Appreciation and Reflection

Appreciation
I would like to thank Puan Ng for her guidance and advice. It had been very useful during the making of this folio. I would also like to thank my parents for helping me at home.

Reflection
I have learnt many things by making this folio. Among them are learning the meaning of tolerance and conflict. I also have learnt how to cool down when I am angry. This was a very exciting and interesting folio to complete because I did it in my blog.

Conflict

What is a conflict?

Based on http://www.peacekids.net/stories/dino-cool/dino-cool.htm, a conflict is disagreement and argument which can make people angry.

Ways to cool down

• Count to ten... take a deep breath
• Do something you enjoy
• Squeeze a pillow, scream and get your anger out.

This story is about a boy who has very bad temper. He lost his friends and family because of his temper. One day, his father dressed as a servant and called him boss. He felt guilty and and relized that he head treated other people wrongly. The boy then promised his father to change his attitude.

His father asked him to hammer a nail every time he gets mad. As days passed, less nails are hammered to the fence. Finally, there are none. His father then asked him to take one nail out a day. The boy never cheated.

My Chinese New Year Holiday

My Chinese New Year holiday was a little boring. I had gymnastics training most of the time so it wasn't that interesting. When I wasn't training I was either watching TV, playing computer or doing my homework. In this week I also did not watch my favourite TV show Glee. I'm also upset because I missed the replay of it.
