My Senior Project
For my senior project, I will be learning how to crochet. Crocheting takes a lot of concentration, patience, and time which is why I decided to work on this because I have always been interested in trying this. I like working on projects that I have complete freedom over, like when I used to make bows or bracelets. I’ve always been interested in working on things such as this but I haven’t had the opportunity or the time to work on it.
Senior project is a chance for you to do anything you want to do or have been thinking about doing. It gives you the chance to do something that you’ve always wanted to do but never had the time or motivation to do so. I have already made a few things such as a teddy bear and a bunny. Crocheting takes a lot of time, but since one of my jobs is to take care of my grandmother, I crochet at her house while she helps me learn to do the stitches. My grandmother is my mentor because I have three jobs, and a lot of other things to do so my schedule wouldn’t be able to fit another thing into it like making time to see someone else. While I am learning things from my grandmother, I am using the forum I am in (crochetville.com), to learn other things that she may have not taught me or things I’m not certain about. I also use YouTube to help find different patterns for

Being a senior and all, I am very stressed. I have so many things to do and I get stressed easily so I was recommended to try something that could help that. While I was researching crocheting, I found out that it is a really good stress reliever ("Health Benefits of Crocheting and Knitting | Red Heart Blog.".) which is a plus for me. Stress is really hard to deal with, so finding something like crocheting, is a really good thing for me to learn. It also helps with depression, insomnia, anxiety, and many more issues teens may experience("» 10 Most Important Health Benefits of

    My Fall Semester Project

    • 628 Words
    • 3 Pages

    I thought that this fall semester project was fairly simple in the process that my group took to completing it. For this document based question essay, my group has had prior knowledge of the topic we chose which was the British having control over the colonists during the American Revolution. Since we had prior knowledge on this subject, it was pretty easy finding documents that we could use for our document based question. Most of the documents we chose were ones that we have already learned about in previous history classes. For example, some of the documents were acts passed during this time like the Stamp Act. We knew the effect that each individual act had on the colonists which helped our decision making progress. Some of the other documents that we used we found on some good American history document websites. These websites had hundreds of documents that had to do with the British and the colonists affairs during the American Revolution which gave my group plenty to choose from. Even though there were hundreds to choose from, only some had to do with the question and subject we were working with so that narrowed them down quite a bit. After finding the first 15 documents, we narrowed down the list to 10, taking out the least important ones. Some of the 15 documents were obviously less important than others which made it a lot easier to narrow down. After narrowing down the documents, one of the more difficult parts of the project came which was grouping the documents into 3 groups for the essay. One obvious group for our documents was the "act group" which had all of the acts and laws restricting colonists to do certain things during that time. The second group was the "big events group" which had all of the major events that the British did when controlling the colonists like the Boston Tea Party or the Boston Massacre. The final group was the "map, charts, etc. group" which had the charts or…

    My senior project on masonry, I’ve been going to vo-tech for masonry for 3 years, and I think it’s a great thing to do, let me tell you what masonry does, first you make morter, which requires some items, like sand, lime, and water these are all very important, so once you put the sand, lime, and water once done, mix very well till it’s one color, after that you’ll get a stand, and a pan, for your morter. Then you’ll get brick or block, whichever one you are working with. This has been very fun through the past years. I will also be doing an interview, and ask a few questions about what he did as a mason. There are many many things you can do as a mason. It’s a lot of fun anybody can do it’s a very good trade and I’m glad I took it. We also do cement, we make cement for certain things only, and even at times, we might get a special job to pour some concrete for another shop, It’s lots of fun. There is also something very important for seniors that they have to do, and that’s taking a nocti test, with 200 questions on what you’ve learned all together, then you have to build a wall of the instructor’s choice, and it’ll get judged, after that’s all over they determine if you passed or not, but the big parts the test, and it’s very important that you know your stuff or you can fail, and probably fail tech as well.…

    Completing this research paper on two careers, a forensic practitioner and baker has changed my plans dramatically. After researching the career as a baker I now know that that is not a job that I would want to pursue. As a baker I don’t feel like I am making much of a difference, baking a cake or bread will not save someone’s life. I want to make a difference in life and help people. Becoming a forensic practitioner I can do that. I found more excitement in researching that career. When I think about choosing a career, I feel it must be something that I could see myself doing and enjoying for the rest of my life. Working in a lab and seeing crime scenes amazes me! I learned a lot of things about both careers. A baker takes his/her time to create products to perfection. They work long hours and have great career advantages. A forensic practitioner works mainly in a lab, sometimes alongside police officers. All of the expectations that I had for this project were fully met. I was pleased to have the opportunity to research both careers, now I know what career fits me and which one doesn’t.…

    In the United States wild fires are very common during the dry season also known as summer. Although they are occurring all over the united states I would like to bring your attention to the following states, Utah, Nevada, Colorado, Washington and also Idaho. In the past few fire seasons these states have had an increase in the number of fires that have been started due to natural storms and human related accidents. They are becoming more frequent due to the current conditions of the forests and lack of up keep on the vegetation. Along with the growing frequency of these fires the intensity level of the fires are also increasing as a result of the over populated forest. With the ever increasing fire intensity the forest firefighters are in more danger now than ever. To what extent should people begin to be concerned about the growing forest fire problem? People should become concerned when the problem is continuing to escalate and becoming a growing problem. This growing problems is beginning to effect myself first hand due to where I live also with my family members who are in the wildfire fighting field. My oldest brother Chris works for Boise Dispatch, My brother Hoby is on an engine crew in McCall Idaho, My youngest brother works for Pat- Rick fire crew out of Boise Idaho, and lastly my father Dale works for Thunder Mountain Catering. They cater to the firefighters stationed on the larger fires so that they don't have to eat MRE's (Dehydrated meals ready to eat). Also during the fire season the air is thick with a gray haze covering the Treasure valley. This often happens when there are numerous fires burning around the area. Due to the current conditions of the forests these fires are becoming more frequent and also more intense.…

    This summer I decided to do my senior project on mechanics and auto body detailing. During the processes of my senior project I learned many new skills. For example I learned how to weld and work on engines. I started working around May and saved up some money to buy myself a decent looking truck. I spent 2,200 dollars on my truck. Which I said to myself, “Wow that is very cheap” yet it actually wasn’t so much. After I bought the truck, I started driving it around and after a week of driving it I knew something was not right.…

    My Name is Brittany Larkin and for my senior project I have chosen to do How Music Impacts Drugs on My Community. My motivation for this project is that today’s society has changed over the years, and more and more I see not only some of my fellow classmates, and my friends, but my family members’ usage of drugs impact over the years. One day I’m walking home from school and a group of young boys about my little brothers age so I say about 11-12 years old smoking and rapping “ I said wait hold up please let me roll up” and thinking to myself did that music make them want to smoke drugs or was it the drugs that decided the type of music they listened to. More and more new songs about drugs have come out come out for example the molly dance, and I myself have noticed ever since the song has been released more and more people find it fascinating to want to do a “Molly” because it seemed cool and the rappers. People they look up to have tried it or claimed they tried it. I think it’s not just rap music though that impacts drugs; I think every genre has a different impact on drugs. That’s another reason why I chose this particular project to see if it’s just rap music, and if indeed it is I want to know what are the different solutions we can take to change this. Maybe less drugs and more successful things in music like staying in…

    By completing my Senior Project, I developed so much personal satisfaction from this experience. I feel much more confident when presenting in front of an audience. I have found myself able to share information without having to read from a stack of notecards. Being able to do this was quite a “stretch” for me as I often become nervous in front of a group of people. This project taught me that sharing something I really believe in will help me become a very good…
