Reflect on how you used the ATLs throughout this unit. Give evidence to support your answers. Did you manage to master any? I organize my time wisely when it comes to homework and I meet my deadline. I managed my behavior by focusing and listening in class. I try to spend little time on my device and I make sure my blog is up to date and I have to make sure my homework is done .  I ignore people and mind my own business if someone is trying to bully me  , and If I am stressed I solve my problems one by one . I'm still working on thinking more positive and I'm getting there . When I'm dealing with disappointment , I do get upset but I try to think positive and I know there is still time to improve.  I used reflective skills when we had  to reflect on peters theme , wolfs theme and hunters theme and when we had to post a treble clef on blogger . I Learned the treble clef and how to find a C in the piano . I also learned the name of the notes  for example : crochet , semi brieve , quaver , minim  and I also learned pitch  and what pitch means.
A: Knowing & Understanding ·         Explain what knowledge & Understanding you have gained during the unit. ·         Can you explain what you have been learning about during your Arts rotation? ·         Have you learnt any new arts language and terminology? ·         Have you learnt a critical thinking process for your rotation, explain it. ·         Have you learnt about the historical/cultural context of your art form? B: Developing Skills ·         Explain which Arts skills you have acquired and developed during the unit? ·        How did you use apply these new skills and techniques to create, perform and/or present art? C: Thinking Creatively ·        Explain what your artistic intention was, why did you make this art form what was its function and purpose? ·        Can you explain if you considered your work from an alternative perspective, i.e., the impact on the audience/or developed your work to communicate a focused message ·        How did you demonstrate the exploration of ideas during the unit? D: Responding ·         Evaluate and assess your artistic response during the unit. ·         Does your work demonstrated a movement/genre/theme/concept and how? 1.     What could you do to improve your performance in this rotation? 2.     What areas of improvement do you need to focus on? 3.     How could you improve your learning experience in the next rotation?						Use the questions to help focus your answers so you give a strong reflection on your individual performance: I’ve learnt how to play hunters , peters and wolfs theme. I also learnt tips and tricks to get your notes right  for the treble clef. The reason we did this project is too express art for example , the peters theme , using specific notes describes peter and try’s to express peters attributes . I’ve learnt how to think creatively , reflect and self management. The purpose of this is so that we can learn new and interesting things that we didn’t know and to test us on our knowledge . I  demonstrated the exploration of ideas during the unit by putting my work on blogger for proof. My work mostly demonstrates movement , for example the piano and the themes. I can put more effort to improve my performance this rotation. I need to improve on reflecting on my work. I can improve my learning by listening to instructions and working hard.

string family

string family


it's made of wood,its called the string family because the bodies of the string instruments, which are hollow inside to allow sound to vibrate within them, are made of different kinds of wood, but the part of the instrument that makes the sound is the strings, which are made of nylon, steel .

The strings are the largest family of instruments in the orchestra and they come in four sizes: the violin, which is the smallest, viola, cello, and the biggest, the double bass. the instruments make different sound some low pitched and some high pitched .

String instruments are known as chordophones, a term that comes from the Greek which means voice or sound. Sound is made by each instrument in the family by plucking with the fingers or rubbing the  bow across a string. Each instrument also comes in a variety of sizes.

the violin: The Violin is the smallest, and is  the highest in pitch. It is also the most popular. It is played with the instrument under the chin while sitting or standing.

The Viola: The Viola is very similar to the violin, only slightly larger, and is a little lower in pitch. It may be played while sitting or standing

the cello: The Cello is much larger and lower than the viola, and must be played while sitting with the instrument between the knees.
