Student Work & Reflection

Destiny M.

The goal was to create a poem of my favorite food or snack.

I learned from this assignment that when you are having a difficult time with something and don’t know what to say or put, try your best, think your hardest and be as creative as possible. I was definitely having trouble finding out what to put for my mint chocolate chip milkshake poem but I tried my hardest and made a poem with my best effort as possible.

I have learned that my teacher is very understanding. As we have gone through this school year, one thing that I have noticed about Mrs.Lucero is that whenever I wasn’t able to finish an assignment or when I was having issues with the homework or zoom, she was very understanding and helpful. Even when I had covid and I wasn’t able to complete the assignment, she was very understanding and let me know that it was ok.

The goal was to tell about myself and tell my story and how I feel as a person. I learned that I am very organized and mature, but very hard on myself.

[Our schools shared values and beliefs were connected to my work because] I stayed honest, and never gave up and fought through all the times I wanted to give up.

[I struggled with] being truthful. It’s hard to be truthful to some teachers because you don't feel as if you can trust them. I overcame this challenge by learning more about Mrs. Lucero as a person and felt the need as I can trust her.

The goal of this project was to create a monster by sewing and making it from scratch. I learned new sewing techniques and it's not hard to sew and it's really fun actually.

Marissa R.

My goal was to be a good baker. And all the time we cooked and baked, I did good. My sister’s said that it tastes good.

Mrs. Lucero teaches me how to take off all extra flour because then you would have too much flour in whatever you are making

Sophia T.

The goal was to reach the end of the journey.

I learned that it’s important to keep in mind the supplies[money] you have, and make sure you have extras in case of an emergency.

The goal for me was to make a nice pillowcase that I would be proud of donating! Though I forgot to bring it with me when I exchanged chrome books, I still hope that I am still able to donate it.

I learned how to use the sewing machine and that making things by ourselves wasn’t that hard. It turned out pretty nice even though it was a little lopsided for the white strip.

Jacky H

My goal is to try my best?!

I learned what kind of different foods and what they do.

I discovered that If you work hard, you can succeed, also I found what I like and dislike.

[by watching my teacher]I learned how to make different foods, also taught myself how to cook.
