My reflection of the term!


Reflection of the term

Questions
What's worked well?
What I’m proud of this term?
How have I shown my YMS qualities? (When and How)
Are there some things that haven't gone well for me? Why?
What challenged me and how did I through the challenge?
What will be my focus next term?

Something that has worked well for me this term is mostly everything especially my maths because I have learned new things that I didn’t really get. I have shown my YMS qualities in the playground at break times by playing fair with others and also at Winter Sports too because whenever we lost, we still didn’t lose hope and when we won, we just did a small cheer and that was it. This term, there hasn’t been anything that hasn’t gone wrong to me. Somethings that has challenged me is probably the maths investigations because at first when I read it, I don’t really get what is trying to say but as I keep reading it, I get it. But then after when we have to show our working out, I always forget so if I did my working out on a whiteboard then I will rub it out and forget to take a photo but when I try to show my working out again, I forget because I already know the answer and I can’t write it again. Something else that has challenged me was also in maths except it was the things that we had to learn like the fraction stuff because I wasn’t here on the day and when I came back I didn’t really get how to solve the faction things but then, the people in my group and my teachers helped to understand it because they are awesome. In reading when we had our reading group and did I think that means about the volcanoes or rainbows, it was challenging because I sort of understood it but I didn’t really know how to explain it with kind of copying the text but now it is a bit easier since we do “I think that means... “ more.  I think that my focus next term will be, to understand the text more in reading when we have “I think that means... “

How to write a Cinquain!

Hey there bloggers!
I'm back, anyway, today I will be teaching you how to write a Cinquain which is a type of poem but before I teach you how to write one, I will teach you an important thing about the Cinquain poem.
Cinquain poems are a five-lined poem but none of them rhyme and created by Adelaide Craspey.
Although even if it is a five lined poem, you have to have a certain type of sentence for each line.
And for each line, you have a certain amount of words that you can write.

In the first line, you have to have a title but it has to be about something, for example, you could do your poem about an animal or a person say for example a cat. So you would put Cat in your first line, then in your second line, you have to write a description or example of the title but it must be 2 words. So if your poem was about a Cat, then you would put something that would describe it, say you could write, Fast, speedy. In the 3rd line, you have to write a 3 words phrase, for example, jumps, attacks sleeps? I don't know. In the 4th line, you would describe a feeling about the title so maybe you could write lonely looking for friends and then in the last line you would write a synonym for the title which has to be one word. To make it even better, you could add a gif or photo!

Here is a poem that I have made and it is about Friends and I hope that you enjoy it and I hope that you have learned something new!

Friends
Nice, graceful
Running, jumping, laughing
Wild like a tiger

Family
