Week 1 Reflections This week i have learnt some basic algebra and i have also learnt what a haiku is.

What you have learnt is meant to be about 'new learning; rather than just information you discovered. I would like to see you being more specific about what you have learned. How are you going to succeed with your goals? What do you need to do for them to happen?

To win in the Belmont Debating team this year. I will do this by researching a lot and practising a lot. To perform well at the Band festival this term. I will do this by practising my pieces a lot and learning them until I know them almost off by heart. To pass my music exam this year. I will do this by practising my pieces until I am excellent.
