Reflection On Refugee Unit

by 084531 on April 29, 2013

I found that the beginning of the book was very good. When they were in Nigeria I thought that it was great to know what it was like for them and for them to experience this. It was cool to see how they were living and then the big change that they experienced once they got to england. I also thought that it was quite unique how in this story they should the side of being a refugee going through the legal system. I thought that because they showed that it sometimes worked out for the people. What I did not like about this book was the fact that they did not really go through the process that most refugees go through. When I was researching about north korean refugees I found that even though they got out they still had to go through some horrible things to earn their freedom. This made me wonder whether or not these children in the other side of the truth actually had to deal with that much. It for me was what made me think whether this was actually trying to be true or if it was trying to tell everyone what they wanted to hear. I really liked this project and the idea I was pursuing. It had a great combination of work and being interesting.

Math Reflection

In this unit I liked how we did not just focus on geometry but also we learned about how number grow. I liked learning the formulas because it was like one big brain teaser.

This unit used my two favorite things in math and made it very fun and interesting. I usually find that in math class I am not as entertained in math class as I was this unit. I think that it
