Small but Mighty Reflection🧬

This reflection consist of two main things we learned and created in science. Firstly we created an article about a myth from the Covid-19 vaccine, and we had to disprove it using evidence. My partner and I gathered evidence from trusted sources and then we put it in, but there was a problem. None of us knew how to use Canva to design, so after trial and error we finished it and it looked good, I think. Secondly we had to create a kids health poster. Creating it was fine but we had incorporate children’s drawings of germs and well that took a while for me. The drawings that had been submitted I absoulotely loved and attempted to add almost every single one to my poster and well it was too much. I got other people such as peers and teachers to give me advice and in the end using that helped me create my finished project. Overall I enjoyed everything we did, we got to work with things hands on, which engaged me more in what we were learning because we weren’t just sitting at our desks and watching videos all day. We got to gather little bacteria for our pre-tri dishes, we got to draw our own immune system characters and everything else I’ve told you. 

This is my poster I created:

Travelogue Reflection

This project was something different, usually we learn something in a week or two but this one took around more than 3 weeks. Partly due to our teacher being away, new subsitutes filled her position everyday, but we still had a project to do and a deadline. In the end we had to create something called a travelogue and it had to be based off of a European explorer. I picked Jacques Cartier. Throughout this project there was a tremendous amount of time put into gathering information for the final project. For the travelogue you already had all the parts of the puzzle, you just needed to assemble it, you needed to create essentially a book about your character. During the process it was trial and error, you had to match up your storyline with images you’d made and to be honest I wasn’t a fan of making the images. Either I created things I included for Jacques in my storyline such as a compass, celestial navigation, a map, art that represented his character and in the end a collage. I got to display my story on Jacques in my own way with information and things I gathered and created. Overall I was quite pleased with the ending result of the project and I would recommend it to other people.
