Student Reflections:

1. Give three reasons why you would like this job (be specific):

a) I like it because there are no bosses.
b) No one has to work all the time doing this job, and there is no paperwork.
c) People look out for things when needed.

2. Give three reasons why you would not like this job (be specific):

a) If I only work at home, then I would not get any money.
b) I would have to clean parts of my house that I would never like to do.
c) That job is harder than I thought it would be.

3. Is this job for you? Why or why not?

No, I would like a different job so that I can earn a lot of money. I don’t know what job I want, but I want it to be a good job.

4. Explain the value of the TYKTW experience in relation to your ideas about your post-secondary (after high school) plans (education? training? travel? work?).

The experience of TYKTW shows that whoever works at home could sometimes think it can be really hard. I don’t think this job will help me in anyway for my future career, I never thought what my mom does is a real job, but I appreciate the fact that she does many things and sometimes there is a lot of pressure. I would not want to be a home maker but I it sounds interesting that you do something like that.

 

A Midsummer Nights dream Act 4 scene 1

Core competences

Communication:

I think I tried my best to know what I am saying to the crowd. I have tried my best to
memorize my script in Midsummer night dream. I tried to sound like the characters I was
playing in the play so the viewers will like the play. I was nervous to speak in front of people,
I was worried I would mess up one of my lines, but the play turned out great and we were all
proud of ourselves.

Creative and critical thinking:

For creative thinking, I tried to find some props that were good for me and my group. Some
of my props in the film were really good like my crown and shirt, but some I think needed
improvement like the wand, besides that I think I was really creative. For critical thinking, my
group agreed we need to practice with each other over the weekends. I was trying to have
my lines and props at the right place and time. I tried to stay serious and focused during
practices and the play.

Positive personal and cultural identity:

My personal strengths and abilities are having different voices in the play when I am plying
four different characters. Another one of my strengths and abilities is that I know how to
sound cheerful or confused at the right time at the play.

Social and Personal responsibilities:

My social responsibilities is that I should always help out my group when needed. I also
need to find the right props and background for my group. My personal responsibilities is
that I need to know my lines and to bring my props when needed.
