Math 10 Core Competency

Core Competency

I recognize that listening contributes to my understanding in these ways. Listening to other’s opinions could help me figure out my mistakes. When I couldn’t find my mistake after doing a math question, I would ask my parents and they would help me by telling me how they would solve the problem and where I might have gone wrong. Their different perspectives on the problem often make me see things in a new way, which helps me learn and avoid repeating the same errors. In addition, listening to my teachers and classmates on how they would approach the question and solutions also help me expand my own thinking and problem-solving skills. In math class, I work with others to achieve a goal. When our teacher assigns us homework, I would work with my classmates and help each other out. After finishing the homework assigned, I can show a sense of accomplishment and joy. Since math isn’t something I dominate in, I feel proud that I finished it and understand the concepts that I’ve learned. I take pride in my work and myself.

CPR Reflection

My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

 1. What was something you learned that you didn’t know or consider before? 

Through this unit, I learned some new vocabulary including myocardial infarction, angina, and ventricular fibrillation. Something that I have never considered is that diet plays an important role in risks of heart diseases. I used to thought that heart diseases are normal to happen as you get older.

2. What is a key takeaway from the Theory or Practical CPR unit? 

A key takeaway would be to be calm, think carefully, and react quickly when you must start CPR on someone. It’s also important to remember that you have to push a depth of 5 cemtimeters when doing chest compressions.

3.How does this unit connect to the nutrition unit learned previously?  

Durning the nutrition unit, we explored different types of diets that are healthy. We also learned foods that were unhealthy and harmful. In this unit, we learned the consequenses when you eat too much of unhealthy foods. This includes increase risk of heart diseases like high bloood pressure, high blood cholestrol, obesity and diabetes.

Core Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicated clearly and purposefully can be seen when I’m practicing the CPR procedures. I demonstrated my ability to take control of the situation and ask for help from people around me when someone suffers a heart attack and becomes unconscious. Durning this unit, I also had to finish a package that has notes on everything that I have learned. When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I listen to music. When I worked on the package that I had to finish for the CPR unit, I listen to music. I could focus more quickly and be more efficient on finishing it. One area of CPR in which I’d like to spend more time learning would the the chest compressions. I start to feel tired after doing chest compression for 1 minute. I think it would be better if I had more time to practice on my chest compressions.
