literacy--make plans
A well developed plan can save time and improve the efficiency. Time is limited for everyone, if a person can do more work in a certain time. Only hard work and fast speed movement is not enough. A better plan includes reasonable time use; break a huge amount work into small part; specific work in each stage, and an enough time for break. If make plans before doing anything, the plan you made is like a map to give you directions and always knowing about what is your goal and purpose, and also made you keep a clear head of wheatear you are in the right track or not. Plans can let you know the things you doing right now and also gives you a brief outline about your future. For example, when I took the trip to Florida, I made plans about where to go, which hotel to stay and how long we should stay in one place before we went there.

literacy--math
Firstly, we learned adding and minus numbers which is important in our daily measurement. We use the measurement skill to calculate the money we make and cost and the schedule we made. Math plays an important part in my life, not only in my study, but also in my daily life. For example, when we have dinner in the restaurant, we are supposed to calculate out the tips, and we buy something, we should figure out how much money we should give and receive. No one can live without math.
Math is not just numbers calculation; the logic in math developed the critic thinking skill. We have been trained to have the math logic in our math class.

literacy--music
When I first get into music is when I was 6 years old. I learned 1 year piano at that time. Since that, I grow up with piano, with the music dole and the melody. When I play piano, I feel the connection between music and me, I feel myself flow with the music. Music can give me different mode; she gives me confidence, feel good and relaxation. I tread music as my literacy because it has its own langrage. Different langrage have exist every region in the world; however, the langrage of music is the same all over the world. It is a depend language; musicians communicate with each other use that certain langrage. It has its own way of talking and writing. For me, piano is the instrument to make the most beautiful music; each bond on the piano is a single word, musicians is like a writer, which compose the different bond into a melody. Different melody is just like a different story. It evolves emotion for their listeners and gives them the feeling of beautiful.
literacy--child education
Child education is very important because it is the first education people have since they born. So it is the first literacy people learned through their entire life. When we were born, we do not know what is right and what is wrong. We just simply copy from our parents’ and older people. We learn a lot more from parents than school about how to behave as a person. That is why most kid act like their parents. Most of our hobbit, personality, and our actions are inherited from the early age. In another word, childhood education can determine how a person would be like in the future. Child education plays an important part in both childhood and later education for individuals. Child education gave us a huge impact to how people think and react.
Child education has a great effect to how a person will behave in his/her future life. Children apes to people around them. Having a good childhood is definitely an important crucial element for children. A good education can help a person achieve his goal, acquire the quality to think thoroughly, and react wisely.

The Guest House
by Rumi
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
