Lockdown Reflections - Learning In Lockdown

Today one of our lockdown tasks was to write a couple of paragraphs about the lockdown and how you feel. Here is my writing:

Introduction - How does your typical day look during lockdown?

Paragraph 1 - What are you grateful for (makes you happy) during this lockdown?

Paragraph 2 - What are you finding difficult during this lockdown?

Paragraph 3 - What can you do to improve your lockdown experience? 

Conclusion - Based on your experiences, what advice would you give others to improve their lockdown experiences?

My day starts by me waking up and realising there is still half an hour before the google zoom starts. I rush to get ready, feed the rabbits, eat breakfast and then I arrive 10 minutes early. I do something fun while I wait for the Google Zoom/Meet (Ms Corbett jokes about that) to start and all of a sudden, I remember I forgot to turn off Minecraft, so it makes these weird noises. I listen to Ms Corbett and then I do some of my work. Then I take a break and continue until it is lunchtime.

I am grateful as this lockdown gives me time do do lots of homework on time and I do get 1 hour of free time at night before bed. I get to watch videos as well and I play with my new pet rabbits. I help Dad build a mini house for them and I help pick out some grass for them to eat. This lockdown does give me free sleep as well so I can sleep in and be ready in 10 minutes without walking for 5 minutes to school. Sometimes in the weekends we watch movies and play games, and dinner is the BEST part about all of the days in lockdown. We eat homemade food and it is DELICIOUSO! I sometimes help Mum make bread and yesterday we made hand-made noodles as well! Today at lunch my mum will make the noodles followed with beef and soup and potatoes. It’s quite yummy!

Things I don’t like about lockdown is that I miss having fun with my friends, although we can play online, but not often. It’s sometimes hard to chat online and sometimes you lag online. I miss exercising at school and I miss playing and being active outside. It feels kinda boring being stuck at home and you don’t have anyone to play with, unless you have siblings that annoy you 🙄. At least I got rabbits that don’t annoy you. And I do play Roblox and Minecraft with my friends.

I think I can improve this lockdown experience by asking friends to online chat with me, play games and all that. I hope my Mum and I can make good recipes and I want to try building something out of wood. It does feel good having free time but sometimes it can be boring, so I might make use of that time. When I finish, I can choose between Prodigy, or piano playing. I usually chose Prodigy as it is fun but sometimes when you engage, then it is lunchtime. PS we do get to buy fruits and vegetables online and my Mum bought my favourite kind of fruit, longan!

I suggest you guys make yourselves comfortable at home as we are going to be stuck in our homes for like 2 million years (according to Nicole’s mind). I hope everyone stays safe and be sure to exercise at home, or else you will become a lazy-bone!

I hope you like my writing! Bye bloggers!
