Exhibition at last!!!!

 Exhibition is in three days and my Class is very Excited about it. Weve decided how were going to Present what weve done for Exhibition, But were in the process of making props and Decorating our hallway. We came up with different decorations for each event that we attended and every activity / action that we decided to do to help people. 

Mrs.Hicks has plenty of Ideas of what we should have did and should do for everything, But I like that she's just leading the way as out Tour Guide of Exhibition. I still think that she likes what weve came up with overall.

Exhibition Reflection

Were mainly almost done with Exhibition because it is next week but we still have to hold our Talent Show Tommorrow and make up plays for Dislexia, ADD, and ADHD. The main reason why I'm so excited about the Talent Show is because I'm one of the fifteen contestants in the Talent Show. I can't stop thinking about it. We've been working on Exhibition everyday for so long. Now it's finally over!! I not happy about it being over but I'm happy about showing my school Teacher's, Parents, and Children. My Teacher has been teaching us lots of stuff about different causes. I'm thankful that I have a teacher that likes to help me accomplish my Education goals. I'm also really thankful to be able to experience Exhibition as a once in a lifetime chance.

Exhibition Reflection

Before we started Exhibition I thought it was a project that was assigned to us by my teacher (Mrs.Hicks). But now that we’ve dissected the Theme of Exhibition Who We Are.
First we dissected the descriptor The Nature of the Self and I learned that when some Music Artists like Kesha, Beyonce, and Katy Perry create songs, they sometimes have to do with people believing and finding the true meaning of themselves.
After the first descriptor we moved onto the second descriptor which was Beliefs and Values. We got into groups and discussed what our individual Beliefs and Values were then we made videos out of our discussions. For this Descriptor I learned that we all have different beliefs and Values but that’s normal.
The next Descriptor was about Personal, Physical, Mental, Social, and Spiritual health. During this discussion we created concept Maps about the different health’s. When we discussed them I noticed that we all believe in different things and all have certain points of views about things.
Then, we started to talk about what Family, Communities, and Friend are and mean to you. For this descriptor we decided to create a product on Family, Communities, and Friends. I created a Blog (www.samerialwhoweare.blogspot.com) and uploaded pictures. In this activity I learned that everyone thinks of things different, but overall they can possibly come out with the same outcomes of something’s.
When we made it to the middle of Exhibition, We looked back at our Artifact Bags and started to think about Cultures. For this activity we brought in items that represented our Cultures such as foods, clothing and musical items. I brought a Bible that came from my Great Grandparents and other Items. While doing this activity, I learned that some people might have the same ethnic background and might not even know it.
Over all I learned a lot about Exhibition and I think that it’s going to come out to be a big Surprise. But I do think that everyone is going to put forth their full effort to help make it how it’s supposed to be.

Where were at in Exhibition

Today for Exhibition we typed up a Reflection about the descriptors for The Theme of Exhibition which is Who We Are. My Reflection had to do alot with the activities that had to do with the Descriptor  of The Theme. It also had alot of Reclection on what I've learned about Exhibition and what I thought it was at first.

At first I thought that Exhibition was a  Project that was assigned by my teacher and could either be done by A Class, a Pair or An Individual. But now I know that Exhibition is not a Project and you never know what your going to do.
