Food

In food recently we have been doing practicals

so far we have done

Scones, Sushi, Pizza and Nz fish and chips


For the pizza practical we made the base out of Greek yoghurt and it tasted good I have never made a pizza base out of greek yoghurt and then we got to put our own toppings onto the pizza and then we put it in the oven to cook

For the fish and chips, we got one piece of fish and we made the coating to go on top of the fish and to make the chips we got a potato and chopped it into even-sized pieces and then we put them into the oven for a bit until they were cooked enough and till they were crisped and golden coloured

Cave Drawings

My cave drawing has a minion which he came from a cave it is important to me because the minions are funny and weird and because I enjoy the movie with my family and friends. My design relates to the traditional art technique because he is dressed up like a cave person and cave people were old and had no fancy or casual clothes to wear there wore animal skin and fur.

The movie minions is about these little yellow midgets who speak in their own language and they explore the world to find food and they live with this person called Gru. Gru is the boss of the minions.

Children of blood and bone chapter

Inan’s amber eyes trap me in the truth of his betrayal, but it isn’t the gaze I
know. He’s a stranger. A soldier. The shell of the little prince.
Note: It is interesting to think about how Zélie became an empty “shell” after Saran
tortured her. After talking with Saran, Inan became a shell, also.
Think back to when Inan said they had no choice but to kill the maji.
Zélie said, “There’s always a choice.”

A message I can take from this is that king Saran tortured Zelie and left Zelie alone and it had broken her inside of her and her brain was shattered which means that when she sees king Saran again she will feel scared and weaker and can't stand up to him.

Children of blood and bone Chapter 74

Note: This time you have not been provided a quote from the story. This is an
explanation.
King Saran firmly believes in duty over self. Peace between Maji and kosidán
failed in the past, so he does not want to try again.
Inan believes he must make a similar choice between his country and his
heart. He makes the same choice as his father, even though the majacite
sword blisters his own skin (this is symbolism). Inan gives up everything to be
everything his Father wants.
This could be compared to / A message I take from this scene is
Think back to what Zuko said about the honor. Where does it come from?

The message I can take from the paragraph is that Inan wants to fight for his country and not for his girlfriend Zelie and he has chose between his heart or country and he has chosen the country

Are Students addicted to their cellphones

Some students are addicted to their phones because they want to check their social media or they have to check their social media from there friends or family. Also, they want to play games hours on end and never stop until they get bored or they have to go out with their family also, smartphone use could increase the amount of time it takes to fall asleep. The light emitted from the cell phone may activate the brain.

Children of blood and bone Chapter 66

Father stands in his night robes, scanning a faded map. No sign of hatred. Not
even a hint of disgust.
For him, carving MAGGOT into a girl’s back is just another day’s work.
…
In that instant, it hits me: Zulaikha’s death. Zélie’s screams. They don’t mean a
thing to him. Because they’re maji, they’re nothing.

The message I can take from this  is that Zelie had the word maggot carved into her back and now she is going to be used in a bad way to get the scroll for a man and then he wants her to destroy the scroll and then once she has destroyed it she will die and she will have a parade around the town.

I think that this is bad because Zelie is being used in a bad way and she did not get to say what she wanted to do or if she wanted the word maggot carved into her

Children of blood and bone Chapter 63

“You know what intrigues me about your kind? You always start in the middle
of the story. As if my father didn’t fight for your rights. As if you maggots didn’t
burn my family alive.”
“You can’t enslave an entire people for the rebellion of a few.”
Saran bares his teeth. “You can do whatever you want when you’re the king.”

The message I can take from this scene is that people are different and they act there own way they choose to. Also when people are king or queen they can rule the world and  be the boss of everything and they can kill anyone that they choose to.

Technology

Definition of technology

The definition of technology is science or knowledge put into practical use to solve problems or invent useful tools to help people 


My slides are about old day technology and new technology and how have they improved in the years days or even months

Art techniques 2019

In art, we have been learning about different techniques and today we had to go on our teacher's site and pick a picture to paint.

The picture I choose was aboriginal dots painting and I thought it was cool.

My blog post is not finished but my teacher made me post it 

Children of blood and bone chapter 61

Tears sear my vision, falling fast down my face. A Healer. A child.
Yet her last moments are stained with hate.

A message I can take from this scene is that Zelie is describing her own emotions about her dying friend who was only 13 years old in front of her and her moments were stained with hate because she hates everyone who killed her.

Children of blood and bone chapter 41

Looking at Zélie, I finally have the answer to the question I was too afraid to
ask. I cannot be like Father.
I will not be that type of king.
I let go of her wrists, but inside I let go of so much more. Father’s tactics. His
Orïsha. Everything I now realize I don’t want to be.
My duty has always been to my kingdom, but it must be for a better Orïsha. A
new Orïsha.
A land in which a prince and a maji could coexist. A land where even Zélie and
I could be a “we.”
If I am to truly fulfill my duty to my kingdom, that is the Orïsha I must lead.

Worlds strongest magnet

‘Little big coil’ breaks the record for the world’s strongest magnet

In Science today I was researching about the world’s strongest magnet, called little big coil 3 

Researchers at the US MagLab have built the strongest magnet on Earth, which they nicknamed little big coil (LBC).

With a magnetic flux density of 45.5 Tesla, it is 9000 times more powerful than a typical fridge magnet and almost half as strong as a chemical bond-distorting magnetic white dwarf star. Unlike its giant 45T predecessor – which held the record for almost two decades – the new setup is smaller and uses much less power.

Children of Blood and bone chapter 59

“How will I coming back to Lagos solve any of that?” I ask. “As we speak,
your father calls for my head!”
“My father’s scared.” Inan shakes his head. “He’s misguided, but his fear is
justified. All the monarchy’s ever seen is the destruction maji can bring.
They’ve never experienced anything like this.” He gestures to the camp, faces
alight with so much hope his smile practically glows in the darkness. “Zulaikha
created this in one moon, and there are already more diviners in Lagos than
anywhere else in Orïsha. Just imagine what we could accomplish with the
resources of the monarchy behind us.”

A message I can take from this scene is that later on in the book that there will be no diviners or majis left and Inan is a bit hopeful because of what he is doing to other people and I think that it is not a good idea because he could do something wrong.

Children of blood and bone chapter 52

“I’ll prove myself to you, to all of you,” Inan declares. “You’re on the right side
of this. My only desire is to stand there as well.”
“Good.” I lean forward to hug him, holding on to his promise.
But when his hands wrap around my back, all I can think of are how his fingers
are resting just above my scars.

A message take from this scene is that Inan wants people to trust him and not go against him.

Do you trust Inan does he deserve another chance

I don't trust Inan because he might go and kill everyone and he does not deserve another chance because of what he might do

Do people in real life deserve another chance yes because they could change their behaviour from bad to good?

Children of blood and bone chapter 49

Strike, Amari.
Father’s voice rings in my head, but it’s not his strength I need.
Be brave, Amari. Binta soothes instead.
Be the Lionaire.

This can be compared to different strengths because people have a lot of different strengths than other people and one strength could be fighting for what is right.

The power of one

This is my term 2 assessment on The Power of One film

In the Power of One film director  John Advilsen and the scene, we are talking about is ‘Going for a Run’ with P.K and Gideon Duma (1:29). Some of the film techniques used in the scene are pan, long shot, non-diegetic sounds, and facial expressions. These film techniques help the audience show that they mixed the black and whites people and they do not get on well with each other except P.K and Gideon Duma because they are good boxing friends and partners.

In the scene going for a run, the director uses a tracking shot on P.K and Gideon Duma and it shows the line of black people waiting for the toilet 

 On the way to the bus station, they run pass a huge line for the toilet. P.K asks Gideon duma why is there a long line and Gideon duma replies the government only supplies only one toilet for every 200 of us.

The director did this to show the audience how long the line for the toilet is. And how many people are waiting in line?

This helps us understand that P.K wants to know what the huge line is for and why only one toilet for every 200 people. This is where the tracking shot is used because they are running and the camera is moving backward. and shows the long line and shows apartied by the difference between the black and whites. 

This aspect can be compared to Maria’s house because the black people live in little shelters and maria and her family live in a big fancy mansion with 2 or more toilets. We know this because they have different toilets because they have servants and they have to use their toilets.

What am I proud of?

Something I am proud of is I wrote something down for the assessment. Also, I think I am working at the level of year 10 English.

Something I can do next time to improve could describe my examples using more details and I could make links to the wider world or experience.


One thing I enjoyed learning about film was that all country don't have one toilet for every 200 people and only 2% of people in Africa can go to school and learn and they have to live in tiny shelters made out of sheets of metal and wood and other people live in big warm fancy houses.

One thing I found challenging about learning about the film was understanding the start of the film

One thing I learned that I will use the next time I write an essay is to use paragraphs and full sentences.

Children of blood and bone chapter 39

My handshakes. The moment to kill still hangs between us. Yet I can’t bring myself to move.
Not when all I see is the scared and broken girl.
It’s like seeing her for the first time: the human behind the maji. Fear embedded in the pain. A tragedy caused in Father’s name.
Father…
The truth sears, a bitter liquor burning down my throat.
Zélie’s memories don’t hold the villains Father always warned of. Only families, he tore apart.


This can be compared to tragedies in real life because they are really bad and people get really hurt and have to go to the hospital to get fixed up. Also, people could die and their family would cry and be sad.


My prediction to the story is that Zelie and Inan are going to rescue Zane and Amari from the badies and there going to rescue them by splitting apart and going there own ways because they won't get captured.
