Core Competency Final Reflection

My First year

This year has gone well. I made various cool graphs in a few math projects. I made quite the splendid English project on the book Homeland by Cory Doctorow which I’m proud of. I won a top student award in choir but you can’t see it in the picture below because I folded it up and put it in my pocket like an idiot.

Hooray!

Improve studying habitsAsk for help with studying or take advice from people on how best to study.

Final Concert Reflection

Just imagine him playing clair de lune while reading this

also i put an audio file of clair de lune below just for funzies.
I feel that the concert went fairly well all things considered. I’m pretty sure I smiled and moved a lot more than the last few concerts which is good however I’m not sure if I sang all you need is love very well. Voice Dance turned out surprisingly well considering it was a mess until the last few days before the concert. All You Need Is Love existed which was bad and a few people’s mics were K E R F U Z Z L E D. as per usual I was very worried about looking soulless while performing. All You Need Is Love also happened which was no good, terrible, rotten, boring, annoying, stupid, vile and woeful. Hanbin and Sophie were good in it though. I really enjoyed the jr band’s performance of Never Gonna Give You up and the senior band’s performance of various Smash Mouth songs and Don’t Stop Me Now. I also enjoyed their performance of Beyond The Sea with Katrina soloing. Sharif and Sabrina also did a really good job mcing unlike me last concert.

CORE COMPETENCY SHENANIGANS

I hate doing these so much

I think I have demonstrated good communication through the way I moved while performing. I also feel that I have improved the way I move to express certain emotions while performing.

The image above conveys how dead inside I look during most concerts and events involving choir. This was not the case during this last concert as you can see in the image below.
hooray/Huzzah!

Science 9 Competence Reflection

Featured Video Play Icon

A R T I F A C T… wow

Core Competence Explanation.

My artifact is the mitosis stop motion video I made. It is a bit rough but I like the little organelle goblins I made. I feel that I have communicated the metaphase and anaphase well through the designs of my little organelle goblins and how they move in the video.

Reflecting On My First Year

My Grade 9 Year

This year was pretty okay at first before i became a straight c- student in the second half, that wasn’t great. I really enjoyed my first year at Centennial despite having less than satisfactory grades because of the many new friends I made and it being a lot less tedious than middle school. One project I am quite proud of is my novel study project because I added multiple music tracks, some really good images and put probably the most effort I’ve ever put into any project, however it is a bit rough around the edges and it is a bit of a mess when it comes to my writing and transitions. Overall I have really enjoyed my first year at centennial and I look forward to the following years.

My Favorite Website

https://zbib.org/

I like this website because it helps me site sources for my projects fast and efficiently. It was a huge help for projects like my novel study and this one.

My Favorite Videos

https://newskit.social/videos/Mitosis—Stages-of-Mitosis–Cells–Biology–FuseSchool

These videos helped me better understand and visualize the process of mitosis while I was working on my stop motion animation project for science.

My Favorite Image

This is a goofy image of a hacker I used in my novel movie project of the book Homeland by Cory Doctorow for my English class. i also chose this because it was my image favorite that I used in my project.

My Favorite Quote

“Be the trouble you want to see in the world, above nationalism, above so-called patriotism, above and beyond fear and make it count for the betterment of the planet. Legal and illegal are not the same as right and wrong – do what is right and never give up the fight.”-from the Afterword by Jacob Appelbaum featured in Homeland by Cory Doctorow, page 384.

I chose this quote because it was in the book I chose for my novel study. I also chose it like it’s message and how it connects to the story of the book.

Health and Wellness Core Compitency Reflection

I admit that I’m not the best when it comes to health and wellness but this is a paragraph of stuff I do to improve or detriment it.I’m planning on going to a gym a few times a week this month and that improves both my physical and mental health, I don’t normally do that. I make a lot freinds when I’m not in PHE and that improves my mental health. But I use my phone way too much which detriments my mental health. I also don’t get much exorsize which is undoubtedly bad for my mental health.

What’s the World Around Town?

Core Competency Reflection.

In hindsight I probably shouldn’t have picked my town/city for of its dumb name instead of checking if it was good for the project, which it wasn’t. So, I probably won’t do that again.

.I also should have changed my city/town when I found out that it was bad for the project.

.When I found out why it was bad for the problem I attempted to fix it by looking for economic activities that weren’t as well documented as mining.
