Whakatauki meanings- Home room

                                                             Whakatauki

This week in home room the class has been working on a DLO to show a whakatauki (This play's a large role in Maori culture. They are used as a reference point in speeches and also as guidelines spoken to others day by day. We had to create some kind of DLO and I created a google drawing. We had to add images/image that related to the meaning of our whakatauki. 

Open steak sandwich's and Rice paper spring rolls

                                 Open steak sandwich's

 Ingredients: 

Steak, Bread roll, lettuce, tomato, cheese, sauce. 

How we made it: 

We cut every thing up (diced the vegetables) and sliced the steak we then we soaked the state in a dressing and cooked it. We then put it inside the bun and added the vegetables.

Rate: 

Personally I can't rate it as I didn't try it, but I don't like steak however it might have been really good for people who do eat steak.

Opinions: 

Once again I can't really give a proper opinion on this sandwich because I didn't try it :)

                    Rice paper spring rolls 

Ingredients: 

Rice paper, cucumber, carrot, red capsicum, noodles.

How we made it: 

We cut every thing up (diced the vegetables), next we soaked the rice paper in some warm water (only for like 10 seconds) we then added everything into the rice paper roll and folded it.

Rate: 

Personally I didn't wanna try it after everyone wasn't really liking it, it kinda just put me off even wanting to try it. However the rice paper didn't smell very and the texture of the rice paper was rubbery and disgusting. The noodles didn't feel like a very nice texture either.

Opinions: 

I feel like if I was to ever do this again I would add something more to it such as chicken, a different sauce, etc.

Business studies - Budgeting guide

                        Budgeting guide task 

This week in business studies we have the decision between a budgeting guide task or a screen castify explaining, I clearly chose the budgeting guide. I'v decided to present my work on a slide show, here it is: 

In conclusion this was a pretty easy task, but it was quite hard to not repeat myself because I didn't come up with much to write about. What do you think I could do better next time? 

Niuean and Tokelua language week - Music

 Creative writing - Te vaka

The task I chose for this language week was to Listen to one of the artists below,  then write a piece of creative writing describing what image the music brings to mind. Write at least 100 words. I have written at least 100 words.

The music I listened to was a part of the Tokelua culture. This music was uplifting and I had many ideas of what this reminded me of. The first thing it reminded me of was being somewhere tropical, like Fiji or Hawaii, bright, sunny, like as island or a really sunny beach. It also reminded me of this movie called high school musical, more specifically one part of the movie where they're dancing on the beach. I think this music has a very summery aesthetic to it, it makes me wanna go to the beach and dance. Something else it reminds me of is a shed or shop thing on the beach, kinda like the life guard tower. 

Leadership styles

                         Leadership styles

Business studies - promotion

 

We have a slide on a big slide show that has our product, company name, and prices on it. Then on the day, we have a big poster with our name and products we have also been telling lost of people about it.

We are aiming for teens to young adults, with the patterns they seem younger but the size of the face masks are for men, women, and teens. We are also selling really affordable products they range from $2-$4.

We are just trying to get the word out, telling people about it, having posters, making sure its something people are actually going to want.

The posters around the school are bright and colourful to attract the eye of our target audience ( young women/teens). The poster on the day will be at our table to make what we are doing obvious.

OUrs focuses more on Price and Promotion, we have to prove that our products are good quality, affordable and just making sure that they are worth it.
