- On Thursday when all the classes started to come in i was hiding. I kept saying " Hello!!" Over and over again until the exhibition ended. I was nervous and did not know what to do. On Friday i was more confidence because i made no mistakes and not move around I spoke loudly and clearly.
- I was creative because I made a fish for though my group also made a fisher man on the boat and made a small fish that got caught.
- I showed confidence because i was not scared , nervous and shy. Lots of the parents were asking me question and I can not answered there question.
- I learnt that I should not eat fish every day and I will try to eat fish twice a week.

last reflection
On the first day of the exhibition . I enjoyed having the pre-schoolers . I liked presenting our power point to all the class because they were all interested in the shark fin soup part. The KG's were talking when we stopped talking it was a bit annoying .I liked Friday because my parents came and the grade 7's were interested on what we had done .
I learnt that I am better working in a group than alone . I even learnt many new research skills and that if I set myself to accomplish sometimes , then I can really do it. I even learnt that I can do a good power point . I can get some good iformation to.
I was a thinker because I had to think well about the answers the parents asked . I was creative because we made a word sreach in a very creative way . I was caring because when the pre - shoolers came I had to simplify the words and make it more interesting for them by asking more questions to them.
Well , I may use our action ans continue it to save the fish . I would not eat shark fin soup and spread what I have learnt .
The very,very,very END
This is to be the last reflection I will ever do on the Exhibition, in this blog. The Exhibition is over, and I am happy and relieved, yet also a little bit sad...
Well, here we go!
On the day if the Exhibition we were all nervous, awaiting our first glimpse of what we have been waiting for a long time. Everything happened so fast, all our approximately 6 weeks, maybe more,crammed into 2 days. Grade ones to Grade elevens were swarming around us. To me,the younger ones were the hardest to satisfy, having very short attention spans, and hands that wanted to touch everything, while the high-schoolers were sullen, quiet, and sometimes laughing or making a remark about how short we are and that we were doing a fantastic job.
I have learnt a lot about myself within the past weeks, more than I think necessary, actually. I have learnt that my utmost fears are true, that when I am a leader, I force most of the work on myself, as if I do everything perfect, which is definitely not true . I have also learnt that breaks while working our not totally EVIL, as I have always thought. Thankfully, I also learnt a few pleasant things about myself, allthough I am not all to sure of what they are. I think one of them are that I am, " a very loud ad confident speaker," which is what one of the Grade fours told me. This Exhibition has really changed my life, in its small way. It has confirmed, for me, the poster in the library's saying," People are like teabags, you don't know how strong they are until you put them in hot water." The Exhibition was like that except maybe not hot. More like mildly warm, but I think this is a very good metaphor.
Some skills I have used are organisational skills, although there is still a lot more to be desired, for me, in the information. I think I also used conversation, as our group conducted two satisfying interviews with a free-lance writer and a teacher. I think I was also using thinking skills, in the very little time we had to actually sit down, stare into space, and think!
A skill I almost did not use, I am sad to say, is Integrity. I broke a few of my promises and what should have been a fun, interactive model still remains a piece of paper and some gluey cardboard to this very day.
A few questions I want to ask are basically the details; how many sharks get killed a day? Month? Year? Why can't Chinese make a non-wasteful substitute to shark fin? which countries use hand-held sonars?
I have always thought that a research should have an end right after you finish until I came to this school.
And this........................ is the very ,very, very, very ,very ,very END!!!

Pressure, pressure, pressure!
Tomorrow is one of the exhibitions!!!
I am very excited and nervous, although when we practiced with the Grade 4s, it was quite easy to make it interactive, though half the time I could not hear what I was saying. I think each teamate should handle a few people by themselves because I think it makes much more sense when people are coming and going at different times.
