The Giant Swing
My stomach clenched in my mouth, as I got suspended up high in the air. Without a warning or any type of communication I was choked, my face blew like a balloon and fell into a deep Scarlett red.
Trembling with fear, the silence begins to break and I hear a deafening countdown 3, 2, 1 swing, the rope gets pulled from my harness and instant relieve fuels my body. I shoot up into the sky like a rocket getting launched into space!
As I swiftly swing back and forth like a paint brush painting a wall, I look at my surroundings and I fell like I am at the top of a massive mountain. My legs dangle beneath me and my head forms a pale white as I come to a final stop.
I reach for the ladder and Jacob removes the clips from my harness and I climb down the steady silver ladder. I finally touch the ground and rush over to safety, panting like a dog I was glad it was finally over.


I think I have shown the goal of using different ways to plan by switching up what I am used to and doing something different. I also think I have worked on using more complex and varied sentences in my writing.

Term: 1 Week: 10/11
Some work I am proud of… During weeks 10/11 I am proud of my inquiry because with my group we had persevered especially when we didn't know what to do. Also with inquiry I'm proud of what we have accomplished with our final outcome.
Here is my Personal Inquiry … For my inquiry my group and I did a volcano that exploded facts about our big question we were researching and we also made a newspaper all about rocks and were they are made from.
Reflecting on my Inquiry, I have … Think I have done well with participating in my group and focusing on my work and what I need to do during our time that we had for each inquiry session. I think I need to work on I am doing everything that we need to do not making everyone do one thing, make sure that everyone does everything.
Here is my Passion Project … I think that I did well with getting all thehot gluing and getting all the props that we needed for our project to make it look like a realistic jungle with clay.
Reflecting on my Passion Project, I have … I liked the way that we both tried to make our clay animals really detailed because it would look so much better in our jungle scene we were making.
Reflecting on my term, I have … I think during the term I have showed most of our school values everyday. I also think I did well this term with showing quality in all my work I completed. I think I need to work on taking more oppotunitys in school.
