First lesson: Mother Tongue. At about 8, Mr Wang Jun walked into our class."QiLi". We greeted the teacher and started our class. We went through the words from the text book. And one thing I remember most clearly was our teacher talking about the Mother Tongue Department launching a donation drive. We could donate items that we do not use anymore like old clothes and toys? Haha.
Second lesson: Geography. HUMAN ENVIRONMENT. We talked briefly about the 4 main components of the human environment which was: population, settlement, agriculture and transport and communications. Last 10 minutes of the class we watched a video on population density, like how some countries are heavily
populated and some are scarcely populated in proportion to the
area of the country.
Then, it was recess time. As USUAL, I played soccer in the school field until the end of recess and returned to class.
Third lesson: It was PE-Theory but our teacher did not come so we 'chit-chatted' all 35 minutes. FUN?
Fourth lesson: Maths. Kind of a boring lesson... No offense to anyone reading this but I do prefer Ms Nooreny. First, started off with a maths test which i got 1/5 for because i didn't write the congruent triangles. Eg. Triangle ABC congruent to Triangle PQR. We learned about the scale on maps and the scale factor which was the factor of the length on the map and the actual length on earth. We got homework and ok ended lesson.
And then, because of the external validation, the teachers had to have a meeting i think. So, we were released at 1.05 pm which was after maths class so Hallelujah.
It's time for......PLANT OF THE DAY
Today's plant will be the MIMOSA PLANT, shy guy?
The mimosa close its leaves because a heat stimulus (hand) induces an electrical signal, similar to the electrical potential in nerve cells. When the electrical potential reaches specialized cells at the base of each leaflet, the folding is caused by a rapid efflux of potassium followed by rapid water transport out of the cells.
Oh no, i have to go to bed now, there is still school tomorrow! See you
