Dear Term 1 Me

In Term 1, we wrote a letter to our Term 4 future selves listing goals we want to achieve by the time we re-open that letter in Term 4. We opened that letter today and responded with whether we achieved those goals, and our other achievements this year! Below is the reply I wrote:

L1: To reflect on personal goals set in term 1

Dear Term 1 me,

What a journey it’s been! Three terms have gone by so fast, and it’s unfortunate that this term is going to be my last… But lets not drown ourselves in negativity, you have been an awesome presenter this year! - and fantastic leader might I add. You have accomplished more than you had wanted and ever thought you could! Before I gloat, you’re still working on fractions unfortunately, but you’re getting there. Slowly, but eventually, you will master this! You started using a thesaurus but got slack half way through the year, but your vocabulary has improved a lot since the beginning of the year; it shows in your writing sample. You have memorised your 12x12 and 12x11 multiplication, I don’t even remember how you got confused with these now. You have been reading a lot this year and have gained a new favourite book thanks to fine - Red Queen. You're still waiting for the second book. The highlights of this year has to be our writing improvements, speech contest, and camp. You had gone from a level 4a to 6b! The highest score in PBS, alongside fine. You also came second in the speech competition which was more than amazing! It was even more special that you went through it with a bestie! Camp was an unforgettable experience and we can't wait until our next! Prize giving is coming up and it looks promising, also graduation and college is something to look forward to. That’s all for now, until next time xox

From, Term 4 you <3
