Les Anglais- French project

Bonjour c’est Kitty Stars! 😸😺

Pendant notre cours d’Études Sociales avec Madame Sylvie, nous avons appris beaucoup de faits intéressants au sujet des Premiers Explorateurs.

Hebrew assignment

Hi it’s Kitty Stars!!😺😸 Today I’m going to share a little bit about the hebrew parasha my class is learning now and what I think.

The verse that we learned is from the book of beraysheet chapter 29

The part we learned today was about Leah, Yakov’s wife, had 4 sons: Reuvin, Shimon, Levi & Yeahodah, to get Yakov to like her. The reason she asked god to give her children is because she wanted Yakov to like her, why didn’t he like her? Well, 7 years ago, Yakov wanted to marry Rachel, Leah’s sister,but their father, Laavan didn’t approve and said that in order to marry Rachel he, Yakov would need to work another 7 years. After another 7 years of being a Shepard for Laavan, Laavan said yes! Or so, that’s what Yakov thought, when the wedding day came, Laavan knew he would have to marry his older daughter, Leah first. Thinkink that Yakov wouldn’t relise Leah under the pure white veil, he switched Rachel with Leah without a secound thought. The morning Yakov woke up, he relised Rachel wasn’t there and saw Leah instead, relised he had been tricked, he confronted Laavan. After Laavan told him that he couldn’t marry Rachel until he married Leah, Yakov hated Leah ever since so, When Leah had kids he softened up a bit to her. And that’s the parasha for today!

See you next time! MeowOut!

Scientists in the school

Hi it’s Kitty Stars!! 😺😸

Today I’m going to be talking to you all about Scientists in the school!

Scientists in the school is an activity that our school does. OJCS invites (or sets up a call) scientists to the school with activity kits for the grade and with instructions we create science experiments.The experiment was to figure out the mystery powder was. (Which was later discovered to be flour and baking soda.)

The ingredients we tested on were:

  • Baking soda
  • Flour
  • Epsom salt

We tested the “Mystery powder” with water to test the reaction.

After testing the “Mystery powder” with thr water we tested the reaction with the straaight up powder and water and compaired them to the “mystery poweder”s reaction and we came to a conclusion that it was flour an baking soda.

Hebrew work- first semester

Hi it’s Kitty Stars!!😺😸 At the start of the year (first semester) our hebrew teacher asked us to partner up and make a slide deck of vocabulary words featured in speaking about stores and or buying things so here is a slide of the presentation!

Click here to view!

The reason we did this project is to work on our collaboration skills and partnership.We also did this to practice our store vocabulary.

 

 

Another project our teacher asked us to do was an all about me in hebrew so here is a slide of the presentation!

The reason we did this is for the class to know a little bit more about each other and to practice our hebrew.

 

Thank you!

Wonder book activity- Via journal entry

Hi it’s Kitty Stars!!😸😺

Today I wrote a journal entry in the perspective of Via, a character from the book,Wonder by R.G.palacio: So here it is:

 

Dear Journal, It’s me, Via, Today was rough; First, Grans died and me and mom cried together for a while. After we watched The ghost and Mrs.Muir, our favorite black and white movie, just as I thought we were having some good mother-daughter bonding time, the nurse called mom to tell her Auggie had to be picked up, sigh I guess “Via’s mom” is leaving now, time for “Auggie’s mom” to resume.

 

Second, When auggie came home he had told me that he couldn’t go trick-or-treating because he had nausea (He told me himself) but it dawned on me that this kid,the kid who has had over five surgeries and tons of pain would complain about nausea. He finally blew up and told me why: He said lot’s of the boys in his class including his one-time-but-not-anymore friend Jack Will were saying mean things like, big head or weirdo and obviously that upsets me to hear but me complaining about how mean those kinds of kids are, I didn’t because that would never help poor August. He never told me why he wore his bleeding scream costume instead of the boba fett costume mom took weeks to make, but I just didn’t ask and just assumed that he changed his mind. He was also telling me how much he didn’t want to go back to school and deal with those mean kids, but I told him that if he didn’t want to be treated like a baby with disabilities and the issue of people making fun of him, he would have to go back to school. Mom and dad did say that he could quit school any time but I knew he was liking it so I told him if he didn’t go back to school, I would tell mom and dad the problem about Jack Will and his friends. 

 

Later, after we had the talk-fight about going back to school he snatched his comics- (I took while talking to him so he could pay attention to me instead of reading) -back and stuffed his face back in them. When I was about to leave he said: Hey Via, Miranda called ME she asked if a I was alright and I told her I was fine. I can’t believe you didn’t tell her about me Via! Anyway, I told her I was fine and she told me she loves me like a big sister, ALSO! she told me that you don’t talk anymore! Is that true? Yah…. Auggie. Also one more thing before you go Via! Said August, she told me she loves me like a big sister AND! That she misses you,…. Bye Via! See you at dinner! Bye,…. August. I said and left the room. Flabbergasted!, shocked! Like a big sister, really!?, WOW MIRANDA. After dinner (Mashed potatoes and corn with fish, something August can eat.)  After I kissed auggie and my parents goodnight then headed up to my room and started my nighttime routine. First I started off by showering and brief hydrating skin routine- (Which noeone besides mom and you,Journal)- then pulled out my phone and took some pictures of me in my pj’s with fresh “routined” skin then hoped in the bed and finished the last chapter of War & peace amnd put it away pn my new developing bookshelf in my room beside my bedside table near my closet. I went back on my phone and quickly texted Miranda and I said: I’m sry I’ve haven’t been hanging out with u tlk tmrw?  She quickly replied:😊 Friend again?      And I flushed with happiness just like the emoji, and texted back: Friends again.

 

Sincerely

Public speaking reflection write-up

Hi it’s Kitty Stars!!😸😺

Today I’m writing a short public speaking reflection

 

Process

The process of making (typing it up) the speech was surprisingly easier than I thought. I had not much trouble because I can type at a good pace. That being said, I got it done sooner than later. I think this was one of the more easier things because I have done a lot of things like this. I found after I got started I just kept going and going and going AND GOING. When l I was finished I can tell espcially with something just as inportant as this sometimes writing (typing) is easier than hand-writting it.

 

Planning

The planning was very hard. It was probably the the hardest part of this because I was not aware that this was a time consuming process. In the end it turned out fine but it was difficult. I didn’t know what I was going to do at the stars but eventually I got THE ideas I needed and started on the base of the speech. After the planning on the base of a doc I moved on to writing the official thing. I’m  happy with my planning and the way I managed it was good.

 

First Presentation – class presentation

The First presentation went well even though I was nervous. I was nervous BECAUSE it was my first year of public speaking BUT it turned out just fine. In the end once I got started couldn’t stop! Then finally BAM!! THAT’S IT! IT’S OVER!  I was happy when I finished and even more so, pleased with the results! I think it turned out great!

 

Finals

Unfortunately I did not get into the finals but that’s ok. I know what I could have done and ongoing next year I know now what I can improve(do better next time). Because I learned what I learned and got feedback about what did well and not so well…. But the point is I have the grades that I can improve to move hopefully to the finals. I  have learned many things  and I’m exited to take my knowledge to next years public speaking. I’m now ready to take on next year! In conclusion….

 

Conclusion

I know I didn’t get into the finals but I hold my head high and I am still proud of what I’ve done.  I am happy with what I wrote on the subject\topic I did  and couldn’t  do it any other way. BUT for next year I know what I will improve on and what I will keep the same. The results were exactly what I wanted to happen. I have a lot of pride in what I’ve done and I’m exited to do more next year. Finally I’m happy with the results and exited to do more.
