At first, the problems that I thought that is regarding the different opinions that lead to arguments but worries are unfolded as every of our group members work together with harmony and work seriously together . Project-type assessment is more interesting as it can use many creative ideas. For example “island of the blue dolphin” we put up a diskette that contains our sound recording and we think that it is a very good idea. Every one of us carries out a different role and draw out attractive drawings to make our work the best one. I think that project-work assessment is better as it makes us more interested in the subject that we dislike. In the other hand, it could make our group could communicate better. We could also accumulate more experience and make our future project better. I hope I could have more of those project-type assessments in the future.

I had set a target for myself in my poor subject, English. I had read more English books I had brought during silent-reading period and to pay more attention during English lesson and to hand in my work in time. I think that I should control well in my Chinese as well in English. Sometimes, I would use my speaking in Chinese to form a sentence in English in the wrong way. My weakness in English is verb which I should pay more attention. And I think I should pay more attention to my verb and weakness that I know and work towards it and not in others I would still work hard to my goal and try to achieve for better results. In the second semester, I would work toward my goal by reading newspaper and learning more of their sentence making and so to achieve better results. One thing that I had improved is Chinese as I had read newspaper and more creative sentence to make my composition more interesting.

In this semester, I think that group work had enabled us to communicate well and better understanding in each other. What I had discovered is also that I could speak more in freedom with my group members and that makes our project better. I think that that this is a very challenging year for me as it needs a lot of hard work to strive for better grades. Saying about talent, the only thing that I like is music and I think that I can develop my interest in this. Although it can’t help me in my work, but it helps to relieve stress during my examinations. I think that 1d is really a great class for learning and developing interest in subject that once that I think that I dislike. I had learned to exposed to public and present our group work well and to work together as a group in harmony. Though our opinions are different, we learned to make use of every opinion in great use and rest, as reference. We would take turns to act as different roles and so, to do every role well. I had learned a lot.

5. Based on your answer to the question above, how do you wish to grow/change as a student/person second semester? What steps do you have to take to achieve that growth?

- I wish to become a person that can honor my parents and to respect peoples choice, as now i'm quite pissed off by my parents nagging and i know i would one day overcome that and to respect and honor them the right way. I tired to tell them my reasons for doing what so ever, but i think we just need a little more time. And i would like to change my character of not being so selfish and only thinking about my ownself. As for to be a good student and get good grades for my parents to see and to let them know that i can do the right things at the right time.I would really really want my parents to know more about me and to put themselves in my shoe. I would have to be patient with them and explain to them whats going on. I really hope that it will happen and i will become a understanding person. And to understand my friends more then now.

4. Think back to a time over the past semester when you faced a challenge or a big mistake. ( a bad grade on something, letting your benchmarks pile up until the last minute, etc.) What sorts of lessons did you learn about yourself from that challenge and/or mistake? How did this influence the way you did things after that moment? In what ways does this experience help you to plan for next semester?

- I faced a challenge and that is to over come my fear of speaking in public. I've decided that speaking in public is a very important thing, like when being the leader you got to speak up. I've learnt that not being able to speak up is a scary thing, thats what i think. I have experience that type of feeling before example like when its your turn to talk and everyone is staring at you. After that first encounter, i have known that the feeling is not so bad. So now im trying to speak up whenever i can. And its been going well.I have been brave enough to tell my parents that what i do there is always a reason to it and i can explain to them why i did that and it made my life better since i started to speak up. This experience can help me with my projects that i can present.

5) Based on your answers to the questions above, how do you wish to grow/change as a student/person for second semester? What steps do you have to take to achieve that growth?

Bases on my questions above, I have thought about it and realize that there is a lot for me to change and improve on. From a lazy and childish person, I wish to change into a mature and hardworking person.
In order to score excellence result in my exam, I will give the teacher my full attention when the lesson is going on and not sitting on my seat daydreaming. I will clarify my work with the teachers if I had any doubts on it and whenever the teacher gives up homework, I will take it seriously and put all my efforts in. In the past I use to prepare my exam in the eleventh hour but from now on, whenever I came back school, I will spend my time to summaries what the teachers had teaches us. As I knew I was very weak in my science, I will buy some assement books to do but I know that just doing assement books is not enough, the most important is that I have to understand the topic well.
I did not do well in my studies this year and I did not get into my ideal class. I was quite disappointed but I believe that if I work hard, I will definitely achieve and I will do my best.
