Monday-Friday Journal

Jigsaw Activity

After presenting our group topic to other groups,

  • I got feedback and I gave my feedback to them
  • My good point that they gave me is, I am good at explaining,
  • They told me that, I should be confidence at my presenting too.


There are many feedback too but I can't explain it because I didn't hear to clear about it so I can't explain it.



I will improve my confidence next time at presenting.



This jigsaw activity is good because we can hear our friend feedback, we can get many important , and some are good at presenting too.


Reflection (Math, English, and UOI)


A. Math- Measuring Length- Word Problems


- I learned that measuring length on word problem can let us analyze more of the problem. Some of the problem I can solve but some I can't solve it.


-My good point in measuring length is to analyze more about the word problem. We had a game and it is about measuring length too. I learn many from the measuring length.


- I doesn't have any difficulty /weak point in this task.


B. English- Writing a Narrative


- My story in writing a narrative is telling a jokes on their name. I make funny name on my friend. The theme is friendship. I choose friendship because it is good to have many friend.


- In that time I didn't feel any difficulty. I am to normal to do that so I didn't have any difficulty.


- In my story, I like the changing name. The name I make differently so it is funny.


C. UOI


- In UOI, I learn and realized that we cannot cut tree.


- I need to more about how can rainforest cure people.


- I feel that rainforest is nice because rainforest gave us food.

Unit Of Inquiry

My difficulties in the assessment on "Impact of Rainforests" are the following:

  • I couldn't get many information about other topic
  • I can't illustrate very well

The thing that I need to improve is to read and analyze more about the topic.

I did well in Food Diversity because Food Diversity is my expert topic...

Journal

Math:
In math, we drew something related to angle. It is rhombus, parallelogram, equilateral triangle, right-angles triangle, square, rectangle, etc. We wrote the degrees of the shape.
Example:
Each side has 90 degrees. This are called a square. They have a same measurement and it is equal to each other.

English:
In English, we do typing because when we worked on the publisher it can’t be saved in the server so we couldn’t do the publisher and so we do typing. The publisher that I should make is about cloning animals, human, etc.

We went to the computer lab because we are done and Ms. Yolanda did give us a feedback on our work. Vincent’s group hasn’t done it so they couldn’t go to the computer and type.

We make the publishing by looking at the writing process. 1st we are on pre-writing, 2nd we do drafting, 3rd we revise, 4th we called the teacher to edit our work, 5th we do re-reading, and finally we published our work.

UOI:
On Saturday we went to the school, we went to school for tree planting at the side of Batam-Pos. I went there with my neighbor. She is called as Juliani. She went there to tree planting with me. Now, the she is in grade 5 and the school is the same as mine. I ask her because we need to plant 100 trees. My sister didn’t follow because she wanted to watch her television.

That’s all.

Our UOI task is to:
· Locating rainforests in the world
· Defining tropical rainforests

In this task, the thing that I just learn is the layers of the rainforest. In the layer there are emergent, canopy, understory, and forest floor.
The thing that makes me more understand is the label and the drawing.

Math Date: May 07, 2008

In our activity on identifying geometrical figures, I do it with my partner but some we do individually. Mr. Perico gave a solution to let me know it. I can do some and some of them I can’t. I hope that I can make it correct.
