My highlight of this assignment was finally getting our routine on lock. I used to have a hard time with my group's routine because it was so confusing, so I would always mess up, or I's go the wrong way, do the wrong move, and be a little on some moves. I was just surprised that I finally got our routine down. I was really happy, so I practiced at home and I got better at it!! But then we changed our routine a little, so I was like, "Oh... I just got our other routine down, and now I have to change it???" LOL, I was just really confused the first time we changed it because I used to follow the other routine wee had, and I's get lost.. But then I finally got that routine down, so I was happy about that too. The lowlight of this assignment was finding that only 9 people danced to our routine. I was pretty bummed because I knew that if we didn't get a lot of people, we'd get the C.. And I can't afford to get a C because if I get a C, it'll bring my grade down lower, and then I'd have a bad grade, and then I wouldn't get to go to the college I really want to go to, and I wouldn't be happy. I just didn't like that some of the friends I asked to come and help because its a grade, didn't show up. I wasn't happy. I was more than sad, I was disappointed because at that time, I asked one of the best person in my life that I knew to come and help me because it was a grade, and he didn't even show up. He stood in the crowd watching me embarrass myself. I was disappointed in him. I asked him a billion times, he said "I'll try" but then on the day of zumba, I go out there and dance, I see him in the crowds laughing.
GLO #1: [Self directed learner] I took the time to practice at home so that I would better understand the moves and memorize the routine.
GLO #2: [Community contributor] Our group made sure that everyone understood what was going on and made sure that everyone was in sync.
GLO #3: [Complex thinker] Our whole group wrote down the steps of the routine so that we would know what we moves we had and how far we were on the moves.
GLO #4: [Quality producer] I didn't care if I looked like an idiot dancing in front of my group and everyone else, as long as I did my best and participated in the event and in the practices.
GLO #5: [Effective communicator] My whole group made sure that were good with the routine and if we didn't understand some of the moves, we wouldn't be shy to say we didn't, we'd just say that we weren't understanding some of the moves.
GLO #6: [Effective and ethical user of technology] I took a picture of my written paragraph for the zumba routine belowww ⤵ And we also used the computers and speakers and a microphone during the assignment.

Grades for this assignment were supposed to be handed out to the group that got the most people to participate in their routine. I'm sure that period 5 got the A, I wish I was there to see their dance, but I had the opt out stuff to do -.- And period 1 got the B, and period 3 got the C. I'm not being, but we had the least amount of people to participate, so we have to get the C. In my opinion, I think grades should've been based on how well our group worked together as a team, and how well our group was in sync. It's all based upon the crowd to give us our grade, and that's not really fair because people these days are too lazy to participate in things like zumba, so they won't do it unless they want to be embarrassed. I just think that grades should go to the people that did the best performance and on how well they worked together.
