Core Competency Reflection

In discussions and conversations, I help to build and extend understanding by writing all of our ideas down and then revisiting them later for review and revision. By filtering out ideas it can allow for a quicker more effective project and provides an outline to follow through the making of the project.

I show that I value feedback from others in my group by asking them how I can fix my mistake or area of improvement and ensure they have my thanks. By accepting and applying feedback it shows appreciation and commitment to a good group mark.

In the future I hope to not let my emotions affect how I work and my fellow group members. I need to respectfully advocate for my needs by calming myself down before I come to class. Or let my group members know how I am feeling ahead of time.

English 12 Writing: Self- Reflection

Curricular Response

In this writing sample I practiced my pruning skills. My paragraph started with 100 more words! I am proud of that outcome as I haven’t had much experience with pruning. Other strengths included string evidence from the text and acceptable reasoning behind it. In future writes I hope work on my transitions and to vary my text. I use the same words often and the writing can seem repetitive.

Core Competency Self Reflection

I enjoy writing when I am able to organize my thoughts and ideas before hand. I find this useful as it gives me a guide to build off of while writing. I find it makes it easier to see a common theme on one piece of paper rather than an essay worth of unorganized writing. When writing the thing that takes the most time for me is relating evidence from the text. Although I usually seem to figure it out, I often take the most time in this part of writing. An enjoyable part of writing for me is when I am writing about something I am either interested in or want to learn about. It gives me extra drive to write! Outside of English class I journal however it is in an informal tone.

Pre Calculus 12 Conics Project

Here is my self portrait I drew of myself using demos. I used quadratic and linear functions swell as circles, ellipses and hyperbolas. While creating I had a reference photo to follow along. while looking at the reference photo I used circles to round some hard to curve shapes like the glasses! In the top corners of the glasses you can see how I rounded the corners with circles. For longer continuous smooth and curvy parts I used parabolas. Changing my stretch factor accordingly using the sliders. For example my chin and shoulders and hair. I wanted to use many quadratic functions in my hair so i could get somewhat of texture. I used lots of shorter linear functions to get smaller details.

Extending Explanation

I challenged myself during this project by putting my head on a tilt. Meaning no line is symmetrical. I wasn’t able to just reflect my eye or my ear. This took extra time and trial and error.
