REFLECTIONS
What was your favorite part of this year? This could be about an assignment, a teacher, or a school experience.
My favorite part of this year is probably trying to learn a new language ( French) even when it was hard it was pretty fun. I really like all my teachers, and even if we didn't get to learn in person this year wasn’t so bad.
