Reflections Term 3

My highlight for this term was the hockey tournament because we won and I only let three balls go into the goal. One of which hit my leg and was called a goal because if my leg wasn't there I would have gone in the goal. The reason this was my highlight was because it was so much fun and  I wasn't only the goaly but for two half games I went up and I scored five to six goals.

I am most proud of getting every single task for Lesley on time. The reason I am proud of this is because I was the only one to get every single task done on time along with Leni. I am also proud of this because I have spent so much of my spare to get all of the tasks done and I managed to finish all of the tasks.

Next term I would like to improve the amount of P.E because that is my favorite subject in school. The reason I want more P.E is because we only do it once a week with Merrick where we could be doing sports during the week along with the P.E rotation.

My big learning focus for next term will be my spelling because in the last two terms I got the exact same results in the test. The way I am going to improve my spelling by moving into Matt's spelling group and focusing more on the spelling rules for longer rather than just touching on them. This will help improve my spelling.

I would like us to focus slightly more on spelling but not to much. The spelling was good this term but maybe one more workshop a week.

My Student Conference went really well because I got through everything and my parents where really proud of everything I achieved this term. I got really good things out of the conference this term because I learn't all of my levels and I fund out that I need to work on my spelling.The thing that my parents got out of the conference was that they could see how well I was doing at school and what type of work I have been doing.

Disquiry Reflection Tuesday

The thing that I am most proud of in my Disquiry is  my videos because I put a lot of work into creating them and editing them. The reason I am most proud of this is because when we were editing our video Imovie got erased twice which made it hard to edit them video.

One of the problems in Disquiry that we had to overcome was when Imovie got wiped fully.  The way we overcame this was by doing the process again. In a way it was good that Imovie got erased because we made out video better each time and I found out how to fade the music.

One thing that I learned during Disquiry was How to play Badminton and the rules to==of the game. Before Disquiry I didn't know as much as I do now.

A good thing about our video was that people found it entertaining and they learned something. someone even thought that I was cool music. One thing that we need to work on for next time would be to make the speaking louder and the other thing would be to turn down the music at the end and at the start.

I think next term I need to be on a hike because I didn't need much help the only thing we needed help with was uploading the videos from drive to Imovie.

This term I liked the choice of having lots of guidance, a little guidance and basically no guidance. The reason I liked this was because you have choice in where you go instead of the teachers supervising you the whole time.

Week 8 Reflections Friday

My highlight for this week was when I moved into the Independent Igroup because I have been working really hard to get into this group. The things that I was working on was getting all my work done early and uploading to ALF. I worked really hard through this week and I finally achieved this goal.


The Igroup I am currently in is Independent. I do not think I am close to moving into Insider because I need to work on every single goal there is up.  My main goal is to push myself and "raise the bar" because I need to seek more challenges when I am not doing L8ED work.


I find ALF time useful depending on how much I've uploaded and whether or not I've finished all of my tasks.I think it depends on where I am at with different things for example if I have uploaded everything to ALF reflections are better vice versa.


I am feeling a little bit sad because Helene was a good teacher but this is opening up new learning opportunists because all teachers are different.


My Disquiry is going great all I need to finish is editing my last video then I am ready to present. Next week my priority is to finish editing then I am ready. Disquiry has been fun and I have learn't a lot. I think that combing these to things has saved more time and made things less confusing in general.
