Her maids will send her food by knocking the only door in the tower and Rapunzel will open it. Soon after that Rapunzel’s presents had been sent. She happily open all present. There is only one present that she doesn’t like. It’s only some bean seeds. So she told her maid just to plant it on the garden.
So, the next morning when Rapunzel wake up she saw a giant beanstalk. She thought it wil bring her some where very beautiful with lots of food, jewelries and dresses. So, she went all down the stairs and went out with her best dress and jewelries. She climb up the beanstalk carefully. When she finally reach up the top of the beanstalk she saw an old man.

Religion Hw-Gr. 6

Religion: Why Do We Need To Pray?

First we need to pray because praying is the same like talking to God. We need to talk to God privately. Not in front of the crowds or in the roads. We can talk to God by closing your self in your room and talk to God. God can see us and He will give us award for doing it in the proper way. You also can read the Bible and find a verse that talk about this, too.
Secondly, we need to be grateful to what God had given us when we pray. Maybe sometimes we don’t know that we’re lucky because we had a all five senses. But maybe some people is blind or deaf or maybe un able to speak or more. That’s why we have to be grateful to God for all things that we have.
Third thing is we need to confess for all sins that we do. If you don’t want your sins to be heard you can pray in your room quietly and confess all your sins to God. You know God will hear your confession and forgive you sins. But you have to promise that you won’t do it again. Sometimes we can learn from our mistakes so we won’t go into the same mistakes over and over again.
Fourth fact why we need to pray is we need to ask for his help and blessings. Also we can ask God for healthiness and happiness, If we have a problem and it seems that there are no way to solve it, we can ask God’s help to guide you to solve the problem. We can talk anything to God as long as its not about doing bad things to others. Of course God doesn’t want us to do bad things to others. That’s why He will not help you to do it..
The last thing or fact why we need to pray is we need to ask God’s help to help us to toughen our faith to Jesus Christ. If our faith to Jesus is tough of course God will protect us from the evil spirit around us. God will help us to fight against them.

In Banjarmasin, 1809, Pangeran Antasari was born. And, he always live outside the kingdom area, but he actually is a family of Sultan Banjar. Since he grew up between the commoner, Antasari become close to the commoners, knew what their feelings and their sorrow are.

At the same time, Dutch was trying to weaken Kerajaan Banjar. Dutch held some competitions to some of the kingdom groups in order to break the kingdom apart. And at that time Dutch also chose the sultan.

In 1859, Sultan Tamjid was the sultan of Kerajaan Banjar, while Pangeran Hidayat is the rightful sultan. The commoners didn’t like Sultan Tamjid because he’s favoritism to Dutch. Pangeran Antasari tried to defend Pangeran Hidayat. Afterward, Pangeran Antasari received help from the proconsuls of Hulu Sungai, Martapura, Barito, Plelhari, Kahayan, and Kapuas. All proconsuls wanted to eliminate Dutch from Kerajaan Banjar. The war broke out on 18 April 1859. In this war Dutch was in trouble. So, Dutch persuaded Pangeran Antasari by making promises to give him many things if he would stop the war, but Pangeran Antasari refused the offer.

In this difficult situation, Pangeran Hidayat surrender to Dutch and later on also all proconsuls. But Pangeran Antasari kept on with his fight. To him it was impossible to make peace or surrender to the Dutch.
In October 1862 he planned a big attack to the Dutch’s fort. But at that time they had a sickness named measles. So Pangeran Antasari got measles too and that sickness also took his live. He died in Bayan Begak, South Kalimantan, on 11 October 1862 and was buried in Banjarmasin.

Lorentz National Park Papua - "The Lost Green World"


Lorentz National Park is a giant rain forest park located in Papua Province, East Indonesia. This giant rain forest on top of big mountains is a big home of hundred kind of wild animals and thousand kind of trees. For ages the rain forest in Papua are free and fresh.

But now this area is known as a Fragile Environtment, a natural evironment where live many flora and fauna that can be easily destructed because of human activities causing the environtment endangered.
Since more than 40 years ago a Copper and Gold and mine was opened in Kabupaten Mimika, near the Timika City. This big mine is called Freeport, a company from USA. Freeport Mine located side by side with Lorentz National Park. And their mining area was get bigger and bigger, and started to disturb the National Park.


Since long time there were a lot of proofs and evidences that the mining operation made danger to the fragile environtment. Freeport company cut the trees in the rain forest, blew the hills and dig the ground to take the copper and gold from the land. Then they threw the pollutant dirt, also called Tailing, into the Ajkwa River. The tailing killed fishes and pollute the water.

After seeing the above photos now we know that the Lorentz National Park is a Fragile Environtment, why ?? Because of the Copper and Gold mining causing :

1. Some hills and small mountains were not there anymore
2. Millions of Trees were cut down
3. Thousand of animals from insects to big wild animals died
4. River got polluted
5. Fresh water fishes died
6. People can use water for drink and cooking
7. Sea also got polluted as the river brought the tailing into the sea
8. Sea fishes and other sea fauna died
9. The air nearby the mining is not fresh anymore
10. Causing global warming
TAILING DUMP EVERYDAY
THROWN TO AJKWA RIVER

Looking at the above graphics we know how much destruction caused by the mining activities to the environtment. If we don't start doing something to stop the destruction, I think our country, maybe, will look like the Sahara Dessert someday.

The Waterfall Field Trip Reflection

At Thursday, 16 May 2008, I went to the waterfall at Gunung Pancar because we had a new UOI topic about" Fragile Environments". Fragile environments meaning is an environment that is easy to be destroyed. Examples of the fragile environments are plants, trees, insects, little animals and animals.

The way I went to the waterfall was not as easy as I thought it would be. The way that I went to the waterfall is very steep, adventurous, and dangerous. On the way to the waterfall was very hot. So, I took some rest beside the pathway. I sat on the rock and took a break there. Then I continued my walk.

When I walk, I saw an eagle flying very high on the sky. How happy I am to see that.

When I saw that the waterfall was already near, I pushed myself to walk more faster. By the way, has I mention something about a caterpillar? No? Ok, here it is. So, I walked passed a bush and on one of its leaf, there was a red caterpillar!

So, that was one example again about fragile environment. At last, I reached the waterfall. I put off my shoes and socks and walk to the water. My feet hurt because the pebbles but I couldn't stay any longer because I have to go home. I have to change my wet clothes to my dry-change clothes.


Then, we took lunch still near the waterfall. After that I asked the guide why are the trees being cut, and he said that it was the illegal loggers who cut the trees. " Why are here there was just one eagle flying?" I asked again. " it's because they are being hunted and their home( trees) already being cutted down. There used to be a forest here and it had many eagles, monkeys, wild boars and many animals." He answered.

He pointed to a place not to far from the waterfall, a row of big rocks, and he said that it used to be a river there. But it already be a dry place now. I was curios if there was a landslide ever and he said that there was never a landslide happened here. The government will make this place to be a parking lot.

Then we get ready to went home. The pathway was not to steep but it was more longer.

This is my reflection. What do you think?

My Holiday story

What did you do last week? Is it fun? In this story I will tell you about my holiday story last week.

In my holiday last week, I stayed at home because I was sick. When I went to the doctor he said" You're alright, Desiree. I just give you some medicine in case you're sick". Several days later I felt not good. So, I went to the doctor again and the doctor said" Now you're sick Desiree. You got a fever". After I drank the medicine from couple of times, I felt that I'm better.

Maybe I was sick because I went to Singapore a few days earlier. At that time in Singapore I went to Singapore Flyer and Science Center. When I went to Singapore Flyer I was a little bit scared because I went up and up and then went down and down. Actually it goes very slow. But it was a very beautiful view at the top of this Singapore Flyer. After that I went to Science Center. In science Centre I played many science activities. And it was fun and good.
After I went back to Jakarta, my friends from my old school visited me. We walked around my house and climbed a tree house. When we went up to the tree house, the tree house was very dirty and I said" Guys, I think that we have to go down because this tree house is very dirty and a little bit smelly". So we went down and went back to my house. We also went to a lake to had a picnic with them. We played a remote controlled boat and ate some fruits that I brought from my house. My friends said" Desiree, I like this place because of the view and the lake is beautiful".

When I was sick I still went to the church. That time it was my turn to help the priest. But I couldn't do it perfectly because I'm sick. I was very sad with that.

I hate it when I was sick because I couldn't go to the cinema to watch the newest children's movie" Spiderwick" and " Horton hears a Who". I was bored at home. So when my mother went to my dad's office, I joined her. Then my mom bought some clothes for herself. It was very long. I was so tired.

REFLECTION ABOUT BILLY-CART RACING DAY

In the Billy cart racing day, we had some race. Example: The most beautiful cart, the great Billy-cart competition for student and the great Billy cart race for parents. I joined the most beautiful cart competition. There were many judges in this activity and some preschoolers voting we can’t read it so we can’t count it.

Then we went to Hansen’s house to have the great races. That day was a hot day. But it was good because if it was raining it was worse than hot. We also had our lunch there.
After that we went back to school and continue our activity.

Reflection about Digital Portfolio

1. Blog
My first digital portfolio was a blog. A blog is where we can write about ourselves, about our lesson and experiences. We also could put some pictures and links to our Google pages and e-mails. First time I made my blog my dad helped me and he was very good at this thing. But I like this because people can write comments to me so I could make my blog better.

2. Google Pages Maker
In Google pages, we could put some information, pictures, links, title and we can make some pages in one site. If you forgot which one is the home page you could see a picture of a house on one page. To make this, this is easier than to make a blog

3. i-Web
My third digital portfolio is an i-Web. This i-Web is a lot easier than Google pages. We can put our photos, music and sound of ourselves. We can choose our background, too. It was almost the same like google pages.

So, that was my reflection. If you want to make some of them, you can have fun.
