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.

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.
