Gr 9 Living Museum - REFLECTION!!!!

If 1 is the lowest & 10 is the highest, what grade would you give yourself for:

1) the information in your speech: 8/10

2) the information in your A3 posters: 7/10

3) the way you did your speech (your presentation): 9/10

4) the way your A3 posters looked (its presentation):7/10

5) the amount you enjoyed yourself during that 1 hour of presenting:

12/10

Explain your reasons for the grades you gave yourself above for:

1) The information in your speech:

I gave myself a 8 out of 10 in the speech category because I think I wrote a

pretty good speech. This was my 4th draft of the speech. I think my introduction

was good and so was my main events and interesting story but I think I did not

write so well for the problems or benefits in my characters life.

2) The information in your A3 posters:

I don’t think I did a very good job on the posters because the only information I

had was VERY BASIC. My poster met the minimum requirements but was not

very interesting. I did add a cool fact on the poster that I had my own T.V. show

but that’s the only thing.

3) The way you did your speech (your presentation):

I think I did great in my presentation because many people came and

listened to me and they left my exhibition with a little bit more

knowledge and a smile. I also noticed that they weren’t bored throughout

the speech because I kept asking questions throughout and was

interacting with them.

4) the way your A3 posters looked (its presentation):

I think my posters were not bad looking but the way they were presented on

the black cardboard was not great. I did add fishes and bubbles to make it look

like it were undersea but it weren’t that attractive as it could have been. I think

I should have spent more time on the posters because from my point of view I

kind of had a very average looking poster and the reason for this is me not

trying too hard and the fact that I’m not a very artsy person.

5) The amount you enjoyed yourself during that 1 hour of presenting:

During that 1 hour, I had a great time. Many people came and listened to me…

from tiny kids to the head of the school. They all listened, asked questions and

held their breathes along with me. I had a lot of fun telling them about the life

of Jacques Cousteau and from what I saw they had a lot of fun learning about

the person too. I don’t think they remembered everything that I said when they

left but I surely think that they remembered JACQUES COUSTEAU INVENTED

THE AQUALUNG.

If you could change anything about what YOU did, what would it be? WHY?

I think the only change that I would make is to make my poster more

attractive looking. My poster was the only dull thing in my exhibition

because I was very active and the listeners were very active so the next

time I do this I will make more posters interesting and attractive so it isn’t

left out.

If you could change anything about what ANYONE ELSE DID, what would it

be? WHY?

I can’t really judge anyone else’s performance but I think the people who wore

just black should have tried harder and tried to get a costume.

In general, your living museum experience was………..

It was something new that I did and I enjoyed it a lot. I agree it required a lot of

work, a lot of preparation and a lot of organization from Ms. DeGreef but I

guess in the end it all paid off because of the fabulous performance that

everyone put on.

Thank you for your honest reflection!
