Core Competency Reflection

I ask and respond to questions to be an active, supportive listener: I ask questions when i don’t understand the assignment which shows that I’m an active and supportive listener.

I give, receive, and act on feedback to progress in my goals: I tried not to be on my phone during class to get better marks in Spanish course.

I deliberately learn about things that interest me, and new ideas pop into my head.: I studied Spanish during class instead of going on my phone to get better at Spanish.

My goal is to finish my homework on time. To achieve that goal, i will try not to go on my phone during class and study after school.
