Creativity:
For creativity, I have improved and expanded my creativity over the past two years. The two services I have participated in are Deaf and Hearing Exchange, and Community Film. Both services challenged me creatively, I had to learn a new language for Deaf and Hearing Exchange, and I had to learn how to edit movies for Community Film and make my own movie. Making my own movie has allowed me to the third learning, outcome, of doing my own project. These two creativities have also helped me accomplish the second learning outcome, of undertaking new skills and as well the fifth learning outcome, especially in Community Film because we were a small group and everyone had to do their parts in order to succeed.
Action:
Over the past two years, I have joined 3 Saisa’s in 3 different sports, those being football, volleyball and basketball. Before this, I had done Saisa football from 8th grade, but I had never done volleyball nor basketball. So, doing football in DP has demonstrated that I have accomplished the first learning outcome, of identifying my strengths and improving them. I have also learned new skills in basketball and volleyball, proving I have accomplished the second and fifth learning outcome. Also, since I have joined the Saisa football team from 8th grade to 11th grade, I think that this showed perseverance and shows I have accomplished the fourth learning outcome.
Service:
Over the past two years, and previously in the MYP, I have been changing services at every opportunity. I wanted to and I enjoyed trying new service to help me grow as a person, to learn new skills, new ways to help the world, and new ways to communicate with different people. In DP years, I have done Community Film and Deaf and Hearing Exchange, and in both, I felt like I have helped the community. These two services have somewhat help me accomplish the 6th and 7th learning outcome, of global awareness and the decisions I take.
Overall, in my 2 DP years, I am happy with the after-school activities that I have chosen as I enjoyed each of them, and I am happy with what I have been able to learn and accomplish.
