Snake Massages!

Some people have snakes as pets. And imagine having a massage made by snakes. Well, that is what a salon in Israel does. They offer snake massages! It should help relax and ease their aches and pain. Ara Barak came up with the idea after seeing how relaxed people were after touching her pet snakes. Hopefully, the snakes are not poisonous!

Best Way to Teach!

Friday November 28th, in London, a lucky class got the chance to be taught French by Arsenal's soccer player, Bacary Sagna. He was one of the many players in Arsenal that speak French, so he helped teach the language. But he didn't only teach French, he also taught the kids how to play soccer. Imagine how happy the kids must have been!

The Paper Tower

For advisory, we did a paper tower that should hold fifty grams. During the activity, The Paper Tower, I was a critical thinker because when the tower was falling, I found a way to make it stand. And we all got a good idea at the beginning.
I was an effective communicator because when I got ideas I told them and everyone in my group listened, I got my message through.
Those are the two student outcomes I showed the most during this activity.

Throwing a Coin

He won't be able to play against Newcastle, Arsenal, and Bolton.

3 Student Learning Outcomes

Active Learner: I am an active learner because I speak up and ask questions, clarifications about what we have to do, I do the work well and on time, and I learn and I usually listen to what the teacher says.

Community Contributor: I think I am a community contributor because I help my friends when they need my help, or I bring the stuff if we need any material, and I don't just sit there and do nothing, I help my group.

Problem Solver / Critical Thinker: I am a problem solver because I always find a way to do my work and do it on time, even if I don't find the answer by myself, I ask other people to know, or I ask teachers.

3 Habits

One of the habits I have and I would like to improve is doing more sport. I still do not do enough compared to when I was in France. Maybe I should join an after school activity in which some of my friends are, that it would be fun and good for me. Or instead of playing computer games, sometimes go out and play some basketball. Or maybe in my Google Calendar, everywhere I put free time go out and play.

Another habit that I kind of already have and would like to improve is to try to get less fat. Well I could improve that by doing more sport, eating less pasta when my mother makes them, do not ask for things that contain a lot of fat at the restaurant, or just by stopping to drink sugary drinks. But I don't really know why I am getting fatter, so I cannot make sure I am improving it.

I think I am the last one, always be honest with people I love, but if I am not I would try to tell my parents everything, or never lie to them, well I do not think I ever lied to them. Or I could just tell them when something troubles me, I know that for almost everything that is going wrong with me they can help me, so I should really try to always be honest to them even if I already am always honest with them.
