At math I was in the pit because I did a two prove it's in 40 minutes.

How did you feel when you were in the pit?  
Challenged flustered stressed because I didn't know if I should practice on study ladder or just prove it.

What did you do to work out of the pit?
Take small steps and practice then take another step and soon you will be out. 

Feedback:It looks like you have a clear understanding of how it feels to be in the learning pit and how it feels to be at the top of the pit, great work.  I think I really like about your post is when you were explaining how you could work out of the pit, especial the bit when you said " then take another step and soon you will be out" because that is very positive for people the think they can't get out. You are a great role model for others Mitchell!
Feedfoward:Maybe you could put the definition for the words you use to describe how you feel for example people might wonder what flustered means so you could put what it means at the bottom of your post.

Teo Reo Maori Poster

WALT: communicate a message.

Description: We have been participating in 3 different workshops around colour, compositions and fonts.  We put these skills to use in a poster sharing our knowledge about Te Reo Maori.
Why? We have noticed that our posters are too cluttered and do not communicate a  message well.

Criteria:
Message: My message is clear and purposeful.  Everything that is on my poster relates to my message. 

Composition:  My poster is balanced. 

Font:  My font is clear, readable and suits the message.

Colour:  I have used 2-3 colours that are complementary.  My background choice makes the text pop!

Accuracy:  All of the words on my poster are spelt correctly.
Evaluation:
What are you most proud of and why?
I am most proud my poster because it is balanced and the text colours and fonts match my meaning.

What challenged you the most and why?
What challenged me was making the poster balanced because there was always a extra word.

Next time, what is a goal you can work towards?
I could work on adding more words on more useful things.
Feedback I like how you have laid your words.
Feedfoward You could work on putting some greetings on the poster.
