So, this week had its bad & good moments but overall it was a good week.

•Period 1: Social Studies. We began starting our next project which is suppose to be a summary/essay again. We took notes & shared our summaries in class. We also watched a video based on America & war back then. It was interesting & gross. ); back then they would eat other people's dead bodies because they were low on survival due to lack of food. To sum it up we took lots& lots& lots of notes in social studies ;3

•Period 2: P.E. we are still working on the same sport; Basketball. I got to work with a bunch of different classmates & alternated partners which was fun. We played this throwing game which was boring but it became fun when we challenged everyone. We practiced different ways to guard the ball but I'm so small, the ball lost me. Lol. We played capture the cone which was really fun! You had to throw a ball & if you make it into the basket you grab the teams cone & bring it to your teams corner. & we also had a race on who could get the ball into the basket the fastest. Although, that was dangerous for some people. Lol, my classmate slipped on the ball & fell. this week we are starting softball.

•Period 3: Algebra. This week we basically focused on HSA testing. The HSA was actually difficult because it went over a lot of things we didn't go over yet. Most questions I was just guessing. We took some notes in class which was boring. Although, since the HSA took 2 periods it was kind of like a 'relaxing' week for algebra because we never got any homework I only took notes one class. So, overall we did HSA testing -__-

• Period 4: Science. We are learning about the Rock Cycle. It is pretty easy only & ONLY if you review it every night >__< the quiz I did bad on because I only studied the cycle not the entire how the rock is made thingyz we had a rock lab & examined 12 different rocks & had to classify them based in texture, size, shape, & color. I actually learned a lot about rocks lol. The rock lab was fun & interesting.

•Period 5: English! We took a quiz & I got a good grade (: we went over reliable sites & non reliable sites. Also ways to tell if a news paper / source is trust worthy or not. Our next project for English is based on doing some research so Mr.Mitsuda is trying to prep us for using appropriate sites. One of the sites we are not allowed to use is Wikipedia. We took notes & also had a mini activity. Mr.Mitsuda showed us newspapers & we had to guess if it was reliable or non reliable.

•Leadership: This week in A101 we had our 'moments.' & talks. We weren't completing blogs but we completed out secret Santa one. I worked at.V which was fun(: except on Friday, lol. I was so nervous because we had a guest & it was nervous because like it was a different format & I wasn't use to it.

Secret Santa!

Yaaay for the Holidays!!<3(:

Talent Show Flyer

-This flyer is based on Ilima Intermediate's talent show.
This flyer was a fun flyer to do because it was based on one of my favorite themes! 80's, 90's, & now (: lol. I had fun searching for pictures (x anyways, these are the GLO's I followed for this flyer:

 GLO #1- Self directed learner:  
-I was a self directed learner because I was able to finish my flyer & flyer blog on time. & I completed this flyer on my own following GLO #4.
GLO #2- Community Contributor: 
- I communicated with others by sharing ideas, & discussing how we were going to complete the flyer.
GLO #3- Complex Thinker:  
-I was a complex thinker because I was on a computer that couldn't print so I just used my flash drive to transfer my flyer & dragged it to the other computer that can print so I could print it. Also, the keyboard I was using didn't allow me to use the 'x' & 'c' key so I edited my flyer on a computer that allowed me to use those two keys.
GLO #4- Quality Producer: 
- I was a quality producer because I made my flyer look attractive by adding pictures that refered to the 80's, 90's, & now theme, & I made my flyer colorful.
GLO #5- Effective Communicator: 
- I was a effective communicator by sharing my flyer here.
GLO #6- Use of technology: 
- I used technology by using the application 'pages' on the mac computer to create my flyer. I also used safari which requires internet as technology. Lastly, I used a printer to print out my flyer.

Talent Strips

-So this activity we did was fun, & difficult at the same time lol. 
I enjoyed this activity because I got to learn about my other classmates talents that I never knew they had. It was interesting to hear all their talents. One thing difficult about this activity was not being able to share the same talent lolol. So, if someone took the talent I was going to share, I had to pick a different talent to share. Anyways, here are the GLO's I followed for the talent strips:

GLO #1- Self directed learner: 
-I was a self directed learner because I was able to complete all 5 strips on time, & I came up with all my 5 talents.
GLO #2- Community Contributor: 
I completed this GLO by sharing other available talents with my friends if they needed some ideas. I helped others, & they helped me as well (=
GLO #3- Complex Thinker: 
- I was a complex thinker because I never had 5 talents that came up on the top of my head so I had to think hard about what I love and enjoy doing so get 5 talents.
GLO #4- Quality Producer: 
-I was a quality producer because I wrote my name across the whole strip neatly in bubble font so it wasn't so boring. & I also wrote my description for my talents neatly so people can read it clearly.
GLO #5- Effective Communicator:
- I communicated with others by sharing 3 talents of mines.
GLO #6- Use of technology:  
-For this activity I didn't use any technology. I used paper, pencil, & my head.... lol.

Leadership is not about ability, its about responsibility

      "Leadership is not about ability, it is about responsibility.''
-This quote speaks that in the leadership program it is definitely about being responsible. For example, if you are having a hard time with music, just ask for help. As long as you are there for music on time, you have your music, & you are set up then those are the basic responsibilities for music. If something is wrong ask for help. Speak up. When in the leadership program you must follow through all directions and listen carefully and there shouldn't be problems. If you are responsible you will follow the directions and there shouldn't be problems. Although if you aren't being responsible and listening carefully there is a chance you will face problems. In leadership there is MANY responsibilities. (T.V, music, I.D's, ect.) & in order to be in leadership you have to be committed and responsible. If not you'll mess up. Leadership is not about what you can and cannot do. Its about being there. You should be responsible and show that you want to be here in the leadership program. Even though there will be something you cannot do that shouldn't effect you from being responsible. Leadership is a very important program in Ilima and we all have said we are willing to take time out of our day for leadership, that is one responsibility we were given.

Halloween Poster

 GLO #1- Self directed learner: I was a self directed learner I did my part of the poster such as creating the title (font,color,style) & pasted it. I also worked well with Bretman & made sure I could help him with whatever needed to be done.
GLO #2- Community Contributor: To complete GLO #2 I communicated with Bretman for planning and sharing our ideas to get the poster done. & I also helped others with the silhouette.
GLO #3- Complex Thinker: I was a complex thinker because at first I needed help with the silhouette(sp?*) thingy but before I asked anyone for help I tried to figure it out on my own.
GLO #4- Quality Producer: I was a quality producer because I cut & pasted the title neatly to make it look neat.
GLO #5- Effective Communicator: I communicated with others by helping them and showing them Bretman & I's poster. (also sharing it on blogger.)
GLO #6- Use of technology:I used technology by using the silhouette to make the title for the poster.

Halloween Dressout

 GLO #1- Self directed learner: I completed #1 by creating this flyer on my own with everything that needed to be on it. Such as, when, where, & categories.
GLO #2- Community Contributor: I communicated with others by sharing ideas and giving them compliments on their nice flyers (:
GLO #3- Complex Thinker: I was a complex thinker because I didn't finish my flyer in school so I needed to complete it at home although I don't have the 'pages' application so I found a different way of completing the flyer. I used 'paint.' lol (x
GLO #4- Quality Producer: I was a quality producer by choosing nice photos that somewhat matched Halloween theme & I pasted matching pictures with the categories (:
GLO #5- Effective Communicator: I communicated with others by sharing this flyer on blogger lol.
GLO #6- Use of technology: I used technology by using the internet for google to google pictures. I also used the application 'paint' on my laptop to create this flyer & used a printer to print it out.
