I used 2 circles for the iris of my eye because they are a circular shape in real life. I used a parabola for my chin and some of my jaw because I have a round chin. I used two ellipses for my ears because my ear have a round oblong shape. I thought a hyperbola would be a good idea to use for my neck because it curves inwards then out. I couldn’t think of a better way to create my hair because it is curly so I used parabolas and translated them a few times right and left to create hair strands. I made my nose using 2 parabolas for the bridge, 2 half circles for the nostrils, and another half circle for the tip of my nose. I used only parabolas for my mouth because it has many curved lines. My eyebrows were made using a mixture of parabolas and straight lines to create a curve shape. My eye shape was made using a parabola and a straight horizontal line. I believe I went above proficient in the apply mathematical ideas using technology section by shading in my eyes and mouth to make it look more realistic and by using sliders to be able to move certain functions exactly to where I wanted them.

I need to show that I value my group member’s contributions. I sometimes try to control everything and do everything myself instead of taking other ideas into account. This year I will work on letting everyone in my group have input on the project.

I need to remain open minded as I explore viable options or alternate approaches. I can keep focusing on how I got something wrong and find it hard to think of different approaches I could have taken. I will work on keeping an open mind when tackling difficult problems.

I need to work on not being afraid to ask questions when I am struggling with something. I can sometimes feel I shouldn’t ask questions because of pride, which is not a good thing when trying to learn new and complex concepts.

I can work with others to achieve a goal. My partner for this lab was Tony, we both agreed to do different jobs to collect the data efficiently and correctly. I measured the base and added it slowly to the acid. Tony measured the acid and transferred it to the flask. I can persevere over time to develop my ideas, and I expect setbacks and failure, but use that to develop my ideas. We continued getting vastly different results so we must have been measuring something wrong, so we took our time and did it properly to eventually get two results which were close enough to find the average. This was very difficult because we did not know what we were doing wrong but we had to persevere. I can analyze evidence to make judgements. I used the data and evidence that we collected during the lab to answer some questions relating to the data. I have been practicing these types of questions so I understood what the questions were asking and how to answer them.
