Term 3 reflection

          Term three reflection
WALT: Reflect on our term
I enjoyed making this and having a think of what I did this term and the fun I had doing it.
I found it challenging to decide what was best and what was the most enjoyable.
To be BTB I could add more different types of text to explain what fun we did this term.

Speech writing

Speech writing * Funny things my Mum and dad do*
Yea I know you thinking oh no Grace is here but really why would you think that. In these next few minutes or two, your going to listen to meeee yip who wants to listen to me. While I do so you're going to. Today I am going to be finding out if parents think they are funny while they do but do we. Most days I hear this, GRACEEEEEEEE COME HERE and I am like oh here we go again. Put your hand up if this happens to you yep just what I thought. Ok so my parents don't say the funniest things ever but I know some parents out there that do. So my parents think they are hilarious but I don't find half of the jokes they say funny. like every single night they are like GRACE TIDY YOUR ROOM RIGHT NOW and if I don't can anyone take a guess while it goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on saying if you don't tidy your room I am going to keep asking you and really I don't find that funny because I have to do all of the work. And eventually I do tidy my room but it takes me a while today I think we have found out that parents really aren't  funny ( well to me they arent ) anyways in conclusion we have come to an end and i guess we will go back  to our houses and get yelled at again for not feeding the dog or the chickens but nevermind we forget about those days and my parent are awesome but when I get told off I really do get told off ok that's the end of me blabbing my head off you can come to ask me any time to blab my head off cause I do it all the time. Thanks for listening Bye

Food tech

This Thursday we did food tech our group made a big chocolate bumble bee cake that was three cakes high. I made the cakes at home because we only had an hour to decorate and make everything And it takes an hour to make a cake and let it cool down. So we didn't have enough time to do it. To be BTB ( better than before )  we could put buttercream to make the fondant stick. 

How to compost

A while ago I and Bella made how composting works and what you need to have a good compost. Do you compost? Do you know anything about composting? When you compost it helps all of the food scraps instead of putting them in the rubbish bin that goes straight to the landfill. When you compost the foods that you put in disintegrate and then it turns in to the soil.

How many Blog posts I do a month/Year

How many blog post I do a month/year

This chart above explains how many blog posts I do a year/month. The yellow explains how many I did in 2017 the red explains how many I did in 2017 and the blue explains how many I have been doing this year ongoing. To change and make more blog posts I could schedule posts for 1 each day so I can post one every day.

!!Building garden boxes!!

This is when we were building the garden boxes to go in the garden it took our group 2 days because the wood was really really hard and especially to hammer in the nails in was hard. lately we have been filling them in with soil and vegetables.

This is when it was a sunny day and it was tuakuna teina time so we got to do it with our buddies. As you can see this was the first day because we hadn't started anything really.

As you can see this is all the garden boxes finished because they are all in the garden. The day after this we were ready to plant because it rained that night so they were ready for the plants to get planted the next day.

Making ready salted chips.

Ps: We don't have any photos of the chips.
WALT: To determine what method makes the crispy and tastiest chips.
Last week we made some chips depending on if we wanted to cook them in the microwave or the oven we picked the microwave. The oven ones turned out better than our ones because they were much crisper they were quick and easy prosses because they only had three ingredients.

Making hokey pokey!!!!

WALT: Explain the science behind making the hokey pokey

When we made this we had to use 3 ingredients which are Baking soda, Golden syrup, and sugar

When you add the baking soda you have to stir very very quickly otherwise the mixture will dry hard and stick to the side of the pot. The science behind making hockey pocky is that the sodium bicarbonate releases gas that makes the sugar mixture puff up which is why you need to have heat which causes it to fluff up.

I enjoyed eating it at the end about it was a little bit burnt because we kept it in the pot for a little bit to

 Long. I found it challenging to try and not burn the mixture because if you do it doesn't taste as nice as it does when it is not burnt. To be BTB we could have used a fish slice to flip it off.
