My Parabola

My Equation

Parent Function

y = x^2

Desmos graph (Red: Mine / Blue: Parent function)

My vertex (-5,-7)

Parent function vertex (0,0)

Paragraph

The significance of a, explains if the parabola is either wider or narrower and also the direction of which way the parabola will open. When a is negative, the parabola opens down. But when the a is positive, the parabola opens up. Since the a of my parabola is positive, my parabola opened up just like like the parent function. Also, a positive value of a closer to zero makes a wider parabola. The significance of h, explains whether the parabola will shift right or left. According to the equation formula, it says (x-h), meaning that if h is positive, your parabola will shift to the right and when it’s negative your parabola will shift to the left. Since the h of my parabola is (x+5), my parabola shifted 5 times to the left. Last but not least, the significance of k tells whether the parabola shifts up or down. When the k is positive the parabola shifts up and when the k is negative the parabola shifts down. The K of my parabola was -7 so my parabola shifted -7 times downwards.

Self assessment

  1. I wrote down my equation and family function. Then I put it on desmos to compare both graphs.

2. I used vertex, parabola, negative, positive, family function to show my understanding.

3. I used desmos because it’s more accurate than my hand drawn graph and it’s easier to do.

Comparison to my home country

South Korea and Spain are two nations with unique geographic, historical, and cultural traits. Spain is a country in Southwest Europe that is known for their landscapes, lively culture, and lengthy history. There are cities in Spain such as Madrid and Barcelona. They also have their tradional food which includes tapas and paella. However, South Korea is an East Asian nation and their capital city is Seoul.

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.

English First Peoples 11 Reflection

Andy - Myungseong on

My Artifact:

I managed to focus and finish most of the works during class. I asked few questions to my peers and teacher when I faced challenges throughout the assignment.

Curricular Competencies Reflection

I improved a lot on my reading, listening and view skills during class by doing a lot of assignments that were related to listening and comprehending to the Indigenous peoples’ speeches. We practiced a lot on listening to their stories and understanding them. We also watched movies or read articles about their heritage or cultures that explains about their stories.

Core Competencies Reflection

I performed my thinking skills by researching about my topic and sharing it to my peers to make bring up with solid ideas. I would research and spend more time reviewing on my own work to develop my work for next time.
