As soon as I heard of this, I was excited and keen on giving them the perfect farewell! I decided to challenge myself and enrolled in the dance committee.<\/p>\n<p>Learning outcomes that were achieved in this long-term activity were:<\/p>\n<p>LO 1: Identify your own strength and develop areas of growth.<\/p>\n<p>I realized that my strength lied in working with a group. I was surrounded by people who uplifted and motivated me to perform my best. The area of growth I needed to work upon was learning the dance steps so that I could perform gracefully on the day of the farewell.<\/p>\n<p>LO2: Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process.<\/p>\n<p>I learned and enjoyed dancing more than I thought I would. As we started practicing, I realized the biggest challenge for me was learning the dance steps. I overcame this by coming to school early every day for two weeks. By the end of our practice sessions, I was through with the dance steps and felt confident. Moreover, I felt more confident in my skin.<\/p>\n<p>LO5: Demonstrate the skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively.<\/p>\n<p>I was working in a group which consisted of 8-9 members. A lot of times, we did not agree while making decisions about the dance steps however, we ensured that we were respectful of others&#8217; opinion and did not make them feel inferior. At the end of it, we had grown closer and worked in a manner that brought out the best in every member of the group.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, this was a great experience and I know I wouldn&#8217;t have been able to do this without the support of my wonderful team members. This activity catered to open-minded and communicator as learner profiles. I was open-minded and took the time to consider others&#8217; perspective and finally, include them in key decision making. I was able to communicate effectively with my team members and put up a good show as a result.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4352\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.32.25-AM-300x167.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"555\" height=\"309\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.32.25-AM-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.32.25-AM.png 581w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4353\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.33.03-AM-300x214.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"472\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.33.03-AM-300x214.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.33.03-AM.png 567w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4354\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.33.10-AM-300x135.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.33.10-AM-300x135.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2020.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Screenshot-2019-07-23-at-9.33.10-AM.png 641w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grade 11 students were given the opportunity to organize a memorable farewell for grade 12 students.
