My Mishpacha Project Reflection

We recently finished our Mishpacha Projects in Jewish studies.  It was a fun project to work on.  Our instructions were to write a Canva slideshow answering a few questions about our families.  The Mishpacha project provided me with an opportunity to learn more about my family history.  Interviewed my dad because my mom converted to Mary my dad so she has no Jewish background.  This project was interesting because I could see my family history and what my ancestors did.  Three things I learnt from my family history from the Mishpacha project were:  My great-grandfather was shipped to Canada by British authorities.  My family wanted to live in the US but were forced to live in Canada.  Our family used to speak Polish.  Here is my presentation

My last blog of this school year

Hey everyone,

For my final blog post, I want to reflect on the school year and my experiences. Although I’m not the best in Hebrew, I did enjoy learning כְּרִיה in Hebrew and watching and reading Wonder in English. Thanks to the Wordwalls in כְּרִיה, I improved in Hebrew and enjoyed the 15-20 minutes I had to practice Hebrew words.

S.M.A.R.T. Goals reflection Jeremy

Hello everyone, Mr. Watters told us to reflect on our S.M.A.R.T. goals today.  I said that I wanted to stop getting distracted in class and get better at basketball.  which I did.  For those of you who don’t know S.M.A.R.T. stands for Specific Measurable Achievable Relevant Time-bound.  What this means is that you need to make an achievable goal for example an achievable goal would be something like reading 20 books in 2024.  A non-achievable goal would be something like reading 999,999,999 books in 3 seconds.  I chose my goal because I wanted to get much better at basketball so I could make it to the tournament next year.  I also wanted to stop getting distracted in class because I would always be looking inside my desk then not know what to do.  I still need to work on that goal.  Well, that’s it for today bye.

Public Speaking

Yesterday we did public speaking,  I was very nervous to do public speaking.  I ended up being one of the last ones going (which didn’t help.)  when I was done everyone told me I went way too fast.  My overall thoughts on public speaking aren’t that great I didn’t really like being in the spotlight and it made me nervous.  (that’s one of the reasons I went so fast.)  a lot of people had very good speeches like Eli, and Oren. those two really stood out to me because Eli gave a lot of information and Oren had many jokes and had a great overall speech.  There where also many people who went toon fast, weren’t loud enough,  didn’t have enough information and manu other things.  I’m not just going to say negative things about public speaking.  There are many benefits to public speaking like:  It makes you more confident, It helps you get used to crowds(which is very helpfull) My topic was on sports.  there where many other interesting topics like: COVID 19, Zero, The titanic, polution, and many more.  Overall I think public speaking was a 5/10.  I didn’t like it that much but that’s it. Here is a pictures of me presenting.

הצגרה השלישית של סבה

Today in class we started to learn about the holocaust and we read this story.It’s about a boy who loves to go to his grandparents house and his grandpa has three drawers.  One of them are all the colours to draw for the boy.  The second one has all the grandpa’s childhood toys from when before the germans took him.  The last one is always locked.  The boy always wonders what’s inside of it but he doesn’t know.  His grandpa always keeps it locked.  but one day when his grandpa goes to do something the boy looks down at the drawer to see it’s unlocked.  We stopped right there.  Our assignment is to guess what’s inside.  We already read this book last year so I already know but if I didn’t I would say something holocaust related because in the book they say that the germans took him at a young age.

We are going to learn geometry.

today in class mr. watters announced that we are going to learn geometry.  He told us that for this blog we have to wright about what we think geometry is.  I know that geometry is like defining the area of a 3d shape or the perimiter.  We learnt area and perimiter last year so I hope it’s related to that. I was pretty alright at are and perimiter so I hope I wil be good at geometry.
