Considering we analyze variety of religion's rituals, we've create dour own class ritual. Upon completing a a study of a particular religion, a group of students simulates a religious ceremony. To date, we have engaged in a Voodoo ritual (after completing our unit on traditional African religions), a Hindu wedding ceremony, and a Buddhism meditation. All of the ceremonies included food, music, props, and an intractive simulation. Check out the photos!
The objective of this blog is to create a space to record, share, and discuss information pertaining to Ms. Rodriguez's classes...World Religions, International Relations, and U.S. History.

"Mr. Global Studies"
Allow me to introduce Adrian Medina, "Mr Global Studies." This responsible tenth grader is the quintessential Global Studies student. He is a well-rounded young man who is not only a basketball and volleyball player, but also shines academically. Adrian is outspoken and firm in his political ideologies, he is a prominent voice during class discussions and debates. Furthermore, he is a diligent student and a natural leader. In fact, Adrian was one of the founders of his classes' country name "Mellowmania". He was also elected as his classes' president. All in all, he is an insightful resource about the Global Studies program. He has readily represented the program at Varela's Magnet Fair and Cirriculum Expo. Kudos to Adrian!
