Week 7- Coins

Last week's weekly topic was plants. This week, our topic is coins. This time, coins were not hard to find. They are everywhere at my house! I was really looking forward to take pictures using the lens, unfortunately, my partner Divina has the lens. Moreover, my teacher assigned  our class a small project. We will have to make a presentation about what we have done so far. I believe that this is a great activity, because my teacher does not know if all of us are on task. He also told us to change a setting to our blog, so that it would save him and other people time to comment on other people's blog. Back to What I was saying! Coins are something that people hate having in their wallets. I agree, but we also have to think that if there's no coins, there are no paper bill. The picture below are the coins that I keep in a jar. And I cant believe how many coins I have from different places around the world! And I cant wait to look at each one of them through my macro lens.

Week 6- Plants

Last week's weekly topic was flower. This week's weekly topic is plants. It is my partners turn, Divina to take three best pictures of plants. I believe that plants are helpful to every living things because it helps us to breathe in fresh air, while we animals help then by exhaling carbon dioxide. Bamboo is one of my favorite plants because it is the fastest-growing woody plant on Earth. Sensitive or sleepy plant is also one of my favorites because leaves fold inward and droop when touched or shaken, to protect them from predators, re-opening minutes later. That is why we chose plants for our weekly writing topic. Moreover, taking a picture of a plant should be really easy, unlike diamonds and insects that we did in the past few weeks. Furthermore, my teacher assigned us to do a brief presentation about our project. Later on, we will all present it in class, and I think that this is a good activity, because we have a chance to share and get to know our classmate's project and what they have done so far.
