My 27th Reflection April 28th 09

Today I don't think I worked as well as yesterday. I was slacking off a bit and wasn't very keen to do my work. I think if I was more keen on working, I would have done better. I wasn't really talking much, but I kept starting to daydream for a while during the lesson. It was getting harder to find information on the Internet because I already had a whole load of information. I think the videos on Brain pop really helped me get more information, the only problem was that it took me a little while to write in my own words and not plagiarise the whole speech. This was our 2nd last lesson in the multi-media labs and I don't think I used the time as well as I should have. I wrote 5 note cards today and I hope the next lesson, which will be our last, I will write a lot more.

My 26th Reflection April 27th 09

We were back in the Multi-Media labs today. I was really keen to work today and get information because we were allowed to use the world-wide web. Mr. Sparks said it was our our last week in the labs today, so I decided that I would work my hardest this week. I think pretty well today, I was more than satisfied because I wrote 9 note cards. I did talk a bit during the lesson but only a little bit. I think if I improve on the talking, I will be able to write more note cards.

My 25th Reflection April 26th 09

Today we were in the multi-media labs again. Today I think I worked my hardest. I was keen on working and had lots of information to write. I did not talk at all the whole lesson which is a big improvement from when we first started, because when I first started, I couldnt stop talking. I worked well in finding the websites on the waterworks of ancient civilizations link and did not copy the information at all. I wrote in my own words completely. I think I could have worked better if I had not talked at the beginning of the lesson and at the end as well as losing interest when the bell was about to ring. I wrote 8 note cards this lesson, and I hope to do even more next lesson.

My 24th Reflection April 23rd April

We were in the multi-media labs again today. Today I think it was the best day. I definitely worked well today. I wasn't talking at all today, but when Mr. Sparks left the room I got carried away and started talking. This probably got me to write less cards today. I wrote 8 cards today. I think I could have done better if I had not talked when Mr. Sparks left the room. Other than that I think that I did pretty well today. I hope I will finish more note cards next lesson.

My 23rd Reflection

We were back in the multi-media labs today. I think today was one of my best lessons, as I did my level best and put in my utmost effort. I was more than satisfied with my work as I got a lot of new information today and we got to use different websites. I think these websites will really help. I concentrated more today , was just distracted once or twice. I was more keen and enthusiastic and was also looking forward to the lesson as well as using the new websites. I completed writing 5 note cards today and I hope that I write more next time.

My 22nd Reflection March 20th 09

We were in the multi-media labs again today. Today I don't think I worked well because I was talking quite often. I did not work very hard to find the information I was looking for, I just read through it quickly and noted down a few key points. I only wrote 2 note cards as a result of this. I think I could have worked better if I had not been talking and I would have worked better if I was more keen to do some research.

My 21st reflection April 19th 09

Today we were in the multi-media labs again. I dont think it was a good day, as I thought I would achieve more. I was not distracted, infact I barely talked. The only problem was that I couldn't find any information that I already did'nt have. Everytime I wrote Ancient Rome on Grolier, I got something about Ancient Mesopotamia. I still wrote down 3 note cards, with useful information. I hope I do better next lesson.

My Twentieth Reflection April 17th 09

We were back in the multi-media labs and I was determined to get more information today. I think I worked well this lesson, because I did not talk much the whole lesson. That turned out to be better because I worked harder and with more concentration. I finished writing about 5 note cards today, 1 of the most I have written in this whole project. I think today was one of the best lessons I have had so far.

My Nineteenth Reflection April 14th 09

It was our first day in the multi-media labs today. I was excited to go on the computers to research on some websites. We wern't allowed to use the World Wide Web as yet because we had to use sites that the school suscribes to first. We used Britannica Online and Grogeli online encyclopedias. I think I worked well today, apart from a little talking. I could have done better but I guess I was just a bit excited. I will try and do better next lesson. I wrote 3 note cards , which had information which I did not find in the books earlier. This will help me in the future when I write my essay.

My Eighteenth Reflection April 13th 09

It was our last day in the library today , hence I was motivated to get more information. I was looking for some more books and also looking for more websites at the same time. I was talking often, but I was also doing some work. I don't think I worked my best but I tried to. I think I worked well in trying to get my information, I went up and down the library getting other books. I found some information that I didnt have and it turned out to be very helpful. I have 40 note cards in total and I hope I write more when we get to the computers.

My Seventeenth Reflection 12th April 09

Like every day, we had to go back to the library. First we went to the classroom and took a vote on whether we should go to the library or multi media lab. Most of us opted for the library.So it was decided that we would be spending the next two days in the library. I don't think I worked well , as I was not too keen to go the library today. I thought we would have worked better in the multimedia labs. I was slacking off quite a bit and looking for websites in the books. I was successful in finding 6 websites and some of them hopefully would be very useful. I was talking quite often and kept getting distracted.
