CAS Objectives:
- Planned and initiated activities- This objective was completed by the work I was required to do in order to plan and initiate the poster making correctly, which was very interesting and helpful for me.
- Worked collaboratively with others- I was required to work along with my team, in order to obtain this objective and be successful in it. It was a great experience as we worked better when we were united in comparison to when we were working individually.
The completion of the posters happened today, and even though the posters looked very neat, it was still lacking a lot detailed and profound information on the topic demonstrated on the paper. This was the end of the Poster Making activity, and of my CAS for the first year of the ib program, in which I believe that I was able to accomplish all the goals that were set during the year, and am ready to do what is required of me next year to be successful. From this specific activity I learned how to be more organized, and how teamwork and organization are the keys to success! Some mistakes were made throughout the activities, but that were corrected as time passed, which could be considered very effective. I believe that the three main characteristics of the CAS program, which are, action, service, and creativity were met throughout this first year.
CAS Objectives:
- Planned and initiated activities- This was accomplished by planning the different components of the poster that we were making. While also initiating it by looking for places to take pictures of.
- Worked collaboratively with others- I accomplished this by working with the other members of the group in order to be successful in the activity chose for the term.
Due to the fact that I was sick last week I could not attend the CAS activity on tuesday, but when I came back today the two posters were already being prepared, and in the middle of the process, but they still required my help. The posters were really advanced in comparison to when I last saw them, as they had written most of the information down with Sharpies, and had several ideas for a drawing of a building in the middle of the poster.
We were still missing pictures, so I decided to go around the construction obtaining photographs with my cellphone and continuing to obtain facts about it. Unfortunately I already erased all the pictures taken, so I will not be able to show it in this blog post.

Today was our second day of CAS Poster Making in which I was able to realize that a lot of work had to be done in a small amount of time as the end of the year was getting closer, along with the deadline for the delivery of the posters. Therefore I went to gather the needed material in order to begin to prepare the posters in order to show the school the development of the new building. It was very good for me, as I was able to improve my organizations skills, and collaborate with the other two members of the group in order to begin the process of creating the posters. There is still a lot to be completed, but I believe that we will be able to finish the posters before the deadline given by the coordinator, which would be extraordinary.
