Johannes’ Blog

This term we are doing an inquiry about China. We have made our own wiki pages and have embedded glogster pages into them to make them look all pretty and flash, you can view my page here. There is a link to glogster here. You will need to register to create a profile and then you can create your glogs. You can also have friends and then you can chat with the friends you have, you can look at other peoples profiles and their glogs, you can embed them into wikispaces and you can even upload your own photos/images. Another site similar to glogster is wix but I have preferred glogster. wix also lets you embed the page you designed into wikispaces but I don’t know much more about wix as I’ve hardly used it.

On Thursday my cousin and his friend came over from Germany. They are 16 and 17 respectively and are staying for half a year and will go to school here at the college. They are year twelves but are finding the work here pretty easy because the evels in germany are quite a bit harder than here which I noticed when Ilast went to germany. I went in to year four and I couldn’t keep up even though I was in year six. They are very big (1.9 metres) and might not be able to get shoes here. I have learnt lots of things from him, I have spent hours on his laptop, he has (and will continue) to improve my german because I speak to him in german and best of all he is very fun to play with.

1. To reach group three in maths.

I have achieved this goal because I have put more effort into my maths.

2. To work on my time management skills.

I have also achieved this because I now get my work handed in on time because I don’t do every thing on the last minute.

1. To make more friends.

I have partly achieved this because I have made a few more friends but they are only half friends.

1. To learn some French and Japanese

I have learnt some French and Japanese but I could have learnt more if I had enjoyed it more.

1. To make my work neater.

I have made my work neater but I hardly need to write in books because we do most of our work on the computer.

1. And most of all to learn something.

I have actually learnt a lot of stuff in maths and computer skills.
