SLJ Activity 1

 Today we looked at the SLJ blog and we got told to colour in a only picture of the options that there were I coloured in about 3 drawings, we are having a competition of who's drawing is the best the one i'm choosing to submit this one because it was one of the best ones I made, it was pretty easy to colour in I thought it would've been harder since it was online but it was pretty easy to work with and much easier than colouring in with pencils.

B&E

 Hello,

This term we're working on our business and enterprise kete, we did this last year it was fun making and selling our products, my group last year made scrunchies we made about 80 of them since they we're really easy to make, this year my group is doing clay jewellery which seems pretty challenging and fun to make, we have to make everything like a business our plan our goal and we have a amount of money to buy our supplies to make money out of them, hopefully this year will be as fun as it was last year.

These are some ideas for our products.

where to record your responses.
Using an ice-cream stick you will dip it into the Sample.
Once the sample is on the stick you will taste it and tell your partner your response.
There will be 2 Answers.
At taste test one you need to hold your nose.

Answer 1. Is it sweet, sour, salty, bitter. Record it.
