2nd GRACE REFLECTION

This is the 2nd week of GRACE and we have done a bit of research on the various ways AVA contains the dengue threat. Still we are continuing to find our own ways of containing the dengue fever. We hope to come up with it soon.

ding ren Reflection

My Reflection on the first two lessons of the GRACE project.
On the First Lesson, Our Teacher-In-Charge did not come because of the sec1 orientation but the relief teacher did teach us some things about the project. On the Second Lesson, Our Teacher finally came and go through everything that should have been taught in both lessons. She went through the power point slides which tells us what will us be doing in the future. At the end of the lesson, my classmates suggested to stay back after school to make up for the first lesson.
During the first week of the grace lesson, our teacher, Mrs Goh didn't come to school as she was in the orientation camp. During the second lesson, we chose our topic,which is the dengue outbreak. We all know that dengue fever is a very serious illness which can also kill a person with just fever. This diseases is spread by a very fatal mosquito,which is the Aedes mosquito. Although there is no effective way to clear out all of these deadly insects currently with  the advanced technology , but I hope that during this project work our group can come out with some brilliant ideas which may be very effective in clearing all these insects. These mosquito normally breed in waters so everybody can take a part to reduce the number of Aedes mosquito with just some simple action like clearing the waters in our vases. We hope that during this project work, we can spread to everybody about the seriousness of this disease and hope that lesser people will get this dangerous disease and die from it.

For the first GRACE lesson our group had chosen the title for the project. And it is about dengue fever. We have learnt that the fever is very dangerous it can kill people with just getting the fever. It is cause by some kind of insects call the dengue mosquitoes During the first period when people got the fever people were panic, as they did not know how to cure the fever. Now we can prevent the fever from stop the breeding process of the dengue mosquitoes. I think if we all corporate and we can stop the mosquitoes from breeding. But first we have to find out how the mosquitoes breeds and where it is breed, after searching through the Internets I had found out all the answer to these questions. Normally they are breed in the water. So we have to clean the water in our vases everyday and we have the pill in our upside down and we have to cover all the holes in our house as this places are the easiest places to led the mosquitoes to breed. Then we have to tell our family members to do this too as this can prevent the mosquitoes from breeding too. With all this helps I think we are able to prevent the mosquitoes from breeding so that lesser people will get the disease and die.

Grace Reflections

As this is my first time doing a project that requires 10 weeks, I'm very excited about it. Our group has chosen the topic(Weather effects on breeding mosquitoes and dengue outbreak). We chosen this topic as recent cases of increasing dengue patients has caught our group's interest. I know that dengue is a dangerous even fatal disease spread by the Aedes Mosquitoe but I don't know how to create an effective plan to totally wipe out the threat of dengue fever. Therefore i hope to be able to come up with a solution on how to tackle the problem of dengue outbreak through this project. To start the project, my team and i will first research on the various ways of how to tackle dengue fever.
