Task 3:

Your sister has bought a new piggy bank as a birthday gift for her best friend.Upon seeing the present,her best friend returned it to her immediately and said that its material gives a clear view of the amount of coins and dollar notes she has put into it and she does not like the idea.

Your sister looks at the piggy bank again and she cannot figure out what is wrong with the material of the piggy bank.She approaches you for help.

She needs you to tell her what is wrong with the choice of the material for the piggy bank and what would be a better material in this case.As the gift is quite costly,she wants you to come up with solutions to alter the design of the piggy bank by ensuring that people cannot see the amount of coins and dollar notes put in

You are encouraged to present to your sister creatively.



Answer:I think that people would be able to see through and be tempted by the thought of stealing some money and that is why she doesn't like it.You could use porcelain as a substitute or if you want to alter it ,you could paint it or decorate it with coloured paper.

Self - discpline

In a school there was this lazy fat transfer student named John.He always failed in his exams and it took him 20 minutes to run one lap. He only had 0 friends often disobeyed his teachers by hurling vulgar words at them.

He,after a month of school felt left out as, everybody ignored him and always looked down on him.He ,being lazy didn't change his attitude.Days,months and even years passed but he still didn't change his attitude and got even lazier than before.He insulted people,skipped classes,fought frequently and was even expelled for one month.

He then decided to take action and turned over a new leaf.He cut down on fried,fatty foods and exercised regularly,he learned lots of new things and finally became top in class and in the whole level.He also learned to control his anger.He has made lots of new friends which treat him well.

He has learnt a lesson which is,to change your attitude when you see that people around you feel that you are uncouth.He has learnt self-discipline and hopes that other people who are like him can also turn over a new leaf.

Entry 18: Reflective Time for Science (Light Energy)

My parents on the light when they watch the television,the basement of our condominium lights up when nighttime falls,the street lamps lining the street also light up at night,the lights at the bus stop illuminate it and while walking back home at night , we use it to find our way home.Light helps me do my homework at night and practically helps our whole family do lots of stuff.I think a world without light is as good as a world without sight,we need light to do almost everything and without it the world will be covered in darkness.

Entry 17: Classroom Cleanliness

I think that the classroom isn't clean because I don't think that we have acted enough to prevent the classroom from being dirty.I think it is important to keep the classroom clean because it provides a better learning learning environment for us students.We keep the classroom clean by sweeping it once in a while or regularly and I sometimes participate in cleaning the white board and I have learnt to cooperate with people through this activity.

Entry 16: Influenza A H1N1

Influenza A H1N1 is a virus contracted by pigs. It spreads when a pig contracts the virus and the pig is then eaten by humans or comes in contact with humans the virus is transmitted and the person will pass it on to other people.China, Japan, Philippines, Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia ,Laos and Vietnam. In many countries, schools have been closed down to prevent or try to slow down the spread of the virus, trace travel history to infected countries so that such people who do so will be quarantined, they have also advised people to avoid crowded places and to have high standards of hygiene so as to not get infected with the influenza. Initially, it was thought that high fever was one of the symptoms of H1N1 but recently, it has recently been discovered that it was not necessary the case as low fever could also been a symptom. however, i believe its necessary to take our temperature as a precautionary measure. Singapore has requested people to declare their travel history honestly so that prior notice will slow down community spread of the virus, we are also told to stay a metre away from each other as well. I wash my hands regularly and keep good hygeine.

Entry 15: SA 1 Review

I think the exams have been a fair test because the topics that we were tested on were the topics that we learned.I think that I have not done well enough and I think that the cause of it is that I haven't been putting in effort or I haven't been trying hard enough.I think that the enrichment classes are useful as they help improve my studies and I can learn new things from these classes.I think my home tuition has helped because I am learning alot from it.I will study harder and willsurf the internet for more information.I think the school should have more classes which will help us gain more knowledge.
