Reflection.

 So on Wednesday this week we made these custard tart pastry thingies and we actually did good. I didn't yell at my teammates and they cooperated. We worked together and the finished product was amazing, I was just sad that I couldn't put the chocolate sauce on the tarts because we ran out of time and the sauce was washed away. Other than that, the cooking was successful, but we need to work on our time management, that was a big factor. So yeah that's how food tech went and I'm actually starting to enjoy it because we're doing well.

About me.

My name is Kiro, I’m 14 and I go to Bay Of Islands College. I’m maori and I live with my mother, father, brother and my brothers girlfriend. I like english, because all I do is write my mind and explain things, it’s pretty easy. I’m being challenged by food tech because my group mates are clueless. My goal is to be best year 10 boy in terms of smartness. I have achieved a high excellence in my english test and I didn’t think that existed until now. I also like playing sports. I also like making friends. :) be my friend. Boom done goodbye.

There's my face. enjoy :)

Sticky pudding with butterscotch sauce.

Yesterday we made sticky pudding with butterscotch sauce. It uh, didn't turn out good because the pudding tasted like pure seawater but cake version. Was nasty as. Next time we gonna make it better by actually putting more sugar than baking soda. I think that's where we went wrong. Probably because of me shouting at my braindead teamates, well they're not that bad. But they ask me what to do all the time when the instruction are right there and it ticks me off. We need to work on coordination and overall happiness cause no-ones happy with me shouting at them even if they need it. So yeah that's my reflection.

Meaning of food.

The meaning of food is life, you need food to have energy to move around, you need food to preform daily tasks and most of all, you need food to live. Our organs need protein to digest and process so we can move. The body needs protein to grow and develop. The way of life is literally based on food. We wouldn't exist if we didn't have food. Survival is a key trait in humans and food is needed to survive. That is the meaning of food to me.

The rabbit proof fence.

The rabbit proof fence is a very dark and informative film. It talks about the stolen generations, a generation of aboriginals that were taken away from their families and fostered by Europeans. The Europeans were scared of the aboriginals so the Europeans oppressed them by shaping them into the way they thought was right. Shaping them into slaves. Molly, Daisy and Gracie are a part of the stolen generations and the movie revolves around how the trio escape a correction centre. Gracie never made it home. I like the fact that Molly and Daisy made it home and had the confidence to speak out about these unjust actions. 

PST Conference.

In maths, science, social studies, english and music I've been doing amazing! my grades are like M or higher and I've been aiming for only excellences. Food technology is a bit hard because my group people are hard to manage but I can adapt. Health and Physical Education is going amazing because I always show up, do my best and get merits.

I will reach all of these goals by putting in work and researching the subjects, I will also practise the topic we are on at home to get higher grades. I will constantly put in the effort to achieve these grades and will always try to constantly improve on the subjects. I don't have a script because I'm gonna be casual with my teacher. I've been doing good in all my subjects and got merits and higher boom goodbye.

Camera angles and shots.

Me and Midas learnt about crane movements with camera angles and we had to fill out a camera shot glossary showing the different angles and shots. We also learnt about the importance of the high angle shot, which makes the person look powerless.
