The Flute





Hi guys,





                                                     ☺ ☺☺☺☺☺☺




Today I'm going to blog about my Flute. [SORRY BUT THESE PHOTOS ARE FROM GOOGLE, ALL OF THEM! SORRY I CAN'T TAKE PHOTOS OF MY OWN :( ] I actually have been taking lessons at my school since (I think) March.  Strangely enough, the Flute uses up the equivalent amount of air used to make a sound on the Baritone. The flute is a very interesting instrumental music instrument. In order to make a noise on the flute, you have to blow across a mouthpiece attached to the rest of the flute. The flute consists of three different parts:

1-The mouthpiece

2-The Flute body

3-The end part of the flute body (A place to put your small finger to play different notes. e.g: E flat, B flat, C sharp etc....)
Here are some photos:
This is a piccolo. A piccolo is basically a super high-pitched version of the original Flute

This is what a flute that has been kept looks like.

The complete Flute when assembled.

The flute body joint (The place where you play most of the notes)


This is the foot joints that students get when learning the Flute.

This is the flute foot joint for people who have mastered the Flute and can play it well.

Airplanes

The A380 on the ground


Hi guys,

Im going to post some photos of  planes. My favorite of them all is the Boeing 777. I also like the Boeing 747 and the Airbus A380 not forgetting to mention that I like the Boeing 787 and the Airbus A340, too!

 {I have never flown on an A380 before :)}

I love planes!



A380 Turning. My question: How the heck did they take this photo? o_O?

Field day

Hello everyone!




I am going to tell you about a certain day that we have during the school year in America called Field day. Field day is basically having a whole day dedicated to outdoor activities such as: Soccer, Baseball, T-Ball, Relay races, Speed contests, and much, much more! To Americans, Field day is a day for exercise. It helps all of the kids in the school be motivated to exercise.






 I really like field day myself, But Unfortunately, IT RAINED THE WHOLE DAY TODAY!!! ARGHHHH!! And you know what my teachers who were organizing field day did? They postponed the whole field day to Friday, Which is going to be another rainy day. They said: "If it is going to rain on Friday, we will have to forget about field day." I was angry when I heard these words. So much for having a fun field day!




Anyway, Thanks for reading, and know you know all about field day!
