Hence, this paper would describe about the learning experience related to different breath area. This paper would also describe that these learning’s would be relevant to my life or not.
Art and Expression Breadth Area
It was the aim of my life to learn about the lesson of music because it gives me a complete rest and also give me happiness. Before, this course, I was feeling bad, when I went with my school students to historical place because all students in my class were multi talented in the area of dancing, singing and music, while I was not be able to perform anything. Due to this, I was always thought that I should learn some lessons of music that would help me to be an attractive person and to attract the people of myself.
The course related to music also gives me a real life experience because it provides me a chance by which I could also learn about the music, related expressions and thoughts that also increased my knowledge about the music. Due to this, I could feel an encouraging property within me and it also forces me to go in front of people and show talent. It is because that before the course, I did not able to face the people because I was not being able to perform any entertaining activity that grows the internal fear inside me and also restricted me by making a part of the student group. The course of music gives me the knowledge about the node of music that help me to sing a song to the rhythm of music instruments. Hence, I could state that this type of knowledge has its own meaning in my life because it improves my inner feelings and also change me from a reserve person into social person.
This course required communication orally by which I could be able to deliver my thoughts to my listeners by playing the musical instrument. This course also helps me to solve my problem because it gives me a chance to write the lyrics in my word and deliver my message to the some people of my class in the form of music and singing. This course also develops my thinking in the context of those singers’ happiness that performing in front of the huge crowd and get an appreciation for his performance. In the reference of my personal growth, this course gives me a right path and it also in my personal goal that provide me the chance to change myself as a multi talent person that could be effectively described me in front of other people that was not possible for me without this course.
Social and Civic Breadth Area
I have learnt several courses in my life, but each course has its limitation in the context of knowledge but, that courses did not help me to develop my understandings about the management of human relationship. But, the courses related to sociology, I get the different thing that also help me to know about that way, which could be effective for managing the social structure of the concerning societies in which I live. This course increased my knowledge about the social issue such as the impacts of environmental changing over the wealth and health of people.
Therefore, it could be stated that this knowledge helps me to know about that factor which make the social structure of the societies and also makes negative impacts on the social relationship in the condition of any issues. The main key piece of this knowledge is the making of a strong social view that increases the collectivism in the place of individualism. On the other hand, this theory also encourages me to be a significant part of my society and deliver the entire knowledge and learnings to related societal people that would help the other people to do the same and improve the strength of societies that would also build the strong country.
This course gave me to know the effectiveness of social structure for the individual people and the wealth of the country and also provide me the information about the individualism and its impacts on the societies and country’s wealth. Hence, this knowledge also improves my skills by which I could be able to make attractive relationship with other related people. Due to this I could also able to resolve the relationship between the people to people by making mutual communication. At the same time this skill also helped me to find out the accurate reasons behind the problem by which I could also improve my image among the societies.
After the study of this course, I could say that the above knowledge and related experiences contributed in my personal growth because this study provide me information that helped me to realize the situation of problems. The outcomes of this course also changed me because initially I strongly believed in individualism and always engaged to improve myself for being a role model for other people. But after this course, now I like to work for my society in the place of myself to improve them.
Science and Description
In daily life, we people make huge pollution in our external environment in the form of garbage. The same situation I also faced in my colony, where I lived. Due to this problem, a lot of people got the serious health disease that also caused the negative impacts over the health of newborn babies also. Then, as a member of social community, I have also learnt to how to reduce the quantity of garbage by which my society could be able to reduce the level of pollution in our living areas.
This learning also increased my knowledge by which I could be able to apply the significant garbage collection process. It also helped the entire community people to dispose the garbage according to their nature with the ecological process such as the recycle process. Hence, this knowledge also gives me a meaning full way to work for communities and protect the life on the earth.
This knowledge also improved my skills related to communication that helped me to make the proper communication with the other community members on the issues of garbage and its negative impacts over the people. The above learning also helped me to encourage other people towards the pollution and its impacts that also assisted me to find out the reason behind the problem. The above knowledge also helped me and gave me a direction that made the growth of my personal life. Due to this, I could be able to find the solution of the garbage problems by their recycle process not only in my related societies but also in those societies, which are not directly related to me.
Value and Meaning
We all people living in societies that includes many cultures and these differences also increases the distance between the people because they could not understand the view of other people that makes a communication gap within the society. Therefore, the knowledge related to the ethnic relations and multiculturalism increased my understandings about the cultural differences that also helped me to know the perceptions and thoughts about the different cultural backgrounds by which I could make a significant relationship with the people. This knowledge includes the concepts of culture on the basis of individual perceptions, ethics, believes, and the environment of their societies that would also give a relevance meaning to my life.
The information about the culture and its impacts over the thinking style and attitudes of people also helped me to make the effective communication with the community members on the matter of the cultural problems. Hence, the knowledge related to multiculturalism and ethnic relations also improved my skills related to the cross-cultural communication that also helped me to make a strong association between the related people. This skill effectively helped me to resolve those conflicts between me and other related people by presenting the spiritual beliefs and values between people that would also reduce the ground of conflicts between the people of two different religions.
Hence, this course and these experiences significantly contributed to my personal growth because the thinking towards the religion, culture, ethics, and the values that would grow up the inner respect in my heart related to the other religion people. It would also help me to give up the negative thoughts from my mind that I have created about the different religion and their people on the basis of cultural differences. Hence, it would also help me to survive among the different cultural people without any problem.
Conclusion

The Salamanca Statement and Framework for Action on Special Needs Education which was adopted by the World Conference on Special Needs Education: Access and Quality in Salamanca, Spain, June 1994, stated:
We believe and proclaim that:
every child has a fundamental right to education, and must be given the opportunity to achieve and maintain an acceptable level of learning,
those with special educational needs must have access to regular schools which should accommodate them within a child centred pedagogy capable of meeting these needs,
regular schools with this inclusive orientation are the most effective means of combating discriminatory attitudes, creating welcoming communities, building an inclusive society and achieving education for all; moreover, they provide an effective education to the majority of children and improve the efficiency and ultimately the cost-effectiveness of the entire education system.
We call upon all governments and urge them to:
give the highest policy and budgetary priority to improve their education systems to enable them to include all children regardless of individual differences or difficulties,
adopt as a matter of law or policy the principle of inclusive education enrolling all children in regular schools unless there are compelling reasons for doing otherwise,

Introduction
Learnado Da vinci is a Renaissance man with fascinating personalities in the Western art history. He had discovered scientifically, excelled in mathematics and was an artist. He used to observe constantly, experiment on things and inventing as well as draw. He did his work with perfection and prospered in almost everything he tried. His painting, drawings and sculptures have been kept for historic facts. Da vinci’s was trained in Florence at Andrea Del Verrochio’s workshop as a sculptor and a painter. Leonardo had curiosity and fascinating craves for knowledge that never left him. He was greatly influenced by Hugo van der Goes, his teacher and Verruchio. He was a teacher and his student’s shared a similar style of artwork. In Modern His beautiful work inspires everyone who comes around his arts even without knowing that Davinci was the one who had done it. He studied various gestures and poses in his study for Nativity of a mother and her child possibly when preparing for his main panel for his famous altar piece called the Virgin of the rocks. The most recognized and famous art work done by Davinci are; the Mona Lisa, Virgin of the Rocks, The last supper, St. Jerome in the wilderness, The baptism of Christ, child with st, Anne, and the virgin. Some others cannot be proven that he was the one who did since he never put signature in his work.
Leonardo’s paintings were considered an art that had outlived its time. He was considered a master in the since that his paintings had hidden messages that would astonish the world .He used Oil on poplar woods on some paintings such as Virgins on the rocks. There are two similar paintings with the same interpretation but the other one showed the halos. His painting did not show halos as his masters rejected the thought of Virgin Mary and Jesus being in an uncouth scenario. The painting showed Angel Uriel and john the Baptist who holds out his hands to suggest prayer towards Jesus.
Leonardo’s work used the light and shadow effect. Leonardo Da Vinci was fascinated with beauty especially when it came to women of class and status. In his hey days as a painter and sculptor he was also questioned on his sexuality because of the painting which came to be known as Vitruvian Man. He was once in love with a lady of the high chambers known as Isabella D’Este .This was said to have propagated the painting of La Belle Ferroniere painting on oil and canvas it showed how light falls on curved surfaces as can be seen in the paintings. His Best woman however was the Monalisa to the art world is the most redone portrait.
La belle on the other was among his many portraits and paintings of women paintings including Adoration of Magi where he formed a new style of painting which is known as chiaroscuro the contrast of colors from light to dark. Leonardo was raised by Christianity or the church since he wanted to be in good terms he depicted such paintings which had symbols of the church. Adoration of Magi was an illusion painting depicting the rise of a kingdom and fall of another kingdom through the son of a virgin. It was later re-painted showing magi in a manger surrounded by Pharisees and sheepherders introducing the birth of Jesus Christ.
Leonardo ventured into science after being incorporated in the Duke of Milan chambers He had outstanding paintings that he drew such as the big horse which was partly unfinished .His fascination of horses was true to the aspect of him actually stilling horses from the stables and drawing them as they fed in the fields. The Big horse which was a task he sketched but did not finish in time to present to the duke. The sketches on canvass drawn with ink show the precise movement of a horse with such grace and the boldness of the duke is evident with the knee lock horse movement. The master of art and creator of art is the description the underground art work describes Leonardo. It is evident that his art was to be immortalized and would be a great pillar in modern art. His art work was done in two periods early work in Florence which he painted, Madonna and child, the adoration of Kings and St Jerome. The next period was referred to as Milan period where he painted Monalisa. The last supper,
The Mona Lisa art work
This piece of work took Davinci 16yrs to finish since it was a masterpiece. This Art represents a portrait of Lisa Del Giocondo who was Francesco Del Gicondo’s wife also known as (Paris Louvre). There was an argument on if it was a fact or an opinion. A sensation of secrecy surrounds this painting, which is obscure in a soft light, creating an impression of attraction. This painting has a technique of painting which is known as sfumato—fumo in Italian means “smoke” meaning there painting has no contours or hard line in it. His painting has seamless changes between dark and light. This painting became famous since it had ambiguity, the smile in Mona lisa and its theft. The ambiguity is because there is s a debate on whether that is Lisa Del Giocondo or someone else. Her smile was the other fact that left it amazing. When one covers one side of her smile the other side was seen frowning. The art shows that she is not smiling brilliantly and she is not facing straight. Her faint smile is almost a smirk and this is seen when one gazes at the picture. Mona lisas arms, are torso, and head each twist faintly in a diverse direction, conveying a detained sense of progress. Davinci forged the technique of placing the subject adjacent to a landscape background. The painting had been stolen and when it was recovered it was stored at Louvre at the back of a bullet proof glass and its safe there. Leonardo investigates the possibilities of oil plant in the drapery’s soft folds, texture of skin. The deeply retreating background, with its meandering rocks and rivers formations, is an example of Leonardo’s individual view of the natural planet: one in which everything is full of energy and movement, since it is viewed in liquid and in flux.
The last supper art work
The last supper original painting faded and deteriorated after very few years since it had been finished. It seems like he was experimenting with this one and it did not go well Jesus feet were visible in a way they foretold his death on the cross. It only took Davinci 3years to complete it. This painting is famous due to the religious fact since it ha s Christ and his twelve Disciples. The painting has a hidden message such as there is a reflection Jesus with a hidden woman caring a baby and a templar knight seated at the table. Leonardo captured the moment when Christ tells his apostles that one will betray him, and at the foundation of the Eucharist. His statement brings about a visible response, and is effected in the painting in the form of a wave of sensation amongst the apostles. The reactions are expressed by each apostle, and are referred to as “motions of the mind.” Despite the dramatic reaction of the apostles, Leonardo inflicts a sense of order on the landscape. Christ’s head is at the middle of the masterpiece, and is surrounded by a halo-like architectural gap. Christ’s head is at the disappearance point toward the perspective projection lines of the architectural are setting union. The apostles are arranged four groups around him of three united by their posture and gesture. Judas is on the opposite side of the table, and has been set apart from the other apostles by his shadowed face.
