Slowly he crawled out of bed. walking through the hallway he could feel something was not right he could usually hear his little brothers crying and screaming but George couldn't hear them and His mum would have been burning something by now.

He got to the lounge but to his surprise no one was home wondering who whispered. George was frightened knowing that someone whispered to him. As he was about to sit down he just remembered they might be at the supermarket he thought again but why would they leave me here.

The day went bye as Georges family did not come he was now very worried. He thought to himself they do sleep for the whole day during the holiday.


He hears another noise coming from his room it whispers “wake up” he rushes to his room where he stumbles upon his alarm it says “wake up” repeatedly george must of forgot to change his alarm times.. The rest of the family were sleeping for the whole day

Rapunzel Twist

:Once upon a time, there was a King and a Queen who lived in a mansion far far in GI. One day the queen was ill and there was no cure treatment. A few days had passed by when the guards found a mysterious box full of panadol tablets. It was a treatment to help the Queen and her baby to survive.

“It’s a GIRL” shouted the King as tears rushed down his cheeks. She had very fine blonde hair. They named her Rapunzel. A year passed by, the baby started getting neglected. One night an evil and old bald witch had seen the cute baby sleeping. She broke the window, then snatched the baby right out of the cot. She took the baby and raised her as her own.

As years went by, Rapunzel grew older and became a teenager. The witch locked her up in a tall sky-tower. The witch made money off of the magical hair of rapunzel and the witch became rich and famous.

Meanwhile at the mansion the queen and king finally cared about Rapunzel. They updated a status on facebook and sent messages to all the royal family and the village . Being rewarded money to who could find and return Rapunzel alive. Everyone rounded up a group to find Rapunzel.

There is a charming prince named Mando who wanted to find Rapunzel by himself. He found the Sky Tower and Shouted “Rapunzel Rapunzel, are you there?” Rapunzel didn’t reply. He decided to go and find her. But the witch had a wicked plan. She had hidden in the closet and waited for Mando to come in.

Entering the room, I see nothing but darkness, all I could hear was the mumble of someone who had been taped across the mouth. It was Rapunzel, I went to follow the sound of her voice so I can untie her, when the lights flashed on. Popping out of the closet, unexpectedly the witch came out and tied him up.

“Help Help” cried Rapunzel. Begging for help the witch walked up to rapunzel wanting to give her a beating of a lifetime. Luckily, Mando had a knife on him. He had cut loose and freed Rapunzel.

They managed to escape but the witch had freed her hounds.

Running for their lives, Rapunzel tripped over the log. Looks to be that she had broken her leg. But the prince  remembered he had swiss army knife, as he saw the witch coming closer to hurt her. he pulled his knife”Swish” He cut Rapunzels hair,the witch slowly turned into dust and they lived happily ever after THE END.

Black Hat - Which things didn't I like. Some of the editing was  not working. also distractions were really hard to work with.

Green Hat - What was something interesting about this week was the topic for this trailer because it was about a karate kid. and doing a trailer instead of a movie.

White Hat - What did I learn I learnt how to split clips and do animations better. Doing big titles for the trailer.

Blue Hat - What can I do better next time. Use my time wisely so we can finish on time.

Mandos Journey

Climbing and stretching Mando gripped his hand to the next rock. He held on tightly to the unstable cliff. Lucky to survive, he anxiously laid two hands on the top of the cliff and heaved himself up. Feeling tired and relieved he proceeded to the Dojo. “Finally” he shouted.


Walking tiredly to the Dojo he approached the door. He felt anxious and nervous, but was also curious to see if he was going to get in or not. Filled with fear, the door opened with the sensei coming out. Mando bowed down to him.


Looking at Mando, the sensei unexpectedly pointed to his right as he slammed the door angrily. Mando slumped his body as he was walking away as he thought of something to do. He started meditating day n night as it became brighter. Peeking his one eye out he noticed that at the door was the sensi pointing to his right.


Turning around with terrier in his eyes he clinched his fist and karate kick the door. With the Sensei at the door Mando bowed to challenge him at a fight. Once again Sensei pointed to the right. Mando turning his head he noticed the sign “Please use side entrance”. Looking so confused Mando realized how much time he wasted.

Making Ice Cream

Can Room 15 make ice cream using 3% fat milk?


Equipment + Ingredients

Milk

Cup

Salt

1 tbs

Sugar

2 sealed Lunch bags

Towel

spoon

Ice

Vanilla essence


Methodology

1.First you get two lunch bags one has to be small

2.Once you have done that pour 1/2 of milk into the small bag and add 1 spoon of sugar

3.Then put in some 1/2 tbs of vanilla essence in your small bag

4.You then put 4 cups of crushed Ice into the big bag and put 1 tbs of salt with the Ice

5.After all of that release the air out of the both bags and seal it back together and put the small bag of milk into the big bag and seal back and start shaking the two bags which will make Ice cream.


Outcome

The Outcome of my Ice Cream was not so great because my one was like a soup instead of thick solid stuff. My result was so good as others were like normal Ice cream. I think that now I could do better.


Further Questions or Research to Do.

Further questions I wonder how salt melts down the ice much quicker?

Also how did it work by shaking the bag of Ice with the cream?And how did this milk become Ice cream?
What would it taste like with no flavour?

The Heart Attack Grill

I think that Jon Basso should be allowed to operate a Heart Attack Grill restaurant in NZ G.I.

My partner and I think that people who are going to the Heart Attack Grill, should make better decisions on eating. It has warning signs about unhealthy food and it can make you die and also Jon Basso said it “this food can kill you but if you want it I will give it to you.”

I know that Jon Basso has just as much rights as anybody else to run a legal business, he is not purposefully hurting anybody. In my opinion, he is trying to run his business to make money, and to help his family. People need to learn to use their money wisely.

We feel the community should see what this restaurant can do to people. He should not sell these giant burgers it has a lot of lard, which is animal fat and this can make you super morbidly obese.

Overall THAG should open because they could change G.I because the community can see how many people can die from this restaurant.

Making Bread With Mama King

What a surprise this morning as our teacher mother (Mama King) came to our school to make bread with us. The bread was very delicious, First she taught us how to do it then we had a try. Some of the bread doughs did not work out properly. Mama King was a bread maker.

We continued to make our bread as soon as Mama King commanded "leave the mix for 15 minutes"! Cursorily waiting to see if our bread would rise. 15 minutes had passed as my partner and I stared at our bowl it all went wrong the mix didn't rise Oh NO!!

Thank you very much to Mama King for the tasty bread with butter. I think I have learnt how to bake bread now. thank you very much!
