Core Competencies reflection

Strengths

I am good at vocabulary building for example when we are starting a new story I am able to learn the vocabulary easily by practicing the quizlets that Signora Durand posts on one note. I am also good at writing proficiency for example during our class writes I am able to remember the vocabulary and sentences structures causing me to be able to write a completed story. I can interactively communicate with other students for example when we are doing our skits for the stories I am able to help plan them effectively with my group members.

Examples and Evidence of My Strengths

I know that I am good at these things because I study hard for the tests and I practice my lines for the skits, when I study for these things I am able to remember the information I learn and retain it when it is time to. I find that studying using the quizlets helps because you can actively study with flashcards instead of reading over the same thing over and over until I remember it all. This helps me be successful with whatever I may be doing because I am able to memorize the structures.

My Goals

I can get better at pronouncing certain words, because sometimes when I am speaking in Italian I end up mispronouncing some words. I could also improve at memorizing all my lines in the skits and eventually be able to go and present the skit without looking at the cue card. Another goal I have is for me to get better at grammar and not make errors when I’m writing or speaking in Italian.

My Plan to Reach My Goals

To reach my goals I will practice my pronunciation of words I am unsure how to say, and if I need help knowing how to pronounce something, I can ask for help. To remember my lines for the skits I can practice them more so that I can remember them when it’s time to present. If I ever am unsure about my grammar or pronunciation I can ask Signora Durand about it.

Second story cycle and in-class write

Second Story Cycle and In-Class Write 

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

Every day at the question of the day I can answer the question successful. During the story biscotti blu I took part when being asked questions about what was happening in the story and was able to answer them in full sentences. I pay attention to the story when it is being told and can participate when I’m asked to. The more that I speak Italian, the more I am easily able to remember the structures. 

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

When I am preforming a skit, I am able to memorize the structures better because I am saying them aloud opposed to writing them. I can recall information from the past storis and skits in order to complete the in class writes. When listening to the stories Signora Durand askes questions and that helps me remember information better.
