Piano Performance: Blues in the Attic

Today, I have an online piano lesson with my piano teacher - who normally does lessons with us every Wednesday so I decided to practise today. I am hopefully going to have an exam in July (grade 3 piano ABRSM). One of my pieces/songs I have to play in the exam it is called Blues in the Attic and it is a very jazzy.


 How the exam works.

There are three lists of pieces you have to pick one from each one: List A, List B and List C.
List A: I chose Bransle De La Torche (It is in a different language so you may need to search that one up)
List B: I chose Allegretto Grazioso (again it is in a different language).
List C: Blues in the Attic (the piece I am going to play for you today).
Then, you need to play the scales (not on the fish) of the piano. If you are confused about this, scales mean playing the piano from white key to black key or white key to black key depending what note you start on. After that, you need to play a sight reading piece, which is a short song you have not played before.

My book review

Image
A few weeks ago, I created a book review on request for it to be posted on a magazine . I chose to do it on the Boy of the Back of the Class. Here is my review.↓ Introduction The Boy At the Back Of the Class is a great book by Onjali Q. Rauf because it reveals the hardship of people escaping the war in Syria and a strong connection between two people. Summary A refugee boy came to a school where the narrator and her best friends go to. The narrator became friends with Ahmet (the refugee boy) and Brendan-the-bully was being mean to him so they had a fight. Ahmet won and so Brendan got revenge by putting a can of baked beans into Ahmet’s red bag. He tries to wash it off but the smells and stains stayed. The narrator learned more about Ahmet’s background story and how he got into the school and country. Ahmet and his family were running from a war in Syria and they all got separated. Unfortunately, Ahmet’s cat died whilst going on a boat to Greece. They had to move to many differe

Making Harry Potter Monopoly

Image
Me with the game Two days ago, my mum had a fantastic idea to create our own Harry Potter Monopoly to play as a family. 😀We printed the paper for the board that I cut it out extra carefully. The next day, we got some unused cardboard and turned it into the gameboard. We printed the money and the title deed cards and cut them using the slicer. We used a recycled box to make the place to put the game and figures inside. Then, we printed the bottom for the box and stuck it on. After that, we wanted to print the top of the box but we unfortunately had no ink left!😞 At night, after we had iftar and salah, we played the Monopoly and it was AMAZING!!! We all were so into the game that we played until midnight!😅A few days later, the ink finally arrived and we printed the top of the box to complete everything. The game turned out to be spectacular. Instead of regular chance cards and chest community, there were potions and spell cards. E.g. One of the potions cards said to go directly

Pizza Pizza

Today, my mum suggested my sister and I make 3 mini pizzas for lunch. She also asked my brother to make brownies with her. We all woke up and opened our home school (I knew that I would have a lot of fun today because we had so much fun yesterday).  I decided to draw a greyscale (black and white), shaded picture of my blue, metallic hydroflask. I think it looks very realistic. Share what you think of my drawing in the comments. After that, my sister and I made the pizzas. Me with my drawing. I had to be very careful with the shading and I really did not want a single line out of place because I want it to look neat. I also put the shadow of my bottle to make it look even more realistic. Instructions to make a mini pizza Serves one person. 1.First, preheat the oven to gas mark 5. 2.Second, mix in a cup of flour with a half-cup of water (ratio from flour to water is 2:1). 3.Flour your surface and knead the dough on that surface.
