The next level: comprehension

Materials
: Knitting needle and Silk

Knitting needle: This help to knit (very important material)
Silk: We can choose the colors of silk








Step of knitting
1. Put a string on the knit
2. Continue the knitting
3. Cut the string for continue the other color
4. Bind the other color of string with first string
5. Knit the string as same as first

Compare knitting a scarf and knitting a socks
- Knitting a scarf and knitting a socks have different. First, their knitting needle are not same. Knitting scarf needle has a long string for continue the scarf, but the knitting a socks needle hasn't any string with needle. It's looks like qutip. Also knitting a socks is more complicated than knitting a scarf.

Reflection
: This project is made by ESL students and me. It's about noun. We individually choose 3 pictures in Flickr and write down what noun it is. When we finished research pictures, we put it in the same keynotes. This project was very helpful to understand nouns. Because i could see another people works and also when i did research about nouns, i realized again what nouns have.



Adjectives:



Reflection
:First I research the pictures that related with adjective. I research thankful, brave, cheerful, lonely, fantastic, silly, tiny, tough, comfortable, noisy and zealous. When I research those pictures, i had a lot of fun. Because so many pictures were funny also I learned more detailed about adjectives so, now i do understand what is adjectives. 




Verbs:
A Day In My Life, Part 1: Present Tense Verbs




Reflection1
: I learned from this project was Present Tense Verbs. First, I photoed some pictures that I did that time. For example like, School and handphone ETC.. Present Tense verbs was quiet easy to understand. So, this unit was not hard to understand.

Reflection2
: This project is also same as present Tense Verbs's project, only the different is this is Past Tense Verbs. This also not really difficult to understand and what i did in this project is photoed last time what i did and make a imovie with those pictures.

Let's make an adverbs movie!

 


Reflection
: First I did plan with my partner for the story. When we finished to make a story conversation in gmail document, we went to next step which chose backgrounds and characters In the Dvolver. Second we put some conversation in movie that we made before. We mailed this Dvolver and we put this in imovie. In imovie we recorded our conversation.

I really don't understand what is adverbs. In the past, I only knew that adverbs similar like verb but not until detailed. But know i know that adverbs are modify the words and also most of adverbs put "ly" in the end of the words. Also when I made this movie, I learned again and review again about adverbs. I enjoyed this project because this is first time made movie like this.

My partner was very match with me because when we did this work, we shared all of work and also did together.

What I learned Today

I learned about Compounds sentence, Complex sentence and Run-on sentence. Compound sentence is more than one sentence. For example, I am going to school yesterday but my friend Sarah didn't come to school because she got a cold. In this sentence there are 2 sentence. I am going to school yesterday and my friend Sarah didn't come to school because she got a cold. This 2 sentence are all complete sentence also independence clauses. But the Complex sentence is not same with compound sentence. Only the one that same is, there are 2 sentence. Complex sentences are not a complete sentence also there are independence clauses and dependence clauses. For example, My friends are decided to go to the park tomorrow but I will not join them. Here, the sentence of my friends are decided to go to the park tomorrow is the complete sentence and independence clauses but the another sentence that i will not join them is not a complete sentence also it's dependence clauses. So, this sentence called a complex sentence. Last one is Run-on sentence. Run-on sentence is like I didn't do exercise I got fatter and lazier. This sentence need to fix because there isn't any joining word. If this sentence is fix with joining word so, it will became i didn't do exercise and i got fatter and lazier. This is what i learned today.

What I learned today

Today in ESL i learned about what is complete sentence, what is fragment, what is subject and what is predicate. Complete sentence has Subject + Predicate + Complete thought. If there isn't any one of thing in the sentence, it's called fragment. For example of complete sentence is "I swam with my friend yesterday." but if sentence become "Swam with my friend yesterday", this sentence will called fragment because there is no subject.
