Elementia chronicals!

Technicraft!

Today at technicraft, In cooking class, we were baking loaves, me and my partner Cheska made banana loaf well the rest made different ones, like coconut and cheese.
First we sifted flour, baking soda, salt. Then put in ½ a cup of sugar. Next in another bowl we beat eggs, then pour in mashed banana and milk.

After that we pour in our mixture of egg, banana, and milk into the other bowl.
Then mixed it thoroughly. After mixing it, we put the mixture in a loaf bowl, then put in the oven. Baked at 220 degrees celcius for 20 minutes. The result was beautiful

We then put half of the loaf in our boxes. We then had to write another brief. After we did our brief we did a crossword. The crossword was hard and I didn't finish it in time because as soon as I was on the 5th word it was time to go.

I had fun at technicraft, I hope it never loses this value.

Lent!

Cyber future!

Water worries!

We are learning to find and discuss main ideas in what we read and to plan our ideas before we write to better inform our reader audienceImage result for hoover dam


Water worries:
  • To persuade to treat river better
  • Stop causing pollution
  • To change people who throw rubbish in the river.

Can we make water?

Explanation



One of the author's reasons to make this article is to show information on the pollution of rivers so it can persuade people to not throw there waste in the river. This is because rivers lead to either oceans or other rivers, and the rubbish could pollute the entire water supply of each country.


Another aspect of what this article's purpose, is that the article could be warning us to save water because it says in the story that every drop counts and the pictures I see people queuing for water. That made me think it was a message for saving water because other people have problems with there water and water is precious to us, so that is another purpose for this article.


Then there is a third purpose, to change or persuade  people who throw their waste into the river on their daily walks, this is another purpose because it shows many picture and has convincing writing that can change people. For example: a random person was reading that exact article and thought for a moment. He or she realizes that they are helping with polluting the water supply of the whole world and they quickly change.


In conclusion three of these aspects of purpose from the article could possibly be the main reason for this article, but we don't really know, it surely is a mystery.
