Communication/Collaboration

My above artifact is a squid my partner and I dissected together during a lab activity. Before starting the lab, we thoroughly planned our approach. We discussed who was going to collect the necessary tools, and what our personal duties were. This ensured that we were prepared before beginning the lab, making the process smooth. We collaborated all throughout the class, communicating and working together to maintain an efficient and successful lab. My partner collected the squid while I gathered the dissection tools. Together, we found various parts on the squid and labeled our scientific drawings, ensuring accuracy. I used several strategies to collect relevant information for the lab, including asking my partner clarifying questions and seeking guidance from the teacher when needed. This collaborative approach allowed us to successfully complete the lab while learning significant information about squid anatomy. I can ask and respond to questions to be an active, supportive listener when my partner is unsure about a task.

My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

In this unit, I learned the proper steps of performing CPR. I also learned the major differences between a heart attack, a cardiac arrest and a stroke. Additionally, I learned about the several risk factors that can lead to these incidents. This includes lack of exercise, stress, and smoking.

A key takeaway from this unit was how to perform CPR. If you are trained, step in and make a difference. Never assume someone else will.

Throughout the nutrition unit, we discovered what components make up a healthy diet. This includes a balance of fruits, veggies, grains, proteins and water. If someone’s diet is considered “unhealthy” They are more likely to
have the risk factors that increase the chance of heart disease or stroke. This includes obesity and high blood cholesterol.

Core Competency Reflection

I can describe how CPR relates to my life. I have had various family members suffer from a stroke. If this happens again, I will know what to do. I understand “hazards and holler,” and “PLT,” and can transfer this to a real life situation.

In this unit, I am proud that I received a 29/30 on the exam. I accomplished this by paying attention in class, and studying the booklet we were given.

In discussions and conversations, I help to build understanding by filling out the booklet questions after every class. This helped me refresh my memory and obtain new knowledge.
