Final Reflection Of Music - 9DV

During our 8 week music module I have learnt how to play a drum beat with some fills before we started this module I had no music experience I had never touched a drum but this module I have come a long way I feel like I can now play the drums and I would love to take music as a main module in year 11.

Reflection In Music

When I started at the start of this music module I had never touched of thought about play drums I think I have improved. I can now play a rock beat I can tell when I have done something wrong and I can start again and fix it. This module I worked with a small group with three others and all of us have learnt and gained feedback from each other if we hit the wrong drum someone in our group would correct us we had even rotations and we would play for a certain time then switch. One new goal I can set is to be able to play double bass in our rock beat I could even aim for three. At the start one challenge I faced was hitting the right drum at the right time after some practice I had the skills to play.

How you can become autonomous - 9DV

To become autonomous you will have practice and practice and learn what skill as much as you can one way to tell if you have become autonomous you will able to do it without seeing. For example you might practice a drum beat alot and you might be really good at you will be able to play the drum beat without looking if you want an autonomous skill you will have to want to do that you can't become autonomous without liking what you doing. an autonomous skill is a practised skill that you know of by heart and you can remember it and do it with hesitation and you can do it in front of others.

What I have been doing in music

In music I have been learning the basic drum beat we only started learning it yesterday we used the distributed practice.

We have focused on types of practice. I have tried distributed practice and fixed practice.

I have enjoyed everything so far and would like to learn how play the drums more efficiently  

I have not enjoyed how I am not instantly good at it and i have not learnt how to do it i do not enjoy the practice that you have to put into it but i like what you learn at the end.

Career Management Competencies 9DV - Dillon

In this careers module we have been learning about to reflect about ourselves and others and think what we are good at and what we need to work on. We have also learnt what qualities we need in some jobs some qualities could be working with others or speaking a different language some jobs you can't work without these skills.



We have learnt what a career actually is at the start we thought it was just a job but now we know it can be anything you want it to be, it could be a paid job or a unpaid voluntary job it could be to explore the world or write a book or just to take care of someone.

We figured an element is made of one element only one then we got a small piece of magnesium and then lit the bunsen burner then held the magnesium under the blue flame a little bit later it lit up and made a bright white flame then later to go solid into a white powdery solid that we could not turn back into the original elements.A compound is a mixture of of mutuplebule elements that have been combined chemically.

As The Person I admire is Bill Gates Because he is the founder of Microsoft.

I admire Bill Gates because he started Microsoft with a colleague Paul Allen. Before he started Microsoft he made many other businesses before succeeding before creating Microsoft. One of his main problems was money he was not rich and famous before his massive

As Bill Gates being the richest man in the world, Bill Gates is obviously one of the most respected people in the world. Before his successful businesses microsoft Bill and one of his colleagues Paul Allen started a company called Traf-O-Data in the early 1970s there company read and analyzed data from roadways amd then created reports for traffic engineers.

What I have learnt from Bill Gates, I have learnt you don't have to stay in school to succeed but before you leave school you need to have a skill or a lot of passion to do something and some people will need to be prepared to fail and will get back up and try again. Bill Gates is the person who has donated the most money donated to charity.

Week 9 revision Task

This week and last week we have been doing report writing we had three topics to chose from but you only had to do two of them me and my buddy jimmy done eyes and the heart here is our heart work below

The heart is an organ in the human body. It is used to pump blood around the body. Without this organ, you will have a hard time living. This body part is essential because without you would not be able to pump blood.

The heart has lots of different parts for pumping blood around the body. It has four main parts called the Right Atrium, Left Atrium, Right Ventricle and the Left Ventricle. They all are pushed by powerful muscles and are filled with blood to pump around the body. The blood travels through the arteries to different parts of the body. The blood takes oxygen and other important things to the Brain, Eyes, Legs, Hands, Face and many more parts of the body. The heart needs to pump blood to the muscles that pump the heart!!

Because the Heart is so complicated, it is vulnerable to lots of different problems and diseases. Some of these are:

• Heart Attack
• Stroke
• Hole in Heart
• Cardiac Arrest

A heart attack is caused by the arteries clogging up and then the blood is not able to flow. This is a serious problem for the heart.

A Stroke is caused by when part of the brain does not get blood because a clot in the artery by blood then bursts the artery. Where the blood is missing, some brain cells die and some of the brain may be damaged permanently.

A hole in the heart is caused in birth but can be cured when you are young but some lucky people have been treated when they are older. The blood that is high in oxygen mixes with the low oxygen blood. As well, if you have a hole in the heart you cannot go on airplanes because of the pressure.

A cardiac arrest is like heart attack but instead of the arteries being blocked the heart just simply fails. If this happens, you can use your favorite toy the… DEFIBRILLATOR. The defibrillator shocks the heart into beating and to giving life to the victim. But this process does not always work.

The heart is a delicate, important organ and it is compulsory to have. Because of this, it is important to look after your heart. To look after your heart, do not smoke or drink dangerous liquids and (If you're under 18) no alcohol. Do not use these things to protect your heart.

• 1 cup sugar
• 125 g butter

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a baking tray or line with baking paper.
2. Combine the oats, coconut, flour, and sugar together in a large bowl.
3. Melt the butter and golden syrup together. Dissolve the baking soda in the boiling water and add to the butter mixture. Pour the butter mixture into the dry ingredients and mix together.
4. Roll teaspoons into balls and place on the tray, allowing room for them to spread.
