1. Communication

• • I listen to others well and speak when it is my turn. During science when we’d work on labs, I would listen to my partner’s thoughts, as well as contribute my own thoughts after she was done.
  • I can find information when I need or want it and present it clearly. I had a food slideshow project on Zucchini and I needed to research all about the food. I used a bunch of websites to find information and used it in my presentation.
  • I participate in group activities and do my share to achieve our goals. I had a recent English group project where all my group members and I contributed our ideas and thoughts to each other. We all aimed for proficient/extending, and succeded in our goal as a group.
  • I can share my ideas and try to connect them with others’ ideas. My last final project for foods was to make a tea party. I shared my output and ideas and made sure it was something everyone was happy with.

2. Thinking

• • I can establish goals and connect my learning to my goals, experiences and efforts. During the labs I had in foods class, I made goals for me and my team to get everything done within the time period. I used the teachings our teacher taught us and put it into the cooking labs to succefully do what I learned.
  • I get ideas from other people’s ideas, my interests or my environment. Before a unit test I had in science, my friend gave me a great idea on a efficient way to study. I used her study method and exceeded a good  mark on the test. 

 

3. Personal and Social

• • I can show others what I am good at and what I can be better at.  When comparing my overall science marks and my overall english marks, there’s a a big gap between which subjuct I have a harder time on and the subject that I find more easier. I Don’t do as well in my english than I do in my science.
  • I can celebrate my work and successes and ask for help when needed.  In science, when I did pretty good in my chemisty test, I wen’t out to eat with my family to celebrate my good test result.
  • I set goals and work towards reaching them.  In science, I set a goal to do good in my biology test. I studied hard and practiceed till I was ready for the test.
  • I know and protect basic rights that everyone should have. 

GOAL SETTING

• My goal for semester two is to ask more clarifying questions during class and understand what I’m learning omre in depth. I would like to improve on participating more in class and having a more active voice when it comes to learning better.

 

Family and Friends:

1. Spending more quality time:

Spending more time together allows me to strengthen my relationship and create many special memories together.

2.  Strengthen our bond:

I would like to strengthen my bond because it brings me closer and fills my life with more love, laughter and happiness. It’s always wonderful to have people who truly know and understand me by my side. Family is forever, it’s a kind of relationship I want to nurture

3. To be more compassionate and loving:

Being more compassionate and loving creates a positive vibe and brings joy to everyone around me

Education

1. Turning homework in on time:

Turning in homework ontime is important because it helps me stay organized, manage my workload easily, and maintain good grades

2. Receiving good marks for homework, projects, and tests:

It makes life easier when trying to get scholarships and collage admissions. It helps me stay positive and motivates me to keep striving for excellence

3. Challenging myself academically:

This is super benefical becuase it pushes me to reach my full potential. It helps me develope critical thinking and problem solving.

Health

1. Getting more physically active:

Staying active keeps my mind, body and soul healthy. In doing so, it promotes a longer and healthy lifespan

2. Eating healthier:

It is really important to fuel my body with nutritious foods. Not only do I have to look after my exterior part of my body, but looking after my interior part of my body is even more important

3. Relaxing and allowing myself to  prioritize skincare:

Having a good skin routine makes me feel more confident.

Favourite quote

“The idea of keeping yesterday’s problem yesterday’s but learning from it and becoming a better person”

 – Matthew Sturniolo 

 It reminds me not to dwell on past mistakes or problems, but to acknowledge them, learn from them, and use those experiences to grow and improve myself.

One of my favourite pieces by Ludovico Einaudi, called Experience. I liked the way he added his own emotions into this piece
