English First Peoples 11 Reflection

Book spotlight for “The Night Wanderer”

Curricular Competencies Reflection

During this assignment I learned different aspects of indigenous culture such as the stories they share, the difficulties they face from racism and what they were born into. I connected the purpose of the author to the views they tried to share to readers through their book. My reading skills grew as I connected what I read to deeper topics.

Core Competencies Reflection

I can take on roles and responsibilities in a group. I reflected this during small group activities where everyone had different tasks.

Communication

California Squid (Henry) dissected during Life Sciences 11

During this lab, I showed good communication with my partner. I was quick to ask questions when I wasn’t sure of something, and put in effort to make sure they understood too. I did my best to equally assign tasks between my partner and I, so that we both felt included in the dissection. Each time I did something, I tried to share any interesting observations made to my partner so that both of us were learning. I also took some time to try to find different body parts on the diagram to point out on the actual squid.
