Reflection - Medieval Times

In Medieval times we have been learning about the roles of the villagers in a small town. Such as the blacksmith who has to create weapons and Armour for the master at arms. So he can train peasants to fight in the wars like the crusade. We also learnt about what all of the cottages and houses were made of. One of my favourite bit in the medieval lessons was to learn roles and what they have to do. we are converting it in to minecraft. I am a blacksmith so i create the weapons and tool for the miners and knights.

I have really enjoyed the lessons for medieval times and hope we get to do it again some time.

Tech

Hi there informing you about my tech experience so far. I am really enjoying it because we get to make lots of cool devices and also eat lots of delicious things such as curry, pizza and pasta.

My favorite class so far was cooking because you made something every week. One week Matt .C and I made Thai green curry that ended up being korma brown curry. Because Jason (the teacher) forgot to get our Thai green curry paste.

In film making we made a short film about slender, it was very fun to film because Joaquin kept us company. But sometimes he made us laugh to much.

Now we are in  technology and are making a electric piano sort of thing that emits sound sort of like an electric piano. I am really enjoying making it because we get to use a variety of tool to make the finished product. Today is our last week and I cant wait to bring my invention home.

Medieval Times time

Hello, back from holiday and got a new topic. Medieval Times!. I am going to talk about the things that I have learnt during our discussions and tasks. One of the main things that I have learnt are the ranks inside the kingdom e.g. King, servant, farmer, baron and bishop. I have learnt about the merchants and that the wife goes out to get dinner whilst the husband and aquatints work in the stall. An aquatint is a child that works for the stall owner, if the aquatint breaks and object in the stall he will get punished by the stall owner.

In the future I would like to learn about the weapons that the army used and what the castle was defended with.

Bye, Aiden

Pro golfer

Hi how are ya back with today's information which by the title you know what we did and if you didn't, well.......not good. Anyway we played two rounds and in the first one I saw lots of gofers like in whack a mole games and some hare that didnt run away but the coolest animal I saw was a deer and its young walking on the cart path. It wasn't a very good round but I was happy to be outside. The second round was a different story. I played much better but didnt see as much wildlife :(, but that's ok. I was enjoying the second round more because of playing better. And I forgot to mention that aboriginals homes were tipis and Maori holes were more like huts or marais. Here's a question, I leave tomorrow (Friday) and arrive on Sunday. HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN. Reply for awnser.
 Well that is it I won't be posting tomorrow or next day because im in NZ. Cya soon
