Today we did a science experiment, and the experiment was on elephant toothpaste. In my group was Rebecca, Heather, Natalia and Mya and we all discussed what we needed for the experiment. The ingredients we used was food coloring, yeast, hydrogen peroxide and warm water. I really enjoyed learning how to do it, my favorite part was seeing it rise from the cup. I was really excited when we did it because I have never done it. What I would like to improve next time we do this is make it in a bigger cup. I would like to do more experiments in science to learn more about science.
I am a Year 8 student at Glen Innes School in Auckland, New Zealand. I am in Room 8 and my teacher is Ms Ramkolowan.

Reading Acceleration Goal
This is our reading activity that we did today, I really enjoyed doing these activities because it helps me learn new things. It was difficult to because I did not know some of the answers but the easy part was searching that made things more easier, I chose to do these two activity because I wanted to give my opinion on it. In reading I am a 4A and for me to get to a 5A I will need to think harder of the question.

Improving in subjects
In the last few months we have been doing our e-asttle test on reading, maths and writing. I was nervous when we set the test for the maths and reading and writing. As we were setting the test, it was very nervous for me when we started the test.
Firstly reading I know I progressed because I moved from a 4B to a 4A I am really proud of myself. What I need to work on next is to try and get a 5A but if I want to move in a level 5A then I need to read in my own time like at home or at school.
Secondly maths I have a feeling that I have improved a little bit since I moved from a 3P to 4B but I still need to to get to the year 8 standard and I need to learn everything that I need to learn that have something to do about maths. What I think I need to learn next is fractions that is the major issue in my maths and also decimals and percentages.
Lastly writing, I have succeeded in writing because I skipped from 1P to 1A and then to 3B it was a big improvement but there still something that I need to learn so that I can be on a 5A or a 4A. I need to learn how to write an explanation writing and I also need to learn what to write about when I am writing an explanation writing.
And here we have the ending, I have talked about how I improved and what proof I have that I have succeeded in all subjects. I also have talked about what I need to work on next time and what I am going to do in my own ar spare time. Next time I will try to remember what I need to work on these subjects when I have nothing to do at home.
