Term 1 Reflection
In term one some of the things I learned were Rates, Ratios and Proportional Reasoning. Another thing we’ve been learning about recently is the Pythagoras theory. Which is all about finding the area or hypotenuse of a triangle. Using this taught me about how to square numbers and find the square root of a number.

Rate: A comparison of two quantities measure in different units. Ratio: Compares different parts of a group to each other. Proportion: An equation that says two ratios or two rates are equal. Pythagorean Theory: The relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangle.

In this term I did all my work but I think I could have improved on the neatness on my textbook homework. In term two one thing I can improve on is studying more for my tests. This could deffinetly help me improve my math mark. Another thing I could work on is participating more in math by awnsering quistions and contributing to a group.

Term 2 Reflection
This term I will try doing my blog work faster and comment on more posts. This term we learned about finding the surface area of Rectangular Prisms, Cubes, Circular prisms, and Triangular prisms. I learned how to calculate the TSA (Total Surface Area) of shapes and use them in math problems. Ex: Find the area of a Rectangular prism with a base of 5cm, a height of 5cm, and a length of 10 cm.

A= b x h x l (formula) A= 5 x 5 x 10 = 250cm2 A= 250cm2

The area of this rectangular prism is 250cm2.

Find the area of a triangular prism with a height of 5cm, a base of 5cm, and a length off 10cm.

A= b x h / 2 x l0 (formula) A= 5 x 5/ 2 = 12.5cm2 <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A= 12.5cm2 x 10cm2 = 125cm2 <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A = 125cm2

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">The area of this Triangular prism is 125cm2.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Find the area of a circular prism with a diameter or 5cm, and a height of 10cm.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A= D/ 2 <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A= 5/2 = 2.5cm2 <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A= 3.14 x 2.5 = 7.85cm2 <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">A= 7.85cm2 x 10 cm2 = 78.5cm2

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">The area of this circular prism is 78.5cm2.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">These are some example of what we learned in term 2 on how to find the area of prisms. We also learned about the different views of 3d shapes. We were able to find the area of 3d shapes using Isometric dot paper. I thought it was fun because we could make any 3d shape using this paper. It was an easy unit for me and I enjoyed it. This term I did an okay job but I could have done better. This is my goal for term 3 and I will achieve it by doing all of my homework and doing all my blog work. (Posts, Comments, Videos, etc.)

Integers
In my test, my biggest mistake was question 20 b), -6 -3 x 2. My mistake was that I went 3 x 2 which is + 6, +6 - (-6) = 0. Its supposed to be - 6 - 3 x 2 = -12.

GRADE EIGHT STUDENT ASSIGNMENT- PORTFOLIO REFLECTION TASK/INTENT/CRITERIA
Throughout the year I have completed assignments based on Assessment for Learning practices. The learning process has followed the three key components: Subject:ELA

TASK: What was I asked to do for this assignment? I was required to compose a friendly letter using information from a short story. INTENT: Why am I completing this assignment? There are several reasons I a doing this writing assignment. First I learned the elements of a short story and I learned to identify them in our. Next, we learned the components to write in a friendly letter format. Then, we applied specific story details and wrote in the first person as if we were a character from the short story. CRITERIA: How do I know what I needed to do to be successful in completing this assignment? - use proper friendly letter format reffering to letter form - composed the rough copy letter using specific details from the short story and write the letter from the perspective of one of the main characters in the story - remember to use appropriate tone and audience for the letter complete all steps in the writing process as set out in the assignment directions.
