In a quarter review blog please respond to this . . .
Please describe your efforts towards participation and leadership. Did you take care to clean well? Mention if you were attentive at the beginning of class every day.
This quarter the the beginners are finally starting to make things on the wheel more and have been asking me for help on how to make lids, bowls, ect. and I have only been more than happy to help. I also have been going to town on my own projects perfecting them all and making a variety of useful items the compliment my home. I did take care of all the equipment because we share it between 4 different classes and without clean gear I cannot create or think in such a dirty environment. So I take care to clean everything at the end of the period. At the beginning of the period I am usually very attentive, as I care about what you have to say Mrs. Heideman! :)
How often do you use the pass? Are you on task every day and all period? How social are you versus how much work do you do? How closely do you meet assignment deadlines?
During class I think I have only ever used the pass twice this whole quarter. I have class right after lunch so I do not need to leave class during this period. I typically am on task everyday and all period, and compared to the freshman I am totally on task because I contribute to a positive classroom environment whereas they do not with all their party gossip. I balance the social with my work because I only have a couple good friends in the class so I am usually doing my own thing anyways. Because I am a second advanced student I don't really have deadlines... so I don't really think about meeting the assignment deadlines, but I work diligently and get all my stuff done as quickly as I can, and I never waste class time.
