Service Learning Semester Two

Today we read the Lion and the Mouse from Aesop's Fables. I think the big idea of this story is "Appearances", because appearances don't matter, and the smallest things can do the biggest, and greatest things. I think that that is the theme because the small mouse saved the lion from the net.

This story connects with our visit to the Methodist Home, because the residents of the Methodist Home is like the lion, who needs our help and company, and we are the mice giving it to them.

Our class goals for our next visit to the Methodist Home could be:

• To make the residents (of the Methodist Home) happy, and feel welcomed.
• To share our time, and make them feel special.

Non-Fiction Expert Group Presentation Reflection

We have just finished our non-fiction presentations. My group were experts on Germs. Here is our presentation.

The most interesting I learnt about was germ fighting cells and how to keep germs away. An interesting fact I learnt was nose hairs help keep germs away

My job in my group was to make the slides look "nice" and to talk about germ-fighting cells, and what they do.
What I would do differently next time is to look more at the audience, and explain what I'm trying to say more precisely.
I enjoyed making the presentation the best, because we got to do whatever we wanted for making the presentations or poster.
