I am going to write about the first crusades
The first crusade's destination(goal) was to conqueor the Jerusalem.
In the time (1076) All the muslims could not cooperated one another, so the first crusade Alexius I of Constantinople was torturing Muslims, but Muslims could not comport anything. The first crusade invaded "Nikea", and "Antiokia". However there was a whole captain call "Ardemar" in the Muslimsm, but during the time that crusades were trying to invade "Nikea", and "Antiokia", he died. Therefore all the diginities and cooperative minds had gone so fast. Therefore Muslims would not be able to defense that huge offense from the first crusade. Finally the first crusade successed conqueoring Jerusalem. The first crusade invaded inside the Jerusalem castle, and they killed many citizens and stole a lot of money.
Through Siria and Palestine, and some other middle east countries, they became crusade countries.
(P.S - This movie was really hard to understand ,, Therefore I used some resources from internet :)) http://ko.wikipedia.org/wiki/%EC%A0%9C1%EC%B0%A8_%EC%8B%AD%EC%9E%90%EA%B5%B0.

Blood Red Horse Chapter5 HUM
I want to write about what I've found so far.
There are two brothers. Gavin and Will. Gavin is an older brother, Will is an younger brother. When they get together, they always fight each other. Once Will hit his older brother, and Gavin was bleeding. A girl appeared call "Elie". Elie is a really grubby girl who wears dirty clothes.
Elie swears at Gavin with Will, and it's because of Elie wants Will's profits. Elie will have to marry with Gavin in the future, this is because Gavin is son of the Sir Thomas and Elie is also from a castle , so they really connected each other, and here you might have a question. Why can' Will marry with Elie ? In the middle ages in Europe, when older brother could not get marry, then younger brother should wait until older brother gets married.
Will loves horses, he has a Scremanta, and it's light and speedy. However he complains about having Sacremanta. He wants more powerful horse than Sacrementa, such as a Stallion.
Will and Gavin are son of the Sir Thomas.
Once Sir Thomas attended a war, and he did not spend much time on build Hartslove Castle(There were a lot of deers around the castle, so they called it Hastslove castle). Therefore Hastslove Castle became a useless building.
Time passes and passes, Will becomes more professions on horses and wars.
The whole stories are about two boys and one girl. The adventure of a lifetime.

My role: Peasant farmer (hum)
My role for the middle ages is a peasant farmer.
I am going to write about what does peasant farmers do.
Peasant farmer was the lowest level of people in the middle ages. The farmers worked the fields daily, planting, harvesting, and fertilizing the plants. There are manor of the grounds, and peasant farmers should have payment to the manors for using the ground. Therefore peasant farmers should be always nice to the manor, and work hard.
Also kind of peasant farmer was craftsmen.
The craftsmen built their goods to sell, and paid a tax to the lord for their right to use the land. Their life mainly consisted of making their goods and services available to the public of the town, coming to help when the town or castle needed repairs, or training the younger generation with their craft. Their profit from the sales was used to buy food from the farmers, and other items which kept the cycle of sales and purchases flowing to keep the medieval economy going.

Two main characters in the book (Hum)
I want to introduce about two characters in the book.
One is will.
2 strong adjectives that can describe will: Angry, lovely.
If we watch Will in one way, I can think of "anger", because he fights with his brother "Gavin" a lot, he always argue with his brother. However when we watch him in another way I can think of lovely one guy who is full of anger like 7 or 8 years kids, an air inside his cheek, that looks really cute, but also angry, and also lovely. Therefore when we combine them together we can think of a lovely guy. Also he never gives up, he trys to get anything he wants, especially a horse.
Another chracter is Gavin
2 strong adjectives: Kind, mean.
Gavin is sometimes kind and sometimes mean. My reasons are as follows.
Will always making fun of Gavin, and they always fight each other, and I think that Gavin would be so sad of the situations, and people will think that Gavin is a dull guy, because he doesn't do anything to Will. If I was Gavin, I would flap in his face.
Gavin is also mean, because he also making fun of Will

Science smash day reflection
1. Summarize --
-- What did we do for SMASH Day? Smash day is a really greatful for me, because it's the only one day which we are out of stacks of studying. We do fun activities and there are always missions and we have to solve them.
-- What was your mission? our mission was to look inside the box with several materials, we have to make things to look inside, we had mirror and some pieces of box.
-- What supplies were you given? Materials were pieces of box, tapes and mirrors
2. Reflect -- Scientists often make a hypothesis, test it, and then change (or modify) their design to make it work. --
How many times did you have to modify your design? one
-- How did you know that you should modify your design? we have to get angles of the mirrors where do we have to put mirrors to see inside of the box.
-- How did you know what to do when you modified it? we thought and thought about how to make up things, and we found that how to look inside of the box.
-- How did your team communicate to decide how to modify your design? we communicated altogether, we connect siser with boxes that way we could have make our thing longer, and we put mirror at the celling that way when we look from down, we can look though the mirror.
3. Tips and Suggestions
-- If you could give a list of tips and suggestions to someone who is doing this for the first time, what would it be? What would you tell them to help them out? First of all don't be hurry, you have to be patient, you have a lot of time to do the activity. Therefore don make mistakes with being in a hurry. Think and think then when you are certainly sure, then you make a decision.
Also you really have to consider the angles of mirror, you have to think about the place where you watch your stuff from and things like that....
Although if you are being patient and really think you are going to make it !!
Good luck .

News Article (Hums)
The leaders of South Korea and the United States yesterday pledged to work together to end the North Korean nuclear programs through the six-way talks and prevent the reemergence of trade protectionism.
U.S. President Barack Obama telephoned President Lee Myung-Bak for a 15-minute conversation early in the morning to discuss North Korea, the global economy and bilateral alliance, their spokespersons said.
Obama told Lee that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would visit Seoul in February.
"President Obama stressed the importance of coordination through the six-party talks to resolve the North Korean nuclear dispute," Lee`s spokesman Lee Dong-kwan said.
The Obama government is widely expected to push bilateral negotiations with the communist country in parallel with the six-nation mechanism.
"President Lee appreciates the new U.S. administration`s demonstration of a strong resolve with regard to the North Korean nuclear issue," the spokesman added.
Obama`s spokesman described the talk as "warm and substantive."
"The president conveyed his deep commitment to the United States-Republic of Korea alliance. Both presidents expressed their intention to expand cooperation on global issues," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said in a statement.
The two leaders also "agreed to work together, including at the G-20 summit in London, to stabilize the global economy, to spur growth, and to get credit markets flowing," he added.
Obama warned against the temptation toward protectionist trade policies, and Lee responded in agreement.
"We should keep in mind the lesson from the Great Depression that a return to protectionism will delay an economic recovery," said Lee.
The Obama administration is expected to request renegotiations on the free trade agreement signed in 2007 between the two countries. The deal has yet to get approval from legislatures of either country. Washington seeks to ensure U.S. cars get a wider access to Korean markets.
Obama said Clinton will visit Seoul in February for consultations on pending issues between the two allies, the Korean presidential spokesman said.
The U.S. leader also said he expects to meet Lee at the G-20 summit in April.
It was the second telephone conversation the two leaders have had. On Nov. 7, Lee congratulated Obama on his election.
what: talking about North Korea nuclear programs
where: at home they called each other and talked
how: with phone
how long: 15 min
why is this important ?
This is important, because south Korea has a lot of danger with this.
Korean war is not finished yet, they're just taking a break.
It's not finished !! Suddenly North Korean might just invade in a moment to Korea.
Therefore America and South Korea really need to discuss about this huge problem and make a decision quickly about this.

Events article (Humanity)
The International Monetary Fund said yesterday that it expects the Korean economy to be the worst performer in the G20 in 2009 because of the country`s sensitivity to export demand.
In its latest outlook for Asia and global economic developments, the IMF said Korea would post 4.2 percent growth in 2010, when the global economy is expected to start recovering gradually.
It said the average of Korea`s GDP for 2009 would be 4 percent lower than the 2008 average, due mainly to slow recovery from a 5.6 percent contraction at the end of 2008. The IMF previously projected 2 percent higher GDP in 2009.
The revised outlook for Korea is the worst among its forecasts for G20 nations. The IMF said the euro-zone economy would be worth 2 percent less and Asia`s newly industrializing economies, 3.9 percent less.
For Korea, 4 percent lower GDP would be the worst figure since the 6.9 percent annualized reduction in 1998 when the nation was hit by the Asian financial meltdown.
The IMF forecast that the global economy is expected to grow by 0.5 percent in 2009, the slowest pace since WWII.
It is inevitable that export-dependent Korea, as well as Asia`s newly industrializing economies, will suffer drastic decline in exports due to falling global demand, the IMF said.
Korea`s exports in January plunged by a record 32.8 percent from a year ago to $21.7 billion, making the trade balance swing to a deficit of $2.97 billion.
By quarterly growth, the economy will shrink 0.8 percent in the first quarter, hit a bottom in the second quarter with a 0 percent growth, and start to recover with a 0.7 percent growth in the third quarter and 1.1 percent growth in the fourth quarter, it added.
"The (prediction of) a 4 percent contraction is quite shocking, but we have to pay attention to the possibility of the world`s fastest recovery next year," Vice Finance Minister Hur Kyung-wook told reporters in Gwacheon.
"The government will make all-out effort including fiscal spending and liquidity injection to boost the domestic demand."
The government has allocated about 140 trillion won ($102 billion), or 15 percent of GDP, in liquidity injections, tax cuts and stimulus packages. The Bank of Korea slashed the interest rate to a record low of 2.5 percent in January.
Not only the IMF but an increasing number of think tanks and investment banks have sharply revised down outlooks for Korea to negative growth averages.
UBS predicted a 3 percent contraction and Moody`s Investors Service suggested a 2 percent contraction. Standard & Poor`s said the economy would grow zero percent this year.
why: this is really serious problem in the world now.
who: all of us in the world
what: IMF problem
Where: all over in the world
How: The economy is causing a lot of problems, we need a clue for this.
This is really important, because it's a serious problem in the world now.
World should worry about this huge problem.
This is a serious problem for now.
We have to know how serious is this and make a solve, critical thinking !!

Reflection (Humanity)
I used an effective communicator.
An effective communicator, is that whenever you communicate with others you communicate with others effectively, and show respect .. etc
Here's how was I being an effective communicator.
I was speaking in the movie, and I was showing the pictures that people could listen and understood my presentation easily. If I just used a speaking without images, then audience would not be able to understand my presentation well and easily.
Through this movie project, I learned quite lot things. First of all I knew that I can communicate with others without using a hard words, I could use a pictures to remain audience.
