My Learning Style By Hadas Friedman

         There are three common learning styles: visual, auditory and kinesthetic. each human being has a slightly different mix of those three styles. I am mainly a visual learner, but I also have some of the elements and aspects of an auditory and kinesthetic learner. Being a visual learner means that the preferred and most effective method of studying for them is by visually organising their notes. An Auditory learning style is when students understand the subject material by only listening to audio. Kinesthetic learners learn best by performing physical activities. According to the data collected by the Self Assessment Survey, I scored six points for visual, and four points for both auditory and kinesthetic. I expected the given result with the auditory score, since I don’t remember most of my subjects if I only listen to them. Despite of what was expected, it seemed that I did have a slight cross- over with with all styles. I can remember learning english when I was very young by only watching youtube videos. I was honestly surprised by the low results of the kinesthetic score, because I will usually need to try doing things by myself in order to fully understand them. I was kind of expecting to have a high score on the visual aspect, because I am very fond of art and I love to draw and make clay works. I need to visually organize my notes and make sure everything is in line whenever I write. When I read, I always imagine the scene as a drawing. Now that I fully know what my learning style is, I can finally learn how study more efficiently and be able to prepare better for tests and studies.

Munir Vafai: A Hidden Diamond By Hadas Friedman

           Like a diamond in the rough, Munir Vafai goes mostly unnoticed by most people, including me, because of his calm and quiet nature. But being quiet does not mean that he is not a lively student that loves his friends and studies. He is from South Carolina, born to a family of native English speakers. His entire childhood was spent there: even his first memory is in South Carolina, playing around in his yard. Munir Vafai is a keen student who favors math and English in school, and succeeds in all of his classes. Despite not having a clear vision on what he wants his future to be and still has no idea of how he wants to pursue his career, Munir already knows for sure that he wants to be remembered as a person who worked toward changing the world and making it better. With the help, nourishment, and education of the most important people in his life, his parents, Munir worked hard to become what he is now. The experiences of his life helps polish him to be the humane and kind hearted human being that he is in the past, present, and future.

semester 1 community service

in this semester of the year, I had participated as a volunteer in various events such as the Haloween Spooktacular, and the WBAIS Artisan Event.
in the Haloween Spooktacular, I helped during the noon decorating session, and helped by tying up baloons and other objects to the pillars, carrying objects from place to place, and preparing the minigames.
I came to the Haloween Spooktacular at the evening and when I saw the decorations I put up and showed them to my sister, I felt proud of what I contributed to the event. I even hang out with my friend, Mookie, who is also a volunteer, at the maze and we had a lot of fun together.

in the Artisan Event I volunteered to make sure that everything goes smoothly while the sale is going on. I was to walk around and be there in case anyone needed my help. since everything went smoothly, no one had called me and I had free time to check out the items that were being sold, and even bought two for myself.
this time around, there was no one that I knew who came a volunteer, so I was mostly alone.

The Medieval Race

one month ago, we started a project in history that included making a game about one of the ancient civilizations in the world. I chose to work with Jami and Talia, and we decided to make our game be about medieval Europe. The title of the game was "The Medieval Race", and it is a board game, based on candyland, another popular board game. the main purpose of the game is to cross to the finish line with as much money and experience points as possible. In order to accomplish that, the players must go from one side of the board to the other, while collecting collecting and losing money and picking up cards that tell them what to do: from going forwards or backwards, gaining or losing money, staying in your place, to gaining/ losing EXP.

when we where creating the game, I was responsible for the money design, the contents of the cards and the prototype of the board, Talia was responsible for the design of the board, and Jami was responsible for the instructions.

My thoughts about the final product are that I think that the game turned out pretty well, despite some trouble we ran into. I think that while the game was a bit rough around the edges and not perfect, it still was fairly enjoyable, and from what I've heard most people who played it enjoyed the game.        

end of the year math blog

1. What was the most challenging experience for you?
2. Explain your goals for next school year (this summer if applicable) and your plan to reach these goals.
3. Describe what are you most proud of in math this year.

In this year in math, I had many challenging experiences, but also moments that I'm proud of and goals for the new year.

One of my many difficulties with math is the fact that I do a lot of small and seemingly insignificant mistakes on my tests, but they take down a big chunk of my grade in the end.

I am very proud of my Honor Roll this year, and the fact that I almost never missed an homework assignment.  

My goals for the next year are to be more organized, and to study more for my tests so I won't get so many small mistakes on my tests.

  

  

my bonding comic

● What did I already know before the experience?
Before the experience I already knew about ionic and covenant bondings.
● What challenges did I encounter, and how did I deal with them? Give specific examples and dealings.
The challenge I encountered was that I didn't know at first how to do a drawing that will accurately represent the scenario, so I just sketched out a  bunch of possibilities.
● Was I successful in completing the activity the way I envisioned it? Why or why not?
yes, I think I was successful, because not only I got to practice on my art skills, I also learned more about covalent and ionic bondings.

What sport is on the graph?

You I think that the sport shown on the graph is 100- yard dash because you speed up for a short distance like in the graph, and then you slow down really fast and stop.

Interviewee 1 Drag- racing, because they start slowly, and then they stop suddenly because of the Parra shot. (Theo)

Interviewee 2 Golf, because at the begging the ball flies fast in the air, then goes at a constant speed, starts slowing down, rolls & goes on the floor in a constant speed, and then stops. (Nathan)

You again Hahahaha nope. Still the same.
