      BLOGGING SCIENCE STYLE….

 

Your last day for term you lucky things..think of me correcting all your reports tomorrow!

Today you have the honour of teaching Mrs Lochery how to use the blogs….via ’science’ on the blog site.

The first thing you have to do is go to this site: 

http://www.sciencenewsforkids.org/

 You are from this site to find an article and read it. Once you have read it you are to create a PAGE on your blog site highlighting the main points of the article and then in one or two sentences give an outline of the article. The title of your page is to be the title of your article. Mrs Lochery will then be making a guest appearance to your blog page and reading what you have written.

Have a great holiday guys and eat lots of choccy, except you Lachie, you can eat lots of lollies…lol.

See you in term 4 when you are half way to being a year 8 and 3 weeks off going to the snow..

                   CHOCOLATE BISCUIT WEEK…..MMMMMMMMM

Well this is the week we are baking with the year 12’s. As you have found out with the milo recipe there is an art to writing a recipe. You do need a bit of an introduction, a list of the utensils and ingredients you need and then a step by step set of instructions as to what to do, and then an end sentence as to what to do with it.

You will also have noticed that recipes have a whole metalanguage of their own: tbls, tsp, grams, cups, lbs….you will have to learn a lot of them for next term.

Your task today is to produce a recipe for one of your favourite foods, and it must be something you have to make and have a recipe for, not a lazy bowl of ice-cream!

Google search a recipe and then write up on a page your recipe using all the correct metalanguage and layout. Title your page what your recipe is called, eg. lasagna, fried chicken…

At the end I want you to send me a comment telling me that you are finished and what your recipe is.

Scotty
