End of term food blog

This term we have been looking at a cultural unit
So far I have learnt that food comes from different places and people like different things
I know I have learnt this because I have researched it and been taught about it
Practicals we have made this term are Scones from Britan, Sushi from Japan, Cookies from New Zealand, Chicken pad thai from Thailand but they have made it to NZ people from those countries or from people who know how to make it. Skills I have learnt from the practicals are to not put your finger under a fruit or vegetable when you are cutting it up into pieces and I will use these in the future by using them in future practicals in my group working with other people in my group has been ok and other times we have had to restart the practical and follow the instructions carefully and slowly.

Essay pre planning



My key event is the burning of Ilorin when  King Saran sent Inan to the village and burn it down to the ground and have nothing there. My important character is going to be Zelie because she changed her ways from being soft to hard and calm to angry and struggling to go to find money and then she became a warrior by becoming strong. deadly, hateful which sets her up for fighting her life.
