Reflection on the Third Grading Period
I've encountered a problem in placing the different tags. I also had a problem on ending the tags.
I addressed these challenges by double checking if I had typed the correct tag. When I don't really know where I had wronged, I'll ask my classmate to double check my exercise.
Moving on, I will remember this tags for me to create a web page.
“New Year, New Me”
New year is the time at which a new calendar year begins. It’s a new year again, it came so fast that we didn’t noticed. It’s again another year for us to hope for another successes. There were new clothes, sometimes new gadgets, and a new me.
New year reminds us the happenings from the past. We reminisce the things that had happen, the mistakes we had done. For me, I go back to the things that had happen where I’ve done something, either good or bad. I go back to where I had mistakes and then learn from them.I take note of the bad comments people said about me, and try to improve myself in the coming year for them to like me more. When I’ve done something wrong to a person, I’ll try to apologize to him /her before the year ends, so that I will have no worries in welcoming the new year. I don’t need to change myself totally for I also consider those people who have liked me for who I am even if I don’t change anything on me.
New year, another year God gave to us so we must be thankful. Another chance for us to be good to other people in any ways. We must not change totally just for some people to like us. Let them accept you for who you are before and now that you’ve slightly changed for the better.

Keeping in Mind Our Mother Tongue
Our mother tongue is the language we are using from the time we learn to speak. Its basics are usually learned from our family.Good skills in native language are essential for further learning, as native language is thought to be a base of thinking. Incomplete first language skills often make learning other languages difficult. Native language has therefore a central role in education. Children who go to school with a strong foundation in their mother tongue develop stronger literacy abilities in the language used at school. When parents or caregivers are able to spend time with their children and tell stories or discuss issues with them in a way that develops their mother tongue vocabulary and concepts, children go to school well prepared to learn the language of their immigrant country and succeed educationally.
Learning our mother tongue is a first step to our wider knowledge. Even if we are in different places, we must not still forget our mother tongue for even how far we go or how long we’ll be away, we will always go back to our native land for it is where our real happiness is.
