Spanish Conversation

Core Competency

I am proud that I came up with the theme for our Spanish conversation. I came up with how things were going to go and the structure of the conversation. With my partners, we were able to come up with ideas off each other’s own beliefs. I reflected on how I thought things in Spanish since my partners could correct me on my mistakes and I always asked questions about things I didn’t understand.

One goal for myself in my Spanish journey is to be able to hold a conversation with someone. I am going to do that by looking over old Spanish homework and do my own studying with classes, websites and apps

Stock Market: Self Assessment

Curricular Response

My best performing stock was the iShares (XIU) and my worst performing stock was Vanguard (VOO). I think my choices were somewhat risky but not risky enough for me to lose a lot. To make it less of a risk instead, I could’ve monitored regularly until it was an easier decision/risk to take or just invest in a different stock. It seems to me that my portfolio wasn’t balanced. I could invest to make my portfolio more balanced and make sure my assets are in check.

Core Competency Self Assessment

I researched for a lot of information since it was my first time buying stocks and I was just experimenting so I could get a hang of it in the future. I do believe that I will be investing in the future since this helped me get a hand of the low basics. One thing I learned that has changed my way of thinking things is when and how to buy stocks. That information that I didn’t know about before made me think that most people actually don’t know when or how to buy stocks properly.

Core Competencies – Yearbook

Creative Thinking:

While designing my yearbook avenue pages, I have thought up of many ideas to design my pages further developing my skills in yearbook avenue. While designing my pages I slowly became interested in the work. I was getting better at designing pages which was a fun opportunity for me. I learned new skills with writing and interviewing which helped me with other assignments. For example, I noticed I had misspelled, and had some pronunciation wrong in a paragraph. That fix helped me a lot with that assignment’s grade.

My Storyboard

My Reflection

Tim Burton, in Edward Scissorhands, used the ending scene to show the meaning behind the story to have a good ending and make people more invested. For example, in my own interpretation, I ­­­­­­­changed the camera angle to a different angle then the movie for some scenes because I thought it would look better. I also changed the objects for scenes like the ice. The ice in the show had a shape to it and this ice did not because storyboard wouldn’t let me cut it into a person or something like that.

This adaptation from film to visual novel taught me that editing is important in a movie like shots and framing, camera angles, lighting etc. This unit also taught me how to locate all those things on the screen.

My favorite website

I chose this website because I like looking at all the sports and games that happened recently. I also like to look at the highlights so I know what to do better in the sports I play for.

My Favorite Video 

(skip to 3 min and 52 seconds)
this is one of my favorite videos because he was so weak at first and had no power then he suddenly got power from this grimoire. A grimoire is a book of magic spells and invocations. This video is from an anime named black clover which has 150 episodes it might seem like a lot but I suggest you watch it if you like action, superhero fiction and comedy.
