Guinea pig show the difference effect on the difference pitch of the music.
If the music have a lot of high pitch, it likely that the guinea pig will be excited and
more active.
Difference guinea pig have difference repose to the sound of music depend on their
preference. For instance, some guinea pig may like the smooth music, but other
may like the loud tone music.
The guinea pig are more likely to claim by listening to the soft music.

rat that exposed to the music different time before running into the maze have
different effect on the improvement in the memory of the rat. Furthermore, the rat
that listening to music before and after running into the maze show the greatest
brain improvement, especially the memory. While the rat that listen to music during
they are running in the maze show lower brain improvement result.

Guinea should have a balance diet by receive the proper balance of nutrients from
fruits and vegetable and high quality guinea pig food. Furthermore, the food that is for
another animal can’t be given to guinea pig. For instance, if guinea pig eat the rabbit
food, they will be sick because the rabbit food contain small amount of antibiotics that
may harm guinea pig. Some example of food for guinea pig such as timothy lay. The
good food for guinea pig should contain the high amount of vitamin C. The food
should be fresh and safe. Avoid the food that include seed and nut or dried fruit. Also,
you should avoid food that contain artificial colors and sweetness.

Goal: To be able to understand how music effect on guinea pig
Reflect Paragraph:
After finished the research, I think that I have learned a lot of new knowledge that I
never know before. Now, I understand how the music effect on the mood of the guinea pig.
In addition, I think that I can expand my research to my next research question. After I have
been finish reading this article, there are many question that pop up in my head that I want to
expand more about it. I will connect the information from this research will my further
research to be understand the concept truly.

Goal: To understand the difference effect of the guinea pig approving to the music at
different period of time
Reflect paragraph:
After I have finished the research, I think that I understand almost of the text. But,
some of the part. I still don’t really understand. Furthermore, I understand how different
period of time that guinea pig approaching to the music result in different brain improvement.
For instance, the guinea pig that listen to music before and after running the maze show the
greatest brain improvement, especially the memory. While the guinea pig that listen to music
while they are running in the maze show lower brain improving.

Goal: To understand what type of food is best for guinea pig and what food should be avoid.
Reflect paragraph:
After I have been finish this research, I think that I receive many important knowledge
that will help me to select the food for guinea pig. In addition, I also know that which food is
good or bad for guinea pig. I can also use the knowledge from the article to help me feed the
balance diet to the guinea pig. Moreover, guinea pig cannot eat other animal food because
other animal food may contain the harmful substance for them. Also, guinea should receive
both pellets food and nutrient from both fruits and vegetable. The best food for guinea pig is
the timothy hay.

Goal: To do our proposal
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I will make sure that every part of the proposal will be finish. In addition, I will
edit and add the significant information into the proposal. I also brainstorming about the
technique and how we can improve it. I also finish the new planning of the maze. This will
make the both two maze have the same level of difficulty. So that the result that we collected
will become more precise and accurate.

Date: 14/11/18
Goal: To start working on building the maze by following our design
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I will start to making the maze by following our maze plan and design.
Furthermore, I will also make sure that the edge or the side of the maze will be soft and not
caused harm to the guinea pig while testing. We might add the soft plastic to coner the edge.
We might adjusted the size of the maze that is more suitable for the guinea pig. So that the
guinea pig can find the way to escaped the maze easier and not be affected by the size of
maze.

Date 16/11/18
Goal To finished the maze that have been already fix the design
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I will create the maze following the plan that we have been fixed. In addition, I
will cutting the line that will be the wall on the cart board by measuring the cart board by
following the plan. Furthermore, I also decided the height of the cart board that will be the
maze wall. So, the guinea pig cannot escape or jump out of the maze. We also prepare the
dough as a thing to stick the wall and base together.

Date 19/11/18
Goal: To finish building the wall of the maze
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I finish building some of the maze wall by stick the base of the cardboard with
the wall that we cut. In addition, I also using the clay to be the material that use to make the
cardboard stronger. So that, the guinea pig cannot break out the wall and escape out of the
maze. But the clay and the cardboard is not enough to building all of the wall of the maze.
So, we decided to prepare the clay to stick with the cardboard and the base.

Date 21/11/18
Goal:To finish building the wall of the maze
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I finish building the wall about 80% of the maze. But, I will use the hot glue to
stick the side of the wall of the cardboard. This will make the wall of the maze become more
stronger. In addition, I also measure the width and length of the wall that I need to be cut. I
also create the clay to use to stick the wall and the base of the maze.

Date 26/11/18
Goal: To complete the rest of the wall
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I finish about 90% of the maze wall. I adjust the clay that it is use to support
the structure of the maze. Some of the clay that I put in the previous class was fall out. Some
part of the wall, I decided to rebuild it. Overall, the maze was almost finish. We decided that
we will start open the music to the guinea pig. So, we can start the experiment as soon as
our maze completely finish.

Date 28/11/18
Goal: To complete and fix some part of the wall
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I use the hot glue to stick the side of the cardboard together. This will
increase the strength of the maze. In addition, this will have more strength to support the
power of the guinea pig. I also adjust and fixed some of the maze wall that are weak. Some
of the wall are broking. So, I decided to cut the new cardboard to substitute the old one. The
work was complete well.

Date: 3/12/18
Goal: Opened the music for the guinea pig to listen before start the experiment
Reflect paragraph:
Today, I opened the music to the guinea pig for the entire day. The guinea pig are for
comfortable with me and other group member. During the day, I use the technique that I
learn about how to take care of animal to adapted for the guinea pig. The guinea pig have
less fear with I stand near them. Also, I can hold them up much easier. This will make the
experiment become more accurate as the guinea pig will not fear to run in the maze.
