Reflectioin
This year in 6th grade, we did a lot of things and projects that was to do with group work. However, I think I didn't do well on my literate circle as much as I did on the most recent project which we just finished (tick-tack-toe). We were supposed to do a project on China and basically the religion dynasties and the geography in Ancient China. I think I did well because in the beginning of the year, I didn’t do as much work as I did for the tick-tack-toe thingy. The thing is that I don’t really know why I did better.
For me, I had some challenges through our this year. First of all, I thought that the lit circles was hard, but as I practiced it, I think it is not hard any more. Another thing that I thought was challenging was the first tick-tack-toe firstly because I didn't like that book that we had to do a tick-tack-toe on and I tend to not focus when I don't like that subject but that rally happens. The book that we were doing the tick-tack-toe on was called Call It Courage. I didn't really like that book and so I kinda didn't do a lot of work. I just helped edit one part and that is all I did. My partners were called Esme and Nick.
Reflecting on my growth this year, I learned a lot of things about my self as a learner. A way that helped us learn this year was when we did this thing to find your profile and I didn't know that I was profile '' I '' which I thought was kind of cool. Everyone now knows what their type of learner they are because we studied about that.
To evaluate your work habits, choose 1 of the following from each category ( and provide explanations): your work habits, (and provide explanations.
Behavior- I think my behavior was satisfactory through out this year but some how, I think I could have improved in a way which I am not sure of but also I think I did not say anything that was not polite and I didn't disrupt the class and I didn't interrupt my teacher in class when he was talking. If I did, it would have been rarely.
Based upon your reflections, write two personal learning goals for Grade 7 next year. Goal 1 - In Grade 7, I plan to do a little more than I am expiated in work and humanities especially because I am only doing what I am supposed to do but I also want to write more about what I am supposed to write about to get a better grade. Goal 2- Another goal that I have that I could improve the next year is my organization because in the beginning of the year, I didn't really complete my lititure circles on time and I think I have to work on that task.
I was asked if I had anything else to let my teachers know, but I don't think I have anything else to say about myself during this year.
There were somethings that I though was fun this year. I think that was the diary entrys because I thought it was a good experience and I could also learn more about the person I was told to do which was a peasant and I think it was one of the most essayist thing that my class did. That is because I do my own diaries at home for fun and I also like doing them.
I was supposed to tell what I enjoyed about the diary and I think I enjoyed the fact that when we finished the diary enteries, we could have decorated it to be old and or put it on a blog which is what I did because when I did made it as a book, it was ripped a part and so I thought it was better to do it on the internet/blog same thing.
We were told to tell what we could have spent a little time on and this is what I think. Well, there are many things that I could have spent on but here is one of the things which I thought we should have worked on this year in 6th grade. I think we could have worked on the diaries more because we didn't have that mush time but I finished it on time. However, I still wished we were given a bit more time so that I could work on other homework as well as doing the diary. Those are my thoughts.
There are many advises that I would have give to the class of 2018. Here are some thoughts or advises. First of all, for the lit circles, if they still do them, you should always do one box a day. Second of all, you should share it the minute you open the document if not you might forget to share it with your teacher which is what I once did. Lastly, you should always also back up your work because you might lose your work which happened to my friend a few times (not mentioning any names though...)

White Mountains
Dear family, citizens of Wherton,
I am sorry about the way that I left Wherton the way that I did and I wished I could have told you that I did but I did not have the courage to. A cuple of reasons why I left Wherton is what I am going to tell you about in this letter and by the way, there is no point in looking for me because you might never find me but me, Henry and Beanpole are great!
Well, like I said, I did leave home for many reasons, actually, just three reasons. I might have left home for more reasons, but I can't think of them all right now. Here are the reasons I know why I left home. First of all, Jack was my friend but until I knew that he was capped, that was when I decided to leave home. I missed the old Jack and I also wanted to leave the town or our home because of that and something else. I did not like the fact that Henry's mom passed away and that he had to live with me because I am not used to sleeping in the same room or actually sharing a room with any one because I am the only child. I also did not even like Henry one bit then, but since we are grown up we have a closer relation ship which is a great reason that he left with me. Also I met a person who’s name was Xhonpole but I can’t say that name so I call him Beanpole and he told me that there is a place that was full of non capped people living there and I do not want to get capped so I had a long journey.
Secondly, I am going to talk about choices in the world and the importancey of choices and the one that I reasonly had made. There are many choices in life that I could have made and one of them is chosing what you want in life, which for me is running a way from home, which I regreted not telling you and felt awful that I did. However, I had to get capped, but I didn’t want to. Luckily, I met Beanpole who told me where the people that wasn’t capped from and I wanted to go there.
Well, that comes to the end of my letter.
From Will.

The white mountains
Tripods controlled the people by capping them. They cap them by depositing a metal cap on the head of the people. However, they do have to be a certain age to be capped, which is around fourteen. Capping is also the time when you go from being a child to being an adult. You cannot do what ever you want because you are now capped or in other words, you will be controlled by people that cap you. Jack is finally capped and Will goes to talk to him about it. Will hesitated and blurted out, "what was it like?" Jack shook his head and told Will he was not permitted to talk about it. "I will promise you this though. It will not hurt and they do it for our good." The made it easy for the Tripods to control peoples thoughts and get them to do what they wanted.
Well, Will misses a girl which she likes in this book is called Eloise. Will can not be with her because she is capped. Being capped means to be controlled by someone with a cap in the persons head like a hat but instead, its a metal hat. One example that was said in chapter six was when Find evidence (quotes) to
the book said, " I wished Eloise was here." That is one of the quotes which I thought was why Will was frustrated about the comete, Comtesse and Eloise being capped in this story.
Lastly, the evidence that shows how Will feels about being capped is what this paragraph is going to be about. I think Will is sad to be capped because he does not have any freedom in his life anymore.
