 Self-Reflection

 

I am an active listener and can respond to simple, direct questions.

 

I always participate in class and try to answer questions with the best of my abilities. I use the information that I remember to form sentences and respond to questions. I take notes and follow directions in class. When Signora Durand asked questions, I would usually understand, and I would use my notes to help me create a response.

 

 

I can recount simple experiences and activities and tell something I learned.

 

             While learning the story, I take notes and participate actively in class discussions. This helps me to retain information and complete sentences and answer questions. I can write basic stories following the structures learnt in class. I can present information retained by asking and answering questions. I work with other people and ask questions to my peers. I communicate to the best of my ability using the Italian I know.
