Experiment

I did an experiment in class where I would fill a plate with water, put a lit candle in the middle, and cover it with a cup/jar. The outcome was that the water from the plate would all be sucked up into the cup.

How does it work?
The candle would burn out all the gases in the jar creating a lack of oxygen causing a change of pressure inside the jar. The flame heated up the jar and then once all the oxygen burned away, the candle would go out. The drop in temperature would create a vacuum-like suction to pull in all the water.

Piano Assessment

Havana - Piano

What grade did you get on your assessment? Are you happy with it? My grade was excellence and I am happy with my results.

What could you do to improve your grade? I could improve my grade by learning the entire song as I only did one page of chords which was the chorus as you can tell in the video.

What have you found enjoyable when learning keyboards? I like the outcome/results after practising over and over again then finally being able to play it smoothly. 

What did you find challenging about keyboard skills and why? I think the most challenging part is learning to play the song with two hands because you have to multitask and think about where both hands are going to move. Once you get the hang of it, it's so easy.

Music - Song appreciation

what is the name of the song? Despacito (cover)
who is performing the song? Peter Bence
What instruments are being used? Piano
What is something you find interesting about this piece? I think he put a lot of effort and time to master playing the song. He has excellent skills to use the entire piano to create different sounds. It was really cool how he even used the strings inside the piano to make a different sound.
