Core Competency Self-Assessment

Reflection on Collaboration and Conflict Resolution

Collaboration

I think I can collaborate pretty well in groups because I can get along with other people easily

usually I like to avoid small conflicts but if its a big conflict I would usually go for Accommodating the other person or the group because I don’t want to have fights over things

I think the one thing I could improve on is my Listening skill because usually I just talk to the other person to just make them get other the conflict and not listen to what the want to say

Meal planning assignment

Problem

the goal of the assignment was to make a meal plan for the entire family. We needed to make sure that everyone participated. We needed to consider when people were home and what time someone may need to leave for evening activities.  

solution

justification

On Monday … for Monday we picked to make chicken noodle soup. for the portion we will make the whole recipe, but we will have two extra servings we will let the teens bring the extra servings to school. For cooks we picked parent b and teen 1 because parent b comes home at 5:30 and teen 1 comes home at 5:00 so when parent b comes home, they both start cooking. We made dinner time at 6.20 because it takes about 45 minutes to make the chicken noodle soup and to prepare the food and set the dinner table. So, they have 1 hour to eat the chicken noodle soup  

On Tuesday … for Tuesday we chose to make the vegetable pad Thai. For the portion we will make the whole recipe, for the cooks we picked parent A and teen 1 because parent A comes home at 5:00 and teen 1 comes home at 3:30. When parent A gets home both parent A and teen 1 and get started on cooking dinner. We decided on choosing 5:40 to 640 as our dinner time because to make the pad Thai it takes about 35 minutes also like setting up the table and like other things. So, in conclusion they will receive an hour of eating time

On Wednesday … For Wednesday we decided to have Parent B and Teen 2 to make grilled cheese sandwiches. We had them cook at the same time to save time because the time they had was slim. The time to make grilled cheese was 10 minutes with a serving of 2, so we had 2 people make them at the same time to save 10 minutes and have enough food for every member of the family. We made the time to eat 30 minutes from 6:00 to 6:30 because we gave them time to rest when they get home and time to setup the table, the reason dinner time is only 30 minutes is because we thought that 30 minutes was enough time to talk together as a family and way more than enough time to each a single grilled cheese sandwich. 

On Thursday we chose to make our own pizza because it’s quick and easy with little to no prep. This is also a meal that everyone can participate in to customize. Parent B gets home first this day, so it is easy for them to start this recipe. The make your own pizza have more Nutrional value because you can use fresh ingredients.  

On Friday … We had Parent B to cook tortilla soup on Friday. We chose this person because they were the 1st parent to get home. The teens didn’t have enough experience to make a soup. This recipe is 8 servings you will have left overs for the next day.

  4. for the tasks that I completed was, for the solution I did half of Monday half of Tuesday and half of Wednesday and I also did Monday’s and Tuesday’s justification and for the last thing I did was the problem part

self assessment: collaboration and critical thinking

I know the group is working well together when I hear/ see the whole group working together and giving ideas for the project and helping each other to finish the project as fast as passible and as well as we can.

If there is disagreement within the group, I find it helpful to talk amongst our group to find an answer to the problem instead of fighting with each other.

I can describe how … (this thing I learned at school) relates to this experience I had where one time I had to make dinner for my family and I had to find out when I should start cooking dinner and when people come home so when they all come home they don’t have to wait for dinner they can just eat right away

I compile and synthesize information to draw reasoned conclusions, such as when I was doing my justification I compiled a lot of information for the justification and I so much info that it was easy to get reasoned conclusions

math 9 Core Competencies

I can reflect on my thinking when I do math. if I’m ever stuck on something I usually do the question a few times then go back to break down what I do in step by step then if I still don’t get the answer I would ask the person right next to me asking him for some feedback and ask him if I did it right or not. if the person next to me and I both don’t get it or have the answer then I would go ask the teacher after getting help I walk back to my desk and check on my work and reflect on based on the question steps. I really like math class because its better then middle school math and it feels better

Core Competency

 Industrial revolution shark tank project

I can reflect on my thinking.

I can reflect on my thinking and my project because I realized that my presentation was not that good because my project had a lot of misspelled words in the PowerPoint and other things also we did not do that great at presenting the project we were looking down when we were talking and others things if we had a little more time to do the project we would have edited the PowerPoint and fix the spelling, practice on presenting the project with my partner because my partner and I did not have time edit the project or practice our PowerPoint at all we kinda rushed it to be honest. in conclusion, if my partner and I had like one more block to work we would have had a better project

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

I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy on our PowerPoint. after we finished I was so relieved like I was talking to myself and saying “yes finally it’s done I don’t have to suffer through this anymore”. I and my partner started talking right after saying “damn bro we did so bad on the presentation” because we were looking down at our paper while we were talking and other things also we had a lot of spelling mistakes overall we did pretty bad on the project. but I took pride in my work like I felt satisfaction after finishing. we did our project and presented it even tho we did do that great compared to other people we tried our best.
