For the steps of the documentary we first decided to find our own topic, and then we did research, our research had to include citations and all the source that we had needed to me trustable. We found pictures and videos and then we cited it, and then we started to create our script and our storyboard and then we start creating our own video. Our video need to be matching with our voice, and our voices needed to be enhanced, but since my voice is like that i could not do anything.
One thing I did well in our documentary is that I used good pictures and good information from my script, and i feel like the quality of the pictures are also not that bad. The amount of pictures that we had were also acceptable, even though they were not matching our voice.
One thing I still need to learn and do better about is that I need to learn how to make my voice in my video more clear and not sound like an old granpa and also to make my words and my pictures be matching to each other.
The processes of this work project is that, designed in the sketchbook about what i wanted to draw, but after I started I found out that my design might not really fit on the page because it is kind of a long one, so I changed my idea to a kind of newyork style kind of spray paint. I wrote the first letter of my own name in it.
Some artful techniques that i used were using spary paint, that i have never tried before, and using newspaper to cover part of my notebook and then painting on it and also combinging different colors to show to value of each, and using newspaper to cause some height difference
Flag football in 7th grade was more than just a sport for me—it taught me how to work with others and handle both wins and mistakes. At first, I was nervous because I didn’t know how fast the game would move or how well I would do under pressure. Learning the rules and getting used to running routes helped me feel more confident, and every practice made a difference. I also learned that flag football isn’t only about having strong speed or throwing hard, it’s about reading what’s happening and making smart choices. When I got open or caught a pass, I felt proud, but when I missed, I reminded myself that improvement takes time. The best part was playing as a team. Even when we were down, teammates encouraged each other and communicated, and that helped us keep going. By the end of the season, I realized I was stronger, not just in my skills, but in my attitude. Flag football helped me grow as a teammate, and it gave me a fun way to build confidence I can use in other classes and sports.
How did you demonstrate persistence while creating your clay artworks? Use specific ceramic vocabulary (for example: slab, coil, pinch pot, knead, wedge, score, slip, blend, sculpt, glaze.)‘
I used slab and coil and wedge to make my artwork look more square and make it thicker so it will not break that easy while creating the artwork.
In what ways did your skills grow between your first clay artwork (the tile relief) and your final piece? Use specific ceramic vocabulary.
The first one i had more design on it and it looks more 3D with the roses popping out of the peice and also some extending wings added to make it look more interesting.
How does your final clay piece connect to your identity? (Return to your planning for a reminder of your intentions.) What do you plan to do with your clay artwork?
The last clay peice connects that to me because soccer is involved in this piece the club that my familys likes a loto was in the symbols to make it conenct back to me .
I understand how to calculate the the value of X in a equation, i also learned how to make calculate volumes and surface areas. Most importantly i learned how to manage my time well so i could catch up on the work that i am missing.
N: What new information did you learn in this unit?
I learned about new vocabs like volume, diameter, radius
I: What was interesting in this unit?
selling notes was very interesting because i had to manage my own time to make sure that i could catch up and also the time you spent of doing the notes was also very fun.
T: What was tricky for you in this unit?
I felt like understanding the vocabs and remembering the formulas of different shapes so that i won’t mix the formulas up. I feel like using my time wisely and not getting off task was also a challenge that i need to work on to be greater in the future.
•Considering our exploration of apples throughout the unit, what factors do you believe contribute to the differences in taste, color and texture among various apple varieties? The temperature the amount of water in the soil and the air quality can change the quality of the fruit. Through of the unit we learned how changing the amount of water in the soil can let the fruit grow bigger and more red, while on the other hand not enough water can let it to be small and dry in the inside.
Which learning experience was the most impactful or memorable foryou as a learner?
Stations Activities (Environmental Factors, Plant Structures, and Animal Behavior Stations- including the flower dissection) this is good because i can use it as a testing and like a rotation test before the test really starts
Watching Videos (Pollination Video, Franken Fruit Video, Tree of
40) This is good because when i am watching any kind of videos i can take notes and i can still review after the video ended so i can remember these things during my test.
Why does one apple taste different from another?
Apples taste different from each other because all of the apple have a different gene line and set-up so it is impossible for all of the apples to taste exactly the same.
Something to improve on in future units
Something that i can improve on in future units is that i could spread the work with my partner more evenly and i could spend more time on the research so the information i have in my project is more high quality and it is more clear to read and easier to understand.
we learned how to walk faster and work with other people in the group, we also learned how to follow the rhythms of the music. But this was still a challenge because that i need to because you need to let people follow your rhythm so that you won’t mess up the beat.
