Programming with Scratch
One of the classes I took aka (things i learned) was programming using a website called Scratch. Just before you think I'm a mastermind with Scratch I would like to inform you that I am pretty new with it.
One of the things I learned from using Scratch was that it takes a long time to make a movie, TV show or video game because technology has not gone so far yet. So we still have to put some hand work into it.
The Art Activities
We did three main art activities witch were Piano, Singing and Drama. We learned something from every one of these activities. From Piano we learned how a basic instrument works and learning that opened a lot into our life. For example we can entertain by playing songs and we can read music. From Singing we learned how breathing is really helpful for basically anything like when you need to com down or when you are saying a big speech. From Drama we learned about how movies and plays work.
Wednesday Project Day
On Wednesday we had a free day to work on projects like blog post and learning french. I am glad we had this day to just kind of chill and work on projects because you feel like you have time, where as when you are working on a project after school you feel tense about not having enough time.
Feelings
At first, I didn't like that we were going to have this month because of how my mom explained it to me. I did not get what she was saying. But now when I am looking back at this month I realized that it was pretty fun. Something that bothered me this month was that we had piano three times a week. I did not like this because I did not feel like we had our art activities for equal amounts of time. But the only reason had to have piano three times a week was because at the beginning of our arts month we had no keyboard to practice on.
Now our arts month is over and it is almost time to go back to Canada.
