The Movie

Plot, Character, Setting and mood

Explain how you figured out what your Avatar would look like.

I created the avatar the way I see her through the ways they’ve described her through the movie.

How did you choose the plot points?

I focused on the important parts of the movie and the parts that stood out to me.

Explain how you figured out the setting in your story. Why is the setting significant to the story?

So you get the idea and can picture the setting more with a picture that matches it.

Explain what the word mood means and how/why you picked the song that you picked?

I picked this song because it matched the energy the book gave me.

Core Competency Reflection

I respectfully advocate for my needs by… Taking my time and re thinking examples. I did this because I handed this in late I like to take my time and make sure everything is done.

An example of where I built upon someone else’s ideas is… I built on the authors idea of this book. For example when I was making the character I made it different then the way she really looked but I used the authors ideas of the way she described Dumplin.

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I… Take a break and then refresh my mind of what to do. I did this when I was making slides for this powerpoint. I got stuck on a few slides but I just took my time and took a break to re think what to put down.

Reflecting on My First Year

My Grade 9 Year

Beginning ninth grade may be both thrilling and intimidating. With new classes, teachers, and classmates, it’s a moment when you’re beginning again. I was a little anxious about making friends and fitting in, but then I realised that I’m not alone. It’s crucial to take the time to get to know your lecturers and fellow students, as well as to be receptive to new chances and experiences. It’s alright if you discover that you’re interested in different topics or extracurriculars now than you were in middle school. The ninth grade is a year of exploration and discovery, so it’s crucial to be open-minded and willing to try new things. You can succeed if you have a good outlook and are eager to learn.

Pt 4:

I think I worked well with my group. I contributed to my group by asking questions and they would try to help me. I would rate my ability to work with my group a 2 because it wasn’t perfect working with my group but it would be more difficult working alone.

Core Competency Reflections:

I can describe how to save and invest my money safetly, relates to this experience I will use this when I’m older and I need to know the best ways to make myself money and save.
