For my artifact, I chose my photo project. The goal for this project was to take pictures of the places you visit most often and talk about the land it’s located on. I liked doing this project because I like taking photos and I enjoyed learning about the land I live on and how to pay respects and acknowledge it properly.

Curricular Competency Reflection

I proved my ability to Create and Communicate. This artifact was created through generating visuals and describing why this location was significant to First Peoples. The First Peoples have many tales about this area and how it created their world, and by going out and investigating it for myself, I gained a better understanding of why the Land shapes who they are.

Core Competencies Reflection

By gaining a stronger connection to the earth via personal experiences, I developed in thinking competency while constructing this artefact. I could use Imagery to picture their tales and understand how they perceived the world to be shaped around them. This was represented in my writing, which explained the storylines and areas of the photos made.
