Term One reflection
Describe your performance in L.A. for term one.
In term one I put in a lot of effort in my work. I made sure that my work was handed in on time so it shouldn't be marked late. In all L.A. classes I stayed on task and stayed focused. I especially stayed focused during group or partner work.
**Two stars- Name two things that you did really well this term.
Two things I did well in this term are taking down notes for my famous birthday report and doing comprehension and discussing questions. I did well on those because for my famous birthday report I found all the information needed and there was a lot of detail. I did well on comprehension and discussion questions because I explained my answers and had all the criteria needed.
3. *One Wish- Name one way in which you could improve in term 2.
In term 2 I can improve by editing my work at least twice to check if there is no mistake.
