1. Reflect on your successes from the first half term of the year. What things have you done well in terms of taking care of your wellness and academic growth?
Looking to the past, I couldn’t believe that I have already finished my first and a half month of my grade 11 and I felt really proud of myself. I have been worried about IB during the summer but I think I am doing ok so far, probably it is because the busiest time haven’t come yet. I do think there is a academic growth this year because I started to worry about my grades and all the academic performance, and I have been put this worries into the power of putting efforts. Because I have a goal to achieve in subjects, I started to preview and review of my Biology classes and I started to work harder before the exams. I can see the differences on me comparing to last year. Even though there are more pressures and anxious on me now but I think I have transferred them well into the impetus of going forward.
In the other way, because most of the subjects I chose this year is what I really loved and enjoyed, I always have a good mood in school.
2. There is always room for improvement in everything that we do. In the second half of the term what actions will you take to improve your wellness and academic growth?
Even though I had a nice experience in school this year, I think I slept too late in the evening and that has influenced my performance in school to some extent. In the second half of the term, I would ask my mom to suervise me to sleep earlier so I can be more energetic and have a better mood in school.
3. What have you learned about yourself in PSE?
I think I have learned a lot about myself in PSE. Whenever we need to reflect ourselves weather on the four directions or the mood board, I always thought I learned myself more. From the known to me but not to others activity, in order to do the tasks, I noticed a lot of my own habits that I didn’t realize in the past. Such as the bad direction-sense and the bad tying skills I own. From the mohair window, I also learned that I am a person that focus on caring in a group. I used to thought I can’t really support in a group as I am always transparent in group discussions or group works, but now I realized that I have my own values that I always take care of other people’s feelings because I am a person that can emphasize extremely easily and I want everyone can have a good mood during the time. I would sacrifice myself in the sake of the group but would confide to friends after that. I hate to be like that but seems like I can’t control it.
