in this lab i demonstrated the skills to have if you wanted to be a chemist. we mixed together a bunch of different liquids. i showed communication skills as i worked with my partner to get the lab done. i also showed that i had the skill to complete the lab assignment sheet, i could write out where everything went and i could figure out what the lab was asking me to do. i could work on making sure that the pallet was clean because i didnt rince it fully causing the liquids to change colour very quickly or even without the 2 liquids that were meant to mix.
i was most proud of my novel study of Fahrenheit 451. i had read half of the novel before finding that the graphic novel was a better read for me. i finished the graphic novel and tried to talk during the discussions about the book. the final project i did was a podcast on the characters in the book. i was most proud of this assignment because it turned out really well. it was the best assignment i did within the class. me and my partner filled out character cards for each character and shared our research and our thoughts on each. we took 2 of the ideas given to us and put it into 1 big partner project. we used collaberation and creative thinking for this project. we also used communication thought the whole unit and put it in as part of our project. i learned alot from this unit from how to make and create a podcast to finding you can do a novel study in many different ways. this will help me in the future and in the future of my learning
i learned that you need to check the surroundings and talk to the person before doing any type of compressions. we also learned how the heart works and different type of risks you take. smoking is the most common risk in all of Canada. the key take away from this unit was how to complete cpr. you have to go around 5 cm into the chest with one hand under the other with your fingers locked. this unit focused on the heart and real life situations. the previous unit focused on your diet and excersise. nutrition and excersise helps prevent heart attacks and or strokes. this helps with your health physically and mentally.
Core Competency Reflection
i can describe how learning about CPR relates to my life by making up senarios and looking at the health part. i compare it to how i live my life and if i need to make changes in my deit or excersise to my everyday life to prevent those heart problems.
in this unit i am most proud of my test. i got perfect on it. it is the first test i have done all semester and it turned out really well.
one of the ways i can see using this learning to help others is by teaching them how to save a life and if it happens in real life. if someone needed CPR i could give it to them becuase ” i am trained, i can do this”

How To Perform CPR: CPR for Beginners. 11 July 2022, https://firstaidcoursesdarwin.com.au/blog/cpr-for-beginners/.
this was the first lab we completed in this class. while making these cookies we had to watch a demo on how to make this lab the day before. The next day comes around and you have to reread your recipe and ask any questions, then you will discuss with your table group and your partner the duties you will be responsible for and the tasks you are being asked to complete. after each recipe you have to complete a slide in out food folio reflecting on the recipe and lab. this recipe made 12 cookies, i got to bring home 6 of them and my partner brought home 6. i ate one cookie and the rest was split between my friends and my family members. these cookies were made by me and my partner Avery. we worked really well together and became friends.
Core Competency Reflection
If there is disagreement within the group, I find it helpful to agree with the majority because there wont be any arguments and then more people are happy. the food will still taste good and will still end up the same. another core competency i followed was I know the group is working well together when I hear/ see everyone getting along and when everyone is staying on task, gets everything done on time, and when people are doing their own jobs properly. when the unit is all clean and everything is put in the right spots you know that you have done all the clean up and jobs properly. One goal i have is to read over my recipe and ask any questions if i dont understand something. My strategies for collecting relevant information for specific tasks include i am working towards this promp because it ties into my goal and because i need to work on reading all the instructions and understanding all the steps and what it is asking me. i will complete this goal by re reading all my recipes before cooking or baking any products.
