I statement: I can make an ethical judgment about the treatment of the children in Indian Residential Schools
No, what happened was no way right or fair. The kids were taken away from their families and put into residential schools where they would get stripped of their culture. They would get their hair cut, names changed making them forget their identities, and forced to do chores that might be dangerous. Kids would get beaten, hit, abused, and left in horrible conditions. Some of them would be left to die and buried in unmarked graves. Because of all the stuff that happened, I believe that this was not fair.
My most important goals for this year are to get proficiency as majority on my marks and to make it to team Canada this year. I must be sure to commit to these goals if I want to accomplish them. Even if I want to play games and hang out with my friends, I need to prioritize what’s important. If I want to earn the majority of my grades proficiency I must set aside time for work, do all of my assignments, and try my best on each one. I must attend every training for gymnastics and give it my all. Competing successfully and not letting my anxiety get to me. Having a good mindset and being confident in myself.

Personal/Social Competency Reflection
I know that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences, A negative digital footprint can have an impact on how people see you, your reputation, and perhaps even your career. So I adjust my actions to ensure I stay safe on the internet. Making sure my privacy settings are right, being aware of what I post on the internet, and not giving out my passwords to other people.
My online support network is helpful to me because it keeps me informed and up to date. Teams are one example. It allows my teachers to upload assignments, reminders, and other information. This can help me make sure I get all my assignments in on time, know when tests are and overall help me do better in school.
I think my experiences as a digital citizen, such as a person who’s always on their phone influenced my choice of hobbies and sports and what I like to do with my time. I frequently see arts and crafts, dancing, fashion, and a variety of sports on social media. Most of the time I would want to try to learn or create new things with the inspiration I get from the internet.
