Explore the Kingdom Trip Reflection

Activities. roommates. bus. what thing were challenges to you. what are your top 5 memories. 

     We went to Supalai Pasak Resort from 12 December till 14 December. It was really fun to explore many different places at Saraburi. We separate in 4 group which were Red, Blue, Green, and Orange team. I'm in a red group with Mr. John, Ms. Claudia, and Ms. Emily. In each group, we all did 4 activities at different times which were Kayaking, Rock climbing, Caving, and Hiking. In my group we did Kayaking first, it was really fun to kayak about 1 hour or about 1 hour and a half. First, we need to walk down on a sand to a river which I was really scared because it was really steep. But then I make it to the river, my partner for kayaking is Um. This was my first time to kayak in a real river! About 15 minutes at first I couldn't really paddle that good, but then after that, I could paddle correctly and I stay as the second boat behind a staff boat. While we were kayaking I learn many different things like about Ralph (I don't know how to spell) that when we feel like a boat going to sink down, we can make a ralph by stick together as three boats and put a paddle on these 3 boats. Along the path, I met new people who were fishing on the side of a river and I saw a beautiful view of nature that I haven't seen it before. When we finish kayaking, we need to walk down on a big place of mud which really sticky. All the mud stick to my feet which make get dirty a little bit. But it still enjoyable to kayaking.   In my group, our second activity is Hiking. We get really tired because the place where we walked, it really steep and we need to walk up. First, before we walked into a forest... we met with 2 dogs which really cute and they were both walked into a forest with us too. But these 2 dogs always made me scared of it because of it like to run behind us. We have 2 guides which were a woman and a man, they were really nice. At the first time when we entered a forest, we walked to a waterfall first which really nice. The second time we walked back and we started to walk at the tiring place ever on earth because of it really steep and we need to walk up about 2-3 kilometers which were really tired. But at the end, a man who was our guide told me that I was really good at walking because at the end I walk up at the first girl but behind Focus, Ryu F., and Top. It really fun and it was another way to exercise too! :))) Thirdly, our third activity was Caving or cave exploring. But the first group which is the green group get to go in a cave about 2 hours but for us, we went in just only 5-10 minutes. The first group gets to go 2 hours because inside there they were the first group and they didn't know that there were a snake in there. So, when the teachers know.....they just change place to go for cave exploring. The fourth activity for my group was Rock climbing which was really hard because we need to find our own way to go up and touch the chain. After we reach the chain we got some lollipops which were really delicious. 555.

Poetry Portfolio Story Jumper

Book titled 'Poetry Portfolio'
Read this free book made on StoryJumper
This is my poetry portfolio that had three poems in it which were Frustrated, Where I'm From, and Turning Thirteen. 

1) What is your favorite poem - why? 
My favorite poem is Where I'm From because I get to use many different figurative language in this poem and I can express my feeling and variety of ways. It is really fun to write a poem about myself. 

2) What was the most challenges part of a project - why? 
The most challenges part of this project is when I need to explain about mood and tone because mood and tone kind of like the same which make me confuse a little bit and when I explain it make me explain not really clear. 

3) If I had more time, how would you change? 
If I had more time, I would change my poem a little bit by making it rhyme in each stanza because if I make it rhyme it would sound nicer.

Water Cycle Lab Reflection:

1) What did you learn about the Hydrologic Cycle? 
Answer: I learn many different things about Hydrologic Cycle. I learn that Hydrologic Cycle had 6-7 stages which were Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Surface Runoff, Groundwater Percolation, Transpiration, and Infiltration. I learn that Evaporation was when water or liquid change into a vapor. Condensation is when clouds are formed. Precipitation means when it's rain, snow, hail, fog, and etc. Surface Runoff is when water flows on the surface or a ground. Groundwater Percolation means when water goes down vertically into a soil. 

2) What did you learn about teamwork? 
Answer:  I learn about teamwork by when we did an experiment. In my group, there were Fourth, Risha, Alanah, and Maxima. I learn that we need to listen to other people ideas to come up with a good solution. 

3) What did you learn about the design process? 
Answer:  I learn that to come up with a good design process we need to have a foil or some plastic thing that cover up on top of a pot so a boiling salt water could evaporate and on top of that foil or plastic thing we need to make it cool and cold so the water could come down along a straw so it can come down into a glass. 

Math Blog Reflection

     Overall from the started of the semester until the end of this semester, I think sometimes I didn't really participate in a class that much because I didn't really answer that many questions in class. But I think I did a good job in listening and follow directions because when the teacher explained what we had to do next, I will do it immediately and I don't have to ask other people what to do. I think some of my scores are accurate and sometimes it not because sometimes like the test of Summative Part 2 7.EE I didn't work it accurate enough. I didn't work it accurate enough mean like number 11 where I answer it correct but I accidently answer it in decimals which truly, I need to answer it infractions. But some of my test like a Summative 7NS, I got an E for that because I work accurately and I recheck it before I put it in a lovely pink basket. I completing the assignments as require with date and label writing the problems down and showing all the steps. In every assignment, I always write a date and I always do what it said in the paper which is showing the steps, show all work on the lined paper, answer only on this paper, or even circle the answer. I completing all that things. Topics that I learn from the started of the semester till the end of this semester were Integers, Order of operations, Absolute Value, Problem solving using Venn Diagram, Algorithm, Inequality, and all about fractions and prime factorization. Topics I like the best were fractions and prime factorization, Integers, and order of operations. But all topics that I was the least I like were Absolute value and Problem solving using Venn Diagram. Something that challenges for me was about problem-solving and being able to explain a bob's problem because when I needed to explain what bob doesn't understand, I would answer only a part of the answer. So that's why it challenge for me. Also, something that was easy for me was Order of Operations and Prime factorization because I can do it in all steps like for Order of Operation I need to follow a PEMDAS. Three things that I could have done better was a test about Inequality because sometimes when I divide or multiply with a negative, I will always forget to switch the side of a symbol. Another thing that I could have done better were about Bob problem and Problem solving because if I think of a bob's problem slowly, I would know the answer for it and I could explain it clearly. Two things that I will improve were about being more participate in class and be able to do more of the order of operations more faster. To improve on participate in class more, I could do it by try to raise my hand up when the teacher asked questions. One thing I would totally change was I would change of reading a problem more carefully because, when I had a test which had a problem solving I would answer different questions which I always got it wrong.   



This is a Summative 7NS which I get EEEEE. But I got 2 wrong which about Additive Inverse.




This one I got an M and like what I said, I always answer the word problems wrong so I want to improve on it.
