Social justice interview/videos and Reflection

Reflection

I really enjoyed interviewing a couple of people It was very interesting listening others opinions and experiences since I can also relate and agree with their opinions and experiences too. Coming up with a question was properly the hardest part since I didn’t want to ask anything boring or complicated but it all worked out in the end I thought of questions that were simple but important such as “how have you experienced or seen others go threw racism” “How can you be an ally?” These questions may not sound so interesting or like a big deal but once you reflect or hear what others responses are it can help you be a little more opened minded and aware.

As a P.O.C I can too relate with what the people I interviewed were saying, But what I liked the most was that they were all opened minded about it and they how to dealt with it, Also the 5th person I interviewed although she did not personally experience racism she mentioned how she’s seen her friends go threw it and that as a white person she’ll use her privilege to good and help others.

I really enjoyed doing this assignment hearing others voices and it made me feel safe because they are aware and even if they don’t go threw racism them selfs personally they are open mined and aware what others go threw and try to be a good ally.

HOOK

Too inform others to stay safe and protect Them self and others around them from the coronavirus.

SOME FACTS AND STATISTICS

Sometimes when people speak or don’t cover themselves from sneezing, Saliva comes out and can get someone nearby sick. Wearing a mask can help prevent that. Wearing a face mask may limit exposure to respiratory droplets and large particles and may help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading the virus. Don’t go out if it is not necessary, Unless you have to go to the store to buy some food ,soap, toilet paper ect. But if you’re just going out to party or travel you could put yourself and others there in danger. Travel increases your chance of spreading and getting COVID-19 due to potential exposures on public transit, at airports, or in hotels. Keeping a reasonable amount of distance from others helps you and others nearby from getting sick incase one of you accidentally are sick. Since people can spread the virus before they know they are sick, it is important to stay at least 6 feet away from others when possible, even if you or they do not have any symptoms.

CALL TO ACTION

Stay safe, and if you or someone you know are feeling any COVID-19 symptoms make sure to go to the hospital to get checked and get quarantined.

PSA Beginnings: All students should stay home for school

CoronaVirus has been going on since the beginning of this year 2020, We are almost at the end of this year and nothing has changed they’re still lots of cases of people get the virus. If all students stayed home for school there would be less cases and the students will stay safe.

in the website above you can see the amount of COVID-19 cases that are NYC schools. As of Friday afternoon, there have been at least 373,320 cases and 24,613 deaths in New York City since the beginning of the pandemic, according to a New York Times database. The numbers could’ve been lower if we don’t risk the students by attending school in person. The Teachers and other staff that work in the schools are at danger too, A student could effect them if they caught COVID while on there way to school or the other way around and teacher could get the student sick. The link under shows the death of teachers or staff members that worked in school cause of COVID

They had to close school because too many people where getting COVID but less of those people wouldn’t have gotten COVID if they did go to the school building, they could’ve either gotten COVID else where or maybe not even have gotten it at all.

My Favorite Cartoons

My two favorite cartoons is ‘The Fairly OddParents’ and ‘Phineas and Ferb’ i used to enjoy watching this back when i was younger on Nickelodeon and Disney Channel/Disney XD What i liked about these two cartoons is that in ‘The Fairly OddParents’ it was about a kid name Timmy Tuner who has a mean babysitter but he has two fairys that makes his day easier and he can make whishes. And ‘Phineas and Ferb’  was about two brothers that always hangs out in their backyard building cool stuff and it’s summer time. and their pet Perry is a secret agent.

The Fire

Hamari has been in America for 4 years now trying to accomplish her goal of being the first doctor in her family and thought that America would give her the best education for that. All Hamari ever does is study for exams, do homework and try to get extra credit from any classes she can. She was willing to leave all her family and friends behind to achieve her goal, Hamari’s friendships weren’t as valuable as her big dream and to bringing honor to her family. However the only friend that was difficult for her to leave behind was Murasakino. They’ve been best friends since 2nd grade. Working full time and balancing studies has been difficult for Hamari but she was going to go visit her best friend in Japan for spring break.

It was 7:08 PM, Hamari arrived to Tokyo from Harvard medical school. It was a 14 hour flight. The jet lag was awful. Hamari was completely exhausted, so she dranked enough coffee to be able to stay awake. While Hamari got off the plane and headed to the waiting area to look for Murasakino, Murasakino decided to go get some flowers and some of Hamaris favorite treat, mochi ice cream before. When Murasakino finally arrived to pick up Hamari, Everyone in the waiting area went deaf from there loud screaming of excitement when they both saw each other. They hugged for 5 minutes straight and started to tell each long stories until they realized that they could be doing this at Murasakino’s apartment.

  Murasakino drove Hamari and herself to her apartment and thought that they should have a calming spa day inside her apartment to relax, because Hamari must be stress of flying and traveling and studying so much. Murasakino took out face masks, nail tech equipment, candles, and lotions. Murasakino was very fond of beauty and took beautician classes. Murasakino searches for a lighter and placed various candles around the living room to set a relaxing mood. Then Murasakino gave Hamari a pedicure while she relaxed on a chair with her avocado face mask. Hamari fell asleep while Murasakino was giving her a pedicure, after finishing Hamaris toes she started to do her own. She messed up her design for her toe nails and she kept struggling but also kept attempting. Every 5 seconds she picked up a cotton ball moist with nail polish remover, and the same blue nail polish. When she finally perfected the design she got up and began to make snacks for herself and when Hamari woke up, While she walked to the kitchen she accidentally knocked over the opened nail polish remover that landed directly on a candle. Stupidly Murasakino did not acknowledge it and proceeded to walk to the kitchen. As she prepared some sandwiches she heard Hamari scream “THERE’S A FIRE, MURASAKINO HURRY GET SOME WATER” Hamari without thinking poured the water from her pedicure into the flames, that contained some nail polish remover from when Murasakino tried to rub off Hamaris old nail polish. The flames began to burst and continued to grow. By the time Murasakino ran with a bucket the flames had gotten to some other candles and the whole bottle of nail polish remover. Both friends had not seen eachother in 4 years, and now have died the same night they reunited.

X-acto Knife

X-acto knife’s are very useful tools mostly for craftsman and artist. A x-acto knife is looks like a pen/cil except that it has a blade instead of led. the blade is used for cutting things. when you are using an x-acto knife you hold it like a pencil but the blade has to be straight up down. and supplies you need when your using an x-acto knife is a ruler and a cutting board, and when your using the knife you shouldn’t have your fingers too close their not supposed to be next by the knife they have to be on top of the ruler your holding.

Advisory Growth Mindset Reflection

In my advisory with Ms.Binns we play games to help us learn more strategies not just in the games but the strategies help us in real life problems too, for example we played this game where we had to cross the other side of the classroom blind folded and we had to trust our partner and move where they told us without bumping into the chairs. This can help us to trust our pers more. And a grade i think i deserve on growth mindset for this unit is a 3 cause I’ve been participating on the all the games.

Flash Fiction : The Fireball

My flash fiction story is going to be about two sisters that became orphans because their parents perished in a fire the oldest sister Murasakino is 19 and the youngest sister is Hamari which is just 10 years old. Now the oldest sister will have to find a way to stay in college and study while also having a job in order to take care of her little sister Hamari, so her little sister won’t get taken away from her. A pictogram I would use to describe my story is probably draw a house on fire and Murasakino pulling her little sister Hamari away from it. I don’t think it’ll be so hard to re-crate this scene on paper except that I can’t draw for nothing, but other then that I’ll be some what easy, the drawing should be understandable. A house on fire and seems to be two people inside and a little girl crying and being pulled away from the house on fire by another girl that seems that could be her older sister.
