Modules
This section covers all the modules I completed over the course of TY.
For our Political Social Education class we learnt about how political views and laws changed over a period of time. Our main project for the period was to design a school for the modern era. We had five people in our group and my role was to create the rules and the guidelines for the school. Overall I learnt about how the policies of our society changed for the better.

Our teacher for nutrition was Ms. Murray. We learnt about a balanced diet and how the right nutrition is important. We also learnt what the certain food contains and how to get the best possible nutrition. We watched the Icarus documentary to learn about the Russian doping crisis in the the lead up to the Rio Olympics in 2016. We had to do a project on a topic to do with performance enhancement drugs. I chose to do my project on Ben Johnson and basic knowledge and facts about anabolic steroids. I presented my project as a Kahoot quiz to my class. I learnt a lot about drugs and nutrition in the module and I really enjoyed the class.
For our mindfulness module I had Ms. Buckley. We did various activities ranging from colouring to meditation in each of the classes we had during the week. The great thing about the module was that I was more relaxed at the end of each class. We had to do a project on the subject of Mindfulness in which I explained where mindfulness came from and how you can perform mindfulness yourself. Overall it was a module I got a lot out of and it would be one of my favourite modules in TY.
For Art Appreciation we had Ms. Magee as our teacher. She taught us all about ancient designs and how architecture has changed throughout the years. She gave us a project to do on an artist you admire and what inspired their artwork. I chose Salvador Dali as my artist. I find his art very different and this is why I chose him. My project was 6 pages and I explained how family and his fears influenced many of his pieces. I enjoyed this module and found a profound interest to learn more about art after finishing.
