The Paper Menagerie
I am very proud of this assignment because it helped me remember what is important in my life to help me succeed. It has motivated me to stay positive and focused. I can always look back at this assignment and remind myself about the things that make me proud and happy.
This assignment helped me improve my writing and social skills. I had to interview a person who remembered 9/11. I learned how to gather information and take notes to put my story together. This assignment also helped me understand how important it is to stay together in times of need.
This is my favorite assignment because it was a fun assignment to work on. I had to research what my Chinese zodiac is and I found that I am in the year of the Pig. I also found some interesting personality traits about my zodiac.

Reflection
During my 8th grade year of remote learning, school has been a challenge for me but it has also been a learning experience. This challenged me to work harder and put more effort into my work to be able to maintain good grades. I enjoyed most of the assignments but my favorite one was "The Paper Menagerie activity 1". Some of the challenges I had were learning how to cope with virtual learning and getting used to it. My improvements include being able to do my assignments through Google slides and Google docs and develop my writing and reading skills.
Below are some of the books I read this year.

My 8th grade year at Patrick Henry was challenging but a learning experience because I learned how to navigate through Google classroom and Schoology. I learned that math will help me through my high school years and in life. I found the math we learned this year to be very fun and interesting. I appreciate math because it is something that we use everyday.

This project was during the fall semester and we learned how to divide fractions. This assignment was very helpful because we use fractions every day. We use fractions to determine a discount, telling time and finding what portion of a whole you need.
This assignment helped me improve as a student by teaching me the rules and steps when working with expressions and equations. It helped prepare me for high school math.
This assignment was my favorite because I had to solve all of the math problems in order to solve the math puzzle. It was fun to work on and it motived me to continue to work hard.

I am proud of this assignment because I worked very hard to receive an A+. My teacher gave me extra credit points for turning it in early and writing more information than I had to. I was the first one in my class to finish this assignment.
This assignment helped me improve by further developing my researching skills. I had to research how Charles Darwin proposed that species arise through a process called natural selection.
This assignment is my favorite because it helped me understand how humans negatively impact the environment. I learned the importance of recycling and how humans must work together to keep our environment clean and healthy.
