In room 10 I have been playing this game to help me with my timetables .  This game was really helpful because I have been answering timetable questions . In this game I had to click on the fish that suits the answer and then the boy would catch the fish and put it in the bucket.   This game really helped me so it could help other people too .

Making Ice-cream in bags


Making ice-cream in bags


On the 27th of March  room 9 and 10 had the chance to make ice-cream in the hall.  I knew it is going to be an excellent experience for all of us.

Straight after the lunch bell room 10 were heading off to the hall to make some ice-cream . We got into the hall and started thinking about what kind of flavour we were going to choose . Finally it was time to make ice-cream .

First we had to write our names on a zip lock bag or a sandwich bag.  We put in our bags one tablespoon of sugar,  then choose from oreo crumbs, chocolate chip, lollies and nuts to add a bit of flavour into our ice cream  then ½ a cup of milk was added last.  We gave our bags a good shake to mix all the ingredients.

Next we made sure our bags are tightly closed then we put them 10 of these small bags into a big bag with ice cubes and salt. We then took turns in shaking the big bag non stop for about 5 - 8 minutes.  After that we took out our small bags and our ice cream is ready.  

At the end I thought those ice-creams that we made was really good and I hope we could make some during this year .
