End Of Term Reflection

This term I really enjoyed doing cloze, because it slowly gets harder and harder. I really enjoyed art, as it was lino carving, which I really enjoy since it is fun to do something different, and it is not very often that I am able to do something like that. I enjoyed PE as we were doing basketball which I enjoy playing, although I never play it often, so it was great to learn some more of the rules, and learn some new tips. I really liked doing my SRA since it has been challenging me a lot more this term than it used to. SRA helps me learn new words, and helps me comprehend what I am reading, which I struggle with sometimes. My crossword on the back of my cloze helps me heaps in my learning because it has some words on it that I don’t know the meanings of, so it is good to have this activity so I learn the meaning of these new words. Building the maze has also been a great experience for me as it was a cool experience to help create a puzzle, since I am more used to solving them. It was also cool writing an article for the Plains Profile, because the experience of writing an article for a newspaper that heaps of people read, is a lot different to writing a story that only a few people are every going to read.

Next term I am looking forward to doing Impact, I remember really enjoying that last year, as we were able to choose anything we wanted to for our Impact topic, and we weren’t just making an Impact to the school, some of us were making an Impact in other countries too; like my Reading and Making Books group. We were going to donate some books to children in Tanzania, but were short of time. I am also looking forward to Cross Country since I enjoy running on hills and through obstacles as it is a lot more fun compared to just running on a flat surface with no obstacles to cross. My favourite part when doing Cross Country is probably crossing the creek where I can wash all the mud off my feet while crossing! Next term is also the Marimba Festival that I will be participating in. We have to learn ten songs for it and so far we have only learnt around about one.
