my pharaoh project

In humanities we had to do a project about a Egyptian Pharaoh. I had to do Khufu a Pharaoh. I did this with ted. This project is about Khufu. People nickname him as the "Great pyramid builder".

Kuala Lumpur Reflection

This is the flag of Kuala Lumpur. It is slightly different than the Malaysian flag. I did a presentation on Kuala Lumpur since that is my birth place and the only place I know much about.

My believes about the presentation are that I did well in finding the images and sorting them out as well as writing the text using interesting vocabulary. I think I performed well since I spoke loudly, had some eye contact and my pronunciation was quite clear. When I showed the location map, I think it was creative to first show a map of Kuala Lumpur, then a map of where Kuala Lumpur was located in Malaysia. As for the other graphics, I carefully chose pictures including the different races in Malaysia and the Gombak and Klang rivers to highlight my points. In the very first slide, I showed the flag of Kuala Lumpur flag to capture audience interest.

In the future, I would not like to be absent because then I would have limited time to complete my school work. In looking back at my project, I think I could have put in more images. I was unsuccessful in including music and need to learn how to do this. Although I can vividly recall being pretty organized for the oral presentation, it could have been better if I added my own words instead of reading off the screen most of the time. In future presentations, I need to remind myself about all these importants factors.

I learned a lot about my country. For example, I never knew Kuala Lumpur was famous for processing tin-ore and that that the city grew around the Klang and Gombak rivers which were sources of water and transport. I think that YOU should visit Kuala Lumpur which is now a popular business center. Now I understand why there are so many races living in Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia. I like my classmates' presentations too especially Alex' presentation because he used his voice well and the slides were neat. From all the presentations, I learned about the history of cities, population and locations that we learned in class.

I personally think that my presentation was awesome! However, my performance could have been better. Although I put in a lot of effort in doing the slides, I was quite nervous when I presented. I should be more confident and less nervous. Secondly, I need to show my excitement with some slides by changing my voice and including some actions so that the audience is always entertained.
