How do you think you have grown as a learner since the beginning of this unit?

I think I have grown as a learner because Im more willing and comfortable asking questions. Also, I dont always understand the meaning behind why we are doing blog posts, but this unit has helped me since we have done a few blog posts. It has helped me in the way with getting a little bit better at phrasing things and going more in depth with what Im saying and I can use this skill as a learner in all my classes.

What topic this unit has been most interesting to you? Explain.

The most interesting topic has been(at least in my opinion)is that I didnt always realize that there are people in the world less fortanute than others. I mean I knew that this was true, but I never really got to see a visual of it. This made me sad but also makes more even more thankful for everything I DO have.

Think about our school values.

What has this unit made you wonder? This unit has made me wonder aside from skin color, why are people so mean to Native Americans? What did they ever do to us?

How has this unit made you feel empathy? It has made me feel emapthy as I mentioned above because I realized how many people are less fortunate than others. I feel bad for these people and want to help them or at least change other people’s views.

How has this unit strengthened your feeling of Tikkun Olam(making the world a better place)? This unit has strengthened my feeling of Tikkun Olam because it makes me want to help all these people in whatever way to possible to make our world a better place.

What can we (your teachers) change to make this unit better in the future? 

I think you guys did a great job, maybe just if possible give us a little more time to work on projects and maybe a little more guidance on what you are expecting from us and what that looks like.
