Today at food tech we made homemade beef burgers. Our burger was made up of vegetables and meat. The meat was ham and mince beef patties and the veges were onions, tomatoes and lettuce. And the seasonings were herbs salt & pepper. It took us about 25 minutes to prep and make our beef burgers. The outcome was delicious and mouth watering!! Todays food tech was enjoyable.🍔
Yesterday Wednesday the senior block from Ruapotaka School went to Tamaki College for tech (technicraft). For technicraft there are 4 stations with different projects for example wood craft, food craft😋 and drawing craft. There are also 4 different teachers who are Mr Grundy, Mr Pineda and Ms Tuipiulotu. The station im at, at the moment is wood craft. I enjoy making different things. My project right now is making a stained glass blue clear crystal diamond🔷. There are steps to making this. The steps are Cut,Grind,Foil,buff and tin. I really can't wait till my project is finish.
Here is an example picture of how my stained glass will look like.
Last week on Wednesday Rm 11 and 12 had to combine classes while half of room 11 and room 12 went to softball trials with Mr Reid. While they were gone we did some work on narratives. After working on narratives we got ready to go Technic-craft.
When we arrived to Tamaki College I had to lead the year 7's to Mr Grundy's workshop. When we arrived to his work shop we started on our workbook, after completing our work book we started on our mold.
We had to sketch our picture we wanted on the mold then had to use this wood cutter machine to cut of round our sketching. After cutting we had a look at some pendants some other students made.
When it was 1:00 Mr Grundy shouted times up so I led the year 7's to the bus. It was so cool seeing the year 8's cooking. I'm looking forward to next week because we are starting filling our mold with melted pewter.
This is the pendant I will be making
