During this exhibition process I demonstrated and improved many of the Learner Profile traits. The 3 that I think that I demonstrated the best are knowledgeable, inquirers and principled.
How I demonstrated knowledgeable as I researched and learned a lot of information about my topic. Since I learned a lot about this I expanded my knowledge base of my topic. I demonstrated inquirers because I started my researched by a lot of questions so I inquired a lot about my topic. This exhibition is based on questions that us students had. I was principled because I was honest about my notes and I was citing my sources. Plagiarism is something I didn’t do. Being honest is something that is mandatory in this exhibition. I’m improving the learner profiles thinkers, reflective, knowledgeable and balanced.

Today we had a Zoom meeting about how our exhibition is going to work. The students, teacher, parents, etc will start at our class exhibition website where there will be an opening video of our homeroom teacher. Next, there will be our collaborative piece video that they can watch. After that, everyone from our class would’ve already made sort of a teaser video on what are our topics are about and stuff like that. Then the audience will choose whose exhibition page that they’re going to go to. They will look at our website and on our home page there will be our presentation, art component, writing component, etc. Afterwards, there will be a Q&A session on Zoom that the audience can choose to go to but if not then there will be a Padlet on if they want to ask questions regarding our topic.
Other than that today was also about updating our knowledge page on our blog and making sure that everything is up to date. Yesterday we didn’t have to write a blog post because we had to do a lot of stuff regarding our art and writing component so our teacher thought that we should have more time to do our art and writing so we didn’t write a blog post yesterday.
Today was the due date for our art and writing component. So today I submitted it and I think I did pretty well with both my painting and my short story. I will probably get feedback soon. Today I also gave my recording of me singing and dancing to my music teacher. The way our exhibition is going to work is all our art component, math component, writing component, etc will be on our blogs and there will sort of be a Q&A on Zoom. Today for our writing component we had to revise and edit a friend’s writing component. I edited one of my friends writing piece. She’s also doing a short story. She also gave feedback on my writing component so I did get some feedback.
Today we had a Zoom meeting but it was about our new unit. (We are still doing our exhibition) Even though it’s not related to exhibition I will still talk about it. The new unit is about inventions and innovations. I think that this would be a fun unit because since we are at home we will have more things to work with. Today our day was not very much exhibition related... Today we had a class Zoom meeting about our class collaborative piece for our exhibition presentation. We are going to do a video where everyone in the class will sing a song and some people will dance and play instruments. I chose to dance (obviously). Our teacher also sent us a video as an example on what it’ll be like. Today I also started painting my art component and I’ve finished painting the person. Today I also got some feedback on my writing component and I also told my mentor in our mentor meeting today that I will send her my writing component draft too. Today we choreographed more of our dance too! This week was a shorter week than usual because tomorrow (Friday) is Good Friday so it’s a holiday, though I think it wouldn’t feel like a holiday.
I think the highlights of the week were: -We chose a new read-a-loud -We had a cooking class today! The thing I am most proud of is that I completed my writing component draft.\ I feel like I accompished a lot of my goals such as finish sketching my art component, turning in my writing component draft on time, etc. I think that I got to achieve those goals because I was also well organized and I very good at time management . I don’t get easily distracted and I’m very good at multitasking. The 3 main goals that I have for next week are: -To finish my writing component final copy -To finish my art component -To finish half of the dance Today I had a lot of time to do my writing component draft so I finished it and probably tomorrow I will send it to the Fiction Writers group for them to sort of help me edit my writing to make it better.
Today was a pretty slow day because this day was mostly about continuing stuff that are due soon such as the art component and writing component. I spent more time on each thing I did so my reflection is probably shorter than usual... I continued my art component and since tomorrow we have an art class I will have more time to do my sketch and I think I will be done tomorrow. That is pretty much it for exhibition stuff today and today I didn’t have dance practice so we will maybe do it tomorrow. Bye! Today our class had a Zoom meeting about the key points when we’re drafting our writing component. We have to skip a line after every row, make it similar to our final draft which is due next week and convert it to a PDF when posting it to Seesaw. Those key points are the ones related to my writing type which is realistic fiction.
I also continued sketching my art component. I think by tomorrow or Wednesday I will be finished. For my pledge I saw that I received 25 responses which means at least 50 people did this action! I also had my mentor meeting today where we discussed on that I should get the people who already did my action to sort of do a reflection about that hour or more without electricity! Something unrelated to exhibition that happened today was that we were choosing a new read-a-loud the finalists are Front Desk by Kelly Yang and The Truth as Told by Mason Buttle by Leslie Connor. IToday I finished planing my writing component so I will do my rough draft next week. Today I also started sketching my art component and I think my next week I can start painting. Today we also had a virtual assembly where they also promoted my action. Click here to join my action!
This week I feel that I accomplished a lot because I: -Finished my math component -Finished my writing component plan -Done a lot of my sketching -Doing my action Today I started the day with the math activity. We did stuff about single and double line graphs. It was not as hard as the one yesterday but it was still a little hard. After that I did the read-a-loud and I really want to know what’s next!
At 10 o’clock our class had a Zoom meeting and we discussed about the plan for our writing component. I have started making it and it is turning out well. I really wanted to go a little slow because it’s due tomorrow so I just wanted to have to spread it out the 2 days. A little tip I have to make writing a plan more enjoyable is to make it colorful like I have and decorating the page is something that draws in my attention. I also had my student teacher conference with my homeroom teacher. We discussed on how I’m going to present my research and I decided to do a TED talk. We also discussed how I can do a TED talk if the exhibition is going to be online. Today I sent the poster for my action and the pledge “form” (which is on survey monkey). Tomorrow our teacher will promote in our online assembly. Tomorrow I will also put the link here so my blog readers can also see it (but the students in my school will probably already get it). Anyone who receives the information tomorrow I highly encourage you to do the pledge. I will put the picture of the poster on the photos page on this blog too! |
