ePortfolio Sample - Science Term 1

Danielle, I like the way you have shown your understanding of the experiment through your
inquiry questions. This has helped you write a clear summary where you have related your observations to the pH scale.
Your next step is to compare and record chemical and physical changes.

The Giant Swing 

As I got put into the harness, I could feel my heart skip a beat. Twice. "Okay, are you ready Danielle?" "Yeah, I guess. "I could hear people behind me, cheering me on and talking to their peers. I could see the ground getting further and further away. "Are you ready, Danielle?" "Yes!" "3,2,1..." I could feel my adrenaline kick in so quickly. I could sense a pit in my stomach. After a while, I started slowing down. I could taste my saliva coming back into my mouth. I could smell the air coming back to my face. I wonder if I could go again? Can I?

Student Reflection: In my writing, one of my goals is: To use complex sentences. I did/did not show this goal here because.. My complex sentence: As I got put into the harness, I could feel my heart skip a beat. Twice. In my writing, one of my goals is to: To use interesting or technical vocabulary. I did/did not show this goal here because.. I did not use technical vocabulary because I did not use expressions. My next step is: To use more punctuation and use more vocab words. Teacher Comment: Danielle, I like the way that you have asked lots of questions to make the reader feel nervous. You have used show not tell in your descriptive writing by using the five senses and creating a clear picture. Your next step is to add more vocab such as adjectives to add effect. Miss Hurley

Groupings To 1000's

 With the 1000's I found it really easy when I got the hang of it. But with maths in general, I think I'm going really well, once I get the gist of it.

My next step is to learn groupings to 1000's without the number lines.
