Crafty Kids

Cooking!
Every Wednesday we have Tech. We switch around the three classes, woodwork, sewing and cooking. It was the year six's final session at cooking. We made Jelly Slice! It was really fun making it! We crushed vanilla flavoured biscuits into crumbs, added melted butter, mixed condensed milk with lemon juice, hot water and gelatine. Then made the jelly, put all the layers into the tin and put in the fridge.

French Knitting!
My friends and I have been doing French knitting at school with one of our teachers. It is incredibly easy and it is so exciting once it starts coming out the bottom of the knitting tube! You can make a spiral with it and turn it into a mat OR you can make a little bracelet!

A Walk On The Farm

Making Music Using Sound Trap

I made this delightful song on Soundtrap. I chose these cows because I thought I could make some good music to match the image. My song and picture is named the... DJ Triplets! These cows kind of looked like mates or triplets. I even named them, from the right, Blackie, Beau and Buck. In Soundtrap we could look through all types of music. Mine is Pop Rock. You can even play different piano keys.

5 Reasons why...

SPRING IS THE BEST SEASON!!!
We have been focusing on persuasive writing. I've made made this poster about Spring, trying to convince my audience that Spring is definitely the best season. Do you agree with me? Have I persuaded you?

Tech-Cooking

On Wednesday, the year 6's started cooking again. This time we made fluffy banana choc chip pancakes. Our skill focus was separating egg yolks from egg whites and flipping our pancakes in the air!!! It was amazing and fun, I kept wanting to do it over and over again. We sifted the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl, then, added the choc chips. Next, we separated the egg. We whizzed the egg whites up until it was all fluffy and white. Then mixed mashed banana, egg yolks, vanilla essence and lemon juice then added it. We added the fluffy egg white too.
Here is a video of me flipping my pancakes:

Yeast Experiment GIF

Yesterday we did a yeast experiment. We decided to make a GIF for it. We used 51 degree water, 39 degree water, 32 degree water and 18 degree water. We used water, yeast and sugar. Hope you like it!

Making A Spore Print

Today, my teacher gave us four white mushrooms and one brown mushroom. We put the brown mushroom on white paper and the white mushrooms on black paper. We left it for one day. My one is the bottom right. The spores drop from the mushroom's gills. That is how more mushrooms grow. They are not a plant, they have their own family. We have to wash our hands well after touching the mushrooms. The brown mushroom didn't work so well as the white mushrooms. Maybe you could try finding a mushroom or two and leaving it on a piece of paper for a little while. Make sure the mushroom isn't directly in the sun or otherwise it might kill the spores.
