My home ect work

 Today I have to make a blog post about the work we have been doing in home economics we had to create a product that we made for someone. We had to think of a person that we made the food for, My stakeholder for our product was whaea raewyn. We also made a shopping list of all the ingredients that we used. We made a time management plan of how much time it took to do each thing. My group added up the amount of food in each pack and the price then we find the amount of each ingredients we needed. We got the pricing from the countdown website.

1 cup self raising flour

Method

2}Add the golden syrup to the bowl with the creamed butter and sugar and beat until fluffy.

3}Mix in the flour to the creamed sugar until the texture is suitable to roll into balls.

4} Place on a paper-lined baking tray. allowing room for biscuits to spread.

5} Press biscuits gently with a fork and at 180C for 15 min.

The feedback from our stakeholder:

Thank you so much for the delicious Caramel cookies, I really enjoyed them.

 

The cookies had a crispy crunch to them which is my favorite texture in that type of biscuit. 

The shape, size, and thickness was even just right.

They also had a delicious caramel flavor - it was perfect. 

They were a tiny bit oily which can sometimes happen if the butter boils, this was a minor issue though.

 

Keep up the great work, I'm happy to be your taste tester anytime!

Self-evaluation: I think my group worked well but next time I think we could change ourselves a bit more.

Chinese New Year

 For the last two weeks to celebrate the Chinese new year we made a slide about their traditions what food they eat and the Myths that they believe. 

Here is the slide. 

Lucky things for Rats Colors: blue, gold, green Numbers: 2, 3 Flowers: lily, African violet, valley lily Directions of auspiciousness: southeast, northeast Directions of wealth: southeast, east Directions of love: west. Chinese new year has 12 animals 1 for every year and every 12 years it restarts. I was born on the year of the rat.

Unlucky things Colors: yellow, brown Numbers: 5, 9.

Careers Fit for Rats Because of their independence and imagination, they are suitable for creative jobs. These include authors, editors, and artists. However, if they join a team, their creative outlet may be blocked. Rats also pay attention to fine detail. They are fit for technical work, such as engineering and architecture.

ADREANLINE FOREST

 Last week on Thursday we went to the adrenaline forest. When we got there we did the safety brief and learned how to connect our harness to each obstacle. There were six-levels one was the easy and six was the hardest. 

After the safety briefing me and my friend Jacob went to level 3 and it was a fun and tricky level after that I did level 3/ 1

I use my car values by respecting the teachers and the staff.

Here is some photos.
