Do now week 4 -2/2

 Rugby is the most definitive sport of Aotearoa:

I agree that rugby is the most definitive sport in Aotearoa. The reason is that it is the national sport and when people think about NZ rugby is one of the things they think about. So that is why I think rugby is the most definitive sport of Aotearoa.

I Agree schools should have more mufti days. I think we should have more of them because school uniforms aren't really that comfortable like for example spending 6 1/2 hours in a stiff uniform wouldn't be the best. For girls wearing a skirt in the cold isn't good, yes we can wear tights but that doesn't block out the cold as much so being in mufti we don't have to wear uniforms suited for summer. So that is why I think we should have more mufti days.

Crepes with fresh fruits

This week for cooking we made crepes, all three of us was there so we had fewer things to do since the jobs are evenly distributed. It was pretty easy to make because it was similar to the pikelets that we made last week.

Like I said it was pretty easy to make, you just have to put the batter in the pan and wait for it to bubble a little bit then flip it. On the inside, you can put pretty much whatever but in mine, I put some hazelnut spread and bananas but you can also put jam, syrup and other toppings.

When making them it wasn't messy and It tasted really good so I would do it again.

Do now week 3

Cats are better than dogs

I disagree with this because I think that dogs are better than cats.                                                                      I think that they are better because their scratches are less painful than cat scratches. I just find them to be a little bit more friendly. Personally I think dogs are cuter than cats but that's up to you. Dogs win this case for me.

drawing with a pair

  

The IP skill that I used today was….

non-verbal communication, verbal communication and actively listening.

Using this IP skill helped her and I draw our picture.


This helped with the activity because we were using non-verbal communication by using our hands to show the shape of the thing that we are trying to draw.


Today I worked well with Emalea. An example of when we worked well together was when she was describing the different shapes I had to draw.

If I got to do the activity again, I would be more descriptive.

I worked at level 3 of Hellison's Behaviour Model. Examples of what I did to show that I worked at this level are I didn't need the teacher's supervision and it was a self directed work.

Pikelets

 

For the first practical lesson of the term, we made Pikelets.
There are usually 3 or 4 people in our group but it was only me and Lhysette. We worked really well because we just communicate better. 

It was pretty easy to make but it was a bit time consuming. When making the batter it was easy but when we were mixing the egg and the sugar it was hard because we haven't used that type of whisk  before. 
 
When we finished making them, they tasted and smelt like normal pancakes but more sugary. When I first tasted it, it was a bit plain but when I got home I put some chocolate syrup and it made it taste better.

Over all I really like it and it was easy to make but it just takes a bit longer to do because of how small we made them.
