Plants are important life forms belonging to the taxonomic kingdom Plantae and are classified further by the hierarchical system to group similar plants together. Taxonomy is described as “the method by which scientists, conservationists, and naturalists classify and organize the vast diversity of living things on this planet in an effort to understand the evolutionary relationships between them” (Fenneman, 2017). How a plant is classified can be a clue to the uses for that plant in regards to

The Social and Cultural Profile of the Family Most of Myanmar/Burma is Buddhist. The Saw family is Christian of the Presbyterian denomination. My church, Paulin Memorial Presbyterian, sponsored much of the Saw family to come over to Canada. Tha Hser said that the country’s persecution of the Christian religion was not the reason he left Myanmar. He said the reason he left was “politics”.

from school was how I was going to stand up in front of the class for five minutes saying my speech. I have what is called glosssophobia or the fear of public speaking, I had developed my fear at a young age. In grade one the class had to recite “In Poppies Field”, half way through my presentation John crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it at me. The whole class started laughing and even the teacher shared a giggle. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life, the worst part was that some people

opportunity to experience the story as a protagonist as well as a spectator. While researching, I took the opportunity to learn more about the personal life of one of my favorite painters. Eventually, I choose the painting named "Les Coquelicots" (The Poppies), where the subject expresses the deep connection of the artist with Mother Nature. I spent a couple of hours in contemplating the work wondering which character would be better suited to that context until I had a stroke of absolute genius

Cai Guo-Qiang compares his works as the poppy flower. He uses gun powder to make the explosion projects. Gun powder can be dangerous. Gun powder is uncontrollable. But he has been working with the materials for a very long time and he knows well how to manage it. The way he makes his arts are reliable, cool and can harmful.

Day 1: I choose to observe a poppy flower, since I’m busy during most of this summer vacation and it’s easier to maintain as well as consistently take notes of. A few minutes ago, at around noon, I had just put the “medium sized pellet” of soil in a small cup of water for it to expand, which isn’t what I would expect to do when growing flowers. It increased about 4x in size and I placed it in the small pot that came with it. Afterwards, I placed three seeds a tiny bit under the soil and left it on

Aunt Joy woke me up by spraying everyone with apple juice. She can be nice when she wants to but she is also really mean. I share a room with 3 girls; Elizabeth, Jane and Poppy. My friend is Poppy but Elizabeth and Jane always bully me. Out of both of them who do I hate? Both of them. They always bully me because my mum had me at a really young age. “Wakey wakey, rise and shine,” sang Aunt Joy throwing pillows everywhere. “Your social workers are coming so wear something smart and clean this room
