I can advocate for myself and my ideas. I show evidence of this in book club meetings. I proudly share my ideas and opinions. I also listen to others to help me get new ideas or to build on their ideas. Another time I showed evidence of this was in the Natural Resources project. I made sure my ideas were heard so I could contribute to my group. I also spoke up for other people if I thought their ideas were important. My last example of this is at the carpet. I share my ideas based on knowledge I have, I ask questions to extend my knowledge, and I build on other peoples ideas if I think they’re worthy of furthering the conversation. I still think that I can improve myself by comparing options more often instead of jumping to conclusions when I’m in a hurry.
