Learning Profiles

I learn best when I focus o details. Processes by analysis, verbalization, and writing. So I am able to pick up the details of information through the eyes and ears even under stress. Following step-by-step and auditory instructions is easy for me to learn about the topics and any writings. However, I am very emotional who can't control himself without any help from people. When I am under stress, I can't focus on big image or space and when people are talking I am not able to listen to the person who is talking over me. It's also my problem that I can not control myself but it is not easy. Therefore, I hope people understand well that I have troubles.

I need to be encouraged to understand and synthesize information from a whole perspective, ad explore ambiguity, emotions and movement. Furthermore, positive, enjoyable sensory-motor experiences will help develop the skills necessary to emotionally interact and fully access imagination, creativity and intuitive introspection. So when the condition of class is negative, I become clumsy, nervous and sad. Thus, the strategies that would help me in my learning is to encourage me to understand by facing to me with positive atmosphere.

I would like my teachers to know this about me that when the trouble comes, I get into serious emotion and look other point of my view or do something else. Then I listen really carefully to the instruction. I think that telling my teacher to leave me alone is very harsh. However, this is my way that I listen to the speaker. Furthermore, I don't make noises or actions that disturb class.

La Premavera by Botticelli

La Premavera, the painting that was drawn by Sandro Botticelli who was the famous Italian artist in Florence in 1478. It has a specific description that represents Venus celebrating the Allegory of Spring which means the arrival of spring. For this painting, Botticelli utilized the tempra on wood, the technique of mixing color paintings with combining the eggs. Furthermore, he added facial expressions, sfumato and the background which values the quality of the art that makes the mood of this art dark but delight.

As you can see, in this painting, there is Venus in the middle of the painting. To left side of our sight, we can see three women who are putting their hands and facing each other which informs us of the celebration of Florence. These three women were targeted by Eros' cubided arrows which make them to fall in the beauty of love. Eros is right above Venus. The other characters are the Greek mythology characters. The most important character among them is Mercury who is on the left side of our view. The reason why is, in this painting, the artist was perhaps trying to show us that he was controlling the clouds to move so the spring is able to come.

Botticelli drew this painting when Juliano de Medici and Simonetta were having a marriage. His main efforts to draw this painting was the love between them which could blame as Eros and Venus. The other significant point of the painting with his efforts was that, it is not about the christianity which should be the one of the story in the bible. Botticelli's purpose was to create and draw the new topic of the arts in Renaissance period. It means, he created the secularism. Therefore his creation from his art, 'La Premavera' gave artists and people to think about the new discover of art. The advantages of being away from the religious painting. From this period, La Premavera developed the freedom of art to become further away from the religion. This made other artists to paint their work with new techniques and knowledges into their real life that sometimes included the pious. They even made their own styles of art and shared their ideas of techniques with people and foreigns. In the conclusion, Botticelli's art affected the christianity to be weakened and the humanism and the secularism to be constructed more and more which made the set of the 'Freedom'.

Driving Forces of the Renaissance

( Venice ) ( Florence )

Rivalry would be the most driving force of the renaissance which could mention lots of changes. Architectures and structures were the example of increasing the rivalry between the city-states. The reason why was the beauties and attractiveness of anicient people's inventions were tempting lots of popularity. For example, if people believes Florence was much safe and beautiful place to live as likely as birds and butterflies flowing in the air than Venice, they would come over to Florence. Therefore this effected the technics on building and designing the structures and either adding some of their ancient shapes for the details. Because of rivalry, they could develop faster than they would have without the rivalry.

My Object

Turning on an electricity for long time wastes money, your time and your health so stop visiting sites and hitting my parts of keyboard. Time equals to a gold, use your time wisely. From now on, I really prefer you to know what you do and stop those actions which always make my life harm.

First of all, you always smash me with your fists and shut me down with buttons. Those stuffs make me so angry and hot. I sometimes hear so many materials taggling each other in the machine. After that, this is what I get, some of smoke in the machine release out so badly because of the small holes on the pipe and some of gears glow because it will be working really fast. Then I have to calm it down with smelling all the pollutions which will also make my network connections to a mental retard.

Next, everyday when I send you a message to upgrade my protection system, you just ignore them and delay it. Do you know how my body is going to be? It will be filled with the germs and virus which are becoming stronger and alot. Therefore, I get diseases and that will poison every programmes what you are using from me.

Third, here are the solutions if you want to handle the fast network connections and good quality of sounds and videos. When you get mad on my network and games, I want you to calm down unless my gears will explode and it will never can be fixed by engineers. Maybe, if you have a chance go to see the engineers for me, I think you should give it to the engineer for a week or something to fix me. This is because I have so many injuries and broken materials.

Lastly but not the least, you should not be lazy to upgrade my protection system. This particular system is the most important to prevent all the virus from some of the sites. It even helps you to prevent from hacking to your computer. In addition, I wish you to delete programmes those are not needed for you because it takes so many megabites of my maximum place. When the unfortunate lucks come to you, it can effect me really bad and pain.

Portfolio Letter

April 15, 2010

Dear my mom,

Hi, welcome to my portfolio which has all my best and worst work that I did in this year. I am the guider who is going to introduce all my work, improvements and what I need to improve on. Although my grades are not good as the other student, I prefer you to be relaxed and try to understand what he’s saying. Whatever you don’t understand my words, I also prefer you to ask me about those.

In this year, I kept forgetting stuffs in and was lazy to do some of the assignments so there were few late assignments. Unfortunately, it means I had no responsibility and good mind to do the assignments. Furthermore, I was a bit noisy and didn’t listen to what teachers are talking about introductions. They sometimes get mad and think that I am bad. The problem is that I didn’t live ethically. I regret myself that I was going through the wrong way. At the last, I was not learning enthusiastically sometimes because I was thinking about outdoor activities.

As you see there are three problems that I need to correct and get myself to walk on the right way for my future. Firstly, for my responsibilities and my mind, I would like to turn all my assignments in the due time. I need to get my focus on them as well so that I can get a good grade. Secondly, to live ethically, I think I need to not open my mouse while teachers are talking introductions. When they finish the speech, I will ask them about questions or continue my speech with my friends. Lastly, I will learn enthusiastically with ending my thinks and start to focus on the teacher and friends sharing us information about the topics.

Thank you for reading this letter with opening your hearings to me. I hope you don’t scold me at outside to not fight each other because I will have to get my mind and life in the good way for my futures and grades. I will really try to get high grades than you expect.. I hope. Anyway, I am extremely thank you that you joined this conference. God Bless you, I wish that we are going to have a lunch in the Chinese restaurant and not going to fight.

Signature,
Namgi Kim

Power of the void

1. The International School of Kuala Lumpur provides an exceptional education that challenges each student to develop the attitudes, skills, knowledge and understanding to (silence) become a highly successful, spirited, socially responsible global citizen.



2. In the music, the composer gives us attentions with sudden emphasize and in the instant moment when it pauses, they get questions and try to solve what's the next. After the pause, it continues and give the audiences the solutions.



3. - Story -

1) ' The mystery box' It gave most of the void for the readers.

2) First, I guesses it was really good stuff to be voted. Even though, Tessie won the lottery but it wasn't nothing at all.

3) I wondered why did the story end without a conclusion and I got so much questions. After 5 P.M. when I opened the paper, I realized the teachers actually tried us to wonder about it to learn what are the voids.

4) The paper after the story filled me with a questions and the mind that gave me to solve what is it.

5) I thought black paper is for voting the people and the end, the person who gets alot will get a good thing. I learned the color was also a void.

6) I solve my questions which were what will be the result? and who is going to be voted?

7) The author made me lots of predictions and some of them were correct. It was quite amazing with putting a pause between the story.

8) I could understand this story easily without predicting if there was no void and stopping point.

9) This is because sudden emphasize or pauses by everything always give us predictions, questions and headache to solve it.

10) First, a pause gave me a headache to guess it. Second, before I opened the paper that Mr.Whiting gave me. I wondered what's the ending and what will be the given assignment for this. Last but not the least, honestly, I didn't get what did the lottery mean exactly.

Crispin

On the beyond chapters, Crispin had his own parents but now his mother was dead and his father was living somewhere on the earth or died like his wife. Therefore, Crispin is an orphan. Actually, He was called 'Asta's son' which means his mother's son. He is either called by a tile 'A wolf's head' because once he heard Aycliffe, the assasin and a lord talking about something in the secret place. Aycliffe noticed him was listening what they are saying. So Aycliffe started chasing him to be killed. Then the next day, Aycliffe blamed him that he did a bad crime. Among his mysterical travel, he met Father Quinel who saved his life several times. He gave lots of advice and told Crispin to believe Christianity. This is beacause if people believe in the god or Jesus Christ, they will probably keep them safe and bless their childeren. Furthermore, he told him that his father is whether a lord or on the high class. He gave Crispin a courage for his travel. Few chapters ago Crispin had a trap that almost get him into the death. Middle of escaping, he noticed that Father Quinel was dead. As Father Quinel told Crispin to walk for the path that always provide from the god, he continued the travel.
