Reflection March 28th 2012, Wednesday

Today, was a good day :) We got back our performing assessment scores and let me tell you, i was very suprised because i didn't expect to get a good score and i got a 9/10. We also didn't have instrument class today because we spent the whole 2 sessions getting our scores and filling in reflection booklets about the blogspot reflections. I think i did really good on reflections because i always update my blog. TEEHEE. Some people who didn't get the best scores got to redo today too. P.S this will be my last reflection for a while because tomorrow's the last day of term 3 and we have a break for a week. Xx

Reflection March 23rd 2012, Friday

Today, we didn't have school.

Reflection March 21st 2012, Wednesday

Today, Mr Sadrakh announced that he has already decided on our scores for the criterion: "Personal Engagement" which is our attitude during Music classes. He didn't tell us the results though. Today was also a big day because we had our assessment to play our melodies/our group's melodies. I think i did pretty bad. Worse than usual. I think it's mostly because
1. I didn't have time/really practice
2. I partly forgot that the assessment was today
3. I was really nervous and unconfident
I know i could've done better but it's also unfair because we had to be put in a situation where some people are so insecure they can't perform their song. Well, i tried though. I'm not gonna get a high score but i'm just saying that at least i had the experience. Also, we did't have much time to practice in instrument class because Mr Sadrakh just converted most of our melodies last week and we didn't get as much practice as the other instrument classes. Sorry. I speak the truth. Please don't sue me.

Today, Mr Sadrakh told us about the criteria's in Music and the MDW which each of us have (Music Development Workbook) We also reviewed about our blogs and reflection. I don't have all my reflections in my music book because i either don't write it or just write bulletpoints so i can remember what we did today and later write the REAL reeflection in the blog. Mr Sadrakh has already converted my melody into A Major so it is easier to play, he did it during Instrument class and we just tried to practice the melodies as much as we can.

Today, we just reviewed our FINALE scores and why we got them. I got 8/10 because i didn't put the chords. We are done with the Music part of our IDU now. Right before Music class we had PE and we used our group's song for the movement composition performance and it does fit. We also finished the English oral assessment. I think our group's music composition was pretty good, in Instrument class Mr Sadrakh got some of our FINALE works and he converted them into A Major so it'll be easier to play. He hasn't converted mine yet because i haven't printed more copies of it plus we didn't have enough time to.

Reflection March 9th 2012, Friday

Today, we had to perform our PE assessment with our group's melody so we could practice. Our group didn't use the melody though because Mr Sadrakh had to do something with the keyboard. We didn't perform that well :( (>_<)because we were nervous, shy an dwe din't really remember the movements. Plus, it was awkward because there wasn't any music and it was very quiet and we are the only group in 7B who has a boy and a girl in it so it is kinda hard to work together. CUT US SOME SLACK! But the good news is that Mr Sadrakh gave us our booklet scores today aand i must say i'm quite satisfied with my score. i got 6/8 YAY! As much as i would love to get 8 i din't but i more than passed and it's 80% so, im good. :P :D :) And today we finally did something in instrument class \o/ we practiced our A Major scales because Mr Sadrakh said he would convert all our melodies/group melodies into A Major. It wasn't really hard to play but at first it was because well, we never relly played the violin in school for a long time. After a few times we got the hang of it though ;)

Reflection March 7th 2012, Wednesday

Today, we got our FINALE and booklet scores. I got 8/10 for the FINALE task, which I think is pretty good considering i don't know how to put the chords (i don't understand it's not my fault)I asked Mr Sadrakh how to put them but he said he'll teach me next time because we didn't have enough time. In Instrument class we got to actually play something. We practiced the A Major scale a little which is better than nothing or usual because then we would have to bring our violins for nothing :P

Reflection March 2nd 2012, Friday

Today, Mr Sadrakh just asked people that haven't submitted their blog URL (website)to write it down. I already gave it so no problem. Mr Sadrakh gave us a lecture on LIFE and something about arrows and chickens in our instrument class (not that that's bad..) I have nothing else to write so this is a very short reflection. I'm sorry. :P :D Furthermore, nevertheless and jacuzzi. Till next time...
