1. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
2. READ INSTRUCTIONS CORRECTLY
3. KNOW HOW TO MEASURE CORRECTLY
4. SHOW RESPECT

These instructions are what we need to be showing all the time and inside of the class while cooking. TOday we were going to be making quiche and the ingredients we would need were - 

1. Two slips of pastry
2. Ham
3.  eggs
4. Oven 
5. Knife
6. Muffin Tray
7. Whisk
8. Cheese 

The first thing you want to do is preheat your oven to 250 degrees, after you preheat your oven you want to crack your  4 eggs into your bowl and whisk them after you have whisked them add ham and cheese until you have well combined. Put your mixture to the side and start to cut your pastry into the size of your muffin tins. Place the pastry into the tin and start to scoop out the hard parts of your mixture (ham, cheese) into the cups of pastry, after  you fill the pastry with the ham and cheese pour the egg into a cup and slowly fill the pastry up with egg. If you have any pastry left you can either put it on the top or double it up before you add your mixture.  

Inquiry Lesson 1 Reflection

WALA: Our Technological World. 

In the morning block we discussed what technology is and what different technology items there is, some of the items we discussed were clocks, watches, lamps, T.V, washing machines, clothes dryer, hair dryer and a lot more.  

The definition we have come up with today was, Technology is something that has a useful purpose.

Technology I use at Home -

Fridge and Oven -

A fridge is used every single day, because if you were to turn your fridge off with food in it, it will likely defrost your food, cause a small amount of flooding, and your food will go off. This is just one of the many items we use in my house hold. The next piece of technology is the very well known in households, the oven can be used for many things but the main reason or purpose is for it to be used for cooking your food, weather it's the oven or the stove. The oven is used pretty much every single day in my household, the only time we don't use the oven is when we get take out so things like pizza, chinese anything fast and easy.

Table and Chairs -

Even though when we think of Technology we straight away think of TV's, phones, laptops and pretty much anything that runs on electricity, but that's not true because you can get a lot of things that don't need electricity like spoons, tables, chairs, forks, beds. I know it's not really something you think of when it comes to technology but table and chairs are definitely a piece of technology, if you didn't know technology is something, item or object that was created by a human to make our lives easier.

Oven and Washing Machine -

These are technological items that we use nearly everyday unless you feel like having a lazy night and ordering pizza for dinner. Things like ovens, washing machines, microwaves, forks, spoons and knives are practically things we use everyday maybe only missing a day or two without using them. These may be items that come to your head while thinking about technology, but the main point is that these are nearly everyday technological items that we use.

Agricultural Technology -

Agriculture is farming and gardening, so things like cattle farming an example is like farming cows, sheep, pigs so pretty much animals and gardening is like planting plants and growing fruits, tractor, veggies and flowers.

Agriculture is used in every country, and the technology they use are things like, water hoses, shovels, spades, greenhouses and garden lamps. 

Construction Technology -

Construction involves building things like houses, buildings, apartments, offices and a lot more, you might have construction items at home so things like hammers, shovels, drills, crain, diggers, bulldozers, forklift, nails, nail gun and a lot more items. These are all the different technological items that you can find at a construction site or if you search construction.

First Blog Post For Term 4

WALT: write a blog post about our school holidays.

Good Morning or Afternoon to whoever may be reading this, as some of you might know it is the beginning of Term 4 which is the last term before the long school holidays, which is the holiday that leads up to Christmas. In this blog post I will be telling and describing to you the most interesting/fun things I did in the holidays.

Something I really enjoyed and found fun about the holidays was going to a big family reunion on my dads side, I thought it was really fun and interesting because there was a lot of dancing, laughing, jokes and a LOT of food, but it did take a very long time to end even when we left it wasn't finished.

The things I liked the most about the family reunion was that there was a lot of cultural food and dancing. 

LINK TO CULTURAL DANCING 

Another thing that I enjoyed was actually watching a documentary, even though documentaries are usually boring this one was actually to me very interesting. This documentary was based on a man named George and a Lady  named Joy and the film was based in 1966 in Africa. George was a hunter and Joy was someone who walked around the bush and dry lands of Africa, George and Joy became really close and soon married each other. One day George went hunting for a female lion that had killed a person and someone cattle. He found the female lion and shot it but only when he had shot it did he realize that the female had cubs.

They searched for the cubs and they found 3 of them.  Joy and George offered to raise them but they could only take 1 so they talk a female who they named Elsa. As they raised Elsa they had plans of releasing her to the wild where she could run free, but Elsa didn't know how to fend and look after herself so George and Joy started finding was so Elsa could defend and hunt for herself. Some of these ways were putting dead carcases on the back of there truck and driving away so she could chase and run after them, after a small amount of time she knew how to be a wild lion and she was released, I am not sure what else has happened because I haven't finished watching it.

I think the things I am most looking forward to this term is all the fun and exciting things we will be doing this term, some of those things are going to MOTAT, visiting Te Tuhi again and a lot more other things throughout the term. I'm not sure which will be my favourite because there is a lot more to come and I don't know if those days will be good or bad but right now I think it going to be MOTAT I just hope i'm with one or two of my friends so we can spend it together.
