My sleeping habits starts by taking a shower first. Then I would read a book for a while. After that, I would get ready for bed, and I would go to sleep.

What I learned from Kidshealth.org? -- 04-02-12

2012-04-02T15:06:17-05:00

I took a quiz from Kidshealth.org. It taught me to be more focused in my homework, so I wouldn't dwaddle during my homework time. It also taught me that I should clean my backpack once a week, so I can find my things much easier.

TSB reflection -- 03-28-12

What did Cole learned?
Cole learned that no matter what you do to get rid of anger it will always be there. He also learned that life isn't always fair.

What I learned?
I learned that what you do to the animals you do it to yourself. And that life is like a hotdog.

These lessons are important because sometimes life isn't fair. In the book Cole saw 3 baby birds died. He knew that they didn't deserve to die.

Another important lesson is that what you do to the animals you do it to yourself. I think it means that if you bully someone you're actually doing it to make yourself feel better.

One more important lessons was when life is like a hotdog. It taught me that I get to choose how I want my life like.

Sylvia -- Stop Motion Reflection -- 02-08-12

2012-02-08T22:13:57-05:00

Something we learn about stop motion animation is that it takes time to do a stop motion film. We were given a mac book and a small camera. Then you start making a stop motion film. I thought it was a lot of fun and it helped me be more focus.

Sylvia-- Fur of the Spirit Bear -- 01-05-12

2012-01-05T19:10:44-05:00

I think Cole shouldn't keep the fur because why would you keep a fur that was from an animal that almost killed you. And also why would Cole want to remember all that.
But I also would say that Cole should keep it so he can prove people that he really saw a spirit bear. However in the book he said,"I don't need to prove anything. I'm telling the truth." Those were his exact words.

SK-- Is Cole okay? -- 12-14-11

2011-12-14T19:49:47-05:00

I think Cole isn't okay because almost half of his bones are broken. Also his entire body is injured except his left arm. However he started to feel bad for what he did in the past like when he bullied Peter. I think Cole is starting to feel sorry for what he done.

Vow of Silence -- 12-06-11

2011-12-06T22:14:51-05:00

Last month, we had the vow of silence. I feel sad for the kids who couldn't speak because people wouldn't let them. So I decided to do the vow of silence for the whole day than doing it for 2 hours.
I find it really hard to keep silent for the whole day because sometimes you need to ask questions if you don't understand or asking people if they can borrow things. I put a tape over my mouth to tell them I'm doing the vow of silence. The tape help me by reminding me not to talk. However I spoke 3 or 4 times. I'm not happy that I spoke, but at least I tried to be silent for the whole day.

CCole Matthews bucket -- 12-04-11

2011-12-04T22:24:20-05:00

At class we're reading Touching Spirit Bear. It's about a boy named Cole Matthews who was send to a island so he won't be a juvenile delinquent any more. Now I'm going to tell you what Cole's needs are.
One them is fun. Well he has fun by beating up people, robbing shops, and other things. Now freedom is not what Cole really needs because he was send to a island.However at the past he gets hit by his dad a lot of times for sneaking out of the house or coming home late. The next need is power. He beats up kids who ever cross him so they'll be afraid of him. Except that he wants everybody to be afraid of him including his dad. What Cole really needs is love and belonging because his parents never care about him. One time Cole said,"my parents doesn't even care if I'm dead or alive!"
Now you can see that Cole still needs a lot of drops, but he dose have a couple of drops left in his bucket.

My Road to Success -- 10-25-11

2011-10-25T13:53:58-05:00

Terry Fox is a successful person because he tried to run across Canada to raise money to find a cure for cancer. Unfortunately, he only made it half way. Which is at Ontario.All though at least he saved a lot of lives, and also he tried to finish his marathon of hope.
There are a couple of ways how to be success. For instance you need to be passionate,and to believe that you can do it. You also need to be deterine to accomplish your goal. Another thing about how to be successful is that you never give up. If you give up you'll never know it you can accomplish your goal.
