Learning Dispositions

Last  week on wednesday we had Learning Dispositions On (I'm STUCK)
We split into little groups of 4 or 5 And thought about how we would recover ourselves if we were stuck in a situation, I learnt a lot about how you could recover and am going to use some of the things I heard in situations of my own.
Then we went into a big group and talked through our ideas.
Then went back into the same group as what we started with and had a few questions to answer
(I'm not good at this.)
(This is too hard.)
(I can't make this any better.)
(I made a mistake)
(He's so smart I will never be that smart.)
(I give up!)
We answered all these questions and talk it out in a big group it really helped and I will Definitely use those suggestions when i'm Stuck....
My three strategies are...

  • Think it threw...
  • Use my different qualities......
  • Think back......

Teachers vs Students Netball Match

Today we played the teachers in a game of netball, 
the final score came down to 14-3 to us, 
my partner was our principal Mr Fraser I was playing GA and him GD 
he was very pushy the whole way threw but I enjoyed it so now we have a total 
of 5 trophies altogether including our 2 goaling and 2 championships. 
This was our last game of the season and it came out a cracker one.
