week 3/4 reflection
Something I enjoyed from week 3 and 4: i enjoyed was writing because we started doing reading groups and we would pick what group to be in.
Something that challenged me during week 3 and 4: for me has maths challenged me because i had never tried that strategy before.
A value I have been showing consistently and how:I have shown respect because when i sit on the mat i don't talk unlike some people.
A value that I think I need to improve on and how:I need to be brave because i just get shy around anyone.

My draft and editing:
Published writing:
Have you ever been felt so petrified of a swing?No probably not, well that was what I was worded about.Trust me it is not a feeling you want to feel I was walking up the hill to the giant swing,I was huffing and puffing.I was so petrified because when our instructors Taco and steph told us it was about 17m high I was even more scared. My turn was after brookes and Taco harnessed me on to the swing and bar.I started going up.
The rest of my group had to pull me up with rope.I was looking happy but really wasn't inside.I was worried the they would let go but i slowly got higher and higher until I had to pull the rope.I closed my eyes as tight as I could and all I heard was a click.I felt all the cold raindrops and the wind blowing on me.I was shivering becauseI was socked because of the rain.
At the end steph took off the heavy harness and I unclipped my helmet.I was happy but I wanted another turn
My reflection and next step:
for my next step I will need t add a little bit more detail and I think I done good editing
