Entry 8: Review of T1 Target-Setting Exercise

The purpose of setting targets is to reach our goal of higher marks and i think it is useful because it sets a goal which makes me strive harder.Normally,i would set my target depending on how strong i am in that subject and i would do twice my normal homework and my plan is to remeber as much facts as i can.my parents are helping me by teaching me as much as they know and providing useful tips.I would try to think of the things my parents would reward me with and that might motivate me a bit.I think they can help me achieve that by teaching us more useful facts.

Entry 7: Festivals in Singapore

I celebrate Easter and Good Friday because i am a catholic and i celebrate it by praying and going to church to do religious stuff.The few festivals i know are,Thaipusam and Deepavali and the Indians celebrate them because they pray to their gods.I think it does knowing each others festivals can help us to be more tolerant towards each other.In my opinion,we can develop stronger bonds by being friends with other races.

Entry 6: March Term Break

I think the school gets us to do silent reading in the morning because they want us to enjoy the book and inculcate good reading habits.I like it as normally i cannot concentrate on the book if there is too much noise and only during silent reading time and recess time i get to read my book and since there are teachers around to keep the pupils silent i can read quietly and i like reading as i can learn alot of new words and phrases.Normally, i would read books about facts and fiction and i think it will help me with my school work as it can help me in various subjects which use english.The school can encourage pupils to read more by holding a programme on reading more books and ''telling'' them that reading is fun.I would suggest a series of scientific books titled ''Horrible Science'',the author is Nick Arnold and i like his books because they are full of facts.

Entry 5: Activities Outside School

I am involved in church lessons on Saturdays only and normally spend about an hour in the church.I am involved in this activity because i am a catholic and i think this helps me because it helps me learn more about my religion.It does not affect my studies as i always finish them before i go for these lessons.I do not feel stressed because i find it very interesting and they give us very little home work so it does not intervene with
my time table.I think people should be involved in outside school activities because they should know what is going on in the outside world.
