Quick-write best meal
My favourite meal is chicken with rice, I'm not a big fun of rice but if you mix it with chicken then it taste like heaven, just walking into a room and taking a Whiff of chicken then that's all I can smell for a bit, the taste is Crunchy, a little bit oily that's all I got on explaining this.
What is your imaginary Eden?
One place that I feel most happy and confident is when I'm on the basketball court.Its just a different feeling than most things I like. I guess it's just the passion And the love I have for the game.During the weekends the first thing I do or my day just doesn't feel right is when I wake up I have to go to the gym and start of my day with playing some basketball, that's a start of a good day for me.

Mid semester reflection part 1
1.things that went well in the six word memoir, it wasn't hard picking images for the memoirs also having to write 100 words on each image wasn't very challenging because it brings memories if it was an image of yourself but it wasn't easy at the same time if the image wasn't about you.i didn't add much style,font into the pictures which I could have done better, I learned that I as a writer need to think thrue what I'm gonna write before I write it so I don have to change up about what I'm gonna write when I'm writing it.

Skype Reflection
My group presented an example of a "six word memoir" using an exclamation point (!) we tried to make our example funny and about a topic that they would find interesting so that they would like it more and it would be more memorable. i also used a funny picture and told them the story of how i got the picture.
My mini lesson wasn't that good i believe because it was made even more mini by our connections being interrupted. i am not sure how much they liked it but hopefully they did
this taught me that it takes lots of preparation and practice to be a good teacher, you have to be fun to keep the kids attention but at the same time teach them the info that you want them to learn, which as anyone may have guessed is very difficult
next time we Skype their class we should do something more interactive, maybe a game of some sort to get more people involved.
