My best work was my last lit circle because I think that I did a really good job because I really took my time to look over what passages were good and what my questions were supposed to be and checked if they were a level 1,2 or 3 question.
The greatest challenges for me were the change from 5th grade to 6th grade. The organization was a really big challenge for me this year. Last year we didn’t have to be so organized that we needed to be this year. Some times this year I have forgotten to write down what homework we had or to look at moodle so I have missed some assignments. This affected my grades a bit and it took longer time to do the assignment.
My growth has been really surprising for myself. I never thought that I could have improved my writing skills because I have always been a bad writer. I have improved a lot in my writing skills. My analyzing has improved a lot. But I think it’s still hard, and a lot of work.
Regarding my work habits I think my behavior is good, but I could make my behavior so it would be perfect. My behavior could be improved by that I listen better to what the teacher tells the class and focus on that and not fool around and do what I want to do.
I think that participation is one of my strengths in school. I participate a lot in class and I get involved in any activities that we do in class or outside. I like group work except when I am in a bad group when my partners don’t do anything of the work. It is fun when we do experiments and when we solve hard problems together.
My organization is satisfactory and I really need to work on it and improve it. I have improved this year in my organization but I still think that it’s not good enough yet. What I’m going to do about it is that I’m going to look at moodle and try to write down what’s for homework and when I get home I should start it immediately.
When I put good effort into my work so I get a fair grade. But if I put a bit more effort into my work I would get a better grade than an okay grade. Like in some of my work I have put a lot effort in and then I have gotten A or B+. But almost all of the time I just put just enough work so I got an okay grade which is a C+ to B. I think that I should have at least a B to be satisfied.
Goal 1 - In Grade 7
My first goal is that to get my organization better so I know where I got all of my stuff and so I hand in all my assignment on time and don’t forget to hand it in. To achieve this goal I will have a folder for each subject and I will keep everything in it. I also need to write down my homework.
Goal 2 - In Grade 7
My 2nd goal is that I want to beat my high jump height which is 1.45 meters. To achieve this goal I will continue training in a track and field team and see after 7th grade if I have achieved my goal.
What I like my 7th grade teachers to know about me is that I’m very active and I like to do active stuff that involves moving around and doing something with the hands like building stuff, or experiments. I need this t be able to sit down and focus. What I would tell the incoming 6th graders is that they will be nervous the first week or two but it will go over. They should also stay on task and hand in their work on time so the teacher doesn’t have to send an email home and tell your parents. If they miss any assignments they should do it when they get home or come in at lunch and do it, otherwise they can stay after school and finish it. But they should always have their assignment in. They should also get involved in activities as well and just enjoy being in 6th grade. They should bring 10rm a day or 50rm a week for lunch and snack but it’s really up to the parents.
