reflection



Khalid was talking about the drinking water; he started with a good introduction about the percentage water which covers the earth; and how water plays an important part in our human body by making up about 70% of our body; on the other hand there are many people who don’t have clean water to drink. Also he spoke about  water problems in the UAE  and where the UAE gets the drinking water by desalination of sea water; also he talked about the solution of the water in the UAE like recycling wastewater or by campaigns targeting consumption of water and he ended with a good conclusion .
Khalid’s body language was very good and his eyes were looking at all students; he answered their questions like when Mr. Hedley asked him about what do you mean by desalination of sea water; he said this operation was making sea water into drinking water.

Venue: T001
Time: 1015
Subject: History of fireworks
Presenters:
·        Mr.Ghaith
·        Mr.Nasser
·        Mr.Abdulaziz

In the beginning, Ghaith started the presentation by giving the introduction; then, he talked about the discovery of fireworks. His presentation was great but he was so fast and his slides were pretty good; he showed us many interesting pictures. After that Nasser took his turn and talked about some ideas about the gunpowder e.g.  warfare and firearms; Nasser's presentation was good but he needs to improve his skills in presenting. Lastly, Abdulaziz talked about the uses of gunpowder in warfare and he explained how the fireworks are made and used in the modern era. He was good in presenting but at the same time he was fast; his slides were good and the pictures he chose were exciting. In my opinion, the subject was very interesting and exciting; they chose interesting picture and organized them pretty well.
