FATHER"S DAY

 


Kia Ora koutou,
Happy father's day to every special man in the world, we appreciate you.  Also the grandfathers,uncles and any male.

MAKING DONUTS !!!

Talofa lava and bula vinaka, 
freezing temperature, craving for something hot. steamy and delicious.
   DONUTS!
They were fried and made in no time.
They tasted delicious when I made a nice glaze for it. 
Here is what I did

8 cups of plain flour, plus 2 cups extra for kneading
3 cups of warm water
2 1/2 tablespoons of active dry yeast (or 3 sachets)
1 cup of warm milk
2 cups of sugar
1/3 cup of oil (or melted butter)
3 eggs


I firstly whisked the yeast & warm water together in a medium bowl, set aside for 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, I gently combined 8 cups of flour with the sugar, make a well.
I then whisked milk, oil & eggs into yeast mixture then pour into the flour/sugar bowl. Using my left hand I mixed the ingredients together, until the dough is smooth. "The mixture will be quite sticky"  is what I thought when I made it and my theory was correct. I Covered & left it to rise until it doubled in size ( 1-1 ½ hours).
I transfer the dough onto floured bench, to knead the dough, adding flour as I went  until the dough began  to have had sufficient flour added that it is less sticky, and more manageable. Then I broke  off 40 chunks of dough to make each doughnut. I kneaded each dough into a ball & set aside.
Heat oil in a large pot. I had to test oil with a small piece of dough (should rise & brown lightly within seconds).

To make the donuts I , pierced a hole in the middle of the dough with my finger, then slightly stretched it out and span it around your finger to enlarge the hole to about 3 cm, then carefully lower the donuts into the hot oil, turning the donuts as you go. Fry for about 3 minutes or until golden brown & cooked through. Transfer onto a rack to drain and cool.

COVID - 19 AND DELTA VARIANT UPDATE:


Over 400 cases in NZ      WHAT !!!!! 

Mathex - Gapminder World View Upgrader

Malo leilei everyone, today I played a series of  Gapminder.  Gapminder is an educational app that coaches and educates students like me and people about global warming. I have learnt a lot with my sister all because of Mrs Allan We appreciate her supporting all of the senior school. All the credit goes to her. I have been learning so much algebra and different types of maths everyday.
I learnt an immense amount of maths today on Gapminder. I did the UN test and got 18 out of 18 on my first go But it took some time to try and access the answer in my brain. I was talking all about how much was the percentage and correct answer from the question above. To head to Gapminder press on the link here https://upgrader.gapminder.org/t/sdg-world-un-goals/ and press the link on it.
Try it Out!!!

Lock Down Writing

Kia Ora koutou katoa, today I wrote about my theory about how Delta Variant started and how we try to stop it. Hope you enjoy this piece of writing!!!

Covid - 19, Delta Variant, What is the next one?
This continuous curse, Our people asking for an explanation about everything, it is all happening in accelerating time.  What is going to happen . . .
I ‘m afraid I think I understand why this has happened.
My  theory is that as we all know in our late 2020 covid - 19 struck like lightning to us  and it felt like a horrific nightmare. People losing their jobs . Luckily ,it ended after a long period of time. After all of it, everyone forgot to be cautious because even though the cases came down, that deadly disease was still out there but we did n't care . We thought we would never come across it again. Everyone started touching a lot of surfaces and gaining germs. That is how we created the delta Variant isn't it?!
107 cases still in contact. If I had to take the covid-19 vaccine I would be scared of going to the place's that require The Vaccines. we could all use A 2nd Chance for anything right but we should all  choose to erase the past of when we didn't care and do the  and do the exact opposite which is doing the right thing. The government is aware of what is creating this disease but hopefully in lock down the people will be safe. 
Stay home to be safe!!!

Lock down FUN!!!


 Malo leilei everyone, 

"Stay at home,  Be patient for when we find a solution to this disease" is all I hear. Firstly I want to say thank you for all the supporters in medical wise and most people of New Zealand that are staying in their own space because of this disease. Secondly, While I was at home I took the time and opportunity took something delicious and will suit a great meal. FETTUCCINE!!!!!!!

Yes, I took almost an hour and included effort into trying to make fettuccine for the fifth time. I mean after five times of making it, it will be easy right?

It was not  easy at all,but I tried my best in the end it was a success and my parents approved at it. I felt proud of myself, until . . . my sister criticized it and said I cooked more earlier than you.

Try it out yourself!

Remember to be safe and stay at home!

Ingredients for Fettuccine Recipe :

Kosher salt

1 lb. fettuccine

1/2 c. heavy cream

1/2 c. (1 stick) butter

1/2 c. freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for sprinkling

Freshly ground black pepper

I AM... - A Poem

I am  determined to be the best me possible and protective of my family. 
I  wonder If I can reach my goal.
I hear every student voice, especially if they need help.
I want to become a successful surgeon that helps everyone in need of my help.
I am determined and protective

I actually try to become like my sister, a leader, 
I feel like I could be better.
I am anxious about my education almost everyday.
I cry when I feel like I am not being heard, potentially when I was doing the poetry recital when I was doing the poem, I did it for black people and people who want to give up. Technically, I did it for me not room 4.
I am determined and protective.
I understand my parents.
I say that I will always try to be behaved and I will keep that promise.
I dream that I will be great in the future
I hope it becomes true.
I am determined, protective and many more!!!





Task Description:
We were given the task to do a simple poem talking about ourselves hope you enjoy!!!

Story About Eid

 What is happening in the world? 

Well a variety of things happen everywhere and there are some more serious than others but today I will be talking about something more cheerful happening  for Muslims. Hundreds of thousands of Muslim people celebrating a celebration called   Eid AL-Fitr .The definition of it is very cheerful,  Eid AL-Fitr means  ‘festival of the breaking of the fast’. It is celebrated because it is the end of Ramadan. Ramadan is when Muslim people ended their fasting of not eating for one month. It is for spiritual reflection, prayer and doing good deeds.Ramadan it is for reflection of your spiritual side  and for doing good deeds in the community or something that can make a good improvement in the world. As because I grew up learning from a religion that is  general to Muslims to me it is a very cheerful celebration. 

What,where,when,how,why.

Task Description:
Room 4 had to write about one of the special events that are happening worldwide. My challenge was to create an informative piece of writing. HOPE you ENJOY!!!
