Media Talking Test


In this video we tested the speech, light and the camera. The speech was slightly unclear and there was a slight humming in the background, the light was perfect, as there wasn't a lot of shimmering on the characters and the light stayed the same so it didn't go from light to dark to light etc. I'll continue this in a bit.

Google Using Tip’s

First of all, never ever just type something and Google it (Unless it is a basic search). Then you will find lots of worthless information. Because (For example) if you write black and white, it will find websites that say the word [Black] and [white] so they will be different words. But if you put [Black and White] it will search for websites that say that line. Don't put in any special punctuation or special characters because the search engine will ignore them.
Always keep it simple, Put in a few key words instead of lots of random words to make long sentences.
Think of the page you are looking for, E.g. Medical websites have science type words, like headache instead of hurting head.
Describe in as few words as possible E.g. [What is the weather in Finland] instead you should use [Finland weather].
Use descriptive words, like in the other one, use as little words as possible, and make sure the words tell very much about what you want,

Science Exercise.

Science:1. Things you eat Daily.
For breakfast I usually only eat one or two pieces of toast. (I usually eat white bread and, when we have brown bread I eat Brown Bread)
In school I have hot lunch when it is good. And if I don't take hot lunch I take a lemon tea and something else. (It differs)
When I come home I eat what we have for dinner and drink either milk or water and sometimes when we have Coke Zero. (We eat different things every day)
Before I got to sleep I take porridge or an apple (Green Apple).

2. Which foods are healthy in your daily diet.
My breakfast is healthy when I have the brown bread (It is brought from Finland).
I don't think my school die is very healthy.
The diet I have at home is sometimes healthy (It depends on what we have for food).

3. Things you do for general fitness on a daily basis.
After I have done my homework, I usually go see if anybody is outside or if they can come outside. If I can contact them and get them to come outside, we usually play hide and seek tag. (It is fun and also we run around a lot because we play in a big area).
On Tuesday I do Tae Kwondo and on saturday I do Boxing.
