Hi Guys 
This is what I learned in grade 7 science.

Hi Guys
Recently, our whole grade had a experience week! Some stayed in Hong Kong and helped out with younger students, some went to Beijing and most went to Thailand. And guess where I went – Thailand! Along with 110 other people.
Choose 2 of the learner profile attributes. Describe how you demonstrated these attributes on the Grade 7 Trip.
1. Risk-Taker
I showed that I am a risk-taker on this trip by doing a lot of different challenging things. Even though I already have done most of the activities one or two times, I knew that I still have more improvement and fears. For example, I already have done hiking a lot of times, though I knew that every time I hike I learn something new – this time, I experienced hiking in a different climate and a different type of environment.
2. Inquirer
I thought I was a inquirer at times in different activities – especially in jungle survival. I knew a lot of what we learned, though I knew it was quite different from what I learned. I learned how to build a shelter with bamboo, make a fire, and all sorts of things.
What was it like to be away from your family for a week?
It was for sure quite different being away from family because it’s – a different environment. To be honest, I was quite happy for the whole trip, because it’s like having the freedom (although I already have a lot of freedom at home ).
What is something that surprised you about yourself or about someone else?
I was surprised about when we were doing activities – some people didn’t have a lot of confidence, but still gave it a try and I thought they did a good job. For example in the confidence course (A Obstacle Course above Water), someone kept saying: “I’m going to fall right at the first part,” but then she managed to get through the whole course without falling into the water. I was a certainly surprised because I knew she wasn’t confident at first – though she tried at got through it!
What did the community service activity help you understand about people less privileged than you?
The community service activity helped me understand about how a lot of people around the world are less privileged than me. Lots don’t have the things that we have: Proper tools, Good Shelter, (and referring to most of us 
) helpers, and a lot of other things.
Overall, I had a great time on the trip!
