Could you imagine if someone said to you,I think we should have Starbucks everyday! That’s a terrible idea!! That’s how we debated at the board of legislature field trip! (we didn’t exactly debate about starbucks but that’s ok!)I’m gonna tell you all about my ideas, debates and what I learned about. And I really hope you like my opinions cause they were sure good! I had lots of fun and I learned so much! 

I had so much fun on the field trip. My favorite parts were speaking into the microphone because it made me feel very professional because we all took turns saying our opinions which mine was VERY important.  Another thing that I liked was hitting the gavel. It was very cool and it made me feel important and that I had a lot of power! The last thing that I really enjoyed is that I got to shake the legislature’s hand which was very pleasing and exciting. It was very nice because when he shook my hand and he said “ you look like a nice smart little girl.” I was super cheerful!!! There were so many great parts and so many learning experiences!!

I learned lots and lots of fun things but my favorite one was learning how all the stuff there in the building worked and how for example when we were in the meeting room and we had to take turns talking discussing our opinions there was even a head of the table which made it even more realistic and much cooler! We also learned how to bang the gavel and what to say if you were on the top chair in the chamber of the legislature’s board room. The last thing that we learned that they do is the names to call people like the chair the clerk and you can also call each other legislature and then their name! I was even like woah this is so cool I feel soooo professional!

I had lots of fun and I learned so much! Do you know your legislature? Have you ever been to your board of legislature building? Well if you haven’t then you should definitely go because it’s worth it! You will learn so much and most importantly you will have lots of fun!

Reading the Weather Reflection

When I was doing research I thought that it was kind of easy. The tricky part was that every different site I went to had the same information as the last site so it was hard to find new information.  It was also confusing on some sentences because there were some words that I did not know and that were tricky to read.

When I was writing my notes there was a lot of hard words to spell and I was not sure where to paragraph on my paper. I had never really known a lot about blizzards so it was hard to understand lots of things and sometimes I was so confused with words I did not even know where to put them in a sentence.

Writing my narrative was pretty easy because I just copied off of my notes. For my narrative everything was going good.  When I noticed that I had way too much writing I knew that was a problem. It was hard deleting half of it because I did not know what parts to keep and what parts to delete.

My script was hard. It was hard because I had to delete a lot. I also had to add a bunch of paragraphs, spaces, and capitals. I could not find all the places that I needed to add paragraphs, spaces, and capitals so I had to keep re-reading it  over and over again.

The rehearsals were not too difficult because I did not take too long to memorize my script but once in a while I would mess up a little or forget a word or two. sometimes when I messed up I started to get nervous that in the presentation I would mess up but after a while I started to get less nervous because I was not messing up as much because I had fully memorized it by then.

At first I was really scared for the presentation because I did not want to mess up and forget everything and then when I walked up everyone stared at me and that made me a little nervous. Later I started talking without messing up and started to feel a little better and a lot less nervous.

Before I felt like our group that we would not get a lot done and that we would laugh during the whole presentation and then we would forget everything and maybe even get in trouble for laughing so much. After I noticed that my group could work hard be serious and try hard when we want to do something we can do it if we try!

My Expert Book: Babysitting

I came up with this idea because I have been babysat my whole life and I thought that from the experience that I see my nanny doing every single day I had already learned from that until I started babysitting for a family and got even more experience. The process was a little bit hard for me because I had to come up with a lot of ideas and I was starting to run out. I think with the chapters after I knew what they were about I got a hang of it and was able to do it easily. The organizing got a little challenging because I did not really know what to put where and started getting a little bit confused. I think my favorite part was the third chapter because, it was really good and I thought a lot of people got inspired by it even though it was the shortest. I feel really good with the final product of my story, I think it was my longest and best story I have wrote in my whole entire life. 

This is my expert book.


Thanks you for reading.
