2nd Quarter Reflection

Throughout the second quarter I have made some improvements. One thing that I feel that I have improved in during the second quarter, is the quality of my blogs. Now I feel that my punctuation has gotten better, because there aren't as many run on sentences now as there used to. Another thing that I feel that I have improved on is the way that I answer question because before I felt like I wouldn’t use complete sentences, but now I feel like I do use complete sentences when answering questions. The final thing that I have improved on during the quarter is my organization skills because before I wouldn't be able to find things and I would always be losing things, but that is no longer the case because now I can find things a lot easier and I no longer lose things. Even though I have improved in some areas, I still think that I can improve in a lot more things.


Throughout the second quarter I have been struggling with some things. The thing that I have struggled the most with is the fact that when we are doing things that require a quote I have trouble finding a good quote, because when I do find a good quote I feel like there are better quotes to support my topic. Another thing that I have struggled with throughout the second quarter is time management. I struggle with time management because I don't manage it wisely, so I don't have enough time to do my homework that same day. The result of this is that I either do the homework in a rush the next morning, or I don't do it all. With these in mind, my goal for next quarter is to improve on these.

Something that I have accomplished since the new year is that I have done good on tests. A test that I have done good on is my math, because I ended up getting a 3 on it. Another test that I did good on, was the final science test of the quarter. I had gotten a 3 on it. The final test I had did good on was the ELA test, with the vocab test I had gotten zero wrong and on the roots I got 3 wrong. So even though I did good on these test I can still do better

Book Talk

Book: The Phoenix Files Arrival 

Author: Chris Morphew

Genres: Action/Science Fiction  

After his parents divorce Luke and his mother move to Phoenix, a town that is in the middle of no where. When they arrive they find out that it is a strange town. There are no cars, no phones, or even internet. Eventually it is kind of a paradise, but good things never last. While in his room he finds a flash drive with the initials J.B. During the next day at school they find a girl a matching flash driven, but with the initials L.H. Then after Peter, Luke's friend, looks the files they find out that the world will be ending in 100 days, and they are the only ones that can save it.

The book was absolutely great. The reason that I liked the book so much, was because of how the author wrote it. There was just such great sequence throughout the whole book. I liked it so much that. I could not stop reading it. The thing I will remember the most of the book will be, the moment that they find out that the world will end in 100 days. I would recommend this to everyone, even if they don't like adventure or science fiction books, because of how good this book was.
