohol ,and violence it shouldn't be not read. If one does not want to hear about any of those topic it is simple as just not reading it. Every book should be able to read if wanted to.

Disease AP #2 by OL

Disease AP #2
Oskar Landise
Nicotine Addiction

For my second AP for Disease class I researched nicotine addiction.
Through this class we learn about different mental issues such as autism or addiction.
I learned alot about nicotine addiction through this project such as that cigarette smoking kills
480,000 people a year. In this AP I will show you how when addicted the brain craves this substance







Timeline Breakdown






Throughout this project I learned a lot about nicotine addiction. It was really interesting that people get addicted to this in the first place knowe the consequences. It is horrible the damage that it does to your physical health and mental health. It also affects your social life in many ways. If it was up to me this substance would not be legal because it is so harmful.
