Through out the class, we have learnt how to hold small conversations in Spanish, we have learnt different adjectives, words, vocabulary, pronunciation and the culture. When making this conversation, i found it was limited on what we could talk about within it. This is because we only learnt a small fraction of the language. Although, even though me and my partner faced challenges to over come when making this finial conversation, it was fun and enjoyable. Within our conversation, me and my partner tried to add in details about ourselves.
Personal And Social-
During this project, me and my partner connected outside of school through social media, although we made sure to use our class time to our advantage. We made sure the work was evenly done, and we each had our own sections of it to work on.
Taking clear notes, is very important to me because it keeps me organized and helps me manage my work making it easy to find. When I take clear notes I can look back on it makes it easier to take in the information and easier to understand, not only, but I don’t waste time trying to find a topic as all my notes are categorized.
Reflection
I used my note taking skills in science class and socials class the most, I spent time writing short formed notes on each topic with the topic underlined making it easy to find. Because I didn’t write to much about each topic it made it easier to understand and remember. I did this with topics such as World War One/two, chemistry, biology, physic and climate change.
I can ask and respond to questions to be an active, supportive listener-
I am able to ask questions, for the novel study project where I had to make a map and write the importance of each section of the map I had to ask many questions. One of the questions, were asking for the criteria on how to do each section of this project. I want to improve with when i ask questions that I am writing down everything that answered the question.
I am able to ask questions when I need help, with math, English, etc. I am able to take the steps it takes to understand my work. I am able to learn well when asking for help, I ask for help when I’m un sure of how to do something, or need guidance with something. In English i ask many questions about what the criteria may be for certain projects. In the project I’m doing now on my novel study my job is to go to my teacher and ask her for the criteria.
My communication skills with this project were good, me and my partner organized our work together. We both listened to one another’s ideas, and we managed our time so we would both have all our work done before the due date. Creative thinking was important in this project, we both expanded on one another’s ideas to make the project better. We both helped one another if any of us were stuck and didn’t know what to do, and we gave one another ideas on what to do. For personal social skills, we both talk to one another, and made sure we were both doing the topics that we were best at.
Social media and online platforms are very useful, but also very harmful. Many people face bullying, hate comments, and group mentality, which is why online safety is important. Being safe online consist of keeping your information off line, and keeping your accounts private. When online you have to remember that what you put out there is hard to remove. Before you post you should think, will it be ok if my parents see this, if my teacher sees this, if my future boss sees this? You should always be thinking of this, and what you are posting, if it could effect others? If the answer is yes to these questions, you should think again about posting it or to post it to my eyes only. When your online, don’t talk to people you don’t know personally, as many people pretend to be someone they aren’t. not talking to strangers keeps one less person from finding out information about you. Being safe online is one of the biggest things right now, so be smart and think smart.
Personal/Social Competency Reflection
I know that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences, including the positives like, being able to promote a business, get support from online groups, or to even promote yourself. Although there are many negative things like, misleading information, fake news, or others bullying people online. So I adjust my actions to keep my accounts private, never post things about others, and research to see if the information I see is true.
My online support network is helpful to me because they can help you figure out problems and answer questions you may have.
I make digital ethical choices such as not lying about myself or others in order to be responsible and do the right thing.

Reflection On Collaboration And Conflict Resolution
Collaboration
Addressing Core Competencies:
· I recognize that there are different points-of-view, and I can disagree respectfully.
· I can work with others to achieve a common goal. I do my share.
Five of the most common to approaches to resolving conflicts are as follows:
1. Avoiding – Someone who uses a strategy of “avoiding” mostly tries to ignore or sidestep the conflict, hoping it will resolve itself or dissipate.
2. Accommodating – Using the strategy of “accommodating” to resolve conflict essentially involves taking steps to satisfy the other party’s concerns or demands at the expense of your own needs or desires.
3. Compromising – The strategy of “compromising” involves finding an acceptable resolution that will partly, but not entirely, satisfy the concerns of all parties involved.
4. Competing – Someone who uses the conflict resolution strategy of “competing” tries to satisfy their own desires at the expense of the other parties involved.
