The people that join my group were Mr Victor, Ibu Maytha, Pak Andre, Tiffany and my group. We did this successfully. my group and I were happy that we could help people at Mount Pancar by planting trees.

My conclution

Over all, this is a fun thing to do. When I'm working on this blog, I'm enjoying. by having this, i could learn many things. One thing that i found out was a tree could help in preventing landslide. I could help the environment that got this disaster such as people at Mount Pancar.
The action that my group going to make was to go to gunung pancar again and plant some trees there. My group were asking the class members to help us to! Jasper, thanks a lot for giving us the compos that you've made.
For the first inquiry, is could learn that we could focus on our environment other that focusing on the "global" area. For the second inquiry, over all i learn that there are many ways to prevent landslide. Such as planting trees and putting rocks to hold the land from sliding down.

Gathering

My group was gathering at my house on Friday and Saturday. We finished our performance, multimedia and the posters. The things that my group almost finished at were the display board, experiment and 3D display on an aquarium. In my house, we make a data of what do we need to finished at. We have made this for guiding and telling us what are the things that we need to do and remind us to be focusing on the exhibition more.

My group needs to keep up on our work. The exhibition was about one more weeks to go. My group have to gather again next week to be more ready on the day of when the exhibition is. The possible way to be able to accomplish this exhibition was to sacrifice our play time to do this.

More Detail

My group and I had made and started to finished most of the things.
My group and I made 2 landslide so one is the one which have trees which is trying to hold the land from falling down. So we pure some water on to each of this landslide and see which one will be stronger. This is the thing that we’re going to do on the experiment.
My group made a pantomime which we’ll show it later on the day. This is the thing that we’re going to do for the performance. Inside the pantomime, we also put some things that will show how does the people in Gunung Pancar feel right now. We also show what are the things that people in Gunung Pancar did to prevent landslide.
For the model, my group were making and finishing different types of landslide. On the model we put only 2 main things which is the one that look like at Gunung Pancar and what do they do to prevent it and the other 2 was the rock slide and also the landslide under water.

This are the things that my group do now.

My second article "Jalur Subang-Bandung Sempat Tertutup"

On Friday, April 27th, 2007 There was a landslide that happened in the main road from Subang to Bandung. The landslide happened at 5 P.M. This landslide closed all of the road for about 10 meter. This landslide were caused by the heavy rain that had come few days ago. This rain had made river 'Citarum' increasing the water level.

My First Article ' Longsor Dari Bukit itu Terus Menghantui'

This is my first article that i found. This article is about a landslide that had happened under Bukit Batu Putih because of the earthquake that had happened few days ago. It is happening at Central Java at Tegal. People there says that the landslide that had happened there were cause by a heavy rain that happened there a few days ago.

My Second Inquiry

My second inquiry is “The possible solution to prevent landslides.” There are many ways to do this. This inquiry means that there are lots of ways to prevent landslide. One of the examples was to make a stairs like on the rice field so the soil will not keep falling down, people do the same thing to what is happening at Gunung Pancar. There are other ways to prevent this not only making the stairs like the people did at Gunung Pancar. We could prevent the happening of landslide by not doing illegal logging. This is a way to stop the happening of landslide. We also could stop burning the trees at the forest. Landslide could happen if there’s a really big rain, the rain will push the soil down and if the soil can’t hold it, landslide will happen. We also could plant trees and in a few week, month or year the trees will grow and it will change the trees that people have cut. People could do small things that will be useful for us. If people have done small things, now we could start in making the small things. So, start to do this to have a better future later on.

The performance homework

It helps the audience to understand about the inquiry by making a story board that how landslide broke the houses and by looking at what happened on the things that we’re doing. We will show also how to prevent it.

We could show our talents by making the background of the storyboard play to be more interesting.

The purpose is to make this storyboard play is to show what really causes landslide and if it happen again, how could we handle or prevent it.

The performance itself will took around 5 minutes so first we’re going to show the first and the last scene and ask the audience what is happening than, we will repeat it one more time, but the second time we do it, we show it from the first scene to the last scene.

The special needs to make this performance is
We will need
–The background for the storyboard ‘we could ask the maintenance to help us with this.

The Key Concept

The Key Concept

The key concept that my group choose is the causation and perspective. We choose this because we think that landslide could happened with different types of ways such as rain, illegal logging and other stuff like that. We also choose perspective because we think that we could asked people of what they think about what causes landslide that happened in Gunung Pancar. We will go to Gunung Pancar again to find about what they think. We could search what causes landslide by knowing different perspective from people.

My homework


Title: It's Our World and We're Responsible for it.Theam: Sharing the PlanetCentral Idea: We are responsible for determining causes of changes in our natural enviroment.Inquiry Into: 1 The cause and effect of landslides in communities2. The possible solutions to preent Landslides We are responsible for determining causes of changes in our natural enviroment.


There are some special types of landslide here are the list:

1. Debris flow
A debris flow is a slope material that become wet if we mix them with water that will become a debris flow or mud flow. It will cause flood along the path that were get block by the trees, and houses.
2. Earth flow
An earth flow is a kind of landslide but it happens only in some particular parts.
3. Shallow landslides
A Shallow landslide is a landslide which the sliding part is located between the soil or the bedrock.
4. Deep-seated landslide
A Deep-seated landslide is a landslide which the sliding surface is most locates deeply below the maximum of the trees root.
5. Related phenomena
A Related phenomena is similar to a landslide but this type of landslide includes lots of ice, snow and many rock fell so fast from the side of the mountain.

Landslide is a thing that includes a bid range of the land movement. One of the examples was rock falls. There are also many ways to make landslide to happen such as erosion, rock and soil, earthquake, volcano eruptions, vibrations, also ground water pressure. The meaning of landslide was representing one category of ‘phenomena’ which includes under general heading of mass movement. The earthwuake and putting water to a filter was also a force of gravity.

Topic:Landslide
Group Name: The Mud-rines
Group Slogan: Make Friends With Nature

2. The possible solutions to prevent Landslides
Central Idea: We are responsible for determining causes of changes in our natural environment.
Group Members: Melvin, Ivanna, Angga
