Core Competency Self-Assessment – Titration

Communication

Throughout this lab, I listened and followed directions with my partner. My partner and I carefully grabbed each equipment that was needed and got started. We knew who was doing what and began. If we needed help we would ask the teacher for help and approval before going further. In this lab my partner and I communicated well, especially the teacher and were very careful. As we went through each trial, we improved each time. This is because we talked out our successes and failures and improvement each time. We would get confused time to time or some things but would ask for help from those around us or the teacher, and we would try to understand and learn from it. In the end, we successfully accomplished our goal.

English Core Competency

Something that I am proud of from this course is the Poetry Sheets we had done in class. This was an exciting part of the course. We learn how to write different types of poems in different ways then presented it in class. This was very exciting to do with my peers.

This was an representative for my Communication and how I shared my thoughts through poetry. Not only this but among my peers and teacher as well.

Spanish Reflection

El Artefacto

Core Competency Reflection

  1. I can understand that learning is continuous and my identity will continue to evolve.

I am aware that learning a new language such as Spanish will take me some time to learn. As I continue learning in my Spanish class, I hope to see some great improvement with my ability to read and write in Spanish. So far, I can understand the work we are given in class and hope to continue this. For example, we have done a presentation with a conversation in Spanish. We were told to converse with another student. Not only did this help me improve in the language but also help me get to know my peers.

2. I can find it easy to be party of a group.

I can always discuss with the peers around me. We can always help one another with work. This helps me improve my learning and skills for the class. For example, if I am ever stuck on a question and need help understanding, I can always look around for help to the people next to me.

3. I can reflect on my thinking.

I can reflect on my thinking by checking my work twice before submitting any type of work in. I can also do this by asking questions and reflecting on my answers. If I am doing a test, I can always check it over and reflect on my thinking then. I do this with any type of work to help me understand what I am doing.

Core Competency Self-Assessment

Social Awareness and Responsibility

My teacher has assigned the class to create a body biography related to the characters in the novel “Kill A Mockingbird”. My group of four includes Katalina, Lucas, Sabrina and myself. We have picked the Character Atticus from the novel. While doing this project together we have communicated, discussed and evaluated each other. We have all communicated to help each other get things done for the project and we have used communication to learn. For example if we didn’t get enough information to put on our poster, we would go to the novel and discuss what other things we could add to our project to make it better. I feel like working as a group really helps each individual work on our work ethics. Such as communication, socials skills and critical thinking. We could always work on areas we struggle in as well. As for myself I would like to work on critical thinking; thinking outside the box while working as a group.

Our Utopian City

SnowCity

By: Eshana, Nick, Zoey

Health – Health is a trait that each of us value. How we included it in our city was by adding a hospital, gym, and people either snowboarding or skiing. A hospital is a good way of showing health because they try to keep you in good health if you aren’t. They tell you what to do or take to stay healthy. The gym represents health because the gym help you maintain your weight and, keeps you on a good diet. Your weight and what you eat are a big part of help. Skiing and Snowboarding are both sports and doing sports is good for your health so is the communication you have with your team. they keep you motivated and help you have a positive mindset. This is also a part of being healthy, not just with your body but healthy for you mentally. All of these are located in our city. The hospital is next to the church, the gym is next to the restaurant and the snowboarders and skiers are by the snowy mountains.

Healthy Relationships – One of the values that our group feels that is really important to have is healthy relationships. The buildings in our city that represent healthy relationships are: The hotel, this spot could be used for honeymoons/family vacations. The restaurant, this spot can be used for family dinners, date nights, and outings with friends. Park this spot is a place where young kids and moms can make friends and connect through play. Houses that are close together establishing a trust between the families. I believe healthy relationships is a key value to have in any town because whether its friends, family, or lovers’ healthy relationships establish not only trust but also a sense of belonging as you feel happy knowing you are surrounded by people your close to.

Community – Living in a city means, living in a place where community is important. A Good community where its safe, happy, kind, and has a great environment, is where people would want to live for the rest of their lives. Snow city’s community is a joyful and free place to explore, that includes companionship, goodwill, devotion, etc. Its important for this community to stay positive, in order for people to feel safe and confident. At Snow City our community is always fun and cheerful, when people ice skate around the Christmas tree in the park , ski or snowboard on top of the mountains, and spread love and kindness to each other while doing it.

Blue

The colour blue symbolizes trust and loyalty two things that our group believes is crucial to a good city. Trust and loyalty between citizens establish strong bonds and connections amongst people which we believe is really important. This colour can be found throughout the city on buildings and in the sky.

White

The colour white symbolizes successful beginnings and protection. With a new city our group believes heavily in the citizens feeling safe and the colour white symbolizes that. Also, successful beginnings are key in the start of a new city so white seems fitting. White can be seen all around our city as white is the colour of snow.

Communication/Reflection

The project is about what our values are and working as a group, what values we all value. We chose Health, Healthy Relationships and Community. We used City Creator to create our city named Snow city. Each of us took turns giving ideas and we all did one value each so it was an equal share into the project. We communicated by texting each other through a group chat. We connected our ideas together and created a city showing each of our values. We listened to their ideas and opinions and improved our city by doing that. We worked well together, and we had good communication. We didn’t face any problems, instead we helped each other out and we were all satisfied with our city in the end. To improve we could of added more values and add more details in the city.
