Welcome to St Mary's Campus, Semester 2 2011.During your time @ St Mary's you will have a range of tasks to complete as part of the Wikispaces assessment task.In order to make things happen!! I ask that each individual 9 BROWN class member create their own page in the 'SMC Reflections page' and put your name to it.When you have created this page can you please copy and paste the following questions on to your page.We will discuss this further in terms of expectations etc during class. I will also issue you a Wiki rubric that will further outline the expectations. Please note the following Reflections and Discussion Posts need to be completed by FRIDAY 23rd SEPTEMBER. We will continue to use the Wiki beyond this date as a communication tool.Regards Ms Kays Each student will build their own page for the purposes of Reflection. This is because when two students are using the same page at the same time the page will not save properly. Each week for 10 weeks you will need to write a reflection about your experiences and opinions about the topic. Each reflection is expected to at least 200 words in length.The topic or questions you are asked to reflect on are listed below. Copy these questions to your individual reflection page. Thank you = Week 1 = What is the best piece of advice you have ever received? My best piece of advise came from my best friend Ben Rose (back in year 8) he told be never to give up, at anything just keep going no matter what happens, and he told me never let anyone stand in your way of achieving your goals. Never let people put you down because as long as you believe and have some self confidence in yourself. What would happen if you threw a piece of rubish on the ground? What if everyone did? If I threw a piece of trash on the ground I might have gone insane because if everyone throws a piece of paper/ rubbish onto the ground it will most likely be blown into the ocean and animals will probably eat the litter thinking its an animal, or if it’s not degradable it wont break up and it would stay on this earth for many years to come. If I threw a piece of rubbish on the ground I probably couldn’t forgive my self because I’d now deep down that rubbish could have killed an animal. What would you do if you saw a friend cheating - report it, confront the friend or nothing - and why?What do you think courage means?What do you think makes a good friend? Depending on what friend it is I’d probably not tell only because if those friends mean a lot to me I’d defiantly not tell anyone because friendship to me is we don’t tell on one another and that we trust each other and if you can’t do that with your friends then I would say your relationship with your friends is not very good. I think courage means to have courage is to stand up for and what you believe in. Something deep down that gives you a morale boost. Something that gives the feeling deep down that you can do it and to give you the energy boost you need to make it. A good friend is a friend who is always there for you, someone that you can tell anything to without her/him telling anyone. A best friend / friend are someone that look after each other, look out for one another. If the friend is upset and needs someone to talk to a good friend would always be there.

What is your most indispensable possession and why? My most prize possession would have to be my DVD collection because i love to watch DVD’s i also but TV seasons .These would be my most precious possession due to the fact I love to come home after a hard day and just watch DVD after DVD, it just relaxes me. What do you think about people polluting the environment? If i was to meet a person whom polluted i would confront them and ask them why they do it? Why can’t the person in question stop it? Really to me it makes me mad were all trying to do something about pollution levels on the planet and this person polluting it just enrages me and makes me think it’s all a waste of my time.

I wish there was a law that said... This would be a good law because...
 * Week 7 **

If there was going to be a law (for me) it would have to be that we can start to drive at the age of 15............i chose this because i think it would give some kids the responsibility of being on the road and also i like playing all those driving games i would think it would be cool to be driving at my age.

When you are angry, how do you look? When are you happiest? When have you felt lonely? When do you feel proud? Angry, WOW that doesn’t happen too often (ha) but i don’t really look like anything just really annoyed clenched fists umm that’s probably about it. I’m happiest when i come into school and get to see a certain person in the class, because they just make me smile, laugh and just have a good time! Which quality do you dislike most about yourself - laziness, selfishness, childishness - and why?
 * Week 8 **
 * Week 9 **

I really have 2 qualities about myself one of them is laziness. Lately i have become very lazy leaving my work till last minute, don’t answer any questions in class and many other things that I’m really starting to hate because i never used to do that i did the first night and got rid of it or i would answer the teachers questions. My second bad quality i have is that recently i have been keeping things to myself and I’m not speaking to anyone about any issue that might arise and i think it is alright not to talk to anyone about it and then I’ll just listen to my music and just pretend the outside world doesn’t exist. I HATE IT! Before i got out of the house everyday basically and now i would be lucky to leave once a month that’s when my laziness kicks in. Why do you think prejudice exists in the world?
 * Week 10 **

I think everything is here for a purpose and prejudice has its own purpose as well.
