Curricular Reflection

In this project, I have described my career and life goals, personal growth, and initial planning for my preferred career-life pathway. I have done this by picking a career and making a plan to get there. Planning this took lots of effort and time researching info about the career, as well as post-secondary institutions and programs. I also applied this to my current life by learning about things like course requirements and how to work toward my future right now. I also made a ‘plan B’ job incase things don’t work out with the main plan.

Core Competency Reflection

I demonstrated that I can understand and share information about a topic of interest in a clear organized way in this project by doing a PowerPoint presentation using pictures words, and a speech. I’ve also demonstrated that I deliberately learn things and that new ideas pop into my head by using websites like myBlueprint to discover what job I want to do as well as find alternative jobs to do. I can analyze evidence to make judgements and I have shown this by choosing what career to do. I had to weigh the options like salary, enjoyment, and difficulty of path to choose the career that fit me best. I have showed that I can tell the difference between fact and opinion by looking at the facts of how the job works and how to get there, as well as peoples opinions on the job and how it works. I considered all of these and how peoples opinions work with mine when considering what career to choose.

One goal I have for myself going forward is this I can statement:

I persevere with challenging tasks and take ownership of my goals and learning behavior.

In this project, I struggled with persevering and I procrastinated for much of the duration of the project. Moving forward, I would like to reduce time spent procrastinating and not working.

Physics Unit Core Competency Reflection

A picture of the assignment and data recorded

In the ‘Physics Fun’ lab, our whole group had an equal role. We took turns doing all the different roles and all played an equal part. I demonstrated the collaboration core competency during this lab. I communicated with my group members on what we should do next and how to do it and who fills what role. I can improve in the Critical & Reflective Thinking core competency. I could have improved because I rushed my calculations at the end and could easily have made mistakes from going too fast. I also didn’t check over my answers at the end to ensure they were correct.

English 10 Self Reflection

I am proud of my children’s book presentation that I did in English 10. We had to pick a children’s book about a social issue and analyze how it conveys its meaning through images and language. We also had to discuss how the issue is still relevant in today’s world. The book I chose was called Dark Cloud, by Anna Lazowski. I am proud of how I analyzed the details of the book and also the quality of my presentation and I think I did well.

In English 10, I learned how to analyze poetry. We had an entire unit dedicated to poetic devices, themes, and how to analyze them in poems. We looked at many poems and learned how to write a paragraph about a poem using proper style. We wrote paragraphs analyzing the poetic devices and themes present. At the end of the unit, we chose our own poem to write about, as well as doing research about the poet and discussing what the poem meant to us.

Semester Reflection

Social Studies 10: Reflection

This semester, I completed an independent inquiry project about Adolf Hitler and what factors led to his popularity. I collected information from various primary and non-primary sources and various sub-topics and I compiled them all into one final essay. I combined research on psychology, authoritarian ideology, and German history and life in the 1920s and 30s. I also practiced using research skills. One of the best pieces of evidence I used for this project was the official Nazi Party platform that I found on the Holocaust Encyclopedia, helping me learn the ideas Hitler stated to gain trust and political power. This topic is relevant in 2025 and it will always be relevant, as long as society is under threat from demagogues and people using their power for bad. Learning about Hitler can help us see the signs of another leader being a bad leader.

Core Competency Relection

I look for, develop, and weigh different perspectives and pieces of evidence, as demonstrated in my inquiry project where I had to compile information from various sources, considering each one in factors like accuracy and relevance, into one final essay providing a detailed write-up about the topic.

I can examine and evaluate to improve my own work; evidence of that is when I wrote my final essay for my inquiry project and had to spend much time reflecting and rewriting my project until it was a final product that I was proud of and could turn in.

I respectfully advocate for my needs by raising my hand and asking the teacher questions when I am unsure of what to do.

My Learning of CPR

CPR Reflection

I learned how to preform CPR and how to react to an emergency situation. My key takeaway is how important it is to stay calm in an emergency and how helpful it is to have a team of people with you. This connects to the nutrition unit learned previously as having good nutrition and diet is one of the major ways to reduce the risk of heart attacks or strokes.

Core Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicated clearly and purposefully can be seen when I was doing the practical CPR test and I had to pretend to communicate with a partner to assess the situation. Proper communication in this test was important as it represents a life or death situation and it’s important to know what is happening.

In this unit, I am proud of my accomplishment of learning proper CPR techniques. It means I will be able save someone’s life if ever necessary.

Learning CPR relates and is important to my life heavily. Learning CPR means I can preform CPR on anyone who needs it in an emergency and save their life.
