WEDNESDAY- 11/1/2012

Today, I become an actor again!! HAHA~
But, it is differrent for today.. We must acting and singing like 'HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL'.. errrrr~~~ :(

Although, I sigh before doing this activity, but after that, I really happy doing this activity!! :) I think activity like this can reduce stress. Besides, it is also build my confidence to face and talk in front of many people. As I was said bfore in my poem, I am shy to talk in front of many people. I think activity like this can build my confidence. 

My group must act about 'Women Dare to Go It Alone'. 

Rahey : narrator
Izuwan: the husband

Salina: wife in the 2000s

Pony: The wife in the 1900s

Hefa: the daughter

In our story, we make a difference between wife in the 1900s and wife in the 2000s. Wife in the 2000s are focused on their work than their husband. While, wife in the 1900s are focused with their family.

I think we did a good job in acting! HAHA~ :D

In my opinion:

Best group : Group 4

Best Actor : Auf Dinie

Best Actress: Leyha

WEDNESDAY-4/1/2012

On this day, Miss Zu got angry with us because we didn't do our portfolio properly.... Class become so quiet.. This is because everyone felt scared when Miss Zu got angry including me... 

Although, Miss Zu got angry, but after that she could make us laugh...

On this day, I learnt how to find main ideas.. As we know, every paragraph have topic sentences which have the main idea.. But, did you know that some paragraph have an implied main idea?

It is mean that you have to figure out the main idea by yourself..

Example: 

Yellow is bright, cheery color, it is often associated with spring and hopefulness. Green, since it is a color that appears frequently in nature, has come to suggest growth and rebirth. 

The main idea for this paragraph is different types of colors suggest diverse meanings.

After that, we did a games which we need to find the main idea from the video that we watch...

One of the video that made me feel sad is : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppbDj7QsYVE

The main idea for this video is the importance of selling up a good example to kids towards parents...

THURSDAY-5/1/2012

Night class again??? Arghhhhh!!! :(

We need to present our assignment that Miss Zu gave on Tuesday.. The assignment is :

Write a report based on this table:

The length f this report sould be 150-200 words...

Hours spent on activities by different age groups in Someland
Activity                        Age	Teens	20s	30s	40s	50s	60s	70s +
Watching TV/videos	1,200	700	400	500	600	700	1,100

Hours Spent On Activities By Different Age Groups In Someland

The table shows  hours spent on activities by different age groups in Someland within one years. The range of age is between teens and 70’s above.

Watching TV or Videos is the most spent by all range of age especially for teen,1200 and 70s +, 

1100 because all the program suits all age.

On the other hand, doing group exercise and sport is the least hours spent activities. It shows an obvious difference of  hours which is change 100% among the age 60s to 70s +. This is due to the less energy they have.

Fluctuating occurs on the socialising with 4 or less people. It increases 150 hours from 20s to 30s age range whiles it down from 300 to 250 hours from 30s to 40s. It remains constant until 50s.

The table indicates the least hours spent on doing group activity or sport on age range 60s to 70s+.  This is because during that age they socialised less. This is proved by the given data about the socialise activities.  In order to encourage old folks to socialised, the government should organized event that involve them.
