My Learning StylesMy strongest learning style is: naturalistic and intrapersonalNaturalistic means I learn most effectively when the subject involves collecting and analyzing something that has to do with nature.Interpersonal means that I am highly self aware and capable of understanding my own emotions, goals, and motivations.

Spelling

What I can do now:1. Write a story that is about a medieval quest which has the parts(1 description of the characters and the assignment from the king 2 obstacles 3 the big battle 4 the happy ending.2. Put a lot of good adjectives into my writing.

My next steps:1. Describing the setting better by telling the weather the day and the feelings in the scene.2. Making my adjectives bigger than just little quick and easy ones.

My next steps:1. Always putting the question in the answer all of the time.2. Always drawing the illustrations instead of taking them off the computer.

What I can do now:1. Make most post-tests an improvement from my pre-tests.2. Learn and use the mean, median, mode, and range.

My next steps:1. Making my post-tests always improvements from my pre-tests.2. Double check my answers when I use the mean, median, mode, and range so I don’t make any mistakes.

Science

What I can do now:1. Figure out which bar makes the highest and which bar makes the lowest vibrations on the kalimba.2. Understand that sound vibrations travel through solids liquids and air.

My next steps:1. Including more information about the kalimba than just which bar makes the highest and lowest vibrations.2. Experimenting with different solids and different liquids.

Social Studies

My next steps:1. Adding more ideas for the advantages and disadvantages.2. Completing two topics instead of just one topic.

My next steps:1. Making more slides faster and practicing presenting my podcast so I don’t make a mistake.2. Adding more music instead of just one song being repeated over and over again.

My Quarter 4 goals

My Goals for Quarter 4 are:

Teacher Comment

Kevin has mirrored his previous quarter in many ways: Math remains strong, work attitude, difficulty concentrating, etc. It was great see him present his Indigenous Peoples Project to the class with surprising confidence, create an effective Medieval Podcast during Technology, and a significant Quest Story I hope he shares with you once published.He occasionally remembers his organization goals and works to keep his desk in order. All in all, an improvement again.Good job Kevin.
