Walt: make food around the world

I really enjoyed food technology because every monday we make different cultural food. We had to make chop suey because we were heading to Tonga. I also enjoyed making chop suey because you had to mix lots of other recipes. I didn’t like making pesupo because it tasted funny to me that is why I don’t like it. Pesupo is kind of tricky to make also because you have to combined staff really quick. At home I tried making rich chocolate tarts because I told my family that it tasted so nice and that they had to try it out. When they tasted the rice chocolate tart they wanted me to make more. Next time I would love to make an Afghanistan culture food that they make for a celebration or someones birthday.

Technology Lesson

Walt: write a narrative.

Technology

This week in technology we are learning how to construct a joint. Every Monday mornings the year 7 students go to Tamaki College. We go by bus to Tamaki College.

The first process was planning. I found the planning very easy because all we had to do was think of what you are going to make. I drew my five ideas. All the measurements has to be accurate. If you make a mistake your project will be ruined.

The second process was to learn the safety rules. The first and most important rule is don’t fiddle because if you fiddle you’re not going to finish your work or pay attention to the teacher. The next rule was stools in. If your stool is not in Mr. Grundy will take the stool away from you and you would have to stand up for the whole lesson. The final rule is closed shoes. If you don’t have closed shoes you could get hurt when using tools and it won’t be Mr Grundy’s fault it would be your fault because you didn’t follow the rules. Following the rules is really important because if you don’t you're going to get yourself hurt.


I enjoy technology because we get to do lots of fun stuff and my classmates enjoy it, too. I think we should stay at hard materials because it just so much fun and the things we make we get to keep.
