Lit circle #3

The tripods were able to take control by taking the worlds internet. Internet is one of the worlds best learning source. The tripods are taking the internet because the internet will help them learn to take over.

"if we stay then they'll cap us". This shows Will stressfull because he is not fit enough to travel so he can't. but then on the other hand if he stays then he will be capped.

"if we stay then they'll cap us". I say this again because i think that it shows stress and he doesn't want to be capped.

The White Mountains # 2

How will Beanpole effect Will and Henry's journey?

I think Beanpole is not a good guy but if I had to answer I would say Maybe Bean pole will help them escape from the tripods. What I mean is possibly Will and Henry will confront a tripod and will be in trouble then Beanpole will come in to save them. Also the reason why I think he is a bad guy is because if you think about it most stories end up with the guy who's helping them is bad. It's just a prediction though.

The White Mountains Reflection

How is Will just like you?

I think will i like me in quite a few ways. One of them is how he is scared of loosing what he has. This is like me in a way, because when I am scared of loosing my childhood. The reason why is because I can do a lot of things now but when I grow older I probably won't be able to do them any more. ex: Juggling and a lot more.

Another reason is because he is a person with some fears I am also someone with quite a few fears. The last reason is the way Will will protect Jack I would also do this with my dogs I would always protect them.

City Connection Reflection

I found the spark in my City Connection Project was my resources page. The reason why I think this, is because I believe it required all of the information needed. One thing I need to improve on is my presenting. Mostly because of my eye contact, I usually focus on the teacher and not any students which brings down my marks. I've learned how other countries have developed and what resources there special for. I believe I succeeded the expectation. Why I think think this is because I put a lot of time and thought into it.

My Learning Profile



Profile L

1. I learn best through movement and by focusing on a whole picture, context also emotional relevance to self. My movements intend to be spontaneous and fluid while relaxed. I may move forward with caution, feeling clumsy and stuck under stress. When i'm relaxed I usually see, hear and easily communicate the details and sequence of information, both verbally and written.

2. I need to move while processing internally with minimal external sensory stimulus. One more thing I need is quiet time alone, especially when integrating ideas new ideas under stress. I tend to start by imagining the end results and then intuitively doing what seem appropriate.

3. Myself as a learner is at a big disadvantage under stress in that I can not access my dominant hemisphere with sensory input and are therefore totally shut off. However, when relaxed, this learner can more easily access logic/gestalt integration than other gestalt profiles.. The dominant gestalt processing works with he preferential sensory-motor access of the hand, eye and ear to the logic hemisphere causing logic/gestalt processing to be more integrated.

4. I would like my teachers to know that I may have difficulty communicating, seeing, listening and remembering when under stress. As a learner I will see the whole picture but not know where start to chunk it down into linear pieces of of language to express it. I think it would me as a learner if I sat on the right side of class so I could hear better with my right ear and see better with my right eye.

New Years Resolution

New years resolution

1. My New Years Resolution is to get better grades in Math, Science and Humanities. The reason why I chose these subjects is because after the first trimester my grades dropped in all of those classes. One other reason I want to make my grades go up is because I want to maybe go to starship in 8th grade.

2. One of my other resolutions is to help other people more than I used to. One of the two reasons I want to help others more is because I want to be more helpful and useful. Not only to help classmates but also to help my mum and dad around the house.
