Character

A person of good character will look neat and tidy.One measures up to the description of a food character by showing care and concern towards not only yourself but others, behaving well and being open to new ideas.Others say that i am friendly, cheerful, caring and smart(?).I would like to be more focused and on-task.

Communication

I think communication is important as without it, we would have no way of understanding one another.If this happened, the world would become very boring as we cannot share our feelings or thoughts with anyone.My favorite form of communication, is through the phone as you can get an immediate response from the person you are communicating with.Like mentioned earlier, i use the phone if i need an immediate response from the person i am communicating with.But if an immediate response is not that urgent, i would probably text him or her a text message, via instant-messaging platforms or send him/her an e-mail. Sometimes the person who i am trying to communicate with might no be around or might not respond.Another problem that i face is that the person who i am trying to communicate with might speak a foreign language and not understand the language i speak, namely English and Mandarin. Thus we find it hard or almost impossible to understand and communicate with each other.

Amazing Race reflection

I think the school value "Expanding our learning networks" means that we should have a variety of ways that we learn and not only through books and classrooms lessons but also through field-trips and through the internet.This value is important as it will enable us to see/explore the things with our senses in the real world and not only looking at it through pictures on books.We can also have mre hands-on activities too, thus enabling us to learn better.

bridge building activity reflection

I felt excited working on the project.
i think we interacted well as everyone combined our ideas and made a good product.
Although we experienced some arguments, we managed to work together and build it in the end.
I would try and findout everyone's ideas and suggestions before starting on the build as we could no agree on whoes idea to use at first.
