My Inquiry About Time Travel

Inquiry Reflection:

– I stayed up till 1am, getting all the animations done the night before. I added more slides since my first presentation.

– I actually had fun presenting my inquiry.

– I’m glad that at least three people found the animations helpful. As I’ve mentioned before, pictures help me understand things.

– Time travel is hard to explain without drawing diagrams, so my first idea was to have a whiteboard behind me, and I draw things in real time. Then I figured out how to draw and animate on powerpoint, so I used that instead. I think that was a good idea because then I wouldn’t have to worry about thinking what I’m drawing next.

– I forgot to bring my Time-Turner necklace and my mini telescope, but that’s ok. I had the TARDIS and Flux Capacitor models.

– While presenting, I tried to not speak quickly, because I usually talk very fast when I’m talking about something I’m passionate about.

Core Competencies:

Communication – Making the animations to explain
Creativity – The topic of time travel.

Social Dynamics In Tabletop Role Playing Games 11 Edublog

The Class:

I 3D printed a lizard dude. 2 to be more accurate. Also a dragon. We tried printing 2 different dragons, but the second one didn’t go so well and was hard to get out of the supports. Luckily the wings were intact when I got them out. So I super-glued the wings from the second dragon onto the first. Then we painted the figures with small brushes. This was a fun class, though wasw actually helpful because we worked on working with other people in random groups. The End.

English First Peoples 11 Reflection

My Artifact

This is a picture of the Extended Metaphor Assignment. For this assignment, we were to find a piece of nature that is a metaphor of life.

Curricular Competencies Reflection

For this assignment we learned how in some First Nations texts, they use nature to represent different struggles and victories through life. Going up a steep hill is difficult, representing the struggle to get past an obstacle. But there is the flat bit at the top of the hill, once we’ve gotten past the obstacle, for us to relax and go back to enjoying life.

Core Competencies Reflection

Thinking – During this assignment, I had to think outside the box in order to find some creative metaphors for a river representing life.
