Core Competencies

Student Self-Reflection with Core Competencies

For the final report,  K-9 students are required to complete a self-reflection on only one of the core competencies. We have compiled a variety of templates to will help you and your students with their self reflections.

Key considerations: 

  • The self reflection can take on a wide variety of forms.
  • Focus on “I can” statements, and what the student is able to do
  • Where possible, include specific evidence and examples.
  • The documents and templates need to be copied to your google drive so you can make your own edits.

“Core competencies’ development is not about reducing the process to only completing a template or checking off a rubric; it is a metacognitive process facilitated and supported by teacher and peer dialogue, an opportunity for reflection on learning activities, and a chance to focus on evidence of growth over time.”   – BCTF Education Change Bulletin Feb 2017
