Just Like MeI like it quiet when I work.
I like to listen to music when I work.
I like my teacher to joke around sometimes.
I cannot learn when people distract me.
I like to work with a partner.
I would like to use technology to make learning more fun.I would like some kind of reward for making good choices.
I learn better when the lesson is in a game format.
I would like make some posters to help decorate this classroom.
I know how to keep myself focused and not distracted.
