Today we started off talking about he email that Mr.Paterson got from the student from our class and the student from the other class as well. One of them was talking about how to show the presentation if there were colorblind person. I thought that was a really interesting question because I have never thought of it. I thought that it is important to know because there might be someone color blinded who will see our presentation. Then the rest of the class, we were able to work in our group as it is the last day to prepare as a group before tomorrow which is the presentation day. We were preparing our presentation from before the summer holiday, and we had a lot of time to improve what we need to improve. So I think we should better than the first time we presented. I think we were able to use this time wisely because this was the last time we can meet as a group and prepare for our presentation unless we phone call together and rehearse it today at night.

In this lesson, we first went to the document where we can see which video I have seen from Mr Paterson's youtube channel. I have watched a few video during the first term and in the summer holidays, but I haven't seen all 14 videos which talk about the tips for the presentation. So I thought this was good document for me to be able to know which video I have seen and which video I have not seen. In this class, we were able to watch the videos so I chose the video I have not seen. I thought it was really useful because obviously, we still have many things to improve in our presentation and if we use things that were said in the video, I think our presentation will be much better than before. We still haven't really finished our website so I would like to finish it and also at the same time, I want the presentation to be much better than before, and the way we give the presentation to the audience will be better than before.

In this class, we made a website. We started off by learning how to make a website. At first, I thought it was going to be difficult and complicated to make a website, but when I made it, it was really simple and easy for us to make a website. Then we made a website as our presentation groups to make a website about our title and put some information which we couldn't include in our presentation. We were able to make some pages on the website and think of what we are going to write in those pages. In the next lesson, I think we will continue making our group's website so I want to make sure to finish it by that time, and if we can't, we are planning to meet up and do it to finish it as a group. We are also planning to meet up for practising our presentation as the presentation day is coming soon. Even though we practised, we still need more time to practice our own parts so that when it comes to the presentation day, we are ready. I also want to be able to speak without...

Today we started off talking a little bit about plagiarism. Plagiarism is when you use someone else's idea and say that it is your information. After we talked a little bit, we then searched about plagiarism. We searched for plagiarism that mostly happened in Japanese schools. Then we searched about our own topic for the other team. I've heard of the word plagiarism and knew the meaning. However, I haven't searched for the examples and I was surprised when I saw so many websites which talked about the people who plagiarised, but I was more surprised that there was a lot of people in Japanese school who plagiarised. I learned that there are still plagiarism happening which should not be happening because it is a bad thing to steal ideas from someone else.  The second task we did is where we still think about plagiarism and search for the topic we chose for the presentation. I couldn't really find a website that connects with my topic. I also couldn't find any ...
