Making Bread

Bread is made from different ingredients. These ingredients are sugar, milk, butter, olive oil, rapid yeast, salt ,flour and milk.

First, combine the flour, yeast and sugar in a large bowl. Then stir in salt and then make a well in the centre and put warm milk and butter.

Then, stir the mixture until made into dough.

Next, use your hands to bring the dough together in the bowl. Soon after that turn the dough onto a light surface and knead it until the dough is smooth and elastic.

After that, brush a large bowl with olive oil to grease. Then place the dough into the bowl and cover it with a damp tea towel and set it aside in a warm, draught-free place to settle for 45 minutes - 1 hour or until the dough has double sized.

Then, knead the centre of the dough with your fist. After that turn the dough onto a lightly floured place and then knead for two minutes or until the dough is elastic and has turned to it’s original size. Once it has turned to its original size, it is ready to bake.

Next, put the dough into a loaf pan and place it into a preheated 200 °C oven for about 35 minutes. When the bread is fully baked , it will sound “hollow” when it is  tapped with the finger. It will easily fall out of the loaf pan. It is now time to set the loaf of bread aside to cool down.

The yummy loaf of bread is now ready to share with your family.

My Week-End

My Week-End

Last weekend I woke up and went into my room and I just sat in my room playing games like Saints row 4(A Shooter), Grand Theft Auto 5(A Shooter) and Crysis 3(A Shooter) . Then I played on my computer and just looked at video’s for about an hour. After a while my nephew called me on Skype and we played Minecraft (a popular building game) for about 6 hours.

After that we switched games and we played Grand Theft Auto 5 online together. We had just got new clothes, repaired our cars, flew planes and killed each other. After all of that my nephew and I got tired so we both went to sleep.

On Sunday, I woke up all messy and went to my computer to see if my nephew was online so we could play, but sadly he wasn’t on so I just watched video’s while I was waiting for him for about 3 hours. Finally my nephew got online so I called him on Skype and I played with him on Gta 5 Online and Minecraft for most of the day.

Next he logged off his computer so I went to play on my trampoline and I did some back-flips. Once I got bored I laid down for about 1 minute before I had to go and have dinner. After that I went to my small bed and watched  TV for about 2 hours.  Then fell into a nice deep sleep.   

My Netbook Reflection

Hi, My name is Levi.R, I am a year 5 student at Glenbrae School and I am in Room 9. My Teacher is Mr. D. Nath. This year was an exciting and fantastic experience for me because I started using a Chromebook and playing with my friends.

It was an amazing and fascinating year using the new technology instead of using books to write in, but it took me some time to really start using the next generation tech effectively for work and discovering new things. There are so many things to learn about the next generation tech and tried my best to learn as much as I could from my teacher Mr.D.Nath , whanau and friends. Thank you to all those that supported me.

These are my reflections on what I did on the Chromebooks this year.

I have learnt how to use chromebook for my blogging, social skills and to do a lot of work starting from term 1. I have helped my friends in class spell, answer math problems and I helped them out with reading.

I  am able to think about the multiple topics I am going to research on and write questions, using gmail and sharing my work on the blog, read more online books, stories and articles while looking for information , deciding which sites are safe for me to access and use information from, sharing my learning on my blog and class blog.
