Vaya Noah Vaya!

Posted by Eryn James in Spanish 2 - Gierke on
The purpose of this project is to teach a non-Spanish speaking person how to speak Spanish so living in a Spanish spanking country can be more comfortable. The goals we set for this project are he/she will know how to ask and answer questions in the pas and present tense. They should understand when and how to use verbs in the past tense. He will understand the difference in the past tense and present tense. The goals are important because the lessons taught can help in everyday situations. Referring to the final project, we are especially proud of our over all Idea and effort the we put into creating our project. If we had a chance to start this project over we would have a better planning system. We would have given ourselves a small window of time to make a rough draft of the entire project and not just have to rush in headfirst. Questions that we have for Noah are why did he go to Spain not knowing how to speak Spanish and how hard was it to understand the lessons in the videos.

When starting this project I didn't have any clue of what recycled material I would use to make a project. Every time my parents go shopping they bring back plasti bags and put them under the sink and don't use them. Since I knew that I liked messenger bags because I get frustrated carrying backpacks, I decided I would use plastic bags to make a messenger bag.

After coming up with an idea I researched different ways you can make a messenger bag out of plastic bags. When I started working on the bag I realized that sewing everything by hand would take a really long time because I don't have a sewing machine. Therefore I changed my idea to making a laptop case out of plastic bags a an old non-hooded sweatshirt. I used what I had from the messenger bag and add on more bags if it needed to be bigger. After looking at the design of this I realized I didn't want to do this either.

Now I am back to the idea of making a messenger bag out of plastic bags, but with a different take on this. I decided that I will fuse the bags together using an iron and wax paper the same way I would for the laptop case or the first messenger bag I was going to make. After fusing them together I will take a hot glue gun and join the bags together, then cut and finish joining the rest of the bag together. Once I'm done making the bag design I will sew on a strap and hot glue a bag flap on to the bag.

For my art project, I took inspiration from "The Simpson's Movie". In the film, the city of Springfield got quarantined because of all the toxic waste they let off into the river. I took my own spin on this idea by making a miniature version of Philadelphia.

When I made this I didn't need a lot of stuff. I got a box from my dad's job and some old boxes from creams and medicine. 


First I started to sketch out some ideas of a futuristic city. After I got my ideas sketched out, I began to gather my materials and build a mini city. Here are some pictures (coming soon)
