Reflection:

My experiences working on this were mostly frustrating. For example after all of the research that me and my partner had done we had found out that we hadn’t gathered enough evidence for the video meaning that it was to short. So then we had to do more research in order to make it longer but then we met the requirements and it sounded good so in the end it worked out.

The path that our group took for researching was to individually research different aspects of our topics and then narrowing them down and answering the questions. We found most of our information on Gale in Context: Canada.

Obstacles we faced while recording were, as stated previously, the first recording we did wasn’t long enough. We realized that 6 minutes is actually a long time.

Some ways that I communicated my learning. One of them being the audio recording I feel it is a great way to share my findings with others another would be a written response. I actually find a written response to be better though, I feel as though it conveys more meaning and is easier to understand.

 

Core Competencies

Critical Thinking

I feel as though I properly demonstrate Critical Thinking in the climate in Canada assignment because I needed to identify certain things about the biome such as the Atmosphere, Geosphere, Hydrosphere and Biosphere. It was also reacquired that I draw and identify biotic and abiotic things in the biome such as rocks, trees, bushes, animals, ground. That is how I think I demonstrated Critical Thinking.

Edible DNA Lab

How does this model show:

What DNA is: DNA is a self replicating organism that exists in almost every living thing. It is the main component of chromosomes and is the carrier of genetic information.

What DNA does: It contains all the instructions need for and animal to develop, survive and reproduce. To do this sequences that must be converted into proteins.

How easily DNA can copy itself: It starts with the separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand and the assembly of the new DNA segment

What further questions do I have after building this

What answers can I find to answer my questions: My question is why is DNA a double helix structure

Answer: To maximize the efficiency of base-pair packing

Core competencies and goal

Posted on by under Science 9, Self-Assessment

Critical thinking

I feel as though I have grown in my critical thinking for example, in the elements of the periodic table unit, we had a test on the periodic table including Bohr models and questions about chemicals and how they were arranged on the table along with identifying physical and chemical changes I feel as though I demonstrated critical thinking all through out that unit. Another thing I think that accurately demonstrates critical thinking is the energy sway and how we had to acquire information and then identify a problem and voice your concerns about said problem. 

My Goal

My goal is to be more engaged in class and try to complete my homework faster so that I don’t get super stressed.
