Prototec






Today I sat a stage 7 sheet prototec. My results were good as I received the whopping percentage of 95%. Everything was 10 out of 10 except for my Fractions and Percentages. I really do think that my weak area is Fractions and Percentages so to get rid of it I will practice consistently until I have got the hang of it. I really enjoyed doing this and next time my goal is to reach 100% or at least 99%.

Cinquain Poem




Yesterday I was given a task of writing a cinquain poem. I decided to write about Music because it is what I tend to usually listen to when I'm bored. While I was writing it I was struggling a bit trying to find expensive words but I believe I did a decent job. I really enjoyed creating this poem and I will definitely be looking forward to writing different styles of poetry.
