3-Way Soccer!
Stefan Gruber, 2nd Semester 11-12

Gruber's Lab, The Dead Rat Field : Tue 13:30-14:25

*INACTIVE* PE - Alternative Activities / 0.25

3-Way soccer! Tuesday Committee time
This is an unorthodox sports workshop. We sit down for a pow-wow at the end of each game to talk about what rules we want to add and subtract to a constantly changing sport. 7 years of fine tuning in this way has produced a game that uses 3 teams on a circular field and a huge yoga ball that you dribble on the grass with your fist, or kick. It feels a bit like a bizarre circus act crossed with a blend of many familiar sports aspects. Meet at Stefan’s room to keep your bag safe, then we head over to the Dead Rat Field.

Among the films we may look at are “Hip-hop, Jails and Hospitals”, “Standing in the Shadow of Motown”, “Wattstax”, “Roots”, “Four Little Girls”, and a variety of documentary and feature films.

What does it look like when it’s a graph? an equation? a table? What is a slope, how do you calculate or estimate it, and what does it convey? Of what practical use is a slope or a linear equation? What is a y-intercept and how does it relate to real life? How does finding the crossing point of two functions help with decision making?

In addition to the mathematics content, students are expected to

listen with respect to another person’s explanation;
provide help when asked;
ask for help when needed;
play an active role in sustaining a safe and encouraging learning space for one another; and
treat all materials gently so that they may be reused.

AP Statistics B
Christina Wright, 2nd Semester 11-12

Room 27 : Mon/Thu 10:00-11:25; Wed 12:00-13:25

MA - AP Statistics B / 0.5

This is a year long course open to all students who earned full credit the first semester. We have agreed to meet three times a week between Jan 30 and May 17, the day after the AP Statistics Exam. The course will conclude at this point.

In keeping with the philosophy of this school, we will be engaged in a process of group investigation and exploration. We will conduct activities individually, in small groups, and as a class. We will work to share insights with one another. End of unit reviews will be required of each student, but there will be a choice of modality (e.g., Power Point presentation, graphic organizers by hand (“foldables”)or by computer (Inspiration)). There will be homework required for nearly every class, but it will be discussed and shared, rather than collected. Class will meet twice a week for 90 minutes each class. Lab time will be scheduled within as well as outside this time.

Every student will take the AP Statistics exam in May. This is part of the journey we are undertaking. While the primary goal of this course is to understand the beauty and power of statistics, we are also preparing seriously to take the AP exam. We will learn the rubric for the free response questions on the exam, and will use it to score our own free responses to questions from previous exams. We will regularly attempt the multiple choice questions from previous exams as they pertain to the unit we are studying.

A goal we most earnestly share with the AP Stat exam goals is that of clear and effective communication. This is not a course in number crunching and a resounding, “So there!” Rather, it is one in which words are used with care and skill to describe the scope of a response, its relative strengths and weaknesses, and the context in which it occurs. It’s more of a “Hey, check this out!”

We will endeavor to share our developing resources and expertise with the school community. For example, as we learn about bias and data collection procedures, we can help student committees to create surveys on Fathom. Furthermore, we can write reports of the results in a scholarly way, publishing these in the on-line school newspaper.

Geometry A
Christina Wright, 2nd Semester 11-12

Room 27 : Mon/Thu 12:00-13:25

MA - Geometry A / 0.5

This is a hands-on, socially constructed, introductory course in Geometry, the second semester of which will be offered in the fall of 2012. All students who have completed Algebra I are welcome in this class. (If you are an exception to this, come and speak to me before registering.) As this class is the first course of formal Geometry, we will begin learning how to define and classify. In other words, how are things named in a way that makes sense? There are some new symbols to learn and some new terms to assimilate.

We will take a trip into the world of logic, where you will learn skills that will help you construct and rebut arguments in other aspects of your life. We will explore reasoning with some grand explorations into figurative numbers (square numbers, triangular numbers, etc.)

We will embark on an historical journey into the art of constructions with compass and straightedge. You will learn how Islamic tessellations (tilings) have been founded on the a handful of simple techniques, all of which you will know how to do!

We will draw, construct, and measure angles and explore dynamically how they are formed and how one angle can affect another. For this portion of our investigation, we will be using Geometer’s Sketchpad, an exciting geometry software which is loaded on all of our school computers. The conversation about angles will develop into a conversation about triangles. We will ask (and answer questions) about individual triangles (i.e. If you know the lengths of two sides, can you say anything meaningful about the third side? If two sides of a triangle are equal, are you privy to any information about its angles?) Finally, we will learn what conditions need to be met before we can conclude that two triangles are congruent.

We will learn how to construct geometric arguments, which are similar to supporting a thesis in a research paper. We will do this through formal proofs, flowchart proofs, and paragraph proofs. You will be encouraged to create your own version of what makes sense as a way to prove something conclusively.

We will expand our study of triangles to polygons. We will investigate quadrilaterals very closely.

In addition to the mathematics content, students are expected to

listen with respect to another person’s explanation;
provide help when asked;
ask for help when needed;
play an active role in sustaining a safe and encouraging learning space for one another; and
treat all materials gently so that they may be reused.

Room 27 : Mon/Thu 14:30-15:55

MA - Pre-Calculus A / 0.5; MA - Pre-Calculus B / 0.5

This is a concentrated course where two semesters of preCalculus have been combined into one. While students are invited to four class sessions per week, they are required only to attend Monday and Thursday at 2:30.
This is a great course for those who have completed (or mostly completed) Algebra II. We will begin this course with a rigorous review, so if you are hesitant because you can’t remember your early Algebra, don’t fret. This is a yearlong class designed to bridge the gap between Algebra II and Calculus. It is a year to explore, extend, and play with functions, frolicking among the various function classes, including polynomials, exponential and logarithmic functions, and trigonometric functions.
This will not be a “bells and whistles” course. Rather, it is an opportunity to study fundamental and often already familiar concepts deeply, turning them over and around and exploring them with care and true understanding. Our work will often entail use of the TI 84+ calculator, and there will be considerable opportunity to practice sketching graphs, manipulating equations, and writing/talking about how concepts work and relate.
This course is being taught as a workshop. That has two implications. First, there will be less memorization and more thinking required of everyone. Second, time in class will be time on task, completing the work together to explain, question, and compare our results.
I will be implementing the technique of “flip teaching” in this course, where students will watch short videos of new material (always less than 10 minutes each) outside of class and will complete problem sets inside class with one another as resources.
This is a yearlong course, but students are welcome to take the first semester as a stand-alone course.

How do we live here?
Adam Croft, 2nd Semester 11-12

Room 33 and beyond : Mon/Thu 8:30-9:55

SC - Science Seminar / 0.5

Students will explore what it means to live in this place. In this pursuit, we will investigate the concept of place, the dynamics of living in a place, and the potential for living in healthy relation with this place.

WA State History credit is available for this course.*

Students will combine learning (Earth science, eco-justice, biology, ecology, history, geography, civics, ethics, etc.) with action (community activism, public education, media outreach, service-oriented traveling, action research, scientific experiments, street theater, the arts, etc.) as we work together in the growing movement to address the changes occurring in this place and its unequal affects upon different communities and life-forms. In all cases, students will be expected to put their learning into action, in this place.

Questions to be addressed by students participating in this course include:
- how have humans lived, in this place?
- how are humans currently living, in this place?
- how could humans live, in this place?
- how does the Earth live, in this place?
- what is the state of the planet and its life today, especially in this place?
- how is health/pollution distributed across the planet today and in this place?
- how has the climate crisis come about, and what is its relation to this place?
- what are/will be the effects of rapid climate change, in this place?
- how are/will these changes affect(ing) communities differently, for example, rich vs. poor, white people vs. people of color, etc., in this place?
- how are/will these changes affect(ing) plants, animals, ecosytems, oceans, and the living planet (Gaia), especially in this place?
- should a healthy environment (climate, water, land, air, food, etc.) be considered a civil right?
- what does environmental justice look like, in this place?
- what does a healthy human civilization living with and upon a healthy planet look like, in this place?
- what actions are available/necessary, in this place?
- how can we make sustainable living more fun than our current harmful civilization, in this place?
- what are we doing?
- what can we do?

Just as all of these questions intertwine, the ways in which we learn and act will be just as integrated. Our only planet and its life are in trouble; our learning is of little use if we don’t put it into action. So, let’s have some fun and get movin’.

Marine Biology

This seminar will be designed and co-facilitated by staff (Eyva and Adam, primarily) and students and will thus take shape around the interests of all participants. The particular focus of this class will be Intelligence: what is it? how does it work? what creatures are intelligent? how do we use our own intelligence? does intelligence exist within communities or just individuals? how is intelligence discussed and used in our society? how does the mind work? This is a year long course dedicated to deep exploration of the competencies of Identity, Community, Justice, Evolution, Inquiry, Analysis and Creation/Action. Students will follow their passions while learning and refining some of the basic skills needed for a successful Nova career. Most importantly students will investigate themselves, their power, privilege and oppression, how they learn and how to affect change in themselves and their communities.

This seminar is designed to facilitate a discussion of gender, sex and sexuality and their inherent relationships to power and privilege. Students can make their interest projects to get health, science, LA or history credit. There are different competencies for each type of credit so students need to arrange what they are working toward early in the semester with Eyva or Adam. LA and History proposals will be reviewed by the appropriate teachers in order to give these types of credit.

Hollow Earth Radio
Stefan Gruber, 2nd Semester 11-12

Walking Field Trip to HER (6 blocks away), Gruber's Lab : Tue 14:30-15:55

UE - Leadership / 0.25

Hollow Earth Radio is the Pacific Northwest’s freeform online radio station that presents a forum for underrepresented music, sounds and perspectives.
They are brand to to the community and need a lot of help with chores, flyering, merch design and creation, and old fashioned on the street journalism and audio creation. For those who pitch in the best, some shadowing of DJs is available.

Freeform Radio: HER is a freeform radio. Freeform radio is a programming format in which the DJ is given total control over what music to play, regardless of music genre or commercial interests. Freeform radio stands in contrast to most commercial radio stations, in which DJs have little or no influence over programming structure or playlists.  

Nondiscrimination Policy: HER does not condone discrimination. As a volunteer, we expect you to be respectful (off-air at the station and in the community when representing HER and on-air) of all people no matter the age, race, gender, sexual orientation, size, ethnicity, political stance, socioeconomic status disability, etc.

Our work is part of the larger effort toward environmental justice in our urban communities as we improve the health of Seattle’s green spaces. Improving the health of our city parks provides access to green spaces for all Seattle residents, helps to clean our local air and water, and improves habitat for our more-than-human neighbors. Students will also gain skills working in participation with local service organizations, a valuable skill applicable to any volunteer experience.

Tasks: Come share science with rad second graders at Bailey-Gatzert. You can learn and share how to make almost any household product with safer and more environmentally sustainable ingredients, develop cool building challenges and share any part of science you are excited about with kids!
Social Justice: Science is power! Science education is not emphasized and often cut out of schools that “don’t perform well on high stakes testing” to make more time to teach to the test. This means that students with the least amount of societal privilege are further punished by not getting to learn, love and explore science! Boooooooo! Fight the isms by helping me bring science to the people!

None assigned

These wonderful children have disabilities that physically differentiate them from “typical” looking people and in our society. These students are in constant danger of marginalization and need friends and allies . Having friends and allies from Nova will strengthen our community and create lasting friendships. The outcome of this experience will be a passion for advocacy, a greater depth of empathy, and a connection with new friends that will last a lifetime.
This social justice activity will be a social experience with students who have special needs. The students in this class have disabilities that require that they use a wheelchair to sit upright and get around. They are typically non-verbal communicators meaning they use pre-programmed electronic switches to communicate. They also use non-verbal physical cues and facial expressions to communicate.
Our friends from Lowell will want to spend time with Nova friends who enjoy hanging out in their classroom listening to music, working on art projects, playing basketball, going for walks around Capitol Hill, and being social.
This group of students is vibrant and they enjoy social time. They are a cool and fun group to hang out with. Please join us if you are interested!

“India is, the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grand mother of tradition. Our most valuable and most instructive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only.” – Mark Twain

Take a spectacular trip down the Ganges this semester. Learn about the incredible richness and diversity of India’s people, cultures and landscapes. Learn about the intense drama of its past and the originality and continuing of its ideas.

American Studies
Melissa Park, 2nd Semester 11-12

Room 30 : Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri 8:30-9:55

SS - American Government & Economics / 0.5; SS - US History 11A / 0.5; SS - US History 11B / 0.5

Credits: 1.0 U.S. History 11a/11b OR a combination of U.S. History AND American Government and Economics. This is a demanding 4 day-a-week class recommended for juniors and seniors only.

To paraphrase Tuvan throat singer, Kongar-ol Ondar, “We are the heirs to our ancestors’ wisdom and their struggle.” What IS “our” wisdom? What ARE “our” struggles? What truths and inspiration are in the actions people before us took (and people now are making) to creatively change our country and our world?

This project-, theme-, and inquiry-based course is co-created with students from our questions about our past and our present, e.g.

How do opinion and history interact?
Who are represented by “we” and “our?”
Why are things the way they are for different people in “America?”
What changes in our lives, what stays the same—and why?
How do we make sense of the constant barrage of stories and information that hit us every day?
How do we learn who we are and how we relate to others?

This course on American history has strong emphasis on building history skills and research practices to “do” history. Students will identify, explore, and analyze major issues, events, and social movements throughout the history of the United States and its place in the world. Initial areas of study may include, but are not limited, to the following:

• The multicultural heritage of the United States.
• Patterns of settlement and change.
• The growth of political institutions, ideologies, and cultures beginning with Native structures and early colonial governments.
• The revolutionary war and the confederation.
• The growth, change, and evolution of U.S. foreign policy.
• Territorial expansion and the issue of slavery.
• Sectionalism, secession, and the civil war and reconstruction.
• Immigration and migration.
• Political philosophies and movements, including labor movements.
• Black/African-American, Native, Asian, Puerto Rican, Latino, women’s and lesbian/gay history and perspectives.
• Issues of gender, class, and sexual orientation as they relate to the political and cultural growth of the U.S.

In addition, all students generate, create, and produce independent research projects based on personal interests connected with themes, concepts, and time lines developed in class.

Civil Rights History
Melissa Park, 2nd Semester 11-12

Room 30 : Mon/Thu 14:30-15:55

Social Studies / 0.5; SS - American Government & Economics / 0.5; World History / 0.5

This class will examine past and continuing struggles in American civil rights movements, and those of other countries around the world. Expect to work with stories, art, music, poetry, film, words, and ideas in learning about people fighting for basic human rights, including the right to participate in their societies.

We’ll focus closely on the origins, events, people, and organizations of the civil rights movement of the 1950s-1970s, and examine topics such as (but not limited to): the complexities of and obstacles to building people’s movements, nonviolent resistance, self-defense against brutality, allyship and coalition-building, Black Power movements, Brown Power movements, American Indian movements, Asian Pacific Islander movements, women’s rights movements, gay rights movements, environmental justice and food justice movements. We’ll also cover past and/or ongoing civil rights struggles in countries such as (but not limited to): South Africa, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Liberia, Somalia, Yemen, Syria, India, Guatemala, Chile, and Mexico.

Alice Walker said, “One of the most common ways people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.” This class seeks to uncover some of the power each person has and express it through art, learning, and activism.

Coordinators please note that students can still take this class and earn credit in History or Spanish even if they do not go to Guatemala – they can study Guatemalan History and Spanish and and fundraising to support the trip. A number of students have done this successfully, so if they are interested in the issues related to the class don’t let the fact that they can’t go to Guatemala this semester to be a barrier. Taking this class may also be a good idea to do this semester if they think they may wish to travel to Guatemala or East Timor next year ( we plan to take trips to both places- funds permitting)

Gaming the Past: History using Gaming
Patrice DeLaOssa, 2nd Semester 11-12

Patrice's room #26 : Tue/Fri 12:00-13:25; Tue/Fri 14:30-15:55

None assigned

This is a .75 credit course that covers all of U.S. history in one semester. Students will use various historical simulations to explore the past. These simulations (a mix of video games and board games) are similar to works of historical fiction or films; the simulations are based on a mix of primary and secondary sources and present a narrative. The advantage of simulations is that they help to make abstract concepts more concrete than any non-interactive media could. In a simulation, a student can take on a role of a political, military or business leader to understand the conditions they under which they operated. Due to the nature of the simulations available on the market, much of the emphasis in this course will be on political, economic and military history.

Beyond the simulations, students will use a mix of primary and secondary written sources. These will be used to help the students analyze the simulations for accuracy and access information not present in the games.
Students who are not comfortable playing video games should consider taking another class for US History credit.

US history meets at two separate times on the same day Tuesday/Friday. This course is for Juniors/Seniors only.

Hogwarts, A History
Patrice DeLaOssa, 2nd Semester 11-12

Patrice's Room #26 : Mon/Thu 12:00-13:25

None assigned

The Harry Potter book series became a phenomenon that influenced our modern mythology and how we envision such abstract concepts as good and evil. These books also contain and allude to many aspects of history. In Hogwarts, A History, we will study the following:

Mythology and ancient history relating to the practice of magic, mythological creatures, alchemy, and most importantly, how words came to symbolize power. We will also explore how Harry Potter has brought ancient concepts into our own modern mythology.

Social constructs within the world of Harry Potter such as slavery, racism, nobility, blood sport, and technology. We will relate them to practices throughout history and in modern times.

Government in a technical sense; we will study the current government established in the U.K. and explore the concepts of criminal trial and martial law. We will also see how corruption in government is portrayed, as well as the relation between politics and education.

Metaphors are rampant in the world of Harry Potter, and we will be considering such obvious concepts as good and evil, as well as dementors, death, immortality, desire, and most definitely more.

While this class will, hopefully, allow us to discuss and study history in a more imaginative way, it will not be simply about reading Harry Potter. We will study these topics in depth. Also, if you haven’t read the books, you can still take the class and do well. Just beware of spoilers!

Spanish Sword Fighting- Don Quixote de la Mancha
Joseph Szwaja, 2nd Semester 11-12

The craggy peaks and dusty plains of Spain (and Joe's Room) : Mon/Thu 10:00-11:25

None assigned

Credit available in World History and/or Language Arts.

What might we learn about history and human nature by riding a mile or two on the back of Rocinante, Don Quixote’s skinny yet illustrious steed, or the dumpy grey mule of his potbellied sidekick Sancho, all the while flirting with damsels and fighting giants, knights errant windmills and escaped lions? Let’s give it a try!

Called a crazy dreamer, visionary madman, idealistic fool, serious trickster par excellence and a man born too late, Don Quixote de la Mancha is thought by many to be one of the great figures of world literature.

Don Quixote was created in the early 17th century, a time when the Spanish Empire was huge and powerful, yet at the beginning of a long and slow decline. During their mad escapades, the errant knight and his squire probed at some of the contradictions and absurdities of kingdom and empire that may teach us things about their own time and other ones as well.

In this class we will start by attempting some of the hilarious and impressive physical stunts attempted by Don Quixote and Sancho and learn a little bit about the wars, weapons and crucial questions of their time. We will also read and act out portions of the classic novel by Cervantes and other related readings in an attempt to examine some of the great historical and human questions he brings up. Among others, these will include:

How can individuals act on their values in a time and place when they are increasingly ignored?

What are the relationships between wisdom and madness, idealism and practicality, empire and justice, violence and non-violence, the self and the other?

Speak Up! Peoples’ Voices in History
Melissa Park, 1st Semester 11-12

Room 30 and the city of Seattle : Tue/Fri 14:30-15:55

Social Studies / 0.5

People fear speaking in public more than they fear death, according to a now infamous study. Yet in shaping this country people have often used one of the first tools available to them—their voices—to rally, to dissent, to inspire, etc. How and when did people speak up at critical moments in history, and what were the consequences of those acts?

This class will examine “voice” through art, activism, scholarship, stories, history, and students being and becoming leaders at Nova and beyond. What are the earmarks of effective communicators? How do we build those skills ourselves? What are the elements of a “good” argument? You will build your own “tool-kit” of skills through various activities: improv, story-telling, interviewing, performance, and activism. Expect to speak and listen in this class, engage with guest speakers, analyze famous speeches and writings, and write and deliver your own original text to an audience. Expect a challenging but fun class in which students will cover public speaking strategies, debate various topics, and participate in open mics, readings, and community meetings. How do we work through anxiety about public speaking (glossophobia)? Practice, practice, practice!

Students may earn elective/speech [Language Arts] or World History credit for this class.

Throwing Balls Around the World/ Basic World History
Joseph Szwaja, 2nd Semester 11-12

Joe's Room, the Gym and the Community : Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri 8:30-9:55

None assigned

In this class students can earn full credit in both World History and Phys. Ed.!

We will carry out the class in conjunction with SBOC students and their great PE teacher Doug.

Twice a week we will play different types of PE games with the SBOC students. Some of these will be games from the SBOC student’s home countries. We will make sure that the Nova students and SBOC students play games together and get to know each other.

Twice a week we will work on history. If students have partial credit from other history classes they need to finish or history papers they need to finish form previous semesters this is a good class to take.

To the extent possible, we will use the connections we develop with SBOC students to explore the history and cultures of the regions that they come from. Nova students will link up with the students and interview them and in some cases their families about their countries and the issues that caused them to come to the US. We will share food together and take a few trips together as well

We will also bring in outside speakers for the places and try to learn a little about the food, music and culture of each country. Each Nova student will learn a little about the culture, geography and history of all the countries of the students in the class. They will also do a final project about the history of one particular country.

We hope to use the methods developed by members of Nova’s awesome Naked Truth students to help Nova students (and maybe SBOC ones as well) express what they have learned about history in the class. We invite those students who have been involved in Naked Truth to participate in this class and help us to use their methods of expression.

We hope this class will help us to develop deeper connections with SBOC and to use our connections with this international school to explore both History and PE.
