My Reflection

17th Day Making A Difference

Today I made a difference by helping Mum prepare dinner. I couldn't do much else because I was sick but I could still help prepare dinner. It was easier for my Mum because she didn't have to worry about preparing it.

16th Day Making A Difference

Today I made a difference by helping my Dad put up some more curtains in his room. It's hard work as we had to attach every single hook on the curtain to the wall. I felt happy to help him because he needed some help and we got through the job much quicker with my help. I also felt happy to help him because I saw that he needed help.

14th Day Making A Difference

There were dirty dishes everywhere so I decided to wash them for my Mum. I usually dont make my bed and clean my room either so I did them aswell.

I felt good to help out my friend because I had plenty of money and it would of been selfish not to.

9th Day Making A Difference

My Mum needed help with the dishes so I decided to help her. Since we don't have a dishwasher it is hard for Mum to wash and dry the dishes. I didn't have anything else to do so I thought I should make her day a little easier by doing that. I knew I made a difference because she thanked me and I did it without being asked. I felt good to help her because I didn't have anything else to do.

8th Day Making A Difference

My Auntie was visiting today to pick up my Grandma's lawn mower. Since my Grandma couldn't bring the mower up to the front of her house because of her broken leg, I thought I should do it. I knew that she was happy because she thanked me and so did my Auntie. I felt good to do that so my Grandma didn't have to worry about it with her leg.

7th Day Making A Difference

Taking out the rubbish isn't quite the nicest job but I did it for my Grandma because she had a broken leg. Im sure she wouldn't of wanted to take out the rubbish with a broken leg so I helped her out without asking. I could tell she was happy because she gave me some cake and I also felt happy to help her out.

6th Day Making A Difference

Today I made a difference by helping my Grandma with the computer. She doesn't know much about computers so I taught her some important things like how to use her e-mail and using other programs. I felt happy to teach her those skills because she wants to get better at computers and I helped her do that. She was also happy because she was stuck before I came and helped her.

4th Day Making A Difference

Today me, my friend and his brother went down to the dairy to get some drinks but they didn't have enough money to buy anything for themselves. I had a lot of money so I got them a drink each. I knew that they were happy because it was very hot so they needed a drink and they thanked me. I felt good to help them because it would be selfish getting something on my own and not sharing my money.

3rd Day Making A Difference

Today I made a difference by helping my Dad putting up his new curtain in his bedroom. I think he was both surprised and happy that I did this for him because he didn't expect me to do it as he didn't ask me and he didn't have to do the work that I did for him. I felt good to do that job for my Dad so he didn't have to do it himself.
