 M a d d y ' s  P a g e = "Consider the tortoise, it can't go anywhere unless it sticks its neck out ..." = I have chosen this Quote because it affects my education. If I don't put in to my education I can't get anything out of it. So that is why I have chosen it. I think the quote means that sometimes you have to put yourself out there and get out of your shell in the Tortoise's case. = My goals for SoSE = 1.To achieve good marks. 2.To get something out of every session 3.To know that I have done my best. media type="custom" key="3142168"media type="custom" key="3995815" I have learnt about cybersafety. I most enjoyed the SOSE class on presenting our cybersafety projects. My attitude has been good My behaviour has been good and I do not disrupt the class. On my report my SOSE teacher will say that I have been good and have never disrupted the class. I have worked hard and enthusiastically. I have not slacked off and fallen behind in work. My greatest strength is spelling and grammar. The two areas of my learning that I want to focus on improving are: 1. Knowing a bit more about computers. 2. Organising my time around my soccer. I am happy with how I have worked so far and I want to continue doing so good. ** = How I'm going  to  achieve  my  goals  in  SoSE = 1.I am going to try my best. 2.I am going to put thought into what I write and type. 3.I am going to keep up with what's going on and organise myself. 4.If I do not know how to do something I will ask how to do it and learn. 5.I am going to concentrate on my individual progress and not others.

 * TERM 1 REVIEW **

· ** __What have you learnt in the past month?__ **** I have learnt how to vote in an election and about how counts the votes. ** ·  ** __What did you do to help yourself learn?__ **** I helped myself learn by listening and doing what is asked by the teacher. ** ·  ** __What did you do that made it difficult for you to learn well?__ ** ** I was away and could not learn and do all of the activities we did and the homework. ** ·  ** __Who did you work with? Were these effective (good) working relationships?__ **** Sampada, Rebecca, Paula, Nina and Christine; because they all helped out and they are smart. ** ·  ** __How did you go with meeting your goals for the semester?__ **** . **

Term 2 How effectively have you used class time? I think I have used my class time very effectively because I get a lot done in class and don't have to do much homework.  How often have you completed homework tasks? Well when I am away I can't do most of the homework given out but I check the 'Work for today' page to see if there is anything I can do at home. Every once in a while I also check that page just incase I missed anything. What outstanding work do you still have? My best piece of work is probably my Egyptian Photostory project. In which area do you believe you have made your greatest improvement? I think my greatest improvement this term is probably learning something new in each lesson which I have done. What are two weaknesses you need to continue to work on? My first weakness I still need to work on is to check more often that I haven't missed any tasks that still need to be done. My second weakness that I still need to continue to work on is organising my time around soccer.

Term 4
I have learnt what contour lines are for and what the informal banking system is. I would do a lot less lecturing and more working. Look back on what you did earlier. Yes, because I have learnt a lot of new values this year.
 * What is the most important thing that you have learnt in SOSE this semester? Justify with reasons.
 * If you were the teacher of this class, what is one immediate change you would make which would be an improvement?
 * How do you measure personal success?
 * Have you been successful in SOSE this semester?
 * How much time in this class is profitable (used for learning)? I think we use too much of our time listening to Mr Reichelt.
 * What is one word you would use to describe your class? Intelligent.
 * For each of your goals, review your progress and rate yourself on how well you have achieved each goal (out of "5 stars") explaining the reasons for each rating.
 * For my first goal I rate my success 5/5 stars because I got good marks during the year.
 * F or my second goal I rate my success 3/5 stars because we didn't do much work in some of the lessons.
