Cultural Assessment- Home Economics

For the whole of this term our Home Economics class has been working on a Cutural assessment with the final product being a dish from that culture. I got in a group with Austin and we chose Italy. We had to answer a bunch of different questions about Italy's culture and put it on a slide show. Then we had to decide on one dish from that country and we knew from the start we would do pizza. We researched recipes and decided on a Pepperoni Pizza. On the day we were quite stressed because we were running out of time fast so we had to cut the dough resting short and hurry up and cook the pizza. The final product came out good and this is the link our slide show,

Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?

My Perspective:

#1) The Simple Sentence

I don't think teachers should be allowed to carry guns around school.

While I can see why it could be necessary, I don't think it's needed to be armed while in a school as there can be many negatives.

#2) Very Short Sentence

Teachers shouldn't be armed.

It will be a good idea for teachers to be armed around the school.

Armed teachers, this is a good idea for themselves and students, this is for their safety.

This is the link to my Prezi presentation.

In Business studies, we have been learning about budgeting. Our learning outcome was to identify their needs, wants, and personal values. I made a Prezi about the stages of budgeting. 

Reflection:

I did well I could have done more by myself but I did well. I could have listened more in class though.
