Goal Reflection

At the start of the year we decided on three goals that we needed to try and achieve. My goals were;

- Make new friends- I have done well at this goal because I have made 3 new friends.

- To get a leadership badge- I am not doing very well at this one because I always forget to post about my leadership roles.

Peer Mediation

Last Friday I had Peer Mediation. I arrived on time with the other people I do it with. We couldn't use an iPad so we just used a pad of paper. Luckily, we had no problems but we walked all around the field and did the full twenty minutes.

Even though I wanted to play basketball, I knew I had to go and do my leadership role. :)

Poems

Summer

Warm weather, blazing hot sun.

Ice cream melting down our hands, creamy goodness in our mouths.

Cool ocean, refreshing, rejuvenating. The deep aqua waves sloshing up and down the golden beach, look as if they are hypnotising someone.

Days last forever and nights are just a blink.

Summer passes in a breeze, and the excitement and fun fades away into just a pleasant memory.

The language features I have used are;

- Similie

- Hyperbole

- Alliteration

I have used them because;

Similie- to compare/ make something sound like what it's not. To add some cool effect.

Hyperbole- To exaggerate. Make it more interesting.

Alliteration- To make it sound cool.

Term 2 Leadership Goal

My leadership goal for this term is to post about my roles often so I can achieve my Merit badge very quickly. I also want to be a very good role model to the years below myself.

Square Roots

How to work out Square Root question;

First of all, here is the question:

What is the square root of 81? 

Basically, you have to think, what number multiplied by itself equals 81? Obviously, it is 9 x 9. So the answer would be 9. So the square root of 81 is 9.

What is the square root of 144?

Do the same steps and the answer is 12.

My Art

This is my self portrait inspired by Vincent Van Gogh. I used a dotted background by starting with a base colour (Green) and then used white and put dots in between. I got up to relational because I used several strategies but for some, I did not know why I used them.
