Belgium chocolate sales

Thanks to the students and parents who made us our lovely 'Belgium' chocolates. The class made $125 dollars. Room 6 and Room 5 also has great success with their sales. Go team BLUE.

4 agreements art

For a while now we have been focusing on The Four Agreements:

1. Never assume
2. Always do your best
3. Speak with integrity [sic]
4. Don't take anything personally

This is some of the art that we have created from our thinking cards.

Chocolate coated Peanut Butter Balls.

1 cup rice bubbles
1 cup icing sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup coconut
2-3 tablespoons soft butter.
Kremelta


Mix the above together until at soft ball stage. Roll into small balls and cool in the fridge for a short time. (if the mixture is a bit crumbly, add more peanut butter)

Melt chocolate and a small amount of Kremetla until runny, dip peanut butter balls into this and place onto baking paper until set.


This is a roundabout recipe. Not exact at all. A kind of throw it in the bowl type of thing! ;o)

Speeches next week.

Don't forget your speeches should be ready to go by Monday. If you need feedback, please email me at: 


sipsen@maeroa.school.nz 


I usually check this email address once a day. 


Remember the criteria we have on the whiteboard about presenting a speech. I hope you have all had a chance to film yourself and watch the footage for self assessment as I suggested. 


Remember: How you stand (no fidgeting)
                    How you sound
                    Who you are presenting to
                    Look confident
                    Know your topic.


This is quite good for a bit of a look.
