Taiwan's Top-Model-to-be!

Over two weeks have passed since Zosia won the first place in the modeling competition. (You can read about the 1st eliminations here.) I still can not believe that she has been chosen from among all those talented young people.
The competition was really tough. After the first round of eliminations only 60 young girls and 30 guys were chosen. Later, after some training, photoshoots and cat walks, that number has gone down to 30 girls and 15 guys. These 45 young people received more chances to show their ability to work as models, dancers, presenters... They all worked hard, some days for very long hours - starting before 7am!

And finally the finals arrived - on the evening of Aug.29th 45 competitors have shown what they have learned throughout the one month of training.

After the first announcement of Zosia receiving the Kiss Me cosmetics company prize, we all thought - Wow! That's wonderful! Neither Zosia nor I have ever thought that she would receive the first place and win the top prize, Subaru XL! This was just something we have never ever expected.
Zosia signed up for the competition mainly to learn more about modeling, to meet new people and to have fun, winning was never in our plans ...
Now, after she became the Star :-) her life has changed drastically - her photos and news about her has been all over the TV, Internet, newspapers and magazines. She has given many interviews and received many modeling jobs. Almost every day something is happening - an audition, fitting, photoshoot, filming, press conference or training. She is still enjoying all this attention and work. And on top of that, whenever she is home, I 'make her' study ;-)

      Przed Zosią jeszcze mnóstwo nauki i pracy, ale na pewno nie damy się zwariować.

Animals Classification Lapbook

Last week Jaś has been very busy working on the animal classification lapbook. Lately it's been very difficult to get him interested in doing any kind of project, but to my surprise he has finished this lapbook in just a few days! I am really proud of him. I used a ready lapbook template from the wonderful Homeschool Share website, but I asked Jaś to writ all the information in his own handwriting instead of just printing the prepared text. Here are the photos of his lapbook: Jaś adding the finishing touches to the lapbook cover: Lapbook cover: The inside of the lapbook: Inside 'Classifying Living Things ': Animals with and without backbones are called:  Inside 'What are the four main Invertebrate Classes?': Inside 'What are the five Vertebrate Classes?': Mollusk characteristics Annelid characteristics: Arthropod characteristics: Echinoderm characteristics: Fish characteristics: Reptile char

Czworokąty - lapbook

Niedawno pisałam o Jasia lapbooku o TRÓJKĄTACH . Teraz czas na pokazanie naszego lapbooka o CZWOROKĄTACH.  Praca w toku Już prawie gotowy Strona tytułowa Kilka słów o trapezach Równoległoboki I na koniec - prostokąty i kwadraty Taka forma uporządkowania wiadomości geometrycznych bardzo Jaśkowi odpowiada. Wszystko jest przedstawione jasno i przejrzyście. No i zawsze można wrócić do takiego lapbooka, otworzyć go i przypomnieć sobie co nie co.

Skąd się bierze 13-ty miesiąc w roku?

Tak zwany kalendarz chiński jest kalendarzem księżycowo-słonecznym, gdyż jest oparty na ruchu księżyca i słońca. Często jest też nazywany kalendarzem księżycowym, kalendarzem rolniczym 農曆 [nónglì] , kalendarzem Yin 陰曆 [yīnlì] lub też starym kalendarzem 舊曆 [jiùlì]. Czy wiecie, że czasami w kalendarzu księżycowym jest 13 miesięcy? I właśnie w tym roku będziemy mieć taką sytuację. Miesiąc to czas pełnego obrotu Księżyca wokół Ziemi. Księżyc okrąża Ziemię w ciągu 27,3 dnia. Z kolei Ziemia okrąża Słońce w 365 dób, 5 godzin, 48 minut i 46 sekund. Po obliczeniach okazuje się, że jeden rok słoneczny równa się 12 7/19 miesiąca księżycowego lub też 19 lat słonecznych równa się 235 miesiącom księżycowym. Jest to podstawa kalendarza księżycowo-słonecznego, a więc również kalendarza chińskiego. Innymi słowy: Chiński kalendarz opiera się na fazach księżyca. Miesiące chińskie zaczynają się od nowiu i pełnia księżyca wypada 15 dnia miesiąca. Ponieważ nów jest co 29½ dnia, chińskie miesiące kale
