=__5th Grade Wrap- Up__= My favorite civilization Greece. I love it because ever since I was little I have always wanted to learn Greek mythology, I did try but I just could never understand it. Now, I do understand it. What I find interesting about ancient civilizations is, You really don't think if you lived then that would be you. You would live in ancient times. Which is really cool I think they are just like us just in ancient times, personally I think that is really cool. Im doing a lot better in key facts in reading even though there are some really hard words. I got a lot better at note taking from all the practice we have had. I did a lot better at report writing which I think that all the practice will really pay off later in life. I'm not too great at geography but if you give me a map to study I will do a lot better on a test. I can connect information if it was required, but if it wasn't I probably wouldn't use it.

This is a video of a part of the play Odysseus:

=== ===We did a Egyptian research project. It was really easy for me to take notes. I can put my notes together easily because I read very fast. I used my classtime effectiontly because I didn't talk to anyone I just worked. I did get my notes done fast because I read fast and I didn't talk to anyone during the process. I didn't do to well on orginazing my notes. It one of my weakneses in writing. I worked very hard on my first draft so I wouldn't have so many corrections on my final draft, on the whole thing I used all of Mrs. Eitlejorgs suggestions. I used all of those corrections so that my final draft was my best work. I was one of the first one's finished my report on time. I worked a long time o my dress(costume). My creative project was to dress like a preist. My biggest paragraph was about preists. The easiest for me was the writing. It was hardest for me to organize my notes. Next time I have another project I will Take my time in organizing my information. I learned a lot about Egyptian religion from this research paper.===
