Blog 10: EQ

1. I reviewed the rule of three for writing an EQ. 
2. 
- A. Is in current format because it is not a yes or no question and allows for vas opinion and research. 
- B. Is not a great EQ because it is a bit confusing for me to understand what the question is really asking. 
-C. I feel as if this EQ is well formatted because it's easy to understand and an open question 
- D.this EQ is not well formatted because it seems like a straight forward question in a way where not a lot of research could be done. 
3. In what way does the fashion industry most influence society?

Blog 9: Lesson One Reflection

1. I believe I did well and had my audience attention.
What I'm most proud of for lesson one was getting my point across erm though I was nervous. 
2. I believe I desirve a 'P' because although I was to nervous to really get into my presentation myself I did have my rough draft and final on time, I made all the points required and ,like I have mentioned earlier, when I look around the class I noticed that my peers were engaged in my presentation. 
3. What worked was that I believe what I'm trying to convey in my presentation which allows me to express myself and make my point. 
4. If I had a time machine I would try to calm myself down so that I could have more fun with my subject while I present.

CC1. I have learned that you can answer to the prompt how ever you like as long as you back it up and provide proof that you understand.
2. I feel very confident about my understandment of the CPR. 
3. I feel confident I can be placed in college English because I passed the test last year and becuase I feel that I have a good grasp on how to write essays aside from a few things I need to work on. 
4. Maybe to be able to look at the rule break as we right just to see exactly what's expect and then next time without and see the change in writing from this first time and the third time. 
5. No. 
6. 40 of 45  on reading skills

Blog 7: Individual Component 1 Approval

1. What I plan to do for my 30 hours is design one or two dresses and go through the process of what I've been learning during my mentorship on my own. I'm going to watch "how to" videos on sewing, designing, and cutting to be able to create these dresses to the best of my abilities at home. 
For example: 
-Inspiration for design 
-selecting fabric/material 
-mathematically figuring out how to do measurements to my personal fitting and use them to create the perfect dress. 
-cutting the set pieces 
-sewing together the pieces 
-making adjustments if needed. 
2. To show evidence of the completion I will be making a log for myself as well as photographing my process. 
3. I feel that this will help me out everything I've learned to test from my mentorship and quite possible help me come up with a definite essential question. 

End of September

Today I finished my mentorship. It was a great experience with a lot of sweet amazing people. Swat fame is full of talented people with a great sense of humor they have taught me the ropes of fashion design and everything that happens behind the scenes. I Aleppo was taught how to storm,  cut,  and sew styles together. I will never forget the experience I had here and the connection I shared with the people here; hopefully I'm able to come back fort my second individual component.

Blog 5: Mentorship Reflection

Finding my mentorship was fairly easy, it was convincing the industry to allow me to get in that was a little more difficult. My mom already works at the fashion industry where I am doing my hours so she talked to her bosses for me. They weren't sure if it was to a good idea to allow someone as young as I to volunteer there but in the end they decided to allow me to in a different department as my mom as long as I have them a letter from my school to prove I need those hours. 

The most important article I've researched so fat would be "6 managing styles and when best to use them" by leaders in heels because it was interesting to know that there are different ways to managing and it answered my working essential question directly.

Blog 2: Summer Mentorship

1. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jD_nZpcRDIyPPDbZJw-gnqE6OIGjZ-_WsfTl-UC0bqI/edit

2. My contact name and number of where i volunteered is Mr. Laski and his number (949)280-6361.

3. Some questions that came to mind during the 10 hoursare:
- What most effects the player?
-How do coaches prepare for the next practice?
-How are records recorded?

4. The most important thing I gained from this experience is learning how to be able to bring a group of people together with the game goal because in the real word you're always going to need to work with someone you don't like, seeing them taught me that there's a way to work together to reach the same goal.

5. My senior project is going to be on the affects that community teen centers bring on teens. A friend helped me come up with the idea when he saw me struggling to find a topic that I could give my all in.
