Martariki

In Totara hub we have been learning about Matariki. Matariki is a Maori word for a cluster of stars that raise mid winter. when you celabrate Matariki lots of people have a meal and play Maori games like string games and others. 

For Matariki I did cooking because I like cooking and its lots of fun. Totara hub had lots of fun doing Matariki I cant wait for next year. 

Something I learnt was all the different ways that I can celebrate matariki. Something I learnt about cooking was how to make, roll and fri the fri bread.

I am proud of using my manging distaction mucels to do my best
Something that challenged me was grating the cheese and carrots because it was hard to grate it when it got small.

Mould science.

Have you ever seen disgusting mould? Mould can grow in the bathroom shower or even worse on your food. Did you know that some moulds are good like lemon mould is one of the moulds that’s  good for you.  If you you would like to grow mould

If you want to do a fair experiment to grow mould follow my instructions .

Equipment you need:

• 3 Plastic containers with lids. /  Big zip lock bag.
• 3 Labels.
• 3 Samples of cheese, bread or a mandarin. That are the same. So you can only pick one. / NO MEAT OF FISH.
• 1 Black marker.
• Somewhere safe to store them.
• Some water to wet the sample.

Steps:   

For Testing Moisture.                                                   

1. First make sure you have everything.

2. Then use the marker to write on the labels, on one write wet sample, then on another write dry , on the last one write moist.

3. Completely wet one of the samples. Place the wet sample in the container or zip lock bag and push lid on then put the label on top. Next dip your hand into the water and sprinkle the water over the moist sample and put into the container and place the label on the container's lid , Then put the lid on. On the last one just put the dry sample in the container and place the label on top.

4. Store in a safe place.

5. Watch the mould grow over the days.

I have put an effort to into writing this. I hope you will try this your self, because it's fun to do and to see if mould grows.

Something that I found challenging was using the feedback to make changes.
