What I’m Working On
This year in 6th grade, I am working on a lot of things. For example, my Beowulf project. We are reading a book called Beowulf, and it is about a man named Beowulf. He is a very out of proportion hero. He comes from the land of the Geats, (Sweden) to the land of the Danes, (Denmark) to free King Hrothgar from the monster Grendel. My project is that I have to draw King Hrothgar before and after Grendel comes. I spent three hours on it, just to finish the after Grendel picture. We also made a fact to fiction story. We wrote about something that actually happened to us over the summer, then we added some fiction to it. It was really fun. I am really happy that fast reading is a strength for me, because it means I can read Beowulf fast, but get all of it. Something I’m struggling with is that I really hate stopping my flow, (my reading) to take notes, or write a chapter summery. We have to do that to prove that we read the assigned chapter. We are currently studying the feudal chart, and church hierarchy in the middle ages. It is very interesting.
