Emotions

Hi everyone! Welcome to another post, today in drama we learned about emotions, what it is and describe how we feel. Like for example right now I feel calm and happy.

What are emotions?
Emotions are feelings that impact on your thoughts and behaviour. It also is associated with your personality, mood and motivation. Like when you feel sad you have no motivation to move or do anything.

We also show emotion with our bodies. For example, when you're watching a horror movie and a scary person suddenly popped up, some people may flinch, and some people may not.

In that drama lesson, we also did an animation or a performance on our bio poems which you will know about in this video.

What is inferring?

Hi everyone! Welcome to another post, today I will be doing a post about inferring, what it is and what it is used for. Inferring means reading between the lines, some of you probably have heard this while in primary but didn't know what it is.

Reading between lines is when the author intends to give out some kind of information but that information so you have to look for information in that text along with you're own knowledge. I think that in fictional stories it is easier to infer information rather than non-fictional stories because in non-fictional stories it is stating real information.

A way to infer information is by writing down some literal information, meaning information that is 'right there'. Then you can infer something from that information.

Ex.

From the inferred part it says she was nervous this is because her mouth was dry and she had a big knot in her stomach. In my opinion, I would class that as being nervous, because sometimes when I get nervous my mouth goes dry.
