Prototec 5/1/18

Today for maths my group and I did a prototec. I am happy on the score I got because I got 97% which means I got 39/40. I know that prototec helps me with my maths and I know as I keep on doing it I can get 100% next time. I know for a fact I need to practice my percentages more, however I know next time I will do so much better.  

Prototec 4/30/18

First day of school and my first prototec of the term. I know for myself that this wasn't my best work but I know I can do better next time. Prototec helps me with my fractions,addition,subtraction, and so on, however it helps me a lot when I apply it to my school work or a test.

Identifying Figurative language in novel

WALT: identify figurative language in novels

Today I drew a picture based on what we had to do for class on air.
I had to draw a picture that explained a personification I picked it out from the novel The City of Ember. 

 EXAMPLE: My Heart was pounding. 

 What is a Personification? Personification is when you give human qualities to nonhuman things. 

 I am glad I was able to finish my work and have a clear understanding on what a personification is.
