In this project i collaborated very well with my partner. We learned how to communicate and work with each other in a productive way. An example of this is, when we were setting up and figuring out how to proceed with the lab in an orderly way, we had been confused about what to do, but together we looked through the steps one by one and split up some of the instructions. i think through this activity i was able to practice my communication skills and i also think that this activity taught me how to work with others that i may not know or be comfortable with.
Mi horario is a times table of all my classes explaining the students and teachers associated with it. i felt that i was really creative while explaining what my classes are like. i really enjoyed writing it. i was able to use my Spanish vocab in a practical way which was very useful and fun.
core competency reflection
I can give, receive, and act on feedback to achieve my goals.
when I was creating mi horario I would often ask for my friends their opinion. They would give me suggestions and I usually would put them to consideration and or act and build upon them.
I can recognize my emotions and use strategies to manage them.
often times while I was doing mi horario project, I got easily frustrated over tiny details I couldn’t figure out. over time however, I’ve learned how to recognize when i start to get annoyed and manage it by taking a little break.
I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy, I take pride in my work and myself.
After almost every project I complete, I feel accomplished and happy that it’s over. It feels good to finally finish work that’s been hanging over my head.
I can identify my strengths and potential.
after doing mi horario I identified one of my strengths. I’m decently good at making work look appealing, so that’s what I did.
my goal
My goal going forward this year is to grow better work ethic, by doing my homework straight when I get home, instead of checking my social media, because it’s very distracting.
Explain how you figured out what your Avatar would look like.
The book fully described her, except for her body figure. I guessed that from the way that they talked about her.
· How did you choose plot points to focus on for your movie?
they seemed like good build up points to the story.
· Explain what you know about figuring out setting in a story.
if the book didn’t already explain, then a way that we can figure out the setting is by taking in the little details like what town there near or how they talk, if they have phones etc..
· Explain what the word mood means in literature and movies. Why did you pick the song that you picked?
The mood is the amount of seriousness in the story. like if the setting is a war, than the mood would be sad or depressing. I chose the song that I choose because my book made me cry a couple times and piano music really enhances that a little more. I would have used different music if I could find it.
· Don’t forget a conclusion sentence!
Core Competency Reflection
When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I take a little break by going outside and taking in the view or I make tea.
I appreciate feedback on my work so I can improve, and I prefer it in the form of little notes.
Some skills I have developed to make my creative activities better are being aware that I can only do so much in one day. So, I have to take breaks and let my mind reset every once in a while.
I know that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences, for example, i need to be careful about what I post online because it could very likely affect my future career or schooling etc… so I adjust my actions by thinking carefully about how I do things online.
Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence include not opening sketchy texts or adds, because they may lead me to illegal websites or some kind of scam etc…
My strengths as a digital citizen include that I’m very careful about what I post online and I’m not opening texts from strangers or giving them personal info.
