Refection 3rd quarter

I have improved a lot on my goal for the year which was to get better at spelling. I improved by doing free writes and I am really proud of that. I have gotten better at spelling and I think it is time for a new one. We have been watching a plague video and have been taking notes. I feel like I can improve on taking notes. I will do more and think about what I write down.
