Writing

WALT: understand the purpose for explanation writing

So last week we had a session on Explanation writing. If yous dont know what explanation writing is it is when you have to explain what you're writing about. The task we had to do was that we had to write about something in the community and then do a S.E.E structure about it and have 3 paragraphs.

What u need in a Explanation writing is...

1. Title
2. Introduction
3. Paragraph 1,2 and 3
4. Conclusion

In the Explanation Writing Document I was writing about The House of Jesus. What I wrote about is The miracles he gave people, How he feed over 500 people,how he turned water into wine, how people pray to him and when he answers our prayers. After writing all of those paras  I had to find examples to back my statement. Then I was told to blog.

I haven't finished my writing but when im finished I will surely blog about it. What I found challenging was writing the examples because I think some of them didn't make sense so I changed it. What I enjoyed was nearly finishing. What I need to work on is coming up with some more ideas so if I finish this doc I could make another 1.

I hope you like Comment Feedback and Feedforward on what I need to work on.

Music Lesson 1-Song Writing Group

Music Lesson 1-Song Writing Group

Today we went to our Music lesson today and it was SongWriting

I am learning how to Song Write

Today for music it's quite different. So there are 5 different 

options you can choose to learn around in the areas of music. 
They are...,

• Songwriting
• Keyboard
• Drums
• Digital
• Guitar/Bass

I have chosen to learn about songwriting, because it was the 

first day we basically went through the elements or music, 

and the elements of a song. We talked about how to make 

music and what the Elements were in music and in a Song.

Elements of MUSIC

• Beat
• Rhythm
• Pitch/Notes
• Tempo
• Dynamics

Elements of SONGS

• Introduction/Intro - Beginning
• Chorus - Main Part (Repeats)
• Verse - (Not Repetitive)
• End/Outro
• Hook/Riff - Instrumental or vocal part to catch the listener
• Bridge - Change up
• Pre-Chorus -

Others:

• Bars
• Tune/Melody
• Harmony
• Instruments
• Chords

We also listened to different songs, and tried to find which 

parts of the song's were the chorus, intro, pre chorus, bridge 

and more... We were also given a task to complete for next 

week. Caleb (our Music Teacher) said we had to find 3 

different songs, and we had to try and find which were the 

parts of the bride the intro, and the chorus and more! I have quite 

decided what 3 songs I would like to research about and they are...

• Love on top - Beyonce
• Stay By Me - Sam Smith
• Beyonce - Listen

What I enjoyed about this lesson was that 

Everyone 

participated and contributed in the the work 

we were doing
