OUR POLICIES

this is my POLICIES 

1. Be able to have a driver's license at 13  if you are sensible
   I  have to walk a lot and I wish I had a car. I’m actually pretty good at driving. It’ll save me from taking the bus all the time and I won’t get run over.
   
   

2.  Legalize weed. It helps with stress and it’s not that harmful. People will smoke it anyway even if it’s illegal so you should just make it legal. It would also be safer for people if it was legal. If people grow their own they know where it’s coming from. 
   
   

3. We should not have a four day work week . People will get stressed because you’re doing so much work in a day. It will be hard to hangout with friends after school.
   
   

4.  School uniforms should be cheaper. They are really expensive. People would have more money for food and paying bills.

The Design Process/ home economics

 the design process

We made pancakes for our Home Economics assessment. 

Miss Birth was our stakeholder. We asked her what she liked & disliked. We wrote a shopping list and found out the pricing on the Pak n save website.

Our group did a time management plan for our recipe making.

This is a recipe that we are using. ( Makes 3 pancakes) 

Sunday pancakes.

1 cup Self Raising Flour

2 Tbsp White Sugar

½ tsp finely grated lemon zest (optional)

1 cup  Milk (or Soy/Rice milk)

1 egg, lightly beaten

30g Butter, melted (or margarine)

2 bananas, sliced

1 punnet blueberries (or frozen berries defrosted)

Flavoured Syrup - Butterscotch, Caramel, Vanilla, Maple or Honey Maple.

Method:

1. Sift the Self Raising Flour and Sugar into a bowl. 

2. Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients. 

3.  Add the lemon zest, Milk, egg and melted butter/margarine and whisk to combine. 

4. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium low heat and grease lightly with butter or oil.

5. For each pancake, place 2 tablespoons of batter into the pan.

Turn and cook for a further 1 to 2 minutes or until the pancakes are cooked through.

Evaluation

This is the feedback  we got from Miss Birch. 

Kineka and Candesse and Chloe 

 

Thanks for the delicious pancakes last week, it was such a sweet surprise!

 

I loved the colours of the toppings - the vibrant rich colours of the fruit contrasted nicely against the soft white cream. 

 

The pancakes were delicious and the batter was very smooth. I liked the overall presentation ! 

week 8

the question is this English is the most important subject to learn in school

no reading is the most important subject to learn at school when you are older you need to read.

chromatography

Today we learnt what Chromatography and did a little experiment. 

What is Chromatography? Chromatography- the process of separating a mixture based on the pigments.

Pigments- Pigments can be separated based on their solubility. More soluble the pigment the higher they move with the water. The less soluble the lower they will stay on the chromatography paper.

AIM- To separate the different pigments from ink using chromatography
HYPOTHESIS- I think that it will change colour.
EQUIPMENT- Felt tip pen, filter paper strips, test tube, measuring cylinder, pencil.

Method-

1- Draw a line across the filter paper in pencil, 5cm from the bottom.
2- Draw a coloured dot in the centre of the line.
3- Measure out 10mL of water and place in the test tube.
4- Place the filter paper in the test tube and fold over the side. MAKE SURE THE PENCIL LINE/ DOT IS NOT IN THE WATER.
5- Wait for 5 minutes and observe the results

Steam week 7

Today we are learning about steam a problem is rising sea levels. 

We are going to find out a way to use sea rising sea levels to make fuel and to make electricity.

We are also going to find out  a way to reduce the amount of sea level by digging halls in the sea so that it will suck the water out of the sea. We are also going to find  way to stop antarctic from melting

week 5

The principal is the most important person in the school because he/she would have to runs the school and are the leader to the other staff. If you are try to get into the school for a new start of the year the principal would ask the other staff to help him/her to show the there people or kids around. That is why I think the  principal is the most important person in the school.
