WEEK 18 DAY 1

Today, Mr. Rick explained to us about completing our portfolio/blog. He said that everyone should have done this in the beginning of term 4. Many of the students have not completed their portfolio/blog or worse have not even started to make one. In the previous semester students were asked to make a portfolio with their groups , but many of the groups disappointed Mr.Rick because of the poor work that was submitted. So in this semester Mr. Rick decided to have each group make a blog, but sadly, many still did not do what was told. This leads to making it hard for Mr Rick to grade our reports and daily notes because many could not show it to him through blog or portfolio. We hope that in the coming academic year, we can do better and present better than we did this academic year.

These few meetings of history class, Mr Rick who is our history teacher teaches us how to write properly in a history exam. So today , we  finished a writing practice about "Hitler's responses to the effect of the Treaty of Versailles in the 1930s, and where they effective?"

It was a fun experience to write in an exact format that we should follow. [We are told to do exactly like this format (http://goo.gl/pJO9qt). ] It was hard at first to write in such an amazing and big format. Many of us still could not master this type of writing , but we are slowly and surely moving forward, we are improving as everyday passes.
