Show and Tell (June 3)

Show what you are doing to keep yourself moving forward. To keep moving forward I have decided to practice medication. I downloaded an app called insight timer which has a variety of mediation methods, interval bells and you are able to control the time. This app has helped me with my stress and helped me organize myself during online school. What did you do to work on your project? Each day for at least 5 min I practice meditation and this has effectively helped me accomplish some work for this project. For example, this week we found out that we are going back to school next week which is a big advantage for us because we have to continue working on our donation contest if it is approved. We are also planning and creating a card to get sponsors to donate to our project. As well, from the previous donations we are planning on giving them out to families. We are making donation packets that we know will help the family. But it is difficult for us to do this because we will have to select some families that really need it and other families may not get any because they don't need it as much. It is also hard to communicate with the families due to the COVID issue but we are trying to find a solution by getting their phone number and communicating through their. How are you adapting to the online school situation? What opportunities have been created for you and how are you embracing being at home instead of at school? What threats have come up? How are you dealing with them? What tactics are you taking to make sure that these do not bog you down and slow your progress? I have adapted to online school from the last trimester of 10th which has helped me make it earlier throughout this situation. I have also made a routine to help me adapt and to stay focused which makes me stay organized and get my work completed. I have created the opportunity to be more independent when working and learning because most of the work I complete is on my own. As well, I'm able to analyse my ideas and my thinking differently than at school. My organization and resovility skills have grown which Im now able to grow in those areas. And now I have adapted to mediation which is embedded throughout my work and my growth in those skills mentioned previously. Some threats I have come across are time management because I focus too much on one assignment and don't complete the other or I don't keep a balance with the things I need to work on. I have overcome this by working at least a little on every assignment so I don't have to rush through one last minute.
