My piano report

Piano was a type of simple machine. It was lever. The lever was the piano keys. Levers help you move the items that are heavy. Piano was a very popular instrument. Most people used piano for their performances.

Bartolomeo Cristofori invented the piano. It was invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori around 1720 in Padua, Italy.

The word piano came from pianoforte. Most of the width of the piano was 150 centimeter. Piano is mostly used in western music. I think piano was an interesting intrument because of the way it works. It was very unique.

My scissors report

Scissors was a type of a compound machine. It was two blades joined together. The pivot make the blades joined together. Scissors are used to cut thin materials such as paper, cardboard, metal foil and so on.

Ancient Egypt was the place where the scissors was invented. It was on 1500 BC. Scissors was invented by Leonardo Da Vinci.

Children's scissors are not really sharp some of them was protected by plastic. I think scissors are important because without scissors it will be hard for us to cut the papers.

I believe, You believe

Theme: How we express ourselves

Central Idea: The beliefs and culture are conveyed through
rituals, celebrations,the arts and the way people live their lives.

Reflection:

Our beliefs

In this activity we had to write down what we believed when we were young. I wrote that when I was young I believed that Santa Claus will give me presents for Christmas so every night before Christmas I alwys prepare cookies and a glass of milk for Santa, but in the morning the cookies and the milk was still there , because of that now I didn't believe that Santa Claus is here. We share our beliefs to everyone in the class. It was interesting to know people beliefs. I felt so happy when I was doing this activity, because sometimes people believe things that are impossible and that made me laugh.

Beatrix Potter

When we did this activity we watched a movie about Beatrix Potter. We looked at how Beatrix believed that her drawings could talk to her. Beatrix Potter was a famous artist. She could draw really good and she could write interesting stories. In this activity I thought that I needed to be a thinker to make the summary of Beatrix Potter.

Haiku
God's Love

In this activity I think I need to be knowledgeable so I could make the correct syllables. We have to make somthing that look like a poem about God's Love, the difference between poem and Haiku is that the first line of Haiku must be 5 syllables, the second line must be 7 syllables and the third line must be 5 syllables.

Religion Project

In this project we have to write what do we know about the religion that we pick. It was not easy to do this because I pick Sikhism religion. Sikhism religion was not a common religion that is why it is hard for me tho find the infomation.

Exhibition

In this exhibition I learned about other religion. It was so hard to have this exhibition because I needed a lot of information for this exhibition. I felt confused when I was doing this exhibition.

Field trip

In the field trip we went to the Istiqal Mosque and the Cathedral church. I learned a lot of things from this field trip such as the activity that Islam has, the thing that the catholic likes to do and other things.

Sikhism Display Description

First, I will type the title and all of the writings in the computer so, it would be neat. The title will be on the very top with a little introduction. There will be a lot of posters on my display it was gonna be 3 posters. For the posters I will use styrofoam because styrofoam is colourful and it was stronger. At the edge of the board I will have a box of candy for people who wants it. I will have photo booth in my exhibition so, people will wear the dress from Sikhism religion that I have provided and they will stand in front of the picture of Sikhism temple then I will take a picture of them and I will print them right away so, they could bring it home. I will stick the picture of the temple on the very bottom so if little kids wants to take a picture they do not have to use chairs. Not everybody could take the picture because the costume is not large. This photo booth is for free. On the table there will be the costumes for the photo booth.

Miss Potter had a very big imagination. She thought that every single character that she drew could talk to her. She talked to them just like when she talked to humans.

Miss Potter was very creative. She could draw really well and she could write interesting stories. She was a very independent person because she could be successful without her parents money or somebody helping her. Her mom didn't believe that Miss Beatrix could be so successful.

At the end Miss Beatrix moved to Top Hill Farm because she wanted to be independent. One of Miss Beatrix Potter's friends lived there. His name was Mr Willy Heelis. Mr Heelis went to Ms Potter's house and he looked at her drawings and talked to them. Finally Ms Potter married Mr Heelis and they lived happily ever after.
