Recycling

During the winter break I have had many guests at my house and there were many bottles left after they left. I decided to recycle them in the special machines that are placed around Moscow, which recycle bottles for 10 and 50 kopek coins. I have successfully recycled 8 plastic 2 litre bottles and by doing so Engaged with issues of global importance.

Snowman

On January the 13 the weather was awesome. The snow was sticky and is was not cold so, some of the year 12 boys decided to build some thing out of snow. Not just a snowman but a snowman family. We have undertaken a new challenge and worked collaborativeky with each other. We have also planned and iniciated activities and possibly developed new skills because I have never built such huge snowmen in my life.

Fencing Competion

On the 3rd of January me and some other people from my fencing club went to another city in Russia: Kazan'. There were approximately 201 participants. There were 2 poules which eliminated all of the people who did not make it to the top 100. In the end I made it to the top 16 and lost to a Ukrainian opponent- Lysenko. I have developed new skills or rather became more experienced and increased awareness of my own strengths and weaknesses. By attending trainings and participating in competitions I am continuing to show perseverance and commitment in my actions. In the photo I am on the right and his is the last battle where I lost to Lysenko 15-12

Festive Celebration

On the december the 16 the IB students organised a disco. It has taken us a  huge effort and as usuall to do the work time-efficiently and at a good standard we were divided into groups and we worked collaboratively with each other and planned and initiated activities. I was in charge of providing data representing the number of students, which would come without school uniform and would require a santa hat. The condition to come without school uniform was to pay a hundred roubles. I was also in charge of selling crisps and chips. There also was a karaoke and each year group had to perform a song. My group decided to sing the song " V Lesu Rodilas' Elochka" which means " A christmas tree was born in the forest". To be creative I made myself a christmas tree coustume out of green and orange paper. This event helped me raise awareness of my own strengths and weaknesses. For example I am convinced that I am not the best singer. As a result we have raised over 20000 Roubles and concidering that we need 30000Roubles for the dog we have almost reached our target.

Jumble Sale

The Jumble Sale was another atempt to raise money for charity ( A guide dog for blind people). We woked collaboratively with each other and planned and initiated activities. We were divided into groups and each group had to do the work they were assigned. We have brought in items and sold them at a very low price. I brought in a recent copy of the Top Gear magazine. We were all given an opportunity to sell the items, which helped me develop new skills and undertake new challenges. I have enjoyed and even bought some items for myself. The jumble sale was a success. We sold most of the items that were brought in and raised another decent amount for the guide dog.

Admiral Kuznetsov

During the holidays I decided to return to one of my old hobbies, which was auto, aero and ship modelling. I went to a modelling shop and got myself this great historical master piece of the Russian navy.
In reality this is one of Russias largest aircraft carriers. It was biult in the year 1985 and is still considered as a very effective and powerful aircrafft carrier.It is 302.3 metres in length and 70 metres wide.                


         


 The model which I made is a plastic one whith a scale of 1:720. The package contained around 150 little parts which I had to sticj together. It took me about six hours.


I think that this could be regarded as creativity. This activity helped me increse my awareness of my own strengths and weaknesses(I was definately better at this before..) I have planned and initiated activities and probably recreated old skills which I have   developed before.
