Love and Wisdom


Lessons of Love and Wisdom

Love can make us strong
Love can make this world become beautiful
Love will make this world become wonderful
But many do not know what love is actually
It is very easy to say "I love you"
But it is not enough just to deliver those words from our lips
What we need is the action of love
Action of love will show the beauty of this world
Action of love will bring this world come to us
Action of love will come and penetrate into the heart
And will make the heart as the mirror
The glowing heart will make the mind communicative with the other parts of the body
Then will collaborate to show the meaning of love in action



The following booklets are the old writing of mine which I almost forget
I only can find the two of my writings.

The Amazing Life Cycle of Monarch Butterfly

TEXT 1 

Monarch Butterfly Life Cycle


https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/life-cycle-of-a-monarch-butterfly-printable-book-6290469

"How long does a monarch live?" "Why do monarchs migrate south?" The answers to these two questions go hand-in-hand. Children ask them all the time. Most monarchs live from two to six weeks as an adult butterfly, but the Monarch's migration is the key to its yearly life cycle.

The total time frame for one butterfly's life cycle (one generation) is about 6-8 weeks......egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, butterfly. It grows inside the egg for about 4 days. It then munches milkweed and grows as a monarch caterpillar (larvae) for about 2 more weeks. The caterpillar's life inside the chrysalis (pupa) lasts about 10 days and its wonderful life as an adult butterfly lasts from 2-6 weeks.

February/March - hibernating monarch in Mexico and southern California reawaken, become active, find a mate, begin the flight northward and lay their eggs. Finally they die. These special monarchs have lived about 4-5 months through the long winter.

March/April-the 1st generation monarchs are born-egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, adult butterfly; May/June - the 2nd generation is born- egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, adult butterfly; July/August - the 3rd generation is born - egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, adult butterfly; Sept/Oct - the 4th generation is born - egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, adult butterfly .......but THIS generation does not die.

In migrates south and lives 6-8 months in Mexico or Southern California. They begin awakening and mating in February/March of the next spring, and then lay their eggs! Withered and tattered from their migration and hibernation they finally die.

The cycles goes on as the new baby caterpillars are born each spring and the cycle continues throughout the year into the next spring. MAGICAL and AMAZING!


TEXT 2

Monarch Butterfly

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRNw0WhsJMw
Monarchs are a primary example of true migration in insects. From their natural home in the Western  Hemisphere, they have spread to Hawaii, Indonesia, the Canary Island, and Australia. They are also known from the Mediterranean. Normal migration patterns in the United States in the fall lead to northern Mexico and California.

Monarch Butterflies have contrasting colors of black and orange, and are one of the most familiar of butterflies. Both sexes have the same appearance, and the wingspan is 3 to 4 inches. The well known caterpillars are banded with yellow, black and cream. Tentacles are present at both ends of the body of the caterpillar.

After you read both text 1 and text 2, let's analyze the differences between those texts.

Text 1 is an explanation text. It is because there is sequenced explanation in the text. It explains the life cycle of Monarch Butterfly. While text 2 is descriptive text. It describes the characteristic of Monarch Butterfly. However, there is no sequenced explanation in the text 2. To help you differentiate explanation text and descriptive text, look at the following table!

Songs grade XI

Songs for grade XI

Music offers many advantages for learning languages. Scientists have shown that listening to a song and humming along can help with language learning!











4 facts about language learning:
  • When singing, we try to reproduce sounds and tone, so our accent is less pronounced than when we speak.
  • Listening to music allows us to better assimilate the syntax and enrich our vocabulary because the lyrics of the songs are generally composed of informal expressions and words that we don’t necessarily learn when studying a language.
  • Listening to music helps with memorisation. According to scientists, singing new words makes them easier to remember. Do you remember how you learned the alphabet when you were a child?
  • Not only adults, but also infants and children can benefit from the advantages linked to listening to a foreign language.  Scientific research suggests that infants who listen to multiple languages as they grow will have better linguistic sensitivity in these languages in later life. \

Songs can also influence the feeling of someone, and songs also influence your feeling, your heart too. So during learning and staying at home let's to be happy to learn and listen to songs. Though we are far but our heart is united. 

Listen and watch the following video!

Though staying at home, we are not alone. We can also sing together from our homes together.
Can you do that like those who are in the videos.
You know that this world is only in the hand of Allah. It is small. Look at the video, they come from around the world but they can sing together. How about you?
Let's try to do it!
Make 4 groups in your class! Then decide what songs that you can sing together, you may also sing the songs like on those videos too. The important thing that you sing from your homes. Just stay at home, stay healthy!.

Spread Love and wisdom!
