Unexpected things can happen at unexpected times. Some are good and some can be bad. Some can make you sob, some can make you shriek of joy. But right here, right now it isn’t much of a good thing for me. Oh… I can’t believe its already time. I’ve been here since Grade 3 and [...]

We had 3 math tests related to fractions, decimals and percentages. The junior choir, which I am a part of has done some performances too. I think I [...]

From the 22 to 25 of November the whole grade 6 (except for some people) went on a trip to Zhao Qing, Guang Dong. It was a really fun experience from all the different trips I went on. I did go on the grade 5 China trip to Gui Zhou. For that trip about 25 [...]

This week we started the unit, How We Organize Ourselves. We did many interesting activities today. The grade 6 students set up markets as a pre-assessment for this unit. But the main point was to earn money for a charity called, World Vision. Every classes goal was $2,500. I think it really helped us actually experience markets. [...]

Phew! First of all, I want to say that I’ve had so much fun doing this unit. I’ve learned more about the different types of art and how we all use them for different purposes with different opinions. Secondly, it was a really… let’s say busy unit. With all the different types of activities from [...]

This week we mostly did our summative assessment. We have to get it finished by next Monday but so far I’m not sure if I can do everything I planned. We had some distractions but they were mostly fun for us. We had Mr. Duane Smith, the head designer for Reebok come in and do [...]

This week, we started a new unit called, “How We Express Ourselves”. The central idea is, “The application of elements and principles determines the success of an artistic composition”. You can learn more about what we’re studying from this overview. The main attitudes I want to talk about in this post are enthusiasm and confidence. First [...]

In this unit, Who We Are I learned at of new things that I didn’t know at all or didn’t know much about. Our central idea for this unit is “Differences in values can cause conflict that we choose to deal with in different ways.” We did loads of activities about beliefs, values and conflicts. I learned more [...]

This week we learned a lot of things. This week, our class focused more on conflicts than beliefs and values. To prepare for our summative assessment we did many unique activities such as short plays about different conflict situations. We also made some more jot notes on ways to solve conflicts. Also for our weekly [...]

This week our class did a lot of unique activities. In math, we reviewed place values. We did activities like using macaroni to make numbers on place value charts. We also did many art activities. We watched many slide shows on design and what they express. We continued on focusing on beliefs and values. Our class [...]

If you add them you will get the number next to [...]

Today at school, we did a small activity on our beliefs and values. First, we read a book and then we did a small activity talking to others about our beliefs and values. After that we did a class activity of our opinions on different beliefs. Then we wrote some paragraphs on our beliefs and values. With the [...]

Whew! My first summer with summer school (if you don’t count the pre-school ones…) well I could say it was… okay. Right after my summer holiday starts I have to go to summer school for 2 weeks. I took public speaking lessons at CDNIS. It was not really what I wanted to do but it [...]

Here I am again in the school library, writing another post on to my grade 5 blog when I should be some where in Korea relaxing at my aunt’s home watching TV or playing computer games. But as change of plans, I am in the library rather wanting to write a blog post rather than [...]

Hi! As I promised I am writing again in the school library. So during my birthday sleepover/party I watched Mr. Popper’s penguins with Cherie, Anna, Florence, Kelly (my younger sister) and my dad. It was pretty fun and had a lot of humor. I like watching movies and comedy movies are my favorite. I really suggest [...]
