Assignment #4 Instrument Study: Drum Kit

Hello, Bloggers. I am doing the drum kit for the study. The drum kit falls in the percussion. There are multiple parts of the drum kit, like cymbals, snare drum, toms floor toms, bass drum, and high hats. This instrument plays in the treble clef, the drum kit was invented in the 15th century, the crusades and crusaders invented it. This instrument ranges from high pitches that can be reached by the small cymbals called splashes and then low by the bass drum/floor tom. To make a sound with this instument you need to have drumsticks and then you simpily hit the drums with the bead of the sticks. you assemble this instrument by setting up stands and the legs on the drums, you should always keep the high hat clapped and the snare off the snaredrum.

Assignment #5 The Golden Rule

Hello Bloggers, in this blog I will be talking about the golden rule the meaning of this rule it treat others the way you like to be treated, I remember when I was younger I was watching the T.V. Show called "Arther" it was my favourite show, and the bully guy is making fun of someone and the teacher told him to treat others like he wants to be treated. If everyone followed the Golden Rule then this world wouldn't have wars, we would be more kind, and discrimination would be gone, and world peace might even happen which would be impossibly hard to do. Sometimes people don't obey the golden rule because they don't know how for example they were brought up in a bad neighbour hood and in the neighbour hood alot of people were rude so it rubbed off on them so they think that is how you are supposed to act because they were brought up that way.

Behind My Name: Max

Before I started this assignment I thought my name was German because my parents told me so. I know my parents chose my name to be this because of Max Webster. After searching on behind my name I found out nothing from my name, but I did learn things about my name on baby names. I found out from the origin of Latin my name means little Maximus (which people call me sometimes) and in the origin of English my name means short-form for Maximillian which is not true for me because my name is Max. The rating of my name is 2 out of 5 stars which I beg to differ because my name is awesome! I think my name suits me. If I could choose another name I wouldn't because I like my name.

Discrimination Shall Stop!

Hello Bloggers, I'm here to talk about discrimination and how it should stop. I think discrimination should stop because it's just stupid. everyone should be treated the same. Stereotypes are probably what cause discrimination most. If someone heard that someone would do something just because they are a different race it's dumb. I think everyone should be treated the same and everyone is the same. Some people are mean, but that is not because of their skin colour that is because how they were raised, or what has happened to them in the past. I have friends of all races I don't care they are nice people that's all that count!
