In this unit we studied resilience. We studied the holocaust and some of the survivors. We watched their stories and studied about their resilience. We then studied our personal resilience and how we use it. We did tons of prep assignments in order to make this project. In creating our final project we studied lenses and chose one did research notes and prepared and created beautiful work! This project was very challenging but super worth it. I chose to study how we use resilience to help us battle sadness and depression. I feel like this is a super important topic so I was challenged to make something that could really represent the research in a thoughtful and helpful way. I felt art would be the best way to create this in a meaningful way. So I combined writing, painting, and drawing to create something that I hope can help others with their battles. I did research from many clinics so I could have proper information. At the end of this project I'm really happy with the final product. It ended up being something I'm proud of and something truly beautiful ! This project had me grow in my research skills and art skills and thinking skills. I'm so so glad we did this project.My goal for this project was to make something that would help others and I met my goal. I think when others look at my project it will give them some good ideas on how they can take care of themselves. This project can also help people work through the events or give them the idea of looking for what caused their current feelings so they can use resilience to recover. There are so many ideas that can help people and I'm so glad we created this project.
