I Want My Singapore Math

I hate Math. I opened my Math module and I tried to do the first thing about fractions and it was really really hard. I think I need a miracle before I can pass the Math test so I am doing this when I am ready. That's what I like about homestudy.

There might be help coming. My 7-year old cousin is doing Singapore Math every Saturday and he is doing very good and now loves Math. Maybe this would help me too. I hope my Mom and Dad would let me go to the Singapore Math tutorials, too.

Here is something about Sing Math I found in the Internet:



Mom, Dad....please....I want my Singapore Math!!!

Pictures of My Origami 折り紙

Pictures of My Origami (折り紙)


Paper Crane
One of my first origami i made.










What is Origami?


Origami (, from ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper") is the traditional Japanese Folk of paper folding, which started in the 17th century AD and was popularized in the mid-1900s. It has since then evolved into a modern art form. The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of material into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques, and as such the use of cuts or glue are not considered to be origami.

The number of basic origami folds is small, but they can be combined in a variety of ways to make intricate designs. The most well known origami model is probably the Japanese Paper Crane In general, these designs begin with a square sheet of paper whose sides may be different colors or prints. Contrary to popular belief, traditional Japanese origami, which has been practiced since the Edo era (1603–1867), has often been less strict about these conventions, sometimes cutting the paper or using nonsquare shapes to start.

That picture above was my first Origami!

Letran as Described by Wikipedia


Colegio de San Juan de Letran, San Juan de Letran or simply Letran is a private Roman Catholic institution of learning located in Intramuros, Manila, in the Philippines. The college was founded in 1620. It is owned and administered by priests of the Order of Preachers (Dominicans) of the Philippine Dominican Province. The school holds the distinction of having produced Philippine presidents, revolutionary heroes, poets, legislators, members of the clergy, jurists, and is the only Philippine school that has produced several Catholic Saints that actually lived and studied inside its campus. The campus contains two statues, representing the two foremost alumni in the fields of secular and religious service: former Philippine President Manuel L. Quezon and Vietnamese Saint Vicente Liem de la Paz. Also, Colegio de San Juan de Letran has the distinction of being the oldest college in the Philippines and the oldest secondary institution in Asia.

Welcome to my blog! I study at Letran's HSP (Home Study Program).
I take the test twice a week and study at home for the rest of the week.

My Favorite Modules
are: Science, TLE (Technology and Livelihood Education) and
Health

The hardest Modules are History and Math.

My first test I took was Science Module 1.

In Science Module 1 It was so difficult to memorize the science branches.
I read module 1 and I memorized the branches and took the test.


I wrote all the branches of sciences.

After that I studied for History Module 1 and had to take it a second time because I think I failed it the first time.

History Module 1 was so difficult until I found this Video in YouTube.

This Video tells us Why do we need to Study History...



Follow my blog everyday and you will get to know me better and about Letran's HSP.
