Government
The this activity we had to brainstorm what you thought a government means. After that you had to research about the New Zealand government. After that we had to create a poster, in our own words to show anyone who didn't understand what government means.

Critical Literacy
In social studies, we have a matrix that we do independently when our group isn't with a teacher, when you are with a teacher your doing a workshop, my first workshop was with Miss Mclaren, doing critical literacy, this means just digging deeper into what your thinking, reading ect.
Our task was looking at pictures and, writing down questions, and things we see in the picture. This was training our brains to think deeper.
Prime minister
My second activity I did on the matrix was called "Prime Minister" this activity was to find a female prime minister and write a fact sheet about them.
For my female prime minister I did Sanna Marin, who it the prime of Finland.
This was really easy we just had to find out different types of information about the person we were studying about. Something I found differcult was finding the correct information.

Respect @ Hornby High
In the past few weeks since starting 2020, we have been learning about what respect looks like, feels like and sounds like. To me respect means, treating people the way you want to be treated. Respect is really important, not just to people, but to everyone and everything! Respect is something that should be shown all day everyday.
Today we looked at, how we respect animals, environment and possessions, we made a table on all the things the groups came up with.

Kiwi Baker
This term for cooking we are doing a Kiwi Baker challenge. Last week for our second practical we made scones, they tasted really good, especially with jam!
The appearance of the scone were okay, Mrs Hindson kindly popped through for next door and gave us a couple tips on what we could of done next time, so we will know for next time.
As I said the scones tasted really good!
Some issuse that we came across while baking our scones was when we put the ingredients into the bowl there wasn't enough and our dough wasn't right so when added just a little more and it came right, but we had to keep mixing the ingredients through which made us over mix it just a little bit.
Something I learn't was that when making scones, if you put them closer together they cook nicer and become more golden.
