Technology-Halloween Cupcakes




Seth's job was to design a decoration with a Halloween theme to top his cupcake. Firstly he looked at some Halloween designs, then he chose his design, drew a picture of it and coloured it. Seth made a prototype of the decoration using play dough. The final step involved Seth using royal icing to make his design and sticking it to the top of his cupcake.

Technology - Biscuit Design

Seth's brief was to design a biscuit flavour and choose some ingredients to add to it. Seth chose the sweet oaty biscuit and added chocolate chips to his batter. Seth drew his design, coloured it and add the extra ingredients he chose. Seth made his biscuits and baked them.




Thematic Unit


Science
Learning Goal: To participate in hands on scientific experiments, where he could explore using descriptive language through scientific exploration and play.
Seth experienced a number of hands on experiments including make predictions about oil and water, thinking around why mentos makes diet coke explode into a volcanic eruption, questioning why white, brown and dark chocolate melt at different rates, predicting if ice melting will impact on the level of water, and predicting what impact salt has on the rate ice melts.


Evaluation: Seth participated in these experiments. He got to ask questions, make predictions and get involved in seeking answers for the questions we asked.



Fitness
Learning Goal: To participate in physical activities, such as, run around the field, to gain fitness and physical health.
Evaluation: Seth participated in physical activities with the goal of extending his fitness and well being by running or walking around the school field 2 or more times daily.
Seth was a keen participant in this exercise and ran hard to be the winner.

Technology

Learning Goal: To participate in hands on Technology practice to design and produce specific outcomes, and
to learn how to label and report information about technological practice.


Evaluation: Seth participated in technology practice by designing biscuits, making a mosaic photo frame, halloween cupcakes, and writing stories which were then made into imovies.

Technology - Mosaic Photo Frames

Seth rolled out salt dough, cut out small tiles and set aside to dry. He designed his photo frame, choosing Christmas as his theme and decided his colours. Seth then glued the tiles to his photo frame and painted on his colour choices.
