Mind Map

Here is something we did in class. we had to choose 3 names from the Mortar and Pestle mind
map and turn them into drawings. this is how it turned out.








We were told to make a Mind Map for Mortar and Pestle and also another one for ourselves. well, i never had a chance to make any mind maps before, i wasnt even sure if i was doing the right thing. Untill i stoped thinking and began the process. I wasnt sure how to start it so i attach a photo of a pair of mortar and pestle. then i started making squares. i was half way through untill i found it kind of interesting! I didnt even have anything to write at the beggining but before i knew it i recieved full of knowledge about Mind Map.

Below are the pictures of my first Mind Map and the Mortar & Pestle Mind Map.








We were also told to write a report or an essay for this topic and here it is.



It's simple but full of usage. It is made from different kind of stones. sometimes the mortar is made of wood which makes it lighter and more affordable. Back then when there was no mechanical help people invented this so they could use it for so many things. they could crush the spices into powder so it will be easier to cook or to be kept. although its small but its quite heavy and its because its made entirely out of stone. i think the reason they made it out of stone was to keep it for a long time. because smashing the mortar and pestle to each other for a long time would cause it to break.

Even nowdays it gets used for so many jobs. some still use it to turn things into powders, some countries use it to mix the food they make. Even doctors and pharmacist use this tool. as i said this tool can make things into powder so thats why its also a great tool for pharmacist. they use it to smash the drugs into poswers to make the drugs they have in mind.
so as we can see this tool has so many usage. it wasnt just made for past, it was made to be used in future as well.
