Judgement

                             Today for Religous Education I used different words to describe Judgement, using Word                                                                             It Out.

Who would you have chosen?

For my Confirmation, I would have chosen St. Thérèse. Because she would never give up in her downfalls and would never let anything get in her way. St. Thérèse was a really strong role model and still is to this day. Even though she would make mistakes, she would still know how to make things better to confess her sins to the Lord.

I am glad that I got to learn about St. Thérèse because I get to choose her as my role model for Confirmation.

Making Decisions

Making Decisions

Hone

Hone has just made it into the school cricket team.  Hone is fielding on the boundary line.  A ball comes straight for him on the full and he catches it.  Everyone cheers.  Then he notices his foot is over the line - therefore the player is not out at all and has hit a six.  The umpire didn’t see and asks Hone whether he caught the ball over the line or not.   What could Hone do?

A. List Options:

Tell the truth

2

Tell a lie

B Say what is right or wrong about each option.

Option 1

It’s right to tell the truth

Option 2

Telling a lie would be wrong

C.  Say what would be the consequences of each option for everyone concerned.
1. When you tell the truth it would be right but then he would lose.

2. When you lie about it later on you will feel guilty.

What values you think lie behind each option and tick those that reflect gospel values -  the values of Jesus.
1. Responsibility, Humilty, Fairness.

2. Guilty, Sin, Disobey

Which option you would have chosen and why.

1. To tell the truth, because you won’t feel guilty, and you’ll know that you’ve done the right thing.

Making choices in life can be difficult and challenging. But when you know what decision is right and just, then it won’t be as hard to choose.

Reading to Learn Satellites

I have been reading to find out more information about satellites. I read two different articles and compare and contrast them.

Do you know how to make sugar look like glass?

Melting sugar

Today at technicraft we melted different types of sugar and tasted it, some of them were not so nice and some of them were, here is how.

What you will need:

• Tripod
• Gauze mat
• Meths burner
• Matches/Lighter
• Types of sugar
• Damp cloth
• Tin foil
• Toothpick

Method:

1. Place your tripod on a flat surface
2. Add your gauze mat onto the top of the tripod.
3. Curve the sides of the tin foil and place over gauze mat
4. Pour what type of your sugar you want into the middle of the tin foil
5. Move the meths burner underneath the tripod
6. Light up one of the matches and light up the  meths burner
7. Mix the sugar around with the side of the toothpick (When the consistency is much like liquid then it is done)
8. Take it off of the tripod and place it down
9. Let it turn back into a solid, and the consistency will then be like glass, but edible

Sugar spider webs (Optional)

If you have decided to make sugar spider webs like these, follow the instructions below.

1. Grab a new toothpick or just use the other side of the older toothpick you would have recently used
2. Dip the toothpick into the melted sugar
3. Slowly take it out leaving the string still attached to the toothpick...

                 Be careful because if it is still liquid then it will be really hot

Final note:

It’s okay if it turns back into solid because then at least you will have a lot of fun, with it looking like glass
