Mince Pie

WALT: check on our food every 5 minutes.

In this Technology session we made mince pies. We made the mince with gravy and poured it onto a pastry on a tray. We baked it in the oven in 180 degrees in 15 minutes. It was very ifo when we ate it and when we went back all the boys wanted some. Me and Gary made a mistake because we were supposed to make two pies instead we made one big one. The most challenging part was to try not to burn the pie in the oven so every now and then we checked on the food. 

During our cooking time, we had to follow some instructions that were written on the board. Mrs Tuipulotu didn't tell us what to do because as Year 7 and 8 students we didn't need the teacher to keep telling us what to do. In the end we ended up making a Mince Pie, that tasted delicious. We were really proud of ourselves. 

My favourite part of this session was actually eating it. Thank you for reading this blogpost about my experience at technology. Feel free to leave a comment. Thank you, much love. Metui.

Pinwheel Pizza Rolls!!

IALT: make pinwheel pizza rolls. 
Today was our first lesson of technology with Ms Tuipulotu and I was excited to hear we were making something related to Pizza.
We were given pur instruction and ingredients and we began. We finished making the pizza roll in about 30 minutes and then we set them on a baking tin then put them into the ovens AT 180 degrees for 15 minutes. Me and my buddy garys were a little bit burnt but were the crunchiest and the most delicious. I hope you enjoyed reading this reflection as much as I did making it. Leave a comment if you're hungry. Much love to Everyone out there.

Technology Reflection:T2W5

Today was the final session we had with Miss Ferguson, it was also the most stressful for her because I could tell by her voice and her face. All we did for this session was just add the missing touches to our clocks then we put the clock mechanism in then we finished. 

It took some time for me because I had to paint the front of the back, we also had this weird conversation about the front of the front, the back of the front, the front of the back and the back of the back. After painting the front of the back I had to wait even more because Miss was glueing everything together.

I just play some games with some friends to pass the time until finally it was glued. She put the clock on and then she took a photo of it and me. I am very proud of the effort I put into making this clock and it was challenging at times because I was way behind when the class started painting so i had ton focus and I ended being one of the 5 who finished first. Unfortunately one student didn't even get to take her clock home because she had been away for mor then 5 week including this one.

Thank you for reading this blogpost about technology, Leave a comment if you think my clock looks good (it's the red and blue bull). Much love to you all.

Technology Reflection:T2W8

In session of technology I was very efficient after I got a talk from the teacher. I just started making my first project which is a bull and I struggle at first but with the help of my friends I managed to finish and go on to my next project. I chose a bull because I think it looked cool and because my favourite team in nba used to be chicago bulls.



When I finished my first 3D concept I was very proud because I made it myself and with some help from my friends. During this moment we had visitors from Whakatane and they went around and asked some questions about blogging and how we use our netbooks and one of the men gave us his email so he can see our blogs. My next project was a shield and it was pretty easy to do now that I knew the measurements.

We packed up and left to the bus and on the way back we sang some songs. Thank you for reading my reflection about technology and please leave a comment, much love to you all.

Collage About Me

WALT:

In this DLO I have made a scramble of photos that I think represent me, my 

favourite thing on this is the Tongan Flag that represents me and my culture .

I am very proud of my work because it was original and I was stuck but with 

the help of my friends I got the photos and now look what I have done. Miss Ferguson

was very happy too because of what I done in only 20 minutes but unfortunately during this  

I got side tracked with make a avatar for me. Please leave a comment for my collage about me and much love to you all.

Technology Reflection: T2W7

This session of technology was alright I guess because it was quite boring just sitting down and drawing, I was finished with my concept ideas so Miss Ferguson gave me some cardboard and told me what to do. My final design I chose was a bull and once I finished it I gave it to some friends to trace like my friend Kiko and Kauri, when I traced my other it wasn't perfect but Miss said that it's okay. I was feeling proud at that moment because it looked great and I help my friends and once finished cutting them out we had to cut a square for the clock base and then make a small thing out of the cardboard to make our project look 3D like in the photo. The lesson finished and we left back to the bus and headed back to school. Overall I was proud of this lesson because I made a lot of progress along with some other boys and girls. Thank you for reading this reflection about my experience at technology, please leave a comment and much love to you all.

Different Types of Clock

WALT: learn new thing with our experiences at technology

In this DLO we had to add photos about different clocks, at first it was boring

but while looking at all of the clock I discovered new and amazing clock like the

ones in this DLO. Researching I felt very exited and enthusiastic about clocks and

when Miss Ferguson said we were doing clock I wasn't happy but now I am exited 

to make them.

The types of clocks I found were ballon clock, pedestal clock, slave clock and even 

more. I also got idea from others and we are currently making clocks and I can't wait 

to show it off to all my family and friends. Anyways thank you for reading this reflection

about clocks, please leave a comment if you learnt something new about clocks today

and much love to you all.

Technology Reflection:T1W4

WALT: reflect on something that we have done with in depth thinking.                                       Today was my first day in Ms Ferguson's class. I was excited and sad because I was leaving the best class and going on to a new one. We logged into our netbooks and were showed what we were supposed to be doing and it was kind of boring. We all got distracted by making a avatar and therefore I didn't get that much on to my work. While Ms was cracking jokes to herself I felt sleepy from yesterday because my legs were giving up on me and my eyes slowly closing. The lesson was almost finished and we packed up early because we needed our project from our last class Hard Work Materials. As you can see it is a box and even though most of my group made a box I am still proud of my work. My time at tech was a good one today and I look forward to working with Ms Ferguson in the future and see what she planning for us to make. Thank You for reading, please leave a comment if you have any feedback and feedforward for me to use in the future and good bye.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Technology Reflection: T2W3

WALT: reflect on our experiences in the past.

Today is our last session with Mr Grundy and it was a good session for me because I had finally finished my project which is a box. I was overwhelmed when I had finished because unfortunately I was one of the few who had finished. My friends like Gary and Sene finished and some of the other were close to finishing like Kiko.

My project is for my Mum because she need something to store her things like change, jewelry and stuff like lipstick. It can also be for my Dad because he can use it storing things like his charger and his things like marker and pens. It can be for anyone but when I get it chosing is going to be hard.

The box can also be for decoration for a shelf, so it can be for a lot of thing to be honest but I just haven't decided. I might use it for myself so I can use it for thing like mouth guards, socks and even fidget spinners.

My paper work was the only thing I needed to finished and I think that I finished it to my highest standard. I could tell that Mr Grundy was stressed because of the amount of people he needed to help but this session he only help those who were nearly finish because they would be easier to help.

When the lesson finished we said goodbye and just left to the bass and came back to school. 

Technology Reflection:T1W5

WALT: measure the wood to begin our project.
In this session I was feeling sad because my hard work had gone missing. I waited until Mr. Grundy would come to me and then I got a new paper and then I drew my final project. My final project is a box, you can hide a lot of thing but i'm going to paint a house over it to make it look cool. At first I felt confused when I was measuring the wood but then my good friend Sene came along and helped me finish so when next session I can come back and get ready to saw.

Technology Reflection:T1W3

WALT remember the rule in class
In this DLO I talk about my experience at technology for the second week.\
The thing I found challenging was the ideas because it was hard to come up
with them because coming up with something to make, I could pick one it
was so hard. Thank you for reading, much love.
