It’s time for interviews

It was very easy for me to find a person to interview because as you know I am a baker so I go to this person a lot for baking classes and she owns a very successful bakery in Harrison NY, Her name is Nora.

I emailed her through my mom’s Facebook account and she was up for it.

 

She helped me answer One of my sub-questions, That was How has technology helped baking and changed it throughout time. And since she owns a bakery she works with a lot of tools that use technology. 

 

Here are the questions I asked her

  1. What got you into baking
  2. What kinda tools have changed from then and now
  3. How the design that people use on cakes on cupcakes and all sweet treats changed throughout time
  4. Have any of the techniques you used and use now changed
  5. Have you noticed any technology used changed for baking
  6. What are some ingredients that used now used that you thought you were never gonna use
  7. What somethings you love to bake 
  8. Why did you choose baking as your job
  9. Do you think cooking and baking are similar
  10. What is one thing you don’t like about baking 

 

I thought my questions were good but once I got into the interview I had some others I wanted to ask some other questions about my topic but I didn’t do it.

 and also thought about how when I was about to say the question sometimes they didn’t seem so reasonable so I would try to think of something on the spot.

 

In the end, One thing that was so interesting that she said in the interview was that when she would cook with her grandma they wouldn’t use tools they would use there hands and she uses that in her bakery as well. Nora helped me so much and I have a great feeling that I will rock capstone!

In my class, we are doing Capstone!

My topic is balking and The reason I choose it because I always had a passion. I always find fun and amazing to express yourself and you can be creative. I’ve been baking for a long time, I can bake cakes, cookies, cupcakes, and much more. I really love baking

 

Well as you know I have to do this project virtually and for me, it has been very hard to understand if I can do this or if I did this right but now I think I kinda got used to it. One thing that was pretty stressful for me was the sub-questions because it was hard to think of questions that you had to research for not just a fact. For instance, when I had three out of five sub-questions I had no idea what I was going to do and I was really frustrated and not happy.

 

Well, now I know that everything’s gonna be okay and I’m excited to see how capstone goes because this is just a beginning.

 

Rube Goldberg Blog Post #1

In my class, Weare doing a project called Rube Goldberg. Rube Goldberg is when you use simple machines and another object that is supposed to get a ball into a cup or something like that. There are six simple machines, A Pulley, Lever, Wheel and Axle, Wedge, Incline plain and, Screw.

I and my group are almost done with our sketch but the hard thing is about working in a group is that if you don’t have one team member there it’s hard to get everything done. I and my group are a little behind but as soon as the building starts I think we can catch up.

I think that this project is gonna be fun but at the same time, it will be a frustrating cause of how many times it will take to get it right. This project is to help with teamwork and knowing that not everything will happen on the first try.

Is There a Fire?

Is there a fire in Heathcote school right in front circle? But the good news is that there wasn’t but also it wasn’t a drill this is how it all started. All of Heathcote was coming in waiting for the bell to ring and … boom the fire alarm went off every kid was scared because there has never been at that school a fire alarm before the bell rings. The music teacher brought outside all the kids. Then one of the kid said ” Its Friday the thirty.” Then everyone got more scared and then the police and a fire truck came and that’s when every one was horrified. But luckily it was a just a drill and someone must of pulled the fire hydrant. But the good thing is that everyone is okay.

Heart

 

 

I wrote this poem and it is called Heart.  I got this poem from my mom because she was smart but shy. Also the thing about poems about hearts for me is it just hits my heart and I know what I going to write and it is just planned in my mind. I really enjoy writing about hearts.

Expert Book – Cheerleading

My topic is about Cheerleading. I chose this topic because I know a lot about it and I have been in lots of competitions.

First, I had to get my topic. Then I had to put my chapters in most important to least important. Then, the writing part. We also had lots of lessons with our teacher. We did our introduction at the end. I liked when we were putting in our nonfiction text features. I liked how I did my labels for my bases and Backspot, it looked cool.

I think that the most challenging part was the pictures because it was hard to find and a lot of stuff was trash.

I hope when you are done reading this book you will be an expert on Cheerleading!!!

 

Plant Personification

I grow in the Heathcote Garden

A great green stem, the roots are down to the ground

I am a mexican sunflower

 

A sunshine in the sky so bright I lose my sight

A beautiful breeze in the sky

I am a mexican sunflower

 

So beautiful lilies next to me and so pretty purple aster

I am a mexican sunflower

 

Butterflies flying high bees are buzzing

I grow a bit small not to tall

A large stem almost to the sky

I am a mexican sunflower
