Introduction
Hey mom! This is my profile that contains some of the assignments that I have been working through in Sargent Park. I would like to share some of my work to you such as Language Arts, Science, Social Studies and even Math.

Personal Reflection
I think I'm doing good in tests, kind of and I'm doing good in participating. I need to improve on my writing skills like read over my work. My goals for the next few weeks are study more, pay more attention and try my best with all my school work. =My Subjects= =Math=

Term 1 Reflection
I learned about Rates, Ratios and Proportions. Ratios were kinda hard with the part to part, part to whole, two term and three term. I learned that we use rates when we go shopping. Proportions is a relationship that say that say that two ratios or rates are equal. I also learned about perfect squares and square root. Perfect squares is a number times itself equals to a number, no decimals. I do all my work except I sometimes turn it in late. My homework is sometimes hard, sometimes easy. I think I will do better in term 2 is finishing my homework on time and asking questions when i don't understand and study more on test.

Term 2 Reflection
On term 2 we learned about Surface Area, Percent and Volume. I did well on surface area because the formulas are easy and so is Volume. Percent was difficult for me because I didn't understand it as much as surface area and volume. This term my mark went down by four. I also did well on the surface area and volume quizzes.

I struggled in converting the percents because I didn’t really understand how to do it. My test were sorta good but I could have done better.

I will try to do better in my tests by doing my homework and studying. I also should ask question when I don’t understand and I should offer answers when i know because in class I’m quiet.

I learned the basic formulas to find the surface area and volume. They were pretty easy just like Mr. Harbeck said. I learned that diameter is half of a cylinder and that half of a diameter is radius.

Cro-Magnon Drawing Assignment TASK: What was I asked to do for this assignment? I was required to create a four quad drawing assignment that describes the Cro-Magnon life of food, tools, homes and social structures. INTENT: Why am I completing this assignment? There are several reasons why I completed this drawing assignment. First, I know I can demonstrate my knowledge through drawing instead of writing. I also leanred to organize my information into categories about Cro-Magnon life.

CRITERIA: How do I know what I needed to do to be successful in completing this assignment?


 * visually represented 4 catergories easily understand by the viewer (specific details)
 * use all space and draw a scene from Cro-Magnon life
 * finish product (color, outline, heading, subheading layout)

NEXT STEPS:
 * I can now use a process to visually represent anytime period in history
 * I can now design element and layout techniques to do a drawing

Questions to ask a Culture


=Science=

media type="custom" key="9218436"
=Practical Arts= =2 Minutes To Make A Difference= media type="custom" key="8189894"

My 2 minutes to make a difference topic is Child Soldiers, one of my questions is How do child soldiers gain freedom? I found alot of key points about child soldiers like they are either forced into the army or abducted. They also brainwash them, they use kids in the army because they are smaller, quickier and younger. Child soldiers could be anywhere like the Philippnes. Right now in my project I'm doing a little more research too learn more about the issue. I'm not exactly sure when it's due.
