Portfolio Reflection

Student Reflection

                This semester, I worked hard and tried my best in all of my subjects and I think my work in my portfolio really shows this.  In English, I worked hard to make my writing fascinating so that the reader would want to read on. In my English paper I used hooks in my articles to make them more fascinating. For History I included my “1968 Paper”. I am very proud of my “1968 Paper” because I researched the subject thoroughly and made sure to touch on all the topics about the fascinating months of 1968.  My Spanish and Science assignments show my dedication. In my Math project “Buy the Hour” I put a lot of work into my research to make sure it showed all the aspects of the project. My Science assignment the “Egg Drop,” I worked hard to relate our egg drop to Newton’s Laws of Motion.

                I also included my Spanish “Entrevista”.  Nate and I worked hard on making the transcript for an interview between Channing Tatum and an interviewer.  We spent many hours in Spanish class to perfect the grammar and spelling mistakes. In the end, we performed an amazing interview and got an A on our project.

                In the upcoming semester, I hope to keep up my hard working attitude and not slack off as it is easy to do in the middle of the year.  Team work has always been hard for me, but my Spanish interview demonstrated how team work can make something magnificent and worthy of an A. Next semester I hope to use what I have learned from this past one and apply my knowledge to become and even better student for my last semester at Calvert School.
