Special Gifts

Hello Grade Fives,

We all have special gifts but it is sometimes easier to see them in other people. You have probably seen people who make certain activities look easy: examples include skating, playing the piano, spelling accurately, acting or solving math problems.

I would like you to take a moment to think about your special gift. These are often things we find easy or particularly enjoyable to do.

Please respond to this blog by telling me about your special gift and perhaps some examples of when or how you discovered it or know that you have it.

If you need time to think about this question, you may respond later in the week.

Thank you.

Love Mrs. French

Mrs. French,
My special gift is with computers. I helped you and the grade 4's when they had trouble with the computer. It also helps me find helpful infromation to help not only you but everyone in the classroom. Over the weeks I've been in your classroom, I found out computers can teach using "Web Links." [Colter]

Dear Mrs. French

Me and my friends think that my special gift is that i am good at school, that i am good at shoting hoops with a basketball and that i am good at Vollyball, typing and in all the other sports that i have not polayed before all of my friends say that i am probably good at them to. I found these thing by asking my friends and thinking about the activities that i enjoy cause your special gift should always be something that you enjoy or like doing or are good at.Here is a question for you Mrs. French, what do you think that your special gift is? I think that your special gift is teaching and i think that because i love you as a teacher and i think that you are good at your job.

Love,
Bridgette

Hi Mrs.French,
There's many things I like to do, but not all of them are my "special gift", like I love hockey, but no one ever said I was good at it, but then there are things like basketball, something that sorta comes natually to me, considering that I am tall, and that I never want to stop practicing. I also believe that school is one of my gifts, well that is what my mom says. Soccer i've always liked and fond that I had a talent for it. Next there comes word problems, I love word problems and i've been told that I am good at them. I am ok at skating, but need alittle work on stopping. My teacher last year seemed to think that I was good at story writing, now I don't if she was saying that to be nice or if she really thought that, but anyway I really enjoy storie writing. Now what else is my "special gift"? What is something that I love to do, and that im good at? I'll leave that for you to decide.
Have a nice day

Hi Mrs. French,
My firt gift i guess is that i have a nice (voice)??? Me having a nice voice is something that people tell me. But they might be just saying that so they don't hurt my feelings. An other gift that i guess i have is that i am a good actress, then again i have been acting for a long time so i guess there is no reason why i sould protest against for saying that it is one of my many talents. My last but not least talents is that i guess i am good at sports, well i think that i am only good at soccer, i am kinda good at hockey and skating. To me it is very hard to say that something is your "special talent" because people can think that you are bragging or trying to make yourself look popular because you are good at something. But no one is saying this to make people mad or other things. Oh and Mrs.French i am sorry for going off subject. please do not take marks off of mine.

I would say I am good at more than one thing. These things may include hunting, fishing, soccer and tying flies. Somer of you may laugh when I say I am good at hunting or fishing but it used to be anyone could catch fish, but now since there aren't as many fish in the ocean you have to know what to do in order to catch them. Now with hunting you have to be stealthy, and have a good aim and not to big of a gun otherwise you'll fall over when you shoot and you'll never want to shoot a gun again. With fly tying you have to patient because if you're not you'll mess up alot and your flies won't be very good. Those are the things I wwould say I am good at.
