Reflection - Learning This Year 2020
Challenges:
This year, My teacher Mrs Tafea has been teaching
Room 7 how to do different kinds of work that we have
not learnt before.
Favourite things:
My favourite thing about this year is doing different
kinds of maths with Mr Tafea, but sometimes
he teaches us the same maths that we keep forgetting about.
I like maths because maths are easier than some
of the other subjects.
New things we have learnt:
The new things we have learnt with Mrs Tafea were
: Reading: 3 level questionings, especially
critical questions, Body parts and their
functions also the organ system plus major
systems & Maths: Ratio & Bodmas Or Bedmas.
Highlight:
My highlight for this year is to help other students
with their work, also I am trying to get a certificate
for this year on prize giving and if i get a certificate
my parents would be proud of me because my parents
kept pushing me to do a lot of work to get a certificate.
So that's why I kept doing all the work at home instead
of watching youtube or stuff like that, so I am trying
to get a certificate to make my parents proud of me again
like last year.
