My Evaluation
My Evaluation
What did I learn?
I learnt about plants, how they reproduce, planets and stars, how many stars and planet are there are in the sky. How to add in a faster way, how to divide more faster. More facts in novels and books. We learned different topics for the term-- planet's, social issues (Syrian exodus,the dark side of chocolate, child labour), science, different artwork, experiments ( marbles, bridges, water clock).
Why were you learning that?
We were learning the topics for the term and this will help us know better about our surrounding and about the world we live in. It will help me to be good in research and inquiry and also in presenting my work differently.
What am I pleased about?
I am pleased about my Maths learning decimals, percent and fractions. I learned many strategies to work out word problems. I have made a good improvement in my word problems. I came to know about planets,stars, plants, endangered animals, to be a good friend, how to have good self-esteem, social issues, hands on experiments and different ways of writing and presenting work.
Who helped me in my learning?
Maranita, my parents, and my teacher Mrs Cochrane.
What do I need help with?
I think I need to be more focused on my work and get into my work quickly. I need to do more of my homework and learn more facts.
What do I want to learn next year?
Music and Instruments, more on research and projects, learning languages, more experiments, more of visual art.

Jesse Tree
We are learning about the events and prophecies of the Jesse tree. We looked it up in a website and in groups we are understanding and knowing the meaning of the prophecy and its connection to the coming of Jesus.

Sunday: The Burning Bush
God answers Moses, “I am who I am” (Yahweh). Other meanings of God's answer can be “I come to be all that exists” and “I cause to be all that happens.” God seems to be saying that God will come in his own time and will not be controlled by Moses. God will be who he will be. He came to save the people because it is his choice. “And he said, ‘I will make all my goodness pass before you, and will proclaim before you the name, “The Lord”; and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy'”
Monday: Lamb
Moses gathers the people. He orders that a lamb be sacrificed and the blood of the lamb be put on the doorframes of the houses. This will be a sign to God to “pass over” the houses of the Hebrews. That night the Hebrews eat roasted lamb and unleavened bread, preparing for the journey. Egyptian houses are filled with mourning, “for there was not a house without someone dead” (Exodus 12:30). Pharaoh, finally convinced that he cannot defeat God, lets the people go.
Tuesday: Tablets of the Torah
When Moses and Aaron go up on Mount Sinai, God first reminds them of what he has done for them: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery” (Exodus 20:2). He then tells them what they need to do in order to live in relationship with God and one another. We call these instructions the Ten Commandments.
Wednesday: Ram’s horn Trumpet
Joshua led the Hebrew people from success to success in conquering the land of Canaan. The biblical writer attributes this to his obedience and faithfulness to God. The Canaanite people were defeated, their cities were destroyed, and the spoils of war were offered to God. Like Moses, Joshua was successful until his death, at the age of 110, the same age of Joseph at his death.
Thursday: Clay Water Pitcher
Gideon, a farmer, is threshing his wheat in a winepress so that he can hide it from the Midianites. When God tells him that he will lead the Hebrew people against their enemies, Gideon ridicules the idea. He tells God that God abandoned the people and does not seem prepared to keep his promises. God is not put off; he gives the task to Gideon and promises that he will be with him. Gideon does not think much of God's choice, as his tribe is among the smallest. God, of course, realizes this. God wants to emphasize that when victory comes, it comes from God. The Hebrew people will never win if they depend on themselves.
Friday: Crown
Saul is a member of the tribe of Benjamin, the smallest of the tribes. He is described as handsome and tall, a man of substance. His father, a wealthy man, loses a number of donkeys. Saul goes in search of them but cannot find them. Told of a holy man in a nearby town, Saul goes to see him to ask if he can help Saul find the donkeys. Samuel is in the shrine of the town, conducting the sacrifices. When Samuel sees Saul, he realizes that Saul is the man God has told him about in a dream. God told Samuel that Saul is the man who will help free the people from the Philistines.
Saturday: Shepherd's Crook or Harp
David was a great poet and a person of deep, yet flawed, spirituality. He is credited with a heartfelt song of faith in God for his continued protection (2 Samuel 22). In this song, David describes God as a rock, fortress, deliverer, shield, horn, stronghold, and refuge. God's actions in David's life are like the mighty forces of nature aiding him: breakers surge and floods overwhelm; the earth sways and shakes, trembles and quakes. David's enemies flee and are destroyed, ground into the dust and trampled. God's commitment to David will not end, though David is unfaithful in many ways. God's covenant love is steadfast and enduring.
