Arts and Crafts Core Competency Self-Assessment

Collaboration and Creative Thinking Skills

Paper Quilling

I worked on my communication competency by working with the people around me, sharing our ideas and supplies. I also helped my friend with her paper quilling because she was having some trouble getting started. Next time I would make my flowers bigger because I really like the look and I would also improve on my time management. For my creative thinking I got creative with the flowers. I made up my own design not looking up any ideas. I’m really proud of the yellow and pink flower because I thought of the design myself. This is my favourite project so far. I love how it turned out and will be doing this in the future for gifts to friends and family

Science 10 Core Competency Self-Assessment

Collaboration through The Unknown Acid and Bases Lab

While doing the Unknown Acid and Bases Lab we had to work with a partner. We had to communicate and listen to each others ideas. We helped each other when needed and shared different tasks. If I got to do this lab agian I would want to work with even more acids and bases. We worked fast and efficiently by doing two things at once Ex: Cleaning the tweezers while the other partner gets more litmus paper.

My Utopian City

Re-Town 

Community 

We value community in our town, as to show we have made a community center for citizens to gather and socialize. We also have plenty of flied space for outdoor community events. 

Environment 

We have a large un-touched forest next to our town for animals in the area to live and for the citizens to breath clean and fresh air. Another thing that we have added is lots of flowers. We made sure to have animals on a farm so, the citizens have a sustainable food source along with the vegetable garden we have. This provides all the food for the town, so they do not have to rely on other places for food.  

Safety 

We felt that safety was an important value for us while making our city. We wanted to make sure that it was a safe place for the citizens to live. To assure the towns safety we have installed a gate around to perimeter of the town. And in case of accidents, we have a hospital. 

Friendship 

We have multiple community gardens and ponds for our citizens. Where they can hang out and work together while gardening and fishing. Creating strong, long lasting friendships in our town. We also have a large fire pit for the citizens to enjoy. 

Education 

In our town we value education, to support that we have a school for all the children to attend so we can have a continuously evolving community. 

Colours and symbols: 

We have many flowers to symbolize happiness while also helping the environment. The community center is yellow to symbolize the sun and happiness and the warmth of the community. 

Communication Reflection

For our project we did it on Minecraft. Luckily, we both were already familiar with the program which made it easier for the both of us. We worked on our design mostly at home and communicated and shared our ideas thought massaging and in person. We did a great job on including both of our ideas and it wasn’t just one sided. I mostly worked on the values while my partner worked on the design but we both did everything. We didn’t waste any time getting to work and we both did our fair share. When one of us got tired of doing a task we switched. By doing this we could add our own touches to everything. I really like the final product of our city. I like how bright and colourful our city is. The only thing that I would change is making the buildings a bit bigger.
