Soundtrap Piece

In music recently we have been working on a composition in something called Soundtrap. In my song, I asked Meadow and Io to record something on my piece and they recorded the beginning. The I added a drum beat and used Noteflight to make a melody. After that, I wrote a part for Dave to play on my piece. While waiting for him to play it, I added it to my song so I could work the rest of the song around it. Here my song is:

Above is my Skeleton. I made Santa’s elf. He’s short and hardworking, and is wearing a green suit. Under is my Spanish test. The first picture is a page that I did well on. The one next to it is something I need to work on. I am good at hearing words and knowing the meaning of them, but I am not good at reading something and writing about it.

Pop Quiz

I started having little panics, going home and doing a lot of studying. I started getting better and soon I was getting steady threes, but then recently, I got a four. I am really proud of my progress and hope I continue to grow.

 

 

Take Home Time

When the test came I would do it every night and then check my answers around a million times. I am really proud of my score and I feel that I earned it.

Xtramath

1446822520799.1Xtramath is a struggle for me. It is one thing that I have trouble with. It is hard for me to type the answers in that quickly. I also find that when I study the problems out of xtramath I get them right in under three seconds but when I do xtramath I just forget all of them. Another problem I have is I forget to do it a lot. That is why it is a struggle for me that I am working on improving.
