Today in RLA I learned that if you step out of your comfort zone, you can learn and grow a lot more than in your tiny little comfort box. And to do this you need to have a good growth mindset, which means you are eager to learn more.

In RLA today, I learned that to achieve something, you must step outside your comfort zone, even if it is doing something you don't like to do. I also learned that to improve you have to practice the things you don't like to do and the things that you aren't good at.

In RLA today I learned that the only way to get good at something is to practice, and people only practice what they're good at. And to experience new things you need to step out of your comfort zone and try it out.

In RLA, I learnt about my comfort zone and how I have to step out of it more often because whenever you step outside of your comfort zone you can see many different things that are different and things that I might enjoy

Hi Mr. Buxton!

Today in RLA class I learned that I had to step out of my comfort zone in order to really LEARN new things, because trying new things is always going to be out of your comfort zone.

We also needed to have a "growth mindset" instead of a "fixed mindset", meaning that we had to be a risk-taker and be open-minded.

Another thing I learned today is that we needed to practice what we are bad at, instead of always concentrating on what we are good at, because then we would not improve.

Today focused on stepping out of your comfort zone to try new things. My comfort zone (with books) usually was quick reads that weren't too hard to read which is why I'm intimdated by 7th grade books for 7th grade students. Hopefully this year, I'll try to step out of my 11-inch yellow rectangle and read some of those books.
