Core Competency Self-Assessment

Critical and Reflective Thinking

I believe the French revolution was justified, the French revolution started because the king was not being fair to the third estate because they had to pay all the taxes, so they felt like they needed to take action. The king wasn’t doing his job because on the day of the Bastille (July 14, 1789) he wrote “Nothing” in his diary but outside people are breaking the Bastille was by their hands. Some people had to be made an example out of and it had to be the king and queen who caused and did nothing to stop the oppression of their people. I think the French revolution brought those who starved to death while the queen said “let them eat cake” justice. I feel like I can analyze evidence to make judgments, i am not afraid to make bold claims and write what I feel.

My Movie

Plot, Character, Setting and Mood

Explain how you figured out what your Avatar would look like.

I figured out what the characters looked like because in the book the characters were described well enough, so I had an idea of what they looked like.

Explain what you know about figuring out setting in a story..

In the novel, it explains that all the characters are in Saint Graces hospital, and when they leave the hospital, they are still around it meaning that they are outside or by a pond

Explain what the word mood means in literature and movies. Why did you pick the song that you picked?

The mood is a feeling that can change the way the reader/audience views the book/movie. The mood can be changed by the weather, the music and the filters. For example, if you were watching a horror movie and there was no sound it would be immensely less scary because there isn’t sound to build up the mood/atmosphere. Music, filters, and weather are very important factors it makes up the mood of the book/movie.

Core Competency Reflection

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I listen to music. Listening to music helps me escape reality and get lost in another world, it helps me re-focus when I have something important to do like homework or if I need to study it blocks out background noises and helps me block out distractions. Listening to music even makes a small task more enjoyable. Some of my favorite artists are Lana del rey, The Weeknd, Drake, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, and Lil Uzi Vert.
