Spanish Learning

Spanish Learning 

This past two weeks we have been learning about Spanish and learning the basics like Number, Greetings, Basic conversation and colours. There is a big difference when it comes to some things in Spanish, one of the main ones is the difference between masculine and Feminine. If a word is masculine it will have a "o" at the end but if it is feminine it will have an a, the word the  changes for male and female, the is los (Masculine) and las (Feminine). The numbers we have been learning as well, my favourite task was when we were given a phone number in Spanish and we had to translate it. 

1 - uno

2- dos

3- Tres

4- cuatro

5- cinco

6- seis

7- siete

8- ocho

9- nueve

10- diez

Colours- The colours are pretty easy to remember, 

The Impossible Burger

The Impossible Burger
The Impossible burger is a plant based patty that tastes looks and smells like the real thing. The new Impossible burger made by Impossible Foods is a completely plant based burger that is now available in many stores and fast food chains across the world. With 11% of the population being vegetarian it’s no wonder a company saw the opportunity and went for it. This isn’t the first burger the company has made, the first one was a little off, so now they have made another, this time a lot better than it was before.


The new Impossible burger has a total of 240 calories and the old one has 210. The total fat of both burgers is 14 grams, nothing has changed there. The saturated fat however has gone up and now comes in at 8 grams, the original burger has 6. The sodium (salt) has gone up as well the new burger has a total of 37 grams of added salt and the old one has about 36 grams added to its burger, both of these are about 16 percent of your daily intake/ limit of salt.
The new impossible burger seems to always have a higher total of salt, calories and fat, but does this make it taste better and more like the real thing?

Would you try the impossible burger?

Ernest Shackleton Biography

Ernest Henry Shackleton was born on the 15th of February 1874 in Small town
Kilkea, Ireland. At a young age he joined the Merchant Navy and achieved first
mate at the age of 18. In 1907 he set off on his first mission the Nimrod, led by
British naval officer Robert Falcon Scott on the ship 'Discovery'. Shackleton and
Scott, along with one other were sent there for research and returned shortly after
due to illness.   

Shortly after getting home from his previous mission he was preparing and
training for the endurace, although he went through five years of prep and
planning not everything went to plan. Miles away from where they were
meant to land the ship sank and they were forced to board their life boats.
After another long journey they made it to the coast of Antarctica,  where they
lived on an ice floe. Just a few hundred miles from the pole they had to abandon their second mission because of yet more illness.

"MEN WANTED: FOR HAZARDOUS JOURNEY. SMALL WAGES, BITTER COLD, LONG MONTHS OF COMPLETE
DARKNESS, CONSTANT DANGER, SAFE RETURN DOUBTFUL. HONOUR AND RECOGNITION IN CASE OF
SUCCESS.

- SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON"

Inquiry

Inquiry
Every term we have a new inquiry this term we had the subject, the power of media, for this term I decided on Print media. We were each given a role to play and we had to all work together to come out with the end result which was our newspaper. I was the editor of the community section but I ended up assembling to Junior section. This term our inquiry went really well and everyone was involved. Here is the final Junior pages, what do you think of them?
