My Grade 9 Year

My grade 9 year was definitely full of ups and downs, but it was a great experience. Some words that described my year are fun, crazy, different, hard, and challenging. This year I also learned that you shouldn’t get behind on your work too much because if you do, it will all just spiral out of control and therefore, have a huge impact on your final grade.

A Useful Educational Video

The reason I chose this video is because it was from my 1st semester social studies class. It was one of the movies/videos we watched in class, but the reason that this one is more significant to me is because it was the one video that made me actually understand the importance of socials, and it therefore helped me improve my final grade at the end of semester 1.

A Useful Educational Website

https://www.office.com

The reason I chose this link is because the Office website has helped me through a bunch of projects and assignments that I have/had. The fact that all the applications are there on one website is very helpful. The actual reason I chose this link though is because of the fact that without it, I probably wouldn’t even be passing any classes this and last semester.

A Useful Educational Image

The reason I chose this as the educational image is because this was a project I did for my science class, and it was an assignment that really helped me in that first semester, as I got a really high grade on it. So that’s why I chose to share this image. I got a really good grade on it and overall, I am really proud of it.

An Inspirational Quote

The reason I picked this quote is because of what the quote is saying. Basically, what the quote is saying is that if you fail on one or two things, don’t let it bring you down completely. Everyone makes mistakes, don’t let it hurt you.

“Never let the fear of striking out stop you from playing the game.” —Babe Ruth.

My Movie

My Movie

Plot, Character, Setting and Mood

I chose the plot points by reading the book, looking at some key words, and figuring out some very very key points.

I figured out the setting because it is the concentration camp, which is mainly where the story is based. The setting is significant to the story because it is where all of the events happened, where everything went down.

The reason I chose this music is because it represents how sad the book is. The way it represesnts mood is because it is a sad book, so a sad mood would go with it.

Core Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen in PowerPoint’s, Word docs, Excel spreadsheets, and anything that is electronic.

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus, I take a quick rest, do some breathing excercises, and try to refocus myself on the current situation.

In discussions and conversations, I help to build and extend understanding by going into more detail on the topic, and staying on the sunject, not going and branching off to different subjects that don’t make any sense with the conversation.

Reflection Questions- Can Violence Be Justified During a Revolution?

A) How did the use of AI assist you in developing this project 

It helped me tremendously because it was able to tell me the websites that it was taking infromation from, and write 3-4 seperate paragraphs on it, 1 for each website.

B) How did you ensure that the work you created was still your own, rather than just a product of the AI 

By changing it into my own words (changing wording around, getting rid of sentences that just sounded like it was generated by AI, etc.)

C) Did you agree with the position you had to argue? Why or why not? 

Yes because I like to argue about why things should happen rather than why they shouldn’t happen.

Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicate clearly and purposefully can be seen in: making a PowerPoint presentation, using stuff like perplexity.ai, or really anything that involves technology, that’s how I can communicate clearly.

When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know well, I: talk to them, ask them if they are fine with collaborating with me or other people, and just overall, make them feel fine to talk in a group.
