Today, the teacher gave us a task to make a major seventh chord for every major scales. After we done, there are several students which re-do the singing assessment. I'm not re-do because I got 8 and its actually enough. Then the teacher told us about the last assessment before the idul fitri break. I need to make a booklet and research about the composers that we've chosen.

At this time, the teacher were checking our blog spot address. My blog is the most empty because it was actually grade 7 blog. So I'm making a new one and began to update my reflection starting that day. Most of my friends has already update their reflection on to the blog spot. Besides that, we should update several videos and pictures while we practice at home.

Today I did the presentation together with my group. I explain the baroque music and composers. There are several problem on the presentation. its because our group only have 1 laptop, so we have to make the slide on the day of the presentation. But the presentation going well though. Its too fast because our slide is too little compare to other group. For the next presentation, I need to make my voice loud and clear so everyone can gets what I'm saying

For the preparation of the group presentation, I prepare a biography of John Pachelbel. There are 4 types that should be perform: Baroque era, Classical era, Romantic era and Modern Classical era. I choose Baroque music. I got the info from the internet and the handout, which the teacher gave us. Today I explain about John Pachelbel and Baroque music. And for the next meeting, the teacher told us to make a group slide presentation about the music era and the greatest composers that ever lived.

Today is the time for the singing assessment... I feel really really nervous and a bit afraid if suddenly I forgot the lyrics. I use the karaoke version of the song so its only the music which is played. I feel really afraid because I know that my voice isn't so good and that's what makes me feels really shy. Anyway, when my turns come, I could sing very well... Like I never imagined before. After the singing assessment over, we're asked to prepare for the group slide presentation

Today we only asked to find a pop song for the singing assessment. My song is "Fireflies" sang by Owl City. I choose this song because the lyrics is not hard and my voice were nearly similar to the vocal. Besides that, I often heard the song and sang it whenever I listen to it. At this day, we practice on bowing, greeting and adjust the microphone so it will be easier when the performance come.

I learn a music theory in this day. The teacher taught us the major key from c until c# then g to g#. So this day I learned the formula for the major scale. First we learn from the c major scales which are all natural. Then we move on to g and e which consist of several sharp. While making a scale, I found that there's a flat symbol in some scale. I learn the flat symbol and the teacher explain to me. At last I can understand
