After today’s session, I have learned many things that surprised me the most about myself. In class, we took an opinion survey in our Executive Functioning packet that focused on things to do with school and being a student. There were many points to rate ourselves on. For example, a couple of the issues were, ‘I like school work best when it makes me think hard’ or ‘I like school work best when I can do it perfectly without any mistakes.’ We were to give ourselves a score from one to six on how well the question described you. Then we added up the points according to what number score we gave ourselves and matched the result answer with the range the profile number falls into. We then read the section that applies to the result to see if the sentences matched the way we think and feel about our school work. The sentences that I read applied to me as a student but I did find out that I may have had a tendency to care more about my marks then the actual learning. Now I appreciate that learning for the sake of learning should be valued more. I have also realized that although some of my past marks weren’t as high as I would have liked, the more I enhance my intelligence by making mistakes and can still have fun while I’m learning! –Grade 7 Student
