Words of Advice to Myself

  Today was our first gecko buck auction, We are going to have two more this school year. Here are some advice for myself for the other auctions. When you are biding for stuff you have to remember to not to bid on stuff for too expensive.  Keep your money for the end. Buy food. Only buy things that are not broken.  Keep a eye on the stuff.

My Crunch Reflection

    I am good crunches because I have a lot of upper body strength. I do gymnastics so I get a lot and I just preserver with my crunches. What I need to improve with crunch is that I need to push myself farther with my arms to my knee. I will do it by prat icing 3 days a week.

My Push-Up Reflection

I am good at doing push ups because I can do a lot of push ups because of my arm strength. What I did well was that that I can do a lot of push ups. I think what I need to do is maybe push down more in my push ups. I should do it to 90%. I will keep pushing myself down every 3 days of a week.

Essay Comparison

I now know that the difference between a personal and persuasive essay is that you are trying to tell people what you think when you are writing a personal essay but with the persuasive essay you are convincing them of what you think. I improved from my on demanded essay is that I put proof why I think this and put facts that convince them to think. As in the other one I just said why I thought it was a bad idea and you shouldn't do it. It wasn't I think making them care about not doing the topic.

Writing my persuasive essay was easy because I had a lot of ideas in the topic and it was easy for me to think of convincing facts. But writing my persuasive essay was also hard because we had to do it quickly and it was hard to do it and think it all thorough with the planning sheet.

My Personal Essay

It is the Hardest to Be the Youngest Sibling     I don’t understand. Why? Why do my sisters try to be the worst sisters in the world? They pick on me, and are never really nice, they say mean stuff, and boss you around so MUCH! I wish just for ONE DAY,they would be nice. Like big sisters should be. It feels like someone just leaving you off by yourself in the dust. When I was young, and I still now, my sister’s would always target on me when they are mad. Sometimes, my mom and my sister Genevieve, had a argument about my mom, because, she was helping my sister, and she got all annoyed and was mad at my mom. Then when they were done, and I had nothing to do, she walked over to me and tripped me, it wasn’t fair. But probably it was because I was the youngest and they didn’t care about it if they hurt me.  When my sister was arguing before dinner she sometimes copies me when I say something at the dinner table but quietly because she doesn’t want to be in trouble ...

UN Day Reflection

I enjoyed the most on UN day was was the presentation because it was a really fun experience. The yummiest thing I ate was paella that Michelle's mom made because it was something that I never ever tried t and it was delicious. I dressed up in a Chinese dress because that is the dress the Chinese people dress in. What we did to get ready for the assembly to create the show we made as a class, we got in a group, and got a nursery rhyme. Then we found the story be hide these nursery rhymes. Maddy and Mina got the part to do the intro and conclusion. We then drew the picture from the true story's of these nursery rhymes. Then we sang the song and made up actions. On the week it was the assembly we went to the theater and practice all of it.
