Language Arts Artifacts
This link goes to the storyboard that my group and I made for our movie. We collaborated with AI and created a movie idea. I am really proud of this project since it took lots of work, and I enjoyed making it. You can see more if you scan the QR code with our writings and our movie poster.

Active Learner Improvment
Evidence of Active Learner Habits
Here is my active learner self-assessment
grades
highlighted=submitted late
The evidence demonstrates my growth in being an active learner. In semester one, I had many late assignments. But throughout the school year, I’ve improved a lot.
Math IM8 Artifacts
The artifact is my retake for the exponents quiz, which demonstrates my understanding of exponent rules and their application in simplifying expressions. While working on this artifact, I learned how to apply properties like the product of powers and power of a power, which are essential for solving more complex problems. I faced challenges in remembering the rules correctly, but I overcame them by practicing with additional problems and seeking help from my teacher. This retake shows my progress in math, as it reflects my improved grasp of exponents compared to my initial attempt. I chose this artifact for my portfolio because it highlights my dedication to understanding a challenging concept and represents my growth in math throughout the year.
Organization
*show notebook(s)*
My notebook shows my organization skills by keeping all my math notes neat and easy to find. I use headings, bullet points, and color coding to highlight important concepts. This helps me study better and track my progress in math. I chose this notebook because it reflects how I’ve improved in staying organized and prepared for class.
Specials: Design Tech
Empathize
Special: PE
I am really active in PE. In PE, I always meet the standards, and even exceed the standards. I think that I do well in PE because I always try my best and stay active throughout the entire class each day. In the swimming unit, even though I swim outside of school, I think that l improved a lot in water polo. I was able to enhance my techniques and collaborate well with my team mates so l was able to achieve a grade a little higher than a meeting.
French Artifacts
This is a spelling text that we do every two classes during French. I have improved since last year by only getting red and yellow stickers and this year by getting yellows and green.

The second artifact I chose for my portfolio is my project on “Les femmes dans la WWI.” This project shows how important women were during the war, from working in factories to helping as nurses. While working on it, I learned about their contributions and found it difficult to organize my research. I overcame this by working with classmates and getting help from my teacher. This project highlights my growth in understanding history and my commitment to learning about these important topics.
Skills Used:
-past tense conjugation
