Math Self Assessment

When I am sad, angry or frustrated, breathing exercises, and drawing comforting things help me be more productive or calm.

The ways I communicate at school differ from how I communicate at home in these ways: At school when I communicate I tend to be more nervous, cautious, and quiet when I speak, I also try to listen intently in class and convey my questions/work clearly(though still tend to be messy). Home is a bit different.

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen in my math assignments where I clearly record my process in finding answers to questions.

To celebrate an accomplishment such as getting a good mark on a test, I tell my family and friends and metaphorically pat myself on the back. 🙂

Artifact: Poetry Assignment

I demonstrated creative thinking in my assignment, I drew on experiences and personal feelings to weave my own poems. I tried my best to imitate the feelings from those experiences in creative ways by using metaphors and similes. When trying to find the right words and approaches to how to construct the poems I often created drafts of the poem and stitched together words from them until it all fit together right. In the future I’d like to learn how to better illustrate ideas and feelings in even more creative language and longer poems.

I demonstrated creative thinking in my portrait assignment.

To make this portrait and the elements in it, I first thought about what colors I associate with the person I’m drawing, I then looked at color blocking artwork and came up with my own shapes and lines based on the image I had for my portrait. I also condensed the image to basic shapes so that it would be easier for me to color block and draw.

CPR Reflection

I hadn’t realized how much energy it took to perform CPR, and if not for this course i wouldn’t know anything about heart attacks or cardiac arrest, nor would i have considered learning it. My main takeaway from this unit was how important it is to learn CPR and other basic types of First Aid, if schools continue to train their students how to perform CPR then the chances of more lives being saved will climb, and i think that’s great. This unit relates to the nutrition unit because of the relation between healthy eating and heart attacks, your chances of heart disease are much lesser if you maintain a healthy diet.

Core Competency Reflection

I ask and respond to questions to be an active, supportive listener. 

I actively listen and respond to questions from the teacher during class, i demonstrate this in all my classes.

I work with others to achieve a goal.  

During volleyball I worked with my teammates to get the ball over the net frequently, I’ve also had to work with teammates in other PE activities.

I give, receive, and act on feedback to progress in my goals. 

When given feedback and tips during volleyball i act on it to progress towards my goal of becoming better at the game we’re playing.

I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy. I take pride in my work and  myself. 

I demonstrate this from time to time and take pride in the work I do well in. (such as tests or performing tasks/activities)

Artifact: Character Autobiography

In my TKAM Ms. Dubose body Biography I used critical thinking when analyzing this character. I looked back on writings from the book and recalled key character moments for Ms. Dubose, because the character is only present in a small portion of the book I had to make connections to behaviors and actions different from certain conclusions I’ve drawn.
