Critical Reflection

 For this rotation we have learning about algebra, we are talking about different types of algebra. The 2-3 weeks of our rotation we have been doing some work on Mathletics into different level of algebra. Also we have been doing some geometry. We have been solving different problems online. We use Euclidia solve and to learn different angles and how to solve the problems.

We also talk about the rotation, reflections of an angle. We spend at least 3 weeks working on it and we did some activities around this topic. We did some group works and we solved a problem together. We have a chance to use a workbook for our learning, it is not that major because we just used it to copy the different shapes. 

For our last week on this rotation we have a project about the things that we have learn about for this rotation. We are doing this as a group and our topic is " Graphing" we choose this topic because it is easy and we are able to finish it quickly. We also made a formula to our topic. 

Our project:

This is the project that we made. Since we did it on my book I apologized if you can't see it clearly. Our project is showing a square using the dots in graphing. We have been working on our project for at least 4 lessons. We came up with this formula because our graphing is showing a square and since square have a equal sides we have to multiply it by one so we can have the same number.

Our Formula:

P = n x 1

Reflection:

For this rotation I really enjoyed this because before I was really confused about algebra and geometry. Also making the project help me more to able t understand it. We found it really hard to made the formula so we think that we did it wrong. But since were not sure we just try it because that's the only formula that we can think of. But I really like ti and I am looking forward to do it again.

Wananga

 Today did a activity that trying to test our trust to each other other. We have to get into pairs so we can do this successfully, me and my friend decided to be in a partner. For this challenge we decided in our pair who is the person A and person B, but it doesn't really matter because we are both doing something.This challenge is really interesting because we have different instruction that we need to do, we also don't know our partner's instruction. We just have to trust them and complete the challenge. 

I am the person A and my instruction is I will not let my partner to open my fist until she ask me to open it politely and with assertiveness. It didn't take longer that I expected because she figure out what does she need to do. Also I don't have any doubt about her because we have been friends for quite a long time now, so I trust her. Trusting your partner is the important thing that you need to do for this challenge.

I know that all of us have made an argument with someone, it can be our family our friends. In our pair we also shared the moments that we did somethings in aggressive way but after we are gonna think that we should have been more assertive that aggressive. The experience that I told to my partner is every time that my sister asking a favor to me, and instead of following her I getting annoyed and sometimes being aggressive towards her. 

As a class we also talked about the things that we can do when someone is being aggressive towards us or someone says somethings that make us upset. Smiling, Ignoring, and take a deep breaths are just some of those things that we can do in this situation. It is important that we know how to manage this kind of things. 

Photomontage

Last week we started our first topic for this semester. We are learning about photo montage. Our teacher gave us some images that we can use to make our own photo montage. Photo montage is a type of photography that you can do by putting the different images together. This is the first time that I did this and I am really happy because I get a chance to try this kind of things.
