2012 Young Voice Super Festival

Zosia sharing her experience at the camp.
During summer Zosia participated in a few summer camps organized by Fubong Culture and Education Foundation 富邦文教基金會.


For one of the camps she went to Orchid Island 蘭嶼 off the south eastern coast of Taiwan to learn about the aboriginal way of life. At the end of the camp kids had to make a short film presentation about what they have learned.




Another camp was in Tainan, where she explored the newly opened National Museum of Taiwan History 國立台灣歷史博物館. During this camp she not only learned history of Taiwan, but also made a short feature film about one event from the history using the photos taken inside the museum.

For the last camp Zosia gathered a group of eight homeschoolers interested in film making and together they signed up for the film making camp. After a few days of learning about acting, working as a group and preparing a script for their movie only half of the groups was asked to stay for two additional days of filming. Zosia's group was not chosen to stay, but ... was offered an even better deal - they would be given time and an animantion teacher's help to finish their work back in Taipei. This way the Homeclub Image, as they call themselves, met for a few days in September to finish their work.


But that's not all ... The same group of eight homeschoolers was given an opportunity to learn more about photography during a special three  day photo session. The subject of their work was - graduation photo. The kids came up with some wonderful and very interesting photos which tell us a lot about how they see themselves.

 


The first weekend of December was the time for all the kids, who participated in Fubong's camps, to present their work - the films, the animations, the photos and the writings. Youngsters from all over Taiwan came to Taipei to see the premieres of their films and talk about their summer camps experiences.
The homeschooler's graduation photos had a special exhibit with their work printed in huge sizes. Everything looked really professional.

Animals Classification Lapbook

Last week Jaś has been very busy working on the animal classification lapbook. Lately it's been very difficult to get him interested in doing any kind of project, but to my surprise he has finished this lapbook in just a few days! I am really proud of him. I used a ready lapbook template from the wonderful Homeschool Share website, but I asked Jaś to writ all the information in his own handwriting instead of just printing the prepared text. Here are the photos of his lapbook: Jaś adding the finishing touches to the lapbook cover: Lapbook cover: The inside of the lapbook: Inside 'Classifying Living Things ': Animals with and without backbones are called:  Inside 'What are the four main Invertebrate Classes?': Inside 'What are the five Vertebrate Classes?': Mollusk characteristics Annelid characteristics: Arthropod characteristics: Echinoderm characteristics: Fish characteristics: Reptile char

Wszystko jest przedstawione jasno i przejrzyście. No i zawsze można wrócić do takiego lapbooka, otworzyć go i przypomnieć sobie co nie co.

Skąd się bierze 13-ty miesiąc w roku?

Tak zwany kalendarz chiński jest kalendarzem księżycowo-słonecznym, gdyż jest oparty na ruchu księżyca i słońca. Często jest też nazywany kalendarzem księżycowym, kalendarzem rolniczym 農曆 [nónglì] , kalendarzem Yin 陰曆 [yīnlì] lub też starym kalendarzem 舊曆 [jiùlì]. Czy wiecie, że czasami w kalendarzu księżycowym jest 13 miesięcy? I właśnie w tym roku będziemy mieć taką sytuację. Miesiąc to czas pełnego obrotu Księżyca wokół Ziemi. Księżyc okrąża Ziemię w ciągu 27,3 dnia. Z kolei Ziemia okrąża Słońce w 365 dób, 5 godzin, 48 minut i 46 sekund. Po obliczeniach okazuje się, że jeden rok słoneczny równa się 12 7/19 miesiąca księżycowego lub też 19 lat słonecznych równa się 235 miesiącom księżycowym. Jest to podstawa kalendarza księżycowo-słonecznego, a więc również kalendarza chińskiego. Innymi słowy: Chiński kalendarz opiera się na fazach księżyca. Miesiące chińskie zaczynają się od nowiu i pełnia księżyca wypada 15 dnia miesiąca. Ponieważ nów jest co 29½ dnia, chińskie miesiące kale
