Class Projects
For my first project I’m uploading here I made a Tetris 3D model that I did not have time to 3d print I did 3d print several smaller Tetris pieces as a test to see how big this one would be. A image will be included.
I also made a bunch of stickers For my computer and things around my house, I will include pictures.
We also made our 4 biomes island out of clay and a mountain in the middle.
I also 3d printed a box where I put little pieces of paper that went to a website I made where it talked about the conservation of salmon
I did do my drawings but i didnt get pictures in time to upload them to my website. I will see if I can upload them in the next few days. for my 1 points i made a desert scene with a cracked and old road going into the mountain range
Grade 10 Starts Here:
CLE Movie.
I created an about me video with PowerPoint and Shotcut which included music and facts/info about what I plan to do with my future.
CLE Project/Presentation for Profession.
We had to make a project and present it based around our main future job, and facts about the profession. Lots of research went into this project. The profession I chose was Urban Planning, or the making or design of cities.
.
This is a blueprint of a small river city, connected to a plant, in the top left is the plant to the left of the river, then to the right of the river is a small town and park(on the top right).
Perspective Drawings:
For my perspective drawings I don’t have images for as I forgot about the steam portfolio and lost them.
The Boat Races:
The races were really fun to do with the grade 9’s, from designing a boat with your group to actually making it in real life and seeing if your design could work out. Images will be attached soon.
Lit Launcher’s :
We got to design and test launchers to shoot small projectiles at a catcher or target, with the goal of getting the most projectile’s in the catcher in a minute. Video Attached:
Gravity Car’s :
This project was made to test our design and creation skill’s, well competing in friendly competition. My group with Terrence and Sebastien got first place after improving our car several times.
For Out Final CLE Project we had to take 2 potential post-secondary schools and research them. Here are my results:
University of British Columbia vs. Northern Alberta Insitute of Technology – Which school is best for me?

Where to find more info: If I wanted to find more information about UBC I could go to https://www.ubc.ca/about/ to find more about the school. If I wanted to find more information about NAIT I would go to their official help site https://www.nait.ca/nait/contact/help-support.
Closing – UBC is a profound school that is well known for changing the way its students look at the world. I feel that if I managed to get into the program I could leave a true impact on this world, or at least the area I live. Despite having slightly harder entry requirements and the tuition being higher I feel I would benefit more in the long run, and with high employment rates after the 4 years I would have no problems fitting right into my new job. All in all I feel that UBC would be the best school to lead me onto the first stages of my adult life.
