My Grade 9 Year
This year I enjoyed a lot of my classes. My favorite class was social studies because of all the interesting topics that are discussed in that classroom. I enjoy learning about all the ancient history and about all the kings and queens of different countries. I was most proud of my Top Student Certificate in my social studies course. I was proud of it because I had put plenty of effort into that course and I’m glad I have something to show that it worked. One of my stretches this year was math because lots of the time my brain can’t focus on a bunch of letters and numbers at the same time it gets confusing. I tried to improve this stretch by really focusing on what my teachers was saying and doing the best I could to understand it and this helped me improve my mathematical skills. Overall, I have enjoyed my very first year of high school and I look forward to the ones ahead.
My Favorite Website
My Favorite website this school year was Z-Bib because it made citing all the websites I would use in projects look so much nicer and, it made it all so much easier. In middle school I didn’t know what Z-Bib was or that it even existed. Z-Bib has helped me significantly in citing my websites and I am grateful for it.
My Favorite Video
My favorite movie/video this year was The Last of the Mohicans. In social studies we did a q/a on this movie and I really enjoyed watching it. The movie was a very intense movie that had me actively paying attention at all times. The movie was basically about tribes catching members from other tribes like a big battle. It was very action packed and good to watch. It is also based off a true story so this movie educated us a lot on the history of the Mohicans. Overall I really enjoyed watching this movie in social studies and I hope to watch more movies in Grade 10.
My Favorite Image
I chose this image because it is something I am proud of. For the final English project, we had to do a group book analysis on a children’s book. I had to make the graphic novel in comic form. I was very proud of how my work came out as I had put plenty of effort into making this comic. It took me about 3 hours of class time to do and It helped me develop a lot of my art skills enhancing my creativity.
My Favorite Quote
A quote I have always liked is ” Don’t Decide You Can’t Before You Discover You Can”. I like and live by this quote because there have been so many times in my life where I have thought that I can’t do something, a big one would be in Math. In math I had plenty of moments where I felt like I could not do work that was assigned to me and I really just wanted to give up. But this quote always reminded me to find a way so that I can do the work and that I can succeed.
