Volleyball!
Factors that contribute to the difference in taste, color, and texture among apples are: environmental factors (hot, cold, wet, dry) and genetic factors (genes of the parent apples).
Asexual and sexual reproduction effects the growth and development of apple because asexual reproduction means that the offspring will be exactly the same as the parent apple, a clone. While sexual reproduction means that the offspring will be a mix of both the parent apple’s genes.
In this unit, I learned about water polo. While playing, I learned about how the game worked and about how to input our swimming skills to playing. I learned that you can only use one hand, which was hard. I worked through this challenge by trying different ways to catch the ball, with my hands on the bottom or just grabbing it, turns out, its easier to catch it with my hand on the bottom and then turning it to the top. This unit was a very interesting experience that I would never have tried if it wasn’t in PE.
Evidence of Organization:
My science notebook is a great learning tool, it is well organized, and includes clear information I have learned.
Evidence of Active Learner Habits:
From last October to now, I have improved on turning in assignments on time and being more aware of my time and the amount of time I have to do any of my homework or classwork. Something I grew on is applying feedback because the assignment “L2 – Resources and Consumption (Module 2, Required)assignment Due” I got a 2 after a resubmitted.
Evidence of Growth in Science Skills:
The standard I choose to reflect on is Standard 6: Obtaining, Evaluating, and Communicating Information, for the Glasgow Weather Project, I was able to collect information and research more efficiently. During the first semester, the Animal Species Project, even though it was a group effort, the research I did felt sort of like parts and pieces, not a whole well done research document, this time, I decided to write down my research on my notebook: which was more complete, and I felt like I really remembered the information I learned and the facts I shared during my presentation felt like something I knew a lot about.
In this unit, we played badminton: something I feel proud of is having better ball feeling, before this unit started, Pinn Yi took me to play badminton, and she convinced me to play too!!!! Now I go to badminton class with Pinn Yi all the time! Although during the badminton unit and now, I have only played for 3 classes outside of school, but I already went to a badminton comp and I got fifth, guess how many people was in the comp… Even though this was after the badminton unit, it was very fun and it connected me better with my badminton friends, who also taught me a lot about badminton vocabulary, unlike volleyball, which is my main sport, a tip in volleyball is called a net. I hope I can continue to love and play badminton!
A strength I have is that I almost always resubmit my work to get a higher score and I work on parts of pieces I struggle with.
Some areas of growth I need to become better at is to make sure I always bring my stuff to class and to spend more time practicing my instrument. My action plan is to work on some music I have at home and aim for higher scores instead of just going for a meeting. I extended my learning by joining ASA Jazz band, where I learned that I need to practice keeping a cool head on stange and be chill instead of dying and crashing out.
My Vision Board
Three things from my Vision Board:
My goals this semester are:
Transdisciplinary Transfer Goals (TTG)
The TTG I want to reflect on thought this year is skillful communicators.
During this project, we chose the piece “My Heart Will Go On” from the “Titanic”, this was not an easy choice, it took us ages to find a piece for the both of us, but in the end we chose this. Because of this project I began to practice a lot more which helped me realize that could actually play ok, but this also made me realize that I get really stressed when I go on stage. Whenever I need to play a solo or a duet with people watching, it is like I can’t breathe air anymore. So I am not deciding to practice more. I think I didn’t really like to play, but now I understand how good it feels to practice with yourself and play well. I swear to MYSELF I WILL PRACTICE AND MAKE LISA PROUD. Although I sort of messed up, but I will get better and make a difference. To my future self: PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE.
Active Learner Habits
Describe three strengths you bring to math class.
One strength I bring to math class is I am well prepared with materials to class.
Another strength I bring is I work well with everyone, so I even if I am paired with someone I never worked together before, I can still cooperate well and I am also really good at being creative and finding different solutions.
A third strength I bring is asking questions when I don’t understand something.
Area of Growth
Identify one Active Learner habit you want to improve during second semester.
One habit I want to improve this semester is to make sure I am responsible and remember to do all my work on time.
This is an area of growth for me because is to organize my notebook better so I am able to use it to its full potential.
Plan for Growth
Explain how you will work on improving this habit.
I will work on this habit by finding a better organization schedule.
One specific action I will take is to make a table of contents for all my notebooks.
Math Notation and Communication
The first image is the first few classes and the second one is recent, this shows improvement because I labeled my papers so I know what I am opening, or if I am looking for something. I think I have not really improved that much in organization, although maybe in the future I would like to label the dates and pages so I am about to find things and notes easier.
Understanding Key Concepts
These are both from the sticker project, although they are not my full project. I strength this shows is how I am able to make accurate drawings including math concepts and make a simple idea come to life. Something I need to grow on is to maybe include the L4 standards better (I did the L4 but I’m not sure if I did something wrong or something)
Overall my work shows that I have grown in this semester, although some improvements still need to be done.
I really like badminton, it’s a great sport and I am even starting a badminton class with my friend (Pinn Yi). In this unit, I learned about backhand and forehand serving, I realized that backhand serving is actually not that hard. I also learned how to cooperate with my team when we are playing (for some reason I usually prefer to play singles) I think I can still improve on communication with my team during plays (sometimes I am not really focused). Overall I think this as a great unit and was very fun.
This is my story: Nancy Noodle began with 100 RMB in her pocket. For one week, she earned 10 RMB per day walking Sir Barks-a-Lot, a pug with more attitude than your math teacher on a Monday morning. But then Nancy decided work was interfering with her phone-scrolling time, so her boss, the terrifying Mrs. Grumbleton, slashed her pay to a pathetic 5 RMB per day for the next week. After Nancy’s laziness reached legendary levels (Sir Barks-a-Lot actually posted a selfie from her phone), Mrs. Grumbleton FIRED HER! Nancy then blew through almost all her cash in just 1 and a half days, leaving her with only 2 RMB to her name (spent 201 RMB in 1 and a half days). Desperate, she bought a lottery ticket the next day with her last 2 RMB and won 500 RMB!
Describe your story and what real-life situation it modeled?
This story is very relatable, many people have jobs and many people have been fired, it is a experience nearly everyone will have to go through in their lives. In my case this story idea came from a story I read. It was a story called The lottery. It was a dystopian story about a creepy lottery basically, but this led me to bring up the idea “lottery” which is how the story ends. Instead of going down the hill into dystopian we decided to make it a happy ending. Basically our story modeled a person who went through luck and unluck (as we all do) but in the end got a good ending.
What part of your project are you most proud of? Why?
I am most proud of my graph, because it took a while to find a good scale and sizable piece of paper.
What was the hardest part of creating your piecewise function?
The hardest part of thinking of a good story, even though we have a story, it wasn’t exactly interesting (as so to say) so this part was the hardest and we did not completely do it either.
If you could revise one part of this project, what would you improve and how?
I would of made a better more engaging story, maybe adding some fictional properties.
What did this project help you understand better about piecewise functions?
This project sort of gave me a clearer idea of what piecewise functions are and how word problems related to it will maybe look like.
