Group Music Evaluation

This week for music we were told that we were performing our song. I was happy with my performance because we all performed and we didn't mess up. We were successful because we all practiced a lot and performed it without messing up.Next time I would try to use the left had as well because it would've sounded better. 

Christmas Music

The purpose of christmas music is to share the christmas tradition with everyone. They are made for people to enjoy the music and the traditions that come with it. My favourite christmas carol is Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, I like the song because it seems really cheerful and happy. Like every other country, New Zealand has some versions of christmas music. Some of the songs are Summer Wonderland, A New Zealand christmas and more.

Constellations

In science we were given the task to create a star map of four constellations that were close together. I chose to make Aquarius, Capricornus, Microscopium and Pisces Austrinus. I chose Aquarius because it is my zodiac sign, I also chose the others because it was close to aquarius. The first thing I did was cut out a cardboard and black piece of paper in the shape of a circle. then i mapped out my constellations with pins and string and secured it with pva glue and let it dry. We then took out the pins, named the stars and one sun. The difference of astronomy and astrology is that astrology is theories that aren't always backed up with evidence. Astronomy is the actual study of space science. people have used star maps as a way of navigation / travel. people who have done this are polynesians. Polynesians have used the southern cross, a constellation to find out where they needed to go.

Death Sentences In New Zealand

Death Sentences shouldn't be allowed back into New Zealand's law. This is my opinion because I find it would be the easy way out for a lot of people. People go to jail for as little as trespassing and as big as murder. When people have multiple felonies they could go to court. When they go to court they decide if they are guilty or not and how long they stay there. Depending on how bad your felonies are you could stay there for the rest of your life, which is very long. If we had the death sentence people would get the easy was out and they wouldn't pay for their crime. If someone was also framed and they died, if police found out after they died the real person who did the crime it would be too late. It would be easy for people with huge felonies to get the easy way out of jail time. That's why I think that death sentences shouldn't be allowed back into New Zealand.
