VON THUN'S FARM

During my summer vacation I went to Von Thun's farm. It was not so far from my house so my family had no trouble getting there. It was very exiting. First we went bluberry picking.I think I picked the most berries. Then we bought some eggs and the blueberries.

A Moon Poet

The Moon

Oh look at the nighttime sky holding a ball of small and big craters,the so very flat highlands in the ball in the sky, hey look at that face! Its staring right at me! If only I could be like the man in the moon. Or probably even Neil Armstrong the first astronaut on the moon. But whatever is going to happen I sure am going to be an astronaut !

The Moon (haiku)
Look at that white ball
That white ball full of craters
White ball in the sky

Washington D.C

Day before yesterday I went to Washington D.C. It was so much fun. First we went to Capital Hill. So we went to the visitor center. You should have saw the security there were 10 guards per door! Then we went to get our passes. First we got to go to what looks like a movie theater that showed the history of Capital Hill. Then we went on the tour we had other places to go so we only stayed half the tour. Then we went to the gift shop and got I got a copy of the Declaration of Independence, and my sister got a copy of the Constitution. Then we went to the Smithsonian Institute it was almost closing time so we only went to the air and space museum. There was this giant airplane that you can go inside and you could control it! Then we went to a lecture about airplanes. I learned 3 routines a pilot uses. Roll,Pitch, and Ya. Then there was this part called" on the moon". It was a bunch of rocks found on the moon and a half satellite. Then there was this real rocket ship but it was too big so they cut off the top. Then we went to the Washington Monument but we couldn't go inside so we just took a picture of it outside. Then we went to the White House but we couldn't go inside so we just took a picture of it outside. Then we went to the Lincoln Memorial but it was closed so we just took a picture of it outside.



Labor Day

Today is September 5. It is a holiday. Can you guess it? Well if you guessed Labor Day you guessed right! Today is Labor Day, a holiday when people work very hard. Its a holiday so no one goes to work or school. But the only reason people don't have to go to work are school is because there is some things in your house that need to be cleaned,organized etc. But still you can have some fun. Not only is it Labor Day for me but it is the last day of summer vacation for Monmouth Junction Elementary School. I cant wait! I got everything ready for school.

Chapter 6 Quarter,Half Note,Half Note Dot,and Whole Notes

The half note has two beats.The half note dot has three beats. And last but not least the whole note has four beats.



Chapter 7 The Treble Clef and The Bass Clef


When you learn how to play the piano there are things called the treble clef and the bass clef. A treble clef is like a swirl with a J under it. Whenever you see a note nearer to the treble clef than the the bass clef play the note with the right hand.The bass clef is like a swirl followed by two dots.If you see a note that is closer to the bass clef than the treble clef play the note with the left hand.

Chapter 9 Bar Lines
When you learn how to play on the piano there is some thing called a bar line.There is a way to tell which note is which.The note that is below the bar line and has a line cut through it is called middle C.The note that is below the bar line and does not have a line cut through it is "D". The note that is cut through the first bar line is "E".The note that is between the first and second bar line is "F". The note that is cut through the second bar line is "G". The note that is between the second and third bar lines is"A". The note that is cut through the third bar line is "B".




Chapter 10 Time Signature and Measures
The first number in the time signature means how many beats or in a measure. A measure is line that separates a big song into little pieces.

I hope you enjoyed reading my computer-book! Good luck with your piano buying and playing experience.
