Mita portfolio 2014 By: Allan Preciado 8th Grade Advisory Teacher: Ms. West My name is Allan Preciado I am in 8th grade, my Advisory Teacher is Ms. West and these are my favorite activities.
This is a modified version of Oregon Country Elah evidence • Throughout the year I have had various ELAH projects but If I had to pick one to talk about it would be the Oregon Country project I think I did the best on that one and put a lot of effort into it. This was of a group project. • It was pretty easy and it was separated into different subtopics to make it easier for us. We studied about the Oregon Trail and about Lewis and Clark’s expedition to Alaska. The project took around 2 or three weeks and we ended up making a poster board and overall I think we did excellent.
This is the actual version of Oregon Country Elah reflection • This project required memorization, responsibility, and to be a proofreading expert. In this project we divided 5 subtopics for and one of us had to do double duty. • In this assignment I learned to collaborate better and to proofread better. I liked the pictures we drew and it worked just as we planned it in the plan out. I liked our final product since we drew a perfect replica of Oregon country. What I didn’t like was the handwriting I did that day.
Math evidence • There was this one assignment we had in math class called “rigid transformations” which we have done recently. It was pretty fun you had to move a key to the keyhole to unlock a door. But, there were some obstacles in your way and did not let you pass. To avoid those obstacles you simply had to slide, rotate, or flip your key to the right position. • I learned the basics of sliding, rotating, and flipping shapes. I liked the star part it was the easiest part of the assignments. I would’ve done the wall part differently because I couldn’t finish it.
Math reflection • This project was an individual project and was mandatory to be completed on the very first day. The work was rigid transformations and it was just to learn how to rotate shapes. It was done for my math class (credits shown in slide 10) • This was connected to math since it had to do with geometry translations. It didn’t require much the instructions were the answer basically and didn’t require that much skills the only skills it required was to be able to follow instructions. I liked the product I turned in since I was able to finish the assignment and got a star saying congratulations.
Tech Evidence • The RPG Maker projects were the best and they were pretty easy with all the tutorials. I completed them in the first 15-20 minutes in class but everybody finished in different rates. All you had to do was make simple parts to make the starting of a full version of a game with any character. • This was individual work which required tech skills. They took usually 3 days to complete usually
Tech reflection • Skills I have acquired is the ability to create events, know where you can and can’t move, and how to overpower your character. I definitely also learned how to actually just play the game and make one. While completing the project I had to make a character make an enemy, make a story, and make a cool town. • The process took very long about 1-2 months to finish all of the tutorials together not just one which took about 2-3 days. But, those months were fun gaming months. I liked how I put almost every single power from the game into my character to make him very powerful. I wouldn’t change that at all.
Science evidence • So far in science we haven’t had projects but we had very fun labs like, making pancakes, making ice cream, playing with cars, and making a balloon overflow with baking soda. My favorite was playing with the cars we had to use our phones to record how fast the car went throughout a few stops in our track. • I learned how to calculate speed that day. Speed=Distance/Time. The car we picked was pretty bizarre it was a Lucky Charm car. This was a group project and it was mandatory for us to complete the project in one day it was nothing.
Science reflection • There was only one skill we’ve acquired on that project was learning how to calculate Speed=Distance/Time which was pretty difficult the first 3 weeks we learned it but with effort I mastered it and can tell if the question is a speed=distance/time, distance formula, time formula, or acceleration formula all mastered. • The bridge we had fell every time the race car passed by him and we had to restart our timers every time but we had to do it seriously at the end. There wouldn’t be anything that I would’ve changed it was all good. I liked how I got one of the most accurate times.
