Math Profile

In fifth grade, I had a hard time during math, just like in lower school because I didn’t get what I was being taught. In sixth grade, I had a really good math year. I did well on my tests and just had a good year in general. I like learning math because it’s a useful and necessary part of life. I dislike math when it’s not making sense to me because it stresses me out. I consider myself a good math student because I put a lot of time and effort into solving problems. When I get stuck during homework I take a break and occupy my mind with something else and then come back with a fresh mind. I would like you to know that I have executive function and get extra time on tests/quizzeds. I have put a lot of effort into my last year and I have progressed a lot. I am proud of myself for my accomplishments.

Spanish Skit

Sam, Will, and I worked pretty well together. Although, Sam and I did most of the work. Will almost never did his part in the homework. The skit  didn’t come out as well as it could’ve because the skits always needed correcting and Sam and I had to do this because Will never took initiative. If we worked more efficiently the skits would have been done sooner. I didn’t have my notecard with my script because I hadn’t had time to do because I had to do all the correcting because Will and Sam never checked it for mistakes. If I had my notecard my performance would have been better and I wouldn’t have forgotten my line at the end.  As a group, the performance wasn’t the best because Will started laughing during it and then all of us were laughing for a lot of it. Otherwise, it worked well. There were a few ways we could’ve improved on and off the stage. 1, we could have not laughed. 2, we could’ve been more aware of the timing. 3, we could have done a better job with the Spanish. Overall, I think the skit was good.

Art Value Chart

In art, we are making a value chart. We have to use four techniques; shading, hatching, stippling, and then we get to use whatever shape we want. Also, we have to do one of each things in a different drawing pencil- they vary from light to dark. 2H, H, HB, 2B, 4B,  and 6B. In this picture, I am in the middle of shading in 4B.
