Rhetoric Speech

    This Action Project is all about demonstrating rhetoric and how it can be used in different situations. For this Action Project, I will be demonstrating rhetoric through a speech that I am writing for Margaret Croke. Margaret Croke is a progressive activist who is running for the Illinois house of representatives to represent the 12th District of Chicago. During this Unit, we have learned about parts of rhetoric like, Pathos, Logos, Ethos, and rhetorical devices. In the video I have posted below, I am reading the speech I have written for Margaret Croke. I have used Pathos, Logos, and Ethos to give my speech more effectiveness. The speech is about what Margaret Croke will do for the lower income communities of Chicago and how will she help them thrive.

    I want to be able to change the neighborhood by supporting local businesses and creating new ones. I want to be able to provide jobs for the people living in the community. If we can support local businesses then they can grow and give the neighborhood more opportunities to thrive. For example, when a Jewel-Osco was built in Woodlawn, it created so many opportunities to thrive. I have a quote from Chicago Business.

    It says: “The store became a symbol of the neighborhood's comeback, bringing fresh produce and other healthy food options to a South Side “food desert,” providing 200-plus jobs and generating momentum for a broader community-development push in the neighborhood.” Woodlawn was described as a “food desert” and yet they were able to take that title and throw it away. The Jewel Osco has also given over 200 jobs. I want to read you another short paragraph from Sunshine Gospel. It says: For the first time in 40 years.  . . read that again. . . for the first time in 40 years there is a mainline grocery store in Woodlawn. “This is a proud moment for Jewel-Osco,” said Doug Cygan, President of Jewel-Osco. “This new location underscores our commitment to providing good jobs, fresh produce and other essentials in order to help enhance a community.”

     If Woodlawn, the “food desert” can come back from after 40 years of having nothing as big as Jewel Osco, then the 12th district should definitely be able to thrive, and I believe that I can make that happen.

My Final Project...Is about my future.

 This is the very last Action Project I will ever make. I have spent my last three years making a lot of action projects, and I am at the end of them. This last AP is for my core class Endurance. This class was all about learning how one might endure something and the physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental, strength it takes to endure something. So in order to finish my last class, I need to create a survival guide on how to become an electrician, my future career. This survival guide will show how I will reach my goals and also give a timeline for how quickly I want to reach them. This is important because I am able to look back on this and show how much I have changed, and it will also help me if I get into a bad spot in my life. Overall, this AP will also show you how I plan to reach my goal and become successful in the future. Overall this class was one to remember. I was able to create a project I am proud of. I also know that this is the last action project of my time as ...

Scientific POSTER!

This is my final action project for my Core class Frontiers, and also my second to last action project ever! This last action project was all about challenging and pushing the frontiers of space and oceanic exploration. For both of these projects, we formed a guiding research question in order to be able to complete and write a research paper regarding problems with space and ocean exploration. For space, I decided to research and analyze the Big Banf and other questions connected to it. I was able to figure out just how much the Big Bang has had an influence on the world and research today. I was also able to figure out how the theories that are given, could be wrong. In order to complete this class, I was tasked with turning one of my research papers into a science fair poster. These posters have bits of information that give context to the research paper but do not give too much information. Below is my research paper created online. I am pretty proud of this poster and overall woul...

What is the Big Bang?

 What was the Big Bang and how can we prove it? These are questions that scientists have been trying to answer for decades. Where did our universe come from? When did it start? Is it still going? Is there any way for us to be able to track the big bang? The big bang was billions of years ago, but how can science prove that it actually happened? If scientists can prove this then how could this affect religious beliefs? These questions have been asked, yet still remain unanswered. When asking questions, getting the answer can bring a whole lot more questions. When it comes to the creation of the universe, there are just as many questions as there are theories as to how the universe was created. Just a few of them have been stated above, and only a couple have been answered below.  But how did it begin? The universe as we know it started in one extremely hot and dense point that inflated and stretched, first at unmeasurable speeds, then slowly over time, it became measurable. 13....
