Today in citizenship class, we learn about social boundaries and sterotype. When a person become to another area or land, they have to face to other people and realtionships. They got thir own feelings, they had friends before, not because they are from a nother country or etc, so people be able to ignore him or her. Or even sterotype them, not all the athletes got bad grades, and is not all not stylish person don't know art. That is really hurtsful to people who is actually like this.

Art class 11/13 1. Describe 2 people : - facial expressions - Clothing - What were they doing 1. - He is really hot in the factory. - He is wearing a blue shirt and it is dirty. - He is making shape for the glass. 2. - He is really dirty a lot of black on his face. - He is wearing a black cloth with 背叛 on it. - He is shaping the glass become more beautiful. 2. Why is Hsinchu famous for its glass manufacturing (give 2 reasons) Hsinchu is famous of glass because its natural resources is : 1. Silicons 2. Gas

In today's citizenship class, we learn about school's policy, a country citizen, and what is the rules in class. We know really well about the school policy, so I don't want to say much about that now. But what I do want to say is about the country citizen, a country citizen have different type of it. There is native, and the people who transfered. Native means you born in the country, and is legal in it. The transfered one is you born in other country, but you don't feel like living in that place, so you go to the other country and get a job, and become a legal citizen of it. For example, I am born in Taiwan, so I am a native Taiwan citizen. For the rules of the class, we got something written down below. 1. No talking out of turn - means we speak in turns. 2. Raise your hand before you talk. 3. Focus one the topic, pay attention. 4. No communicating quietly in class even the topic is toward the topic we are talking about.

Family - Cause I am a part of my family. HIS - I am a part of student of HIS, and I do what the school does. Taiwan - I am a part of Taiwan's citizen too, because I am born in Taiwan. HsinChu - I live in HisnChu for a long time, so I am a citizen of Hsin Chu too.

Why my life is difference with the Africa's childern? In my personal view, I think the different part is the technology. Because of technology we can have a lot of information that we want. And we can play games, Yahoo Messenger can chat with people that is really far from you. I also think money is a very big reason, sometimes you have skills but you can't found a good boss or leader just because you are poor. That is really unfair for them. The government is the most important one. Some of the country in Africa, their government keep money in his own pocket. And create some ridicules goals. Some of them killing people, and some of them using the money that suppose to be for the people in their country and buy the arms. And then they control people's life, make them work, and buy more arms to attack other countries.

Hi! I come from Taiwa n, secondary student of Hsinchu international school in 7th grade. We have one laptop for each student. Science class!! In 7th grade we have science class in day A first block. Each subject have different teacher and classroom. Serious e xercise I join our school's soccer team for no reason, we practice in Tuesday to Friday after school. And we have some games with other schools. Sometime we win, sometimes they win. After school Some times I don't want to go soccer or soccer is not practicing I will just relax.

In Sudan, there are 6,000 of child has been caught and trained to become the child soldiers. The report says, "There are us many as 6,000 child soldiers, some as young as 11 years old, the war-torn region of Darfur." Can you imagine that a 11 years old child are fighting on battle field killing each other and destroy cities? They are supposed to be in school playing and learning. Just such like the movie "Blood diamond". Children is innocent about everything, they believe in everything those adult said. Those children have grown up knowing nothing but war. What a terrible thing!! Who: The children in Sudan Where: Sudan What: Children in Sudan was recruited to be soldiers. When: 22 December 2008 Why: I think there are two points, one is that the adult in Sudan has been killed a lot and another is children is innocent about everything, so they don't know which is wrong or right and easy to be controlled. Author: Amber Henshaw Link to the report!!

We could us the social science of geography, economics and sociology to make Kenbrena become a more stronger country. I think we could increase human capital, financial capital and natural captial to make Kenbrena turn into powerful country. In terms of human capital, every race should be harmonious, giving Redar and Saknich more education and political opportunity. About increasing financial capital, Kenbrena is rich in Petroleum, coal and cash crop could be economics background. For the natural capital, the Kenbrena hold large of mountain, river and forest, making use of those resources to go for strength to strength.

* What are some possible reasons for some groups in Kenbrena to be friendly to each other while other groups do not get along? The reason that other groups in Kenbrena will be friendly with each other is because they have to stay alive even they don't like the other race. And because the connect each other so each group has their own work. When every one get to work, all the things started. Basically, they help each others. * Is there a social group above the makes you think of yourself or your family? Yes, I think so. For my self I think is Talese.

In my person view I am not agree with that. Because no mater which science are you study, even you don't study science, you still can have the opportunity to point out the wrong thing that scientist did it wrong before. So, that is really not fair to Wegener. Because he is a meteorologist so the geologist tell him to get out and don't listen to him...that is so unfair. And the other thing is that I think those geologist know that Wegener was right, but they can't pull don't his face to agree with his drift and they don't have any thing to debate with, so they bring up that he is a meteorologist. What the heak is this?! And the other point is that because he is a German so that think he shucks....

Human capital : Every country's people is supposed to be educated to become more knowledge. Beca use you have knowledge, following your attitude become more discipline. When all the citizen in your country hold the ability to work. And they can hold more opportunity to give whole play to their talent. Those people we concern them as human capital. Financial capital : The country's money which could be really used to by real things. Natural capital : The country's natural material and stuff could be made up for goods like plant, oil, gas, mineral...etc.

In humanities class we had study a lot about geography, and we are going to write a post about a city and describe the regions of that city. But first, do you guys know what is region means, bascally it is means the area of a part of the land. The city I am going to write is Hsinchu, here is where I live it for six year. It has the other name called wind city, because it's wind is too big and the people here us wind to dry things very normaly so it been called wind city, so creative right? Hsinchu is a city of Taiwan. Is not big as Taipei. Hsinchu is 7th big city in Taiwan. It has 40.6 million people live in Hsinchu. The 30 million people are all older the 15. And 4.3% people don't have any jobs. Hsinchu's most famous goods is chip, I mean the chip inside every technology tools. But in the old Hsinchu city they are famose from glass. They can make the glass has many shape, color and beautiful. Hsinchu has a lot of old buildings too. Few of the buildings are for the war befo

Today in science class we have a activities call "Chocolate attack". The story is talking about China is attack us. They using chocolate to shoot us. The only way we can don't get hurt and don't become "chocolate man" is get on the boat and drive it away. We have those same materials: 3 peace of paper and 3 store and 1 meter of tape. We can design any shape you want but fistful it must can float and carry people ( I mean stopper ). Our team design a canoe. We use 3 pices of paper to make 3 same canoe and tape it to gather. And then we cut off the strow and tape on the canoe too. Is time to test it !! In the next class, we go down stars and put it in a small pond. One group at the one time. First on is Patrick's group, I forget how many stopper did they put. And then is Stephanie's group, their group is the winner they got 31 stopper on her boat. Then is Sandra's group I forget how many did they have too. But I remember my group. Our group go

In science class, we have a activity. The activity is to make the messy puzzle piece together be come a really picture. But this time have some thing is different, the puzzle piece didn't have any cue. It is a blank paper. It was all white. I am with Stephanie and Andrew. They both are good at puzzles. So they can very easy to find out which one can fit the other one. But thins time the has been stuck. It have few piece of paper. And it didn't have demo. You must to us your imagination. But we still fit it all together. That was cool. The other time we have the same thing like this. But is more easer. This time is piece of news paper. So that will be more easer, we can read the news and fit it together. ( But it is a Chinese news paper, so some of the people doesn't know how to read Chinese will be harder.) That was so easy~ I think Ms.Smith tell us to do this things because we had learn about Alfred Wegner. And Ms. Smith want us to understand his Theory will be hard. Be

Watching the video of geography I learn a lot of thing, so i just a list six. 1. The World in Spatial Terms - This is means looking at the map a some info, to understand some spatial thing of our world. 2. Places and Regions - This one is means look at their's religion, members, habit. This step help you understand confuse part of our world. 3. Physical Systems - This one is just working with the natural environment. 4. Human Systems - This step is for people's characteristic. And person and person's interaction. 5. Environment and Society - This is talking about how does human change the environment and how does the society adjust to environment. 6. The Uses of Geography - This one is basically using geography to explain the past and foresee to the future. Geographic Skills: 1. Ask question. Ask some question of basic geography questions. 2. Get information from geography. Do some work for geography. By learning get info. Like other people's former work or also go out

Couples have been banned from kissing at a railway station in Cheshire because it holds up other passengers. Who? Those people in the railway station. What? Few of the people said that the date can't kiss with other in railway station, because if they kiss each other in the station those business people will been late with their business. So, they put a sing that is talking about "NO KISSING". When? 2/24/09 Where? Cheshire Why? Because they don't want any one get heart and unconformable. Questions : 1. Kissing or hugging is a body language to the date that tells he or she that some one love him or her. So, how come they can said this is forbid? That is ours freedom. 2. I don't think the business people don't even kiss her or his date or wife or husband. So, if they want to have this deal they must make sure they wouldn't do some thing is forbid in station next time... The post is from here ! Author : No idea

A mental map of this trip by myself This morning I want to eat a hamburger. So, I go to the 7-11 in Chiao Tung university next to my house. Walking out the building of my house just in the right side, there is a Chinese temple. A lot of people is worshiping at there, and some people are burning the divine money. I can smell of the burning paper and some sense of incense. In front of the temple, I can see the sign of the university. That is a gold color words written Chiao Tung university. Beside the gold words is a gate, a north side gate. Following the sidewalk, there are pines tree grown straight and tall, many pine cones have fallen on the road. Raising my head, I can see the big clock tower over my right side. After some walking, I see a girl dormitory, some of the boys are waiting for their girls friends front of the building. Opposite the building there is a bicycle booth. There are many different kinds of bike parking there. At the mean times I can smell the delicious smel

Geographic is a big story that tell us the world we are living today and tomorrow. Geographic in literati is means to describe Earth. The geography is interested that looking at the feature who is create the physical environment about Earth. Geography is also talking about people and places. For example like, languages, religions, eat. For most of the Asia the most main food is rice. The rice's good or bad depend on the season on the rain. So the farmers must to decide what time is the best time that the rice can being in the best conditions and nice shape. But if you go to the farm early or late, too early the rice can't get enough water they can grow, and if you came too late, the rice will get drowned. Globalization: 1. International 2. Economic 3. Social 4. Connections

Geography is the things that describe of the Earth. For example like land, lake, trees kind of things like that. Their are two kind of Geography, Human Geography and physical Geography. Human Geography basically is study of human. for example like human thinking, religion, languages...etc. The human geography is just talking about their habits. And the physical geography is just study of earth king of like scientists. Those of things I talking about up their is just a little tiny things, their are more things that we can learn. Hope you can learn as much as you can. :}

Absolute terms : 24deg47'47.02" N 120deg56'34.78" E Relative terms : Next to Xiang Shan Elementary school is our school HIS. After finding out where is our school, find out the room 103, that is our Art room.

1. Summarize -- -- What did we do for SMASH Day? In the beginning, Mrs. Smith tell us that she has a task for us. She sent us a carton, 4 mirrors, 10 peace of paper and two tapes. She wanted us using those material to build up a periscope of submarine. Our group, Chris and me, tested reflection of mirrors again and again trying to find out what is the best angles of vision. After we set up the angles, we cut the carton to pieces. We don't want to waste out our tapes, so we inserted the mirrors into the pasteboard directly. Finally we can saw the stuff above the desk by angling the two mirrors. But we waste too much pasteboard making us could not build up the box of periscope. That was sad. -- What was your mission? In our group, Chris and me, should test the reflection of mirrors trying to find out what is the best angles of vision. After we set up the angles, we must cut the carton to big pieces. And make up a periscope. -- What supplies were you given? Mrs. Smith tell us th

You know readers, I am not really sure i understand what is the question means. So, if some of the answer you think that is incorrect just ignore it. OK ? Where is important because the environment will change your person view some times. A lot of time people change their mind because the world. So, when the world change you change..

I learn a lot of things in Mesopotamia and Egypt's group. The Egypt is talking about that they are two kind of the people in Egypt before and now. The old Egypt is like 9 and 31 dynasties. But the civilization began around 3150 B.C. and ended in 31 B.C., when the Roman Empire conquered Egypt. This is the oldest world in Egypt. The other kind is too much so I don't explain too much. Talking about Egypt, the first thing you will think about is what ? Is Pharaoh, Pyramid, or something weird ? No, the first thing I thought is the word they write it on the wall, the word is using little pictures. In old Egypt, they will writing the thing with a paper which is made of reed. And they will writing all of the things on the paper, sounds like a journal or diary. And the other thing is very important is the clothing. Their cloth are us good us now, most of the cloths are made by linese. Only the king can wear the white cloth and neckless. But that is just the simple wearing. Wit h the Mes

In Broad Oak Primary School their teachers show a video to the children that teach them what is the correct management when you are sick. But some of the parent common that just wasting their time. So some of the students also been asked to stay at home with their parents and looked at it the web site called " Sneezesafe". Under the heading ’Tissues to the rescue!’, children are told："Nathan still has a runny nose, but now he knows that sniffing is not very nice. And Nathan is not going to wipe his nose on his sleeve. He’s going to blow his nose with a tissue." Who? The students What? The parents are said that school shouldn't teach this kind of things, so the school that the parents go to the Website and tech the student by them self. When? I don't know Where? Broad Oak Primary School Why? The parents think that they are waisting their time to study this kind of thing

Today we watched a video called "Life after people". That video is talking about if all the humans disappear at once. What happen will it be ? A day, a year, ten year, what happened will the city become ? That is a science video, in my view i think that is kind of funny. Because: 1. Humans wouldn't disappear at once 2. If the mill keep working like few years with no humans, it will destroyed the world. So if it keep working and working, those animal wouldn't have this chance to come to the city. They must been killed. For example like, if all the people on the Earth gone at one time, except Taiwan, what happened ? What kind of things will it be ? Human is an animal that they will help each other. If all the human are gone that will be simple. Because no one is one the Earth any more. But this time is not the same, Taiwan's people alive. But they must have some thing it eat, after all Taiwan's human will get out of Taiwan because no more food on this land. Unti

Which of the learning outcomes did I use in my learning? 1. In this semester's humanities class, we had learn a lot of the learning outcomes and their example. In my personal view, I think most of time is Active learner. That is kind of weird to some of the people know me. Because a lot of time you guys saw me, I am like taking break time. But the truth is not, I learn a lot of thing in my life of HIS. Now I am not talking about class work, I don't like class work too much. You see, most of time you learn things is not really from teacher or some of the adult, it's from friends. I don't what do you think. But my english, skills, ritual of the other country. But some times they will told you what they think, but the most of time the make some mistake. So you can't believe all of the thing they told you. How did I use each of those learning outcomes? How can I describe each one? You know, been a active learner is not so hard. Some of the people thought that active l

The daybreak at day 11, in Sulawesi there is a tanker sinking. A part of the passenger said that a big billow come up, and all the passenger fall in to the water. There are 260 people on the tanker when it sink. The official has make sure that 18 of the people has saved by fishing man. Official had dispatch the other boat save them, but the weather is too ruin, so they didn't saved all of them. Questions : 1. How come they couldn't make sure there is no storm before the tanker went out. 2. Why when they saw the storm, and they didn't be more faster to save them?(I means's they stop searching.) 3. Why the official people get this mission, they didn't go quickly? Here is the " link "

In this world, some of the people are rich. Some of the people are enjoy the freedom. But, do you ever think about that in our society, some of the people are slavery? They couldn’t go to school. They have been slash, been revile, even been killed. Don’t be shock, it is true. Those of thing have occur in Sudan, India even then America. Most of them are aborigine. Invaders grab their things, land and women. Suddenly, invaders makes them been slavery to serve them. The employer said if they can pay the money to redeem themselves, they can get freedom. But it can’t be true, the employer wouldn’t pay them money. From one generation to another, them have to work every day from morning till night. If they run alway they will been killed. If they are sick they must to work all day long too. If they getting tired and been slow, they been punish. Suggests read it

This time in Humanities class, we had seen a movie called " Ten Commandments". I saw many religions, people and technology in this movie. I think those people who with different culture could be divided into two groups - ancient Egyptian and Israel. Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh is a title used in many modern discussions of the ancient Egyptian rulers of all periods. Ramesses II is the Pharaoh of the Oppression as is traditionally thought. pharaoh also were used on the occasions when a female ruled. Initially, the rulers were considered the sons of a cow deity, and they occupied her throne to rule the country and conduct divine service in religious rites. Common citizens Most ancient Egyptians were farmers tied to the land. Their house were restricted to immediate family members, and were constructed of mud-brick designed to remain cool in the heat of the day. Beliefs in the divine and in the afterlife were ingrained in ancient Egyptians. Pharaonic rule was based on the divi
