Dane found this recipe for chilli con carne. He has 525g of mince.

Chilli con carne (2 people)

Ingredients

• 175 g Mince

• 1 bay leaf

• 50 g tomatoes 

• ½ an onion

• ½ tsp chilli powder 

• 120 g red kidney beans

1. How much of the ingredients will he need so that he can use all of the mince? 

2. How many people can he feed?

Answers:

1. Times every ingredient by 3:

Mince - 175g x 3 = 525g

Bay Leaf - 1 x 3 = 3

Tomatoes - 50g x 3 = 150g 

Onion - ½ x 3 = 1 ½ 

Chilli Powder - ½ tsp x 3 = 1 ½ tsp

Red Kidney Beans - 120g x 3 = 360g

2. 6 people - 2p x 3 = 6p

🥊Boxing with Pax Day 4🥊

🥊Boxing with Pax Day 4🥊

Annyeonghaseyo, welcome to my blog! Today room 9 had our 4th session of boxing. For the first half of our lesson Pax taught us how to step to the left and to the right while in our wall position. It was kind of hard but I kind of got the hang of it. She then taught 4 different combos that include all the skills we learnt. The 1st combo was Jab, cross, hook and uppercut. Me and my two buddies had a lot of fun, we made a few mistakes but those just made us laugh even more. The 2nd combo she taught was jab, jab, cross, hook and uppercut. The 3rd and 4th combo were also really fun. After all me and buddies had a really good time, Annyeong!

My Career Pathway

Annyeonghaseyo, welcome to my blog! This is a presentation I have created about my career pathway. I’ve chosen my career to be a singer because I’ve always dreamt about going on stage singing songs that I wrote while fans are waving their arms around enjoying my music. Every time I think about it, it just makes me want to accomplish that dream. I hope you enjoy, Annyeong!

🥊Boxing with Pax Day 2🥊

🥊Boxing with Pax Day 2🥊

Annyeonghaseyo, welcome to my blog! Today room 9 had our second session of boxing. It was really fun. Once we all were there we had to buddy up with someone so my partner was a boy, his name is George. Before we got into learning our new boxing skills we had a little recap of the skills we learnt last week. After about 2 minutes we then learnt the next 3 skills which Pax prepared for us. The skills she taught were step forward, step back & the bridge.

Instructions to each skill:

Step forward: Step forward with your leg that lines up with your weak hand, then straight after step forward with your leg that lines up with your stronger hand. 

An example for this is if your left hand is the weaker hand step forward with that leg, if your right hand is the stronger hand step forward with your right leg after.

Step back: Step back with the leg that lines up with your stronger hand, then straight after step back with the leg that lines up with your weaker hand. 

An example for this is if your right hand is your stronger hand the step back with your right leg, if your left hand is your weaker hand step back with your left leg after.

The bridge 1: The bridge includes the step forward and step back, step forward first whilst jabbing with your left hand and then step forward again doing a jab cross then step back. 

The bridge 2: For this bridge you need to step forward whilst doing jab cross, then step forward again doing jab cross and then step back.

I hope you can learn some boxing skills from this blog post, but please when you do be careful so that you don't hurt yourself or other people.

Hope you enjoy, Annyeong!

🥊Boxing with Pax Day 1🥊

🥊Boxing with Pax Pt. 1🥊

Hello viewers, today my class had our first session of kiwi-sport which was Boxing. Our coach was Pax, she taught us how to jab, cross, catch a punch and a posture called the wall. She read to us 3 commandments that we need to follow inorder to continue learning boxing.

The 3 commandments are:

RESPECT

I will have respect for myself, my coach, my peers and the sport of boxing.

DISCIPLINE

I will have the discipline to turn to every boxing session and give my 100%

SAFETY

I will not cause harm to others and only practice boxing in a safe environment under the guidance of a coach.

I really enjoyed today's session, can't wait for the next one.

I hope you enjoy, Goodbye!

🎤💭😴My dream to become a singer😴💭🎤

🎤💭😴My dream to become a singer😴💭🎤

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.” 

People dream about what they want to do or who they want to become, but sometimes when it comes to making those dreams come true it gets difficult. Most people tend to give up because they start to lose faith in themselves but I don’t want to be like that.

My dream has always been to become a singer but when it comes to singing in front of others I lose confidence. I used to always sing proudly and confidently but after I came to know about bullying I began to feel insecure of my talent. As I grew older I’ve regretted not making progress so I’ve slowly been getting back on track and I am now singing more regularly. 

I want to become a singer because I want to share my talent with the whole world, so I will continue to try my best in order for that dream to turn into a reality. Knowing that there will be tough situations make me want to give up but I will put my infinity amount of effort into that dream until I succeed. Young people who became famous like Billie Eilish and Charli D'Amelio have inspired me that we are never too young to make our dreams come true.

In conclusion, I want to let everyone know that being young doesn’t mean you can't become successful in life. You just need to have confidence and the ability to take action. Even if there is no one who supports you, just know that as long as you believe in yourself there's no stopping you from what you want to do.

📋✊🏽Growth Mindset Quotes Day:2✊🏽📋

📋✊🏽Growth Mindset Quote✊🏽📋

Kia Ora, welcome to my blog!

I have chosen 2 growth mindset quotes to share with you all. What stands out to me in the 1st quote is that if you're eager to learn no one can interfere with that because it is something you've put your mind/focus into. What I learnt from the 2nd quote is that you shouldn't give up if you feel like a lot of weight is on you, instead you should overcome that feeling.

Here are two quotes I chose:

"If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you."

"don't give up when the pressure mounts.

FACE YOUR DOUBTS. MASTER YOUR FEARS."

Predator Free 2050

Predator Free 2050
85 million years ago NZ was one of the first countries to split apart from Gondwanaland. Gondwanaland is when all the land in the whole Earth was together in one big country - they split up and became the continents. This meant that the only mammals NZ has, either swan here or flew here.

Because NZ is an island with no mammals, the birds, insects etc became defenseless (because they had no predators to hide from). Maori and Europeans settlers killed lots of animals, and brought with them predators from other countries (for example possums, rats, stoats, dogs).

Those predators brought here by settlers, have destroyed our native birds/plants. NZ has one of the worst extinction records of any nation in the world.

NZ has been trying to control the pests by using traps, poisoning but it hasn’t really worked. We need to work together to control the pests.

It is everyone’s responsibility to control pests and protect native species - all New Zealanders.

Technology Reflection

Hello, welcome to my blog!

Yesterday it was my first day back at technology so I've decided to write a little bit about how my experience was. The group I've been put in to start the year with was cooking. In the cooking group we got a new teacher which is Mrs Hamer, what she prepared for us to make on the first day was colorful fruit cups. 

Here are the ingredients we were given: Rock Melon, Grapes, Kiwifruit, Blueberry, Watermelon & Yoghurt. All we did was slice and peel the fruits then we stacked the fruits in a small cup and poured yoghurt on the top with some leftover fruit sprinkled on top. Sadly we weren't able to take photos since it was the first week back so here is an image from google of what they looked like:
