Project 1: Making Observations and Inferences

Observation: Last week, I went to Target Store with my mom. We were getting out of the subway when I saw a big crowd on the street. I saw some police officers putting on barricades and stretching yellow police tape to prevent people and cars from going on that street. Then, I notice some debris including a half part of a bicycle scattered around the street. Walking further toward the store, I saw a black sedan in the middle of the street and a gray van which its front part was on the sidewalk and seemed like it had knocked over a fire hydrant. Both cars were completely wrecked from the accident. I saw both drivers and some passengers were taken away by two ambulances to the hospital. Something

    In the article “How do you learn to walk? Thousands of steps and dozens of falls per day”, experimental research was done to find an answer to how infants learn to walk. Previous research was conducted on this topic, but it did not show anything about how much or how far infants walk, how often they fall, what makes them continue walking after falling, and how these abilities change with development. Researchers have simply focused on the structure of postures from a crawling to an upright walking position and the regular steps of infants on open grounds where they have to use natural locomotion, or the natural ability to move. This process is known as periodic gait.…

Whenever I go with my mother inside the ladies’ room, I would see pretty young professionals putting on some make-up, lipstick and other beauty products.…

    American poet Criss Jami once said, “If you're waiting until you feel talented enough to make it, you'll never make it.” He is saying that success did not come from talent or waiting for talent, but with determination and doing it. Determination means a strong decision about a person’s passion that he or she will never give up no matter what happen. Moreover, determination can lead people to their goals and avoid wavering and getting lost. It also can pull back the peoples that are dazzled by temptation back on track of their purpose of life.…
