This is a poem I made in English with the theme being Love Poems.
Curricular Competencies Reflection.
What I learned during this assignment was trying to fit in the requirements which took a lot of thinking, and how to use them, for example, I had to have at least 1 metaphor, 1 simile, 1 personification, and 2 senses or more used in the poem. After this assignment, I feel like I improved my writing skills since this was one of my first times writing a poem with those requirements, and I had to redo the poem a few times because the poem wasn’t properly structured.
Core Competencies Reflection.
In discussions and conversations, I help to build and extend understanding by… repeating what the speaker had said in my way and in a less complex way. To help build conversations, I would find more information on the topic that was spoken and get the opinion of my peers.
The ways I communicate at school differ from how I communicate with the family in these ways: I come from a Spanish/English speaking household, when I communicate with my mother I speak to her in Spanish, with my father and brother I communicate with them in English, so my communication will vary, depending on who I’m talking to.
I can demonstrate my critical and reflectivethinking skills through this project by…
Doing the plan for it, every project that has been done there has been a plan for it which consist of thinking it through and reflecting after it has been done.
I can recognize my emotions and use strategies to manage them.
During this project I had many difficulties like, missing a stick, by pulling the two line of yarns instead of two, and when that happened I would just stop, because it would get me frustrated and I would just try to fix the mistake calmly, and just try to be more careful next time ,so, I wouldn’t get frustrated anymore.
I can identify and describe my qualities.
I would say one of my best qualities is learning fast, if I can get the hang of it, I’m pretty much set for. For this project I only watched one video for 5 minutes and I already knew what I was doing, it may take my a few tried but in the end Ill understand be able to do what U have my mind on.
I really enjoyed drawing it in general and what made it special for me is that before I’ve had people tell me that when they see a fox they think of me, and I think its because they’re always smiling and making the fox noise that makes them sound like they’re happy all the time.
I’ve had many experiences before that I have learned from to be a better person by learning from my mistakes. My family and heritage have made me learn a lot of stuff that I would say have helped me shape who I am today.
I try to think first before doing something, like for example thinking of the consequences. I sometimes I’m easily influenced by others but not serious things more like if the majority of people want to go to the beach instead of the mall, I would choose what the majority of people want to go to.
I feel like what makes me unique is my personality, I have a very bubbly personality which sometimes I question but still like.
I make digital ethical choices such as… in order to…
Such as double thinking about what I post in order to have a clean digital footprint.
Such as having two-step verification on my accounts in order to not get hacked that easily.
Some of the ways I work to build and maintain online relationships are…
That I always talk nicely, I try to share funny things so they can have a laugh, I encourage them on things that are good when they ask me an opinion on something I always try to stay on the truth but always try and say it in a nice way.
Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence include…
Not to post on my stories things that might upset people who see them, making sure whatever I post won’t be inappropriate, and not to use harsh words, I try to show how I feel but not overshare.
I can persevere with challenging tasks and take ownership of my goals by…
Taking my time and figure out how challenging it is and if I can find a way of overcoming it, after I have found a solution I will take my time so I don’t make any mistakes. To take ownership of my goals I will try my best to achieve them, even if here is something in the way.
I have learned to be more confident in public speaking. Additionally I have learned that I feel less nervous if I’m doing public speaking with someone else rather than by myself. One thing that is really necessary is that I have to make eye contact which for me is kind of hard since I feel awkward doing that so I would just look to a wall or outside which I would try to learn to do differently. One major thing that public speaking helps me learn is improving my English when I speak especially since it is kind of hard to because English is my second language.

Although I’m challenged by feeling insecure I can get through this challenge by tapping in to my mind and convincing it to not think negative and to stop comparing myself to other because not everyone is the same.
When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I…
When I usually need to boost my mood I tend to take a nap, but sometimes i cant do that because for some reason because then at night I’m not tired so I end up falling asleep late and not sleeping enough hours. Another thing that’s on my way is homework, when I’m stressed I feel exhausted so I cant relax properly, so if I do my homework as soon as I arrive home wont feel stressed for the rest of the day.
Some short/ long term goals for myself include… and my plan to achieve them is…
A long term goal I have for myself is having a better academic score and achieving this includes trying my best at all times, because even when doing something simple if you give your best you might get rewarded later on. Another major thing is that I need to stop studying the night before of a test to achieve my goal, instead what I should do is study through out the some days before my test so I’m fully prepared
Our project is supposed to show an extravagant item people can buy and wear. We used ethical persuasion techniques which we can find through the quote of Katniss Everdeen’s stylist. The advertising techniques we used were glittering generalities and card stacking. We can take a look at the card stacking which is at the top left corner where it says “100% SAFE” and “100% STYLE”. For example, we used a more fancy font on the “Ever” in the quote. To conclude we hope you enjoy our ad

A family wants to make a plan for the week which includes everyone, they want to know who will cook each day, what will be made, how much to make and at what time will dinner be done. They want this plan to not interrupt their weekly activities.
Solution:
Justification:
Monday’s plan for dinner works well because Parent A is the one who is cooking because they are the first parent to arrive, they arrive at 4:30 and since they chose Chicken Noodle Soup, this takes about 45 minutes to get ready which is just enough time for parent A and the teens to eat although Parent B would be late for dinner by 15 minutes.
Tuesday’s plan for dinner works perfectly since they decided to make an easy but delicious dinner which only takes 5 minutes to prepare, they also decided to make double the recipe because it needs enough portion for everyone but since teen 1 is the one who’s cooking arrives at 3:30 pm which would be too early for dinner to they decided to wait until 5:55 pm to start.
Wednesday’s plan for dinner works well because Teen 2 is now the one who is cooking with the help of Parent A since teen 2 is a beginner cook, that’s why they decided to go with an easier dinner to make, that only takes 15 minutes to prepare and if they start and 5:30 which is when Parent B arrives it leaves enough time to have a family dinner.
Thursday’s plan for dinner will work well because since everyone had already cooked it only be right if parent B is the one cooking and since they are making only 1 recipe it’s enough for everyone and by the time dinner is done everyone gets to eat without interrupting their activities.
Friday’s plan for dinner works because they are making enough for everyone and since dinner will be done by 6 everyone will have enough time to eat peacefully without worrying that they will be late for any activity.
Our group decided to place read out loud the questions and then the possible answers so everyone could agree or disagree.
Our group used a computer for our technology and we used Word for making the table because we were already familiar with the tables of Word than the ones from this page.
Since the day we distributed the days of the week, I wasn’t there, so my teammates decided that I should do Wednesday and then my teammates distributed the other days between them.
We completed all tasks and you can’t really see the distribution visually but my teammates tried to help each other in every situation, and if someone wasn’t there while working on the project, one of us would email them and describe what they missed and what the needed to do.
Hello, my name is Ana Maria Infante for short just Ana. I’m 14 years old and I’m a Pisces. I was born in Colombia, March 8th. On February the 5th 2020, I came to Canada. My friends would say I’m funny, nice and a little bit shy which is true because when I meet new people I’m always shy but when I get comfortable I tend to get louder and less shy. I don’t have many hobbies but some of the ones I have but don’t do much anymore is roller skating, might not be a hobby but I tend to stay in my room and relax by watching some Netflix. Currently, I’m living with both of my parents, my older brother and my adorable puppy Lyla. Some things I like are stuffed animals because they are so cute, and there is one stuffed animal that is special for me because it reminds me of a dog we sadly had to give away. I can speak Spanish and I’m trying to learn Korean.
