Final Evaluation For Music

Observation:
In my 8 weeks in music I have realised I have a good relationship with music. I have observed that music is an amazing class, there is more freedom and more chance to learn on your own. It is amazing.

Reason:

-You can learn what instrument you want.
-There is more freedom.

-No restrictions to goals in music.

-No forcing anything onto you.

Explanation:
I love music and I wish I could continue this class, I love the freedom, you can practice in so many places, play so many different instruments and play so many different songs. It is by far one of the best classes I've ever had.

Objective:

My objective now is to continue learning music every chance I can get. I will practice at my youth group and save money for a guitar. I really would love to keep playing an instrument and learn something else too, possibly the drums.

Being Autonomous In Music

Autonomous

To be able to become autonomous I need to practice playing the song I have chosen in music and remember the pattern in my head of how I am meant to play the strings on the guitar. I need to be able to not have to look at the guitar and be able to get it right and not make mistakes on it.

Well-being In Music

My well-being in music:

Music is a way I can escape from reality. It helps me express how i'm feeling, if I am feeling down, I put on some sad music and just dance. If i'm happy, I put on something with a good beat and dance away, not caring about the world around me. If i'm pumped up I put some energetic music on through my headphones and go for a run or an hour at the boxing bag. Music just overall makes me feel better and helps me express how I feel.

Element and Compound Notes-9DV-9SCI

An element has one individual type of atom. Then a compound is when you have two or more elements combined chemically.

Today we used a piece of solid magnesium and heated it over a Bunsen burner.
After about ten seconds the magnesium turned into magnesium oxide.
The magnesium oxide looked white and had a colourless gas.
It turned into a different solid, which was a powder.
Once this process was done it could not be reversed.

Mg   + O2         ->  MgO

Magnesium   + Oxygen      -> Magnesium Oxide

English-SEXY Paragraphs

In English we had to write SEXY Paragraphs about our hero's. I know what you're thinking, what the heck is a SEXY Paragraph? A SEXY Paragraph is made up of four things, Statement, Explanation, eXample and Your added comment. I wrote about my hero, the worldwide famous dancer, Fik Shun.

The person I admire as a hero is Du-Shaunt, better known as Fik Shun (his stage name).

He is my hero because he is a worldwide professional dancer. He has struggled throughout his life training to be what he is now. I aspire to be like him someday and that is my main reason he is my hero. He never gave up throughout his life and it resulted in him becoming famous all over the world and succeeding his dream. That is a hero to me.

For starters one of his determinations and struggles was him starting dance at the age of five. At that age it was difficult for him to start dance but he continued on with his dream. He also struggled growing up in dance with because of other things in life for him. These thing included family events or troubles, school and his social life. But he still managed to train. Until the age of twelve he lived in Kansas, but then he moved to Las Vegas to discover more talent. This shows everybody that he was very determined. He struggled growing up in Las Vegas too. It was difficult to make ends meet for him, that’s when he started street performing. At first he didn’t have a speaker so him and his mate danced to beats played by a bar truck, they started making a few hundred a night. They then bought a speaker and made several hundred a night. To me it is brave to be a street performer and these are some of my reasons why he is my hero.

In conclusion Fik Shun is an inspiration and a hero to me. He has inspired me to continue training to dance and hopefully someday I will be as good as him. He has demonstrated and taught all of us that determination leads to success. He is a great role model to all, especially younger people. This is important because younger people need a role model/hero to look up to. This makes them feel that they too can achieve greatness.
