1. JUSTIFY HOW THIS PROJECT/ACTIVITY/ASSIGNMENT MEETS THE STANDARD, USING EVIDENCE FROM THE STANDARD ITSELF TO DEMONSTRATE YOUR MASTERY AND/OR UNDERSTANDING.
The standard for this assignment was W.8.3 which was to write a story (narrative) to create a real or imagined experience or events using effective writing techniques. There are many ways this assignment relates to the standard. First, this assignment meets the standard because I wrote a narrative to myself about an imagined experience for my future (on the back of the poster). I also used techniques like descriptive details of my future and I structured my essay in a chronological/well structured order. This shows I have mastered/understood the standard for this assignment
2. ELABORATE ON AT LEAST 1 SKILL AND/OR STRENGTH YOU FEEL YOU GAINED FROM COMPLETING THIS PROJECT. (COLORING AND OR DRAWING ARE NOT SKILLS TO WRITE ABOUT - ELABORATE ON LIFE SKILLS YOU CAN TAKE OUT OF THIS PROJECT)
There are many different skills I have gained from completing this assignment. One of the strengths I have gained from this assignment is that I got to plan ahead and think for the future. This project required me to think about what I wanted to do in the future and how I want to live in the future. Because of the vision board I was able to think about what occupation I wanted to have, where I want to live, what recreational activities I want to do and etc. This assignment helped me plan my future and helped me have a clear goal on what I want to be.
3. UPON REFLECTING ON YOUR WORK/SCORE, WHAT IS ONE AREA OF WORK YOU COULD HAVE DONE BETTER ON? HOW WILL IMPROVING IN THIS AREA BENEFIT FUTURE WORK/PROJECTS? (COLORING AND OR DRAWING ARE NOT SKILLS TO WRITE ABOUT - RESEARCH SKILLS, TIME MANAGEMENT, ETC…)
There are many places I could have improved on for this assignment. One place is the narrative writing I had to write about my future. The essay wasn't very clear and it had grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors. I also could have wrote more than the minimum expectation which was 2 paragraphs. By writing more I could have included more detail about my future. Improving in this area will help me benefit for future assignments because I would have more writing tasks assigned to me in the future and more practice will help me be better at writing
4. HOW WILL YOU PRESENTLY APPLY THE CONTENT AND SKILLS YOU LEARNED FROM THIS ASSIGNMENT IN THE REAL WORLD? (OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM, PARTICULARLY IN TODAY’S SOCIETY) MAKE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE CONTENT AND YOUR LIFE.
I will apply the contents and skills I learned from this assignment in the real world in many different ways. One way is that I would have a path to take for the future. This vision board helped me plan what I want to major in and also what career I want to have. The skill of planning ahead is useful for all subjects at school because it will help me not procrasinate and have good time management skills. This is how I can apply the skills I gained from this assignment in the real world.
