Our Experience in Community-Based Research

Difficulty and Confusion in Coding, In the first picture, we can see us struggling to build our webpage. Because our coding knowledge is limited, we often get confused and face various errors. Despite the challenges, we continued to find ways to improve our project. Interview with a Burnay Worker, In the second picture, Jillian and Angelica interview a burnay worker. In this interview, we learned about the process of making burnay, as well as the challenges and opportunities in this type of industry. Their answers contributed greatly to our research.

Reflection for the Third Quarter

  As part of our community-based research project during third grade, we learned many groups and categories. We also published our results at the same time by building a webpage. During this, I learned how essential teamwork was in getting a lot done. And if it failed, you need to adjust on the challenges with it. You also learn that winning a project, as well as the result of a goal in a particular pursuit, means being receptive to information. It wasn't all smooth sailing, though. Our poor understanding of CSS made it very tough to lay out the design. It was also very hard to balance working on the project with schoolwork, so I sat up many nights finishing the assignments. Maybe the most challenging thing was building the webpage using only Notepad and Microsoft Edge as the browser. We had to reload our work constantly to see the changes. With these, I tried experimenting through some YouTube tutorials on how to write code to know how to pass through all these. Also, I got assist...

Chinese New Year 2025: Why Do Filipinos Celebrate?

  Chinese New Year, which is the most vibrant and merriest celebration, is not only meaningful in China but here in our country, Philippines. It falls under the Chinese Lunar Calendar on February 29 for the year 2025. Many citizens here join in since Chinese and Filipino have had such historical relations, which stretch back to their pre-Spanish periods of trade. Many Filipino families respect the Chinese New Year, especially to those who have their residents in places like Binondo, manifesting that they have some form of culture solidarity. The Chinese New Year is amazingly celebrated among Filipinos because it leads to good fortune and prosperity. Any form of celebration is never complete without great giveaway money-filled boxes, red decorations everywhere visible, no absence of dragon and lion dances, and the malls and businesses are also on board for fun, giving away discounts and promotion for all. Chinese New Year is a celebration for Filipinos to share and celebrate their r...

Vigan Cityhood: Vigan as a Town Then and a City Now

    Vigan was once a small town rich in culture and history, now turned into a city. It was previously a municipality that boasts its small streets, historical houses with Spanish architecture, and lively town residents' way of life. Items such as burnay (pot), abel Iloko (weaved cloth), and longganisa are in high demand by wholesalers and consumers alike in this trading hub in Ilocos. Even if Vigan is just a town, its economic and tourism potential had already shown itself, which manifests its development into a full-fledged city.     Due to Republic Act No. 8988, Vigan was marked as a city on September 22, 2001. The potential of the locality for the economy as well as tourism expanded since that date. In order to fulfill the needs of expanding population, there has been improvement in public service, such as education and infrastructure. Because this city still takes care of rich cultural heritage, Vigan became a UNESCO World Heritage City and, for the reason,...

New Year New ME!!!

    I would like to start improving myself this year to be a better person. One of my goals is to improve my academic performance. To achieve my academic goals, I will try to be more responsible, well-organized, and time-effective. I also like to keep myself fit with a healthy diet, regular exercise, and good sleep. According to my observation, having a balanced life can make a person more lively and productive while executing daily duties.      Besides focusing on myself, I want to fortify my bonds with family and friends. I shall try to be more patient, empathetic, and trustworthy towards them. I know that any change will not come easily, but I am willing to face each obstacle with boldness and self-assurance. For me, the new year is a beginning of a new chapter in life.    These changes, I believe, will greatly benefit my journey this year. I'll do everything in my power to add color and significance to this new chapter. Happy New Year

My Favorite School Vacation

    This Christmas was unmatched in love and excitement. We started preparing ourselves for the holidays, so we decorated the house. Every ornament reminded me of joyous Christmases by how lovingly they were placed. The celebratory attitude was brought about by the decoration's special warmth and enthusiasm, which made our house feel alive.     My favorite aspect of Christmas would be spending it with my family. Talking over ham, spaghetti, and puto bumbong is definitely one of the tastiest things you can do. Simbang Gabi and Noche Buena also make Christmas quite enjoyable. During these unique times spent with the family, the holiday took on a deeper meaning.     Giving and sharing is also an important part of Christmas. The smiling faces of my family on Christmas day warm up my heart. For me, Christmas is not just happiness, but goodness, love, and gratitude that must be given. The holiday season spirit has reminded me to face the coming year...

A Journey With HTML Tags

  During the second quarter, I gained a lot of new knowledge, particularly in the area of coding. Even though this has been difficult at times, I've discovered that perseverance and the correct tools, like internet guides, can make a big difference. Additionally, learned how to structure basic HTML code, using the <html>, <head>, and <body> tags to organize content. The <html> tag is the root element that wraps all the content on a webpage, while the <head> tag contains metadata like the title of the page or links to external stylesheets. The <body> tag holds the visible content such as text, images, and other elements that users can interact with. My understanding of web programming has improved as a result of these experiences, and I was careful to adhere to my teacher's recommendations, which helped me stay on track and avoid mistakes   One of the major challenges This quarter, I struggled with coding, particularly when it came to compreh...
