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.

Math Core Competency Self Assessment

Andy - Myungseong on

An example of something I have spent a lot of time learning about is Polynomial.

When I’m sad, angry or
frustrated, doing Math helps me be more productive or calm.

When I need to boost my mood or re focus, I play basketball and chill.


By helping math in the classroom, I make a positive difference to my peers.

PHOTO OF OUR GROUP WORK

Core competency reflection

I can work with others to achieve a goal: I can share my information to my group and get information from my group and finish the work. My group can make conversations about the information, if the information is correct or wrong.

I can ask and respond to questions to be an active supportive listener: I listen to what my group says and If I don’t understand something, then I ask questions. So I can make sure if I’m understanding them in a right way.

I think about what I am going to convey and to whom I will convey it: I hear something about new information and I tell my group about the new information. So my group can make conversations about the new information and see if the new information is correct.

I can understand and share information about a topic of interest in a clear organized way: I hear some information and tell the information in a easy way. So my group can understand what I’m saying.

My goal is to pass this course. I need to pass this course so I can move to the next level. I’m going to hand in my homework and projects on time so I get more credits and pass this course.
