Technology in WW1

Is technology good or bad? Well I think that it can be good for all of us if we use it right. Technology is all around us, we use it in our homes, out in the open world, and other places. When using computers we have the power to search, play and more searching. You can easily go wrong on the computer, if we use it wrong we might face the consequences.

In our senior block our principle Mr Burt talked to us about the technology used in WW1. He teaches us about how Britain invents new weaponry, and that they would be indestructible from the enemy, But soon the enemy would make a better and bigger version of there one.

This would tell me why technology is very important to most of us, but sometimes not good to other people.

First World War Masscots

I have been learning WW1 Mascots and how they were used.

WW1 Timeline

In one of our Zeal Zone groups, Miss Moala talks to us about the timeline's about what happened in WW1. We were all given a timeline, which we grab information from, and put it into a way which we can show. The timeline we had study was October 16th 1914.

Values

                                                  VALUES

This is important to me because I have to respect people around me, when i’m walking around the community, at home, During school and everywhere else I go. I think that respect is one important value to anyone because we listen to what someone says, we take in on what someone has to say and help them if they need help. The person I like to respect mostly is my mum, she was the one who helped me with making my lunch and home work.

Polyfest

Yesterday was an exciting day, because team 5 took a trip to Polyfest in Manaku. There were a a lot of schools who came. When we entered in we sat down in front of some ASB crew. Suddenly out of no where our school and the other schools saw camera men crowed someone. As they got closer to us we could see a person with a black jacket.

It was John Key! I'm sure some people were still labor fans, so they wouldn't of liked seeing John Key. John Key gave a quick speech and then he got interviewed by ASB crews and others aswell. We set out to go to our activities to learn new things. My favorite thing was visiting the AUT presentation. They showed us and talked to us about the making of games and 3D printing.

First off they showed us some metal made form the 3D metal printer. Also not to mention a normal 3D printer that could do a brilliant job at making material and also detailed 3D products. That was the best thing that I liked. But for there games they seemed to take it to the next level by making the person in the game. These headsets were called Oculus Rift.

It was mainly those things he told us. It actually taught me a lot about what skills we needed to make it into a tech place and how we get them. That was the reason why I liked that Activity. 

Zeal Zone 2

For the second time of Zeal Zone we made Crispy Slices. For this we had to get rice bubbles and mini marshmallows and 125G of butter. They had to be set on our tables like the last one we did. Then the paper had to be spread out on the table so we could put the ingredients on it. After we were all set to go we got started. 

First thing you had to do was melt the butter in the pan. Second thing that you had to do was add marshmallows, then mix around until it melts. Remove form heat when done. Next pour the ricees in a black tray to fill it up. Lastly pour the melted marshmallows and butter into the black tray of ricees and mix. Then you press into dish with grease proof paper in another tray.

Then we cut it up into pieces and then eat it. It is tasty and delicious for treats. But I just ate straight away. I liked making the crispy slices.
