Reflecting blog post

What have I learnt?
I learnt more about musicals and how the costumes, singing and dancing is important. We also learnt singing and making props and background.

How does this work show my learning?
It shows my learning because people would see.

What did I find challenging?
I find performing challenging since I was very nervous and don't have experience with performing, I also find that making a prop is very challenging since you need to be creating.

What would I do differently if I did this again?
I would add choreography to my performance and I would also make the background differently.

What did I enjoy?
I enjoyed making the background also practicing the song number, but performing was really hard.

What am I wondering?
I was wondering if it will look good if we added some choreography.

Critical Thinking Question

This is what we did in English today:

1. What are the strengths and weaknesses?

The strengths of living in Gloriavale is the people won’t judge you for who you are, they have similar clothes so they don’t feel like they’re different, and they all have jobs and rules that they all have to do. This is a strength because no one gets left out. The weaknesses of living in Gloriavale is they can’t just leave when they want to, they can’t have divorce, and the contact to the outside world is limited. This is a weakness because they have a limited idea on how the world works outside of their own world.

Home economics- nutrition labels

Which packaging do you like? Why?

The nutrition label. The legal requirements is tell the truth about the food and be legible. It also must have

What do the labels tell us?
It gives us information about the food.

What are the two first on the list of ingredients. Why are they named first?
Apricot and water, they were named first because that ingredients has a lot more than the other ingredients.
