In CMM we are learning about what are hazards and what some of the signs you may see in a workplace or workshop.
A hazard is something that can cause serious harm or death.
The three main types of signs are the yellow triangle with is a hazard sign, blue circle with a white background which is a mandatory sign and the red circle with a white background and a line through it, showing use that it is a prohibition sign.
The hazard sign tells us that there is a hazard that can't be eliminated and to watch out for it.
The mandatory sign tells us that we have to do something or what we have to do to help minimise or isolate a hazard.
The prohibition tells us that we aren't aloud to do something because it is or may become a hazard.
My Safety Sign
Next we had to design our own sign to put around the workshop. For this activity I choose to do a sign about not going into the workshop without a teacher present. Here was the first sign I did.
This is my second go at making the sign.
PPE
Personal Protective Equipment
Ear Protection
Ear protection is used to look after your hearing.
Eye Protection
Safety glasses are used to protect your eyes. While you are drilling there is a hazard of depbreeze flying from the drill and can fling itself into your eye. There are also small particles flying around in the air.
Overalls
Overalls are used to protect your clothing from oil, chemicals and heat.
The difference between an acoustic guitar and a electric guitar is that the electric guitar needs power to work but the acoustic does not.
Charlie Christian, B.B. King, Jimi Hendrix.
A guitars can be used in a band or cultural group, sometimes orchestra.
The difference between a keyboard and the piano is that a piano is a acoustic instrument and the keyboard is electric and the piano's keys are heaver than the keyboard. The black keys play the flats and the sharps. On the keyboard your left hand plays the cords and your right plays the melody.
I really enjoyed learning the keyboard skills because I feel like I got much better at moving my fingers form key to key.
I found it hard to move my fingers to the right keys and remembering which key I had my fingers on.
Who is Stevie Wonder
Stevie Wonder was born in 1950.
He was born six weeks early, with other complications causing him to become blind.
His full name is Stevland Hardaway Morris.
He is one of the most successful musicians of the 20th century.
He is a well known singer, song writer, pianist and record producer.
For this activity we had to pick an emotion and write about it, I chose to do betrayal. After writing down things that we thought of to do with that emotion, we used what we learnt with figurative language to write a few sentences. Here is mine.
