My Learning Profile

In class we had to complete many different test to find out which profile we were. This was to help us learn more about ourselves and our teachers can learn more about our learning strengths and weaknesses. We learnt about which body parts were dominant and if we were a logic or a gestalt dominant learner. I turned out to be a logic dominant learner and a profile E. We all got to read about our profiles and learn about ourselves. In the class we had a variety of profiles.

I am a verbal learner and I must talk about what is being taught in class in order to absorb it. I learn best when analysing and communicating through verbal or written, information. I think that this is true because I have seen this in class many times. It has proved right because I like taking part in discussions in class. The analysing is proved when I like to look over information again and again. This is so that I understand the information and remember it correctly.

I need to explore emotions and movement a little more than I do now. Drama is encouraging lots of emotions and movement which I find very fun and amusing. A balance of art and music skills will be help lots in opening the gestalt part of my brain. This with help me to learn much better and make me more relaxed. In class I should pay more attention to my  gut instincts and trust my intuition. Activities that can sometimes help with feeling or being stressed in class can be things like lazy 8's.

The strategies that will help me in my learning are things like brainstorming my ideas on paper. I also be part of a group that has the freedom to talk to learn.We had groups for our literature circles that we discussed are work. I think that I would like my teachers to let us work in groups . In these groups we could discussed what we were learning that day. I would like my teacher to know that I should sit further back in the class where I can write and talk without disturbing others. 

 I was very interested in how we found out about are learning profile at first. It was a fun way to find out about myself in class. The profiles were a great way to get to know how to improve or help yourself with your learning. Teachers can now help us on the things we need to improve on. When I first read my profile in class I was very surprised. Many traits I recognise, they were just like my traits. Even when I got home and read the profile to my family they could see that it was all like me!

New Year's Resolutions

Resolutions

This Christmas I spent in KL with my family and friends. For this year I made two new year's resolutions. My two new years resolutions are doing my best in my class and not getting distracted in class. Second is doing my best in helping others. I chose these things because they are the things I need to work on in my life.  

 The first one is to try my best in all of my classes and not get distracted in class. To not focus on one class but to focus on all the classes so I can do my best in all the classes. If you only focus on one subject you can forget the others. All subjects can be important but sometimes it is good to think about all of them. Paying you fool attention in class is critical in different ways. It can affect your grades and your work. To me that is why trying your best in all your subjects is important and paying attention in class.

Second resolution is to help others as much as I can, at home and school. Helping others is vital because it is a kind and genres thing to do. Being helpful to others makes you fell good that you have helped someone in their everyday life. The people you help appreciate the help and it can mean that they will understand how to do it if there is no one there to help. I need to do this more because I feel it is important that everyone feels like they can do anything if they have a little help.

Holiday Snap Shots

During the holidays my cousins came from Muscat to spent Christmas with us. They came on the 21st of December and stayed for about eighteen days after that. My cousins are younger than my brother and I they are one, four and six. Roman is the youngest, Carmen is in the middle and Milo is the oldest. I shared a room with Carmen, Kane my brother shared with Milo and Roman shard a room with his parents.

Some of my most memorable moments of the Christmas holidays was the time we all went to the bird park. It was a hot and humid day, like most days. It was our first time going to the bird park and we took the GPS to help us. We made a few wrong turns and my Dad got a little angry with the GPS lady. We were all too excited when we got there to wait one more minute to get in. 


In the park we saw many different types of beautiful birds. There were love birds, peacocks, pelicans, pink flamingos and many more. They were also gorges and we took lots of moves and pictures. My mum, dad and I got a picture with birds on our laps and on our arms, I even got a bright red bird on my head. Kane, my brother was too scared of the birds and he was too embarrassed to be in the picture!

My second favourite snap shot of the holidays was when I got to see elephants and feed them  fruit. It was the second time I had seen an elephant up close. We went with my cousins and even my smallest cousin Roman fed an elephant. He went on my uncle's shoulder so the baby elephants could get the fruit from his hands. I thought it was very cute and took lots of pictures of my cousins and the elephants. Seeing that the elephants had a nice safe home was lovely to see.
