Music Shake Review

For our assignment in social studies this week we had to write a song about Nathaniel Walker.  It was difficult and easy at times for me and my partner to write it and create the music.  The music was easy to make because of music shake.  it’s a website where you can create your own songs.  It’s really cool.  If you want to visit the site for music shake click here.  This site was really amazing.  When me and my partner presented we ended up not using music when we recorded.  Why?  Well,  we couldn’t figure out how to shorten the music or make it longer according to our song.    But overall I really did enjoy it.  it makes it easier to make songs for projects or just for fun, and there’s no copy right.  Thank you for listening to my point of view.  If you want to learn more about music shake and see a video about it click here.

The Ipads!

For the past few weeks our class has been using the Ipads to work on different projects.  The I pads were a big help to me.  They helped me present my ideas more clear to the class.  Our social studies teacher, Mr. Bogush gave us these Ipads to use for our projects.  We did 2 projects.  The first projects that we presented on these ipads were just normal presentations.  Our whole class presented better.  We presented better because of the app on the Ipads called Idea flight.  Idea flight was a way to present without having every body staring at you. The people would be staring at the Ipads watching the presentation.  It was certainly more calming than presenting directly in front of the class.  But later on during the process of using the Ipads.  Our teacher gave us the assignment to find something new that our class did not know about Idea flight.  It was very difficult to find out a way to present differently than the normal way of using it.  From my perspective I think that you should create and app so that you can place videos or music on the presentations.  But overall it was good app that I think many people should use when presenting an idea.  Thank you for listening.

5 Objects

Suitcases:   This a part of out family which shows that our family likes to travel in different states.

Water bottles:  Our family owns tons of water bottles.  We have at least 2 cases in my house right now and a few that are in the refrigerator.

Phone:  On my phone I have many different phone numbers and people text me all the time which I think someone could figure out that I talk a lot.

Fruit:  I love fruit,  I know someone could figure out that I love fruit because in my refrigerator we have many different types of it like oranges, apples, grapes, pomegranates…etc

Animals:  Our family owns 3 animals.  We own 1 dog and 2 cats.  We all love animals, but don’t want another right now.  Well, my parents don’t but I do!  I know someone could tell that we all love animals because of how many we have.

Living my life!

Active

My life is very active because I am up and running everyday and barley have time to sit down.

Basketball

School

family 

 Basktball is a very important part in my life because of how it keeps me active.  It keeps me active becasue of all the running you have to do.  My favorite part of basketball is offence.  It is my favorite part in basketball because when you are on offence you can get fouled and shout foul shots and make shoots on the court.  Also it is my favorite because of all of the team work going on.  Team work on offence is helping you teammates to get shots in the basket.  Which is very exciting!  I enjoy playing this because I meet new people every time I join a new team and it keeps me active and in shape.  Basketball is my favorite sport and is the only sport I play.

One Word in 60 sceonds!

Our assignment was to wright about 1 word that we saw on this site called http://oneword.com/, but you only had 1 minute to write it. So here is my word. 

Obey:

What obey means to me is that when someone tells you do do something you do it.  When I think of Obey I think of a dog.  I think of a dog because of how a dog listens and OBEYS what you say.  For example when a dog obeys they can sit, stay, lay down, roll over, fetch a ball…etc.  That is what I think obey means.

 

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a big feast that the Pilgrims had.  That is technically not true.  Thanksgiving was created before the Pilgrims had a feast with the Indians.  The Pilgrims and Indians did not like each other.  The pilgrims thought that the Indians were bad people.  The only reason the pilgrims went over seas on the mayflower was because of there religious beliefs.  They believed differently than the city of London, England did.  The when they landed over seas the Pilgrims were sick.  The Indians came along and helped them.  They all later had a feast called Thanksgiving.  But the only thing that’s not true is that Thanksgiving was not created by the Pilgrims they just called it that.  Thanksgiving was created before the Pilgrims thought they have founded it.

Ipads!

During the first week when our class received the Ipads, I felt very excited that I was able to use them.  The Ipads were a good resource to use when presenting.  I felt when other people were sharing I felt more focused on what the person was saying.  I understood what everyone was talking about much better than when the classes use to present off the board.  I am going to present my project on the Ipads when I go back to school on Monday.  I do not feel as nervous to share because I feel as though the people in my class will be looking more at the Ipads than watching me.

Christmas!

Christmas,  what should I say about Christmas.  Well, it is my favorite season, and I love all the happy faces when people open there presents.  That is why this year for Christmas I am going to do something different.  I am going to go to a shelter a week before.  I’m going to make gift bags full of goodies like, toys, food, clothes and blankets to give away.  I want to make the people who don’t have a home or need somewhere warm to have an opportunity to enjoy what we normally receive daily.  They deserve to have a wonderful and memorable Christmas just like some people around the world do.

Creativity!

I am very creative in many different ways.  But my most strong creativity is writing my stories.  I add detail and emotion to show the reader what I am trying to say.  All of my details have emotion or feeling in them.  Also most of my stories are fiction.  When I write fiction stories I feel that I can be creative and not just write a biography by stating the facts.  I feel as though I can be in the scenario.  For example in class we all had to write about mother nature.  However, everyone’s was different.  One of my qoute’s from my story had said.  “When I create the hurricanes and tornado’s around the world, it hurts my heart and soul, and I don’t know why I do this.”  That was one of the quotes mother nature said in my writing.  When people read my stories I feel overwhelmed with joy when I hear a positive comment back from them.  I feel like I have a natural gift of talent.  But when I collect a negative comment I don’t take it as a bad thing I take it as an opportunity to learn and try to make my stories more creative!  It may take me a second to grasp what the listener is trying to say, but I later understand it and work towads making the story better.

25 Years!

If a average human’s life span was 25 years old.   I would do many different things with my life.  If I lived for 25 years I would go bungee jumping.  I have always wanted to go bungee jumping but was too scared and still am.  But I would if I had very little time to live.  I would also go to Hawaii to swim with the dolphins.  Dolphins are sweet loving animals.  Hawaii is one of my favorite states.  It is a warm state, where I can sit in the sun and tan and go swimming with the dolphins.  My last thing I would do if I only lived for 25 years is go to Italy.  Italy is a big place.  They have very interesting food and know for most of there pizza, and one of my favorite foods is pizza.  So that is what I would do if I lived for 25 years!
