Curricular Competencies Reflection

Comprehend and Connect: During this assignment I learnt how in poems there is lots of symbolism. I grew in my reading skills when analysing this poem. I had to consider different perspectives and meanings in this text to create a well rounded analysis. I will take what I learned and use it towards working on reconciliation by connecting real life issues to those in stories. This can help younger generations by being able to relate ongoing issues with to things they can understand.

 Core Competencies Reflection

Critical/Reflective Thinking: I grew in this core competency when completing this assignment. I can now better analyse evidence to make judgements. I had to read over the poem many times and try to get a better understanding of the symbols and their different meanings.
