Price of rice: 2011- 20,000 VND/kg
2010- 18,000 VND/kg
2009- 15,500 VND/kg
2008- 13,000 VND/kg
Reasons: The price of rice increased all the time, always increase, never decrease. The reason is because the price of all kind of materials like fertilizer, taxs, transportation, and all things that used for help crops grow were increase a lot, so the farmers and business people have to increase the price of rice, for making profits.

Migration and Immigration

Migration- are people from one country move to other country.
Example: A lot of Vietnamese moved to America for better education. Vietnamese are migration from Vietnam to America.

Immigration- are people that from other countries move into a country.
Example: A lot of Vietnamese moved to America for a better environment to live. Vietnamese are immigration to America.

Because of the migration and immigration, cultures of all different countries started to mix.
During the mixing, people get to understand more about other cultures, so they decided to move anywhere they want.
That’s why in Vietnam, especially in HCMC, there’re so many Chinese lived for a long time, and they also formed their own careers, which created the growth of economy by trading, producing goods.

Water Cycle based on "I'm yours" =)) ((=

Well what do you know about the water cycle?
It's basically just have for about 6 steps
The first one is evaporate
From rivers and oceans
When the water is going up to the sky
It formed big clouds just hanging on the sky
And it call condensation
Then it will be drop down
And it, just forms the rain
Precipitation, is what we call.
So cool, oh oh oh

And now it’s time for the surface run off
Water just drop down to the surface
Then it goes to the ground we call it infiltration
And now the last step of water cycle
We just call it is the discharge yeah,
It brings the water backs to rivers and oceans
And I, have learn something
Water cycle
Is so easy
To remember

About myself...

Hello everybody, my name is Khoi. I have had a really excited summer in Nha Trang with my parents, sister, and my brother (just for people who do not know that i lived in Nha Trang). Enjoy all the fresh air, cool beaches, yummy seafoods, and especially enjoys all good time with my family just giving Me so much energy for Me to start a new school-year at AIS. In summer, i also went to Cambodia with my uncle's family, and it was really fun. All the good foods, friendly people, nice temples, just made me fall in love with it.
More about S.S with Mr.Blake in this school-year, i really hope that we can learn diffrently from 6th and 7th grade. I wanted to learn more about our real world, real problems, new conflict. I also wanted to understand more about the world around me, like important news or something like that. What i wasn't expect to learn is all of the historical of ancient dynasty or ancient empire. The reason is not because i don't lile it, it's because we have been study with those topic for 6th and 7th grade, so in 8th grade, i want to learn something new.....
