Frames

I chose some frames because of a specific reason. The frame at the right, is the frame I'm using for my brother and me. I chose it because we have almost the same frame at home both my brothers face and mine. This frame will be located at the bottom of the tree because that's where I'm going to start the family.


The frame at the right is the one I'm going to use for my parents and their brothers. I chose this frame with no reason, to be honest. I just chose it because it looked good and it was the only frame that looked good with the dimensions of the pictures. This frame will be at the top of my brother and me. This are my reasons because I chose this frame.


The frame at the left is the one I'm going to use for my grandparents and my uncles. I chose this one because it looks antique and my grandparents are old. This frame is going to be at the top because that's where all my grandparents and uncles will be. Also, this frame remembers me of old times, when my grandparents were young. This is why I chose this frame.

Family Tree

This tree means a lot to me because it reminds me of Europe. In Europe, is where my whole family is. In winter every tree looked like that, even in my grandparents garden. This is not a regular for tree for me. This reminds me completely about my family. Also, I chose this picture because I remmember playing under a snow white tree the first time I whent to Europe.For me this is the best tree ever. This are my reasons of choosing this tree.

J.O.Y.

Something I just did was playing with my friends. First, I ate all my lunch. Second, I started to play with Santiago football. Then, we got bored because the ball kept on going out of the field. Also, because the grass was very wet. Then, we started playing a volleyball kind of game. We started playing and then all the others came. At the end all eight and ninth grade came and played. That was a thing I just did.

One thing that I would like to do for my self is to get a massage. The reason of that is because yesterday I hurt my self in the gym. I was pulling my self up a bar and then a crunching sounded. It came from my bones! It was so painful I couldn't move so they had to carry me to a booth. Then, thetrainer gave me a massage which only made it worth. My mom had to come for me very worried about me. This is why I want a massage.

A part of me that makes me very special is that I play the drums and I am very intelligent. Every day I practice playing in my room with the drums. I started when I was 12, I'm now 13. I don´t know many people that play the drums. I love practicing every day, but I do it as a hobby. I´m intelligent because i go in advance math and that is a very big achievement. These are some parts that make me unique.

Spring MAP testing

Last week, we took another MAP testing, which I hate. Like I said all ready, I hate them, you can't do anything! I keep thinking the same way I did in the October MAP post. I still would change every single thing, like letting students use Ipods during the test. I'm not very happy with my score, because I just beat one of my scores. Also, in the math test, it only asked me like 4th and 5th grade stuff, which I don''t remember. The most frustrating thing, is when you don't finish the test and you have to miss a class to do it, so you need to do all the homework by your own. This is what I think about the MAP tests.

Presentation grading

Today in class, we did some presentations in groups. My presentation was called How to Survive 7th Grade. I think I did pretty well, but I could do things better. I could have used more pictures and used more creative fonds. I also should have memorized it better, some 3o min. of practice would have done. Then, I cheked a presentation and gave it a grade. I really liked the presentation my friend gave. He used very interesting stuff, but sometimes you couldn't understand anything. After all he got a good grade. In conclusion, seeing and presenting was very fun.

powerpoint

One day I was with a sales person, who had to do a presentation and showed it to me. The presentation was about the rate of selling steel. It started good, but then, it whent from worse to horrible. Suddenly, the font was unreadable, and the backround was dark blue, and the font was black. There were some errors, like "teached" and some unexisting words. Also, he put all the graphs together, so you didn't understand anything. I had to tell him that hes presentation was not very good, it was boring. That was the time I saw a Powerpint with a lot of errors.

Earth Day Project Peer Evaluation

I learned many things when doing the peer evaluation. I finally learned the rubric in memory. Now I noticed a lot of small details that cost you a lot of points. When I was doing the peer evaluation I saw that I dindn't do the School Policy and that is worth some points. Well now that I know much better the rubric, I would say "yes", and erase the last names. The quality of the work I evaluated was high. I saw they did care about their work and what they did. They both put nice music and some cool photos and I liked it. But, I bad thing abut the 12 grader I checked was that she used a song but with some lyrics and that cost here some points.
