1. What piece of work and learning are you most proud? Explain.

My favorite piece of work is my latest Lit Circle. The Giver was the book we read in order to write the latest Lit Circle. The reason why I am most proud of this work is because it's the first time I've gotten an A for Lit Circles. I've set a goal to get an 'A' for Lit Circles since I only got B's. I tried reallly hard every time we had to do a Lit Circle. I'll look at the comments on my previous Lit Circle, and ask friends to read through my work. After all that work, I finally got an A. That's why the latest Lit Circle is my favorite work.

2. What were your greatest challenges? Explain.

I'm pretty sure that the greatest challenge this school year was to see my brother, Eric Park moving on. He graduated this year, and it was just too hard to imagining him graduating. I do most of the time fight with my brother, but with all the problems he had in school life, for example, getting bullied, and becoming half deaf, it seemed like a miracle. It was really hard to see my brother in that graduation hat. It just didn't look right.

3. Reflecting on your growth this year, what did you learn about yourself as a learner?
I learned that I could get good grades if I try hard, and some teachers give me a good grade even though my work is bad but knew that I tried really hard. I also learned that teachers don't like hurried work. I did it once and the result wasn't good.
4. To evaluate your work habits, choose 1 of the following from each category (and provide explanations):

a) Behavior

Could be improved-

Perfect - the model student

Explanation: I really participate really well in my classes. In math, I eagerly raise my hand to answer questions, but once I had a really bad headache that I couldn't talk much. I volunteer for nearly everything the teachers ask.

b) Participation-

None
Satisfactory
Actively participate in class-

c) Organization

Needs serious help
Satisfactory- I am okay at organizing, but I don't recommend opening my locker after PE. My locker's always organized, but some say it's really messy. I am also organized with my work, but sometimes, for humanity, I lost some hard copies of my work, and I got in trouble. I should work on that.

I'm super organized

d) Effort

Needs serious help
Satisfactory- I'm not that bad at effort because I always try my best at almost everything I do. But sometimes for projects like make a poster and things, I sometime go above and beyond by making my work unique.

I always go above and beyond what is required.


5. Based upon your reflections, write two personal learning goals for Grade 7 next year.

Goal 1 - In Grade 7, I plan to try and get grades above B- all the time. By setting this goal, I'm sure that I could lift my grades and soon my goal will be to get grades higher than A-.


Goal 2 - In Grade 7, I plan to try to make new friends and make new students welcome. I know that this is important because being new in a new school isn't easy, and getting new friends will make me and my new friends happy.


6. Is there any more information about yourself that you would like the teachers to know? I don't have any more information the teachers would like to know.


7. What was your favorite activity lesson in Humanities this year? What did you enjoy about it? I liked the Mafatu book TIC TAC TOE project because I got to meet a good friend, and I got to build a mini island using clay. We also got to make a movie commercial. Mrs. Reiser thought it was great.


8. What activity do you wish we could have spent more time on?
I'm not sure about that, because we had the right amount of time to finish each activity,

9. Finally, cast your minds back to the first few months of middle school (when you arrived in Grade 6 ) what "Words of Wisdom" or "Advice" could you pass on to the Class of 2018?
I have two things to say. Don't ever hurry your work because at the end, the result isn't pretty, and the last thing is that keep organized and always have a new pair of uniforms in your locker just in case there's a water balloon fight.
Enjoy,

1. The title of this book is 'The Lion'.

2. This book is written by Nelson DeMille

3. This book made me think about terroists, Osama Bin Laden, and the twin towers incident.

4. This book is probably a college level book. There aren't any hard words, but there are swear words. That's the bad part.

5. The bad part is that it is quite disgusting. It's violent. When the "LION" beheads a pilot, it's very descriptive. If you are very sensitive to violent things, you shouldn't read this book.

A little summary: This book is about a CIA cop who survived the twin towers incident. He was inside the twin towers. He also met this terroist, and the terroist ran away. Now, the terrroist is looking for the cop, trying to kill him.
