Topic 2 ( Karyn )

The one goal that I have set for myself is to do well for my End-Of-Year Examinations and try to improve on my weaker subject .

During the first semester , I did not do quite well for it because I did not prepare well for it and I prepare at the last time . I regret doing so . But , I had paid attention during class .

From then on , I prepare quite a few days ago . I look through the worksheets which my teacher had given to me as well as the textbook . And I spent more time on that subject . As for the coming subjects , I work very hard for it and I score quite well then before . I did not regret doing all those preparations .

Topic 1 ( Karyn )

During this semester , I have learnt a lot of new stuffs and four new subjects were introduced to me . They are Home Economics , Geography , History and Design and Technology . These subjects are all new to me as I do not study all these in my primary school . I felt scared at that time because its new to me and I fear that I would score badly for it .

But , as months went by , I realised I did quite well for all the subjects but I like History the most . It was because the teacher was funny most of the time and serious at all time . She explains to us clearly and I do understand well .

Home Econs was another my liking because I enjoyed cooking and I seldom cooked at home and thus it is a good experience for me . And I learnt to cooperate with my partner too .

Topic 1



In this semester , new subjects are thought to us , such as History , Design & technology . First , I will worry about not being able to cope with so many subjects because on top of this 2 subjects , I still have Geography , Food & nutrition , English , Maths and Science . A total of 7 subjects !



I enjoyed History lessons the most , beacause our teacher-in-charge is very friendly to all of us . She tries to make lessons interesting by stating examples that happened in life or that she has experienced . She makes sure that we really understand the topic before she moves on and that all of us did our homework .



The next lesson that I enjoy was F&N , also known as Food & Nutrition . I am interested in this subjects because I can learn how to cook healthily . Since I was young , my mother didn't allow me to cook , but I was very interested in cooking and now I get to learn about cooking !



I'll strive to get good grades for my all my subjects , be it like or dislike . :D



Topic 2



From the beggining of the year , the goal I set for myself was to do my best . I would try my best to focus in the subject when I'm revising .



But during the year , I was hooked onto computer games , online chatting , sms-ing and spending time out with my friends . Therefore , causing my results to slipped . But group works pulled up my overall marks . Though I passed , I'm not very satisfied , because I know if there isn't any group works I will fail badly .



I regretted not studying hard enough for all my common tests and exams . Although I know that that's how far I can go , I knew I would've done better if I were to study harder .



Topic 3

I would prefer to do group projects because my group members can share their ideas and each of them has their own role for the project , so that one's workload will not be too much . During group works , the friendship between members gets better and they get to know each other more .

61Whereas , indivual work would be more difficult as one must do all the things alone . It's tougher than doing in groups because in times we may run out of ideas or when we make a mistake , there's no one to tell you .

I feel that most of us will be more into doing the project if it is done in groups . Therefore , more projects should be done in groups , so that this will make students more spontaneous during lesson time .

Topic 4


The biggest mistake I made was to do badly for my exams , both Mid-year and End-of-year . Although I know it's over , I can't help but be sad about it . Evertime I would tell myself , " I must do better for the next exam or class test , " but I still failed to do that .

Of course , I got a scolding from my parents . I know it's because they care , but I can't help but answered back sometimes because I know this is how much I can go for now . Still , I would apologise to them later .

I guess I must really do better . Because of the high hopes my parents carry , I've disappoint them time and again and I don't want to do that again !

Topic 5

I will strive to get better results ! And do assesments that are given by my subject teachers . I'll try to focus more in class and ask the teacher if I'm not sure about anything .

I'm going to find time for a day to study in groups with my friends and help each other with the things we're not very strong at . And will not do last minute revisions or homeworks .

I'll try to lessen my time on the computer and television , unless needed for any study uses , so that I can have more time doing my homework . I'll get ready for a new year in secondary 2 and do well in my studies !

Topic 2 ( Atika )

The goal I’ve set for myself in September is to achieve good grades for my End-of-year examination. The steps I have taken to achieve the goal I’ve set was to reduce spending time chatting online with my friends, talking on the phone till late nights and other routines that I used to do .

Other than that, I tried to catch up on the subjects I have been doing badly since the past semester such as Mathematics, Science& English. I paid more attention in class and also tried not to fallen asleep while teacher was teaching. I regretted studying last minute, even though I knew the consequences.

Since I think it was still not enough, I tried to have study groups with my friends from other schools and asked what their teacher taught them in class. I believe that different teachers have different way of teaching, so I guess this might be one of the ways to widen my thinking of a particular topic. I set targets for myself too, like having B for English, C for Science and same goes to the other subject.

Topic 1 ( Atika )

I've learnt a lot of things during this semester and one of them is , learning how to cook in the right way and it was part of the subject called Home economics or , Food and Nutrition . I never tried cooking at home before , and that was the reason why I got low marks for the subject but it was a great experience to cook with your friends , and the ability to know , what is your strength and weakness in cooking . After few lessons , I tried to improve my cooking , and i should say , I'm proud with my cooking . Even though it was not satisfying enough , at least I improved .

Apart from Home economics , Design and Technology was also one of the new things i learn , but it was being taught to me during semester one . I should say , i prefer Design and Technology more than Home economics . In Design and Technology , I can design something using my imagination , and make it as an object . I was happy to know I got an A2 for it , and I realized , my strength is in Design and Technology and i hope i can took it as one of subject when i reach Secondary three in one year time .

Topic 4

For the past semester,i've been through a hard time mainly on my studies and also projects.There was once that the secondary ones students was told to do a project on egg drop.

The egg drop competition was to prevent eggs from breaking.And my group failed to prevent the egg from breaking.we were quite upset as we have put in a lot of hardwork in it.But it was part of competition.One time,i received a very bad grade for my maths subject.And i knew it was my mistake for having last minute revision.

From there onwards, it have thought me a great lesson on not having to do things late.It really change me and i have started to revise earlier before exams.

For the next semester,i would like to upgrade myself on the subjects which i am weak in.And i will try to get help from people which are good then me.
