School Begins.....

Learning Log for Week of August 17th - September 4th

My family and I started school this week and I am happy to start again.
I like school and I am excited to start My Tech High this year.
I am especially excited to start my Digital Photography class.
My favorite things we did this week were History 

and my "Through the Wardrobe"class with Leadership Education Academy.
Here are a few more things that I learned:

Homeroom:

I logged onto Homeroom and learned how to use the different programs and websites. I specifically liked BrainPop, it's website has a lot of great information that kids can learn about, I like to learn. I really liked introducing myself and reading other comments to get to know the other kids. I hope this year I might make some new friends.

Math:

This week we started using the program Math-U-See and I am on the Delta level. I worked on learning the formula for the area of a triangle and rectangle. I also worked on multiplication and division. I like learning new techniques and strategies to do math. I like math.  

English/Language Arts:

I worked on my handwriting this week. Currently I am working on cursive and trying to improve it. So one day I'll be able to write some of those beautiful fancy cursive letters. I started reading the "Chronicles of Narnia" for my "Through the Wardrobe class". I am on book one, "The Magicians Nephew" it is a very interesting and exciting book, I love to read. 

Science:

This week for science we talked about vertebrates. They have five classes Fish, Amphibians, Reptiles, Mammals, and Birds. We specifically talked about Mammals we learned that they have four chamber hearts,nurse young,live births,have fur or hair, and they lose their baby teeth. I think science is fun.   

    

Tech:

I am excited I get to start my Digital photography class. I am really excited to learn special ways to take photos. I am going to take lots of photos of my four week old baby brother Griffin. I am excited to post the photos I take in my learning log for other people to see.

Fine Arts:

I have Dance at Utah Dance Artists twice a week and a recital at the end of the year. Dance is one of my favorite sports because it is really fun and i like to try and improve each and every time. I love learning my dance routines for the end of the year recital, I also love getting my costume they are always so sparkling I love to dance.

Fine Arts:

I start choir tomorrow and I am really excited since I have never been part of a choir before. I love to sing and I am excited to learn the music and songs for our Christmas Program.  I think I am a soprano, but I will wait to heart from my teacher to see if that is the section that I get to sing in.
