(what the Slave Trade Triangle looks like)
paragraph one: What is The Slave Trade Triangle?

The Slave Trade Triangle transported people to be slaves. The Slave Trade Triangle is where some people take other people of all ages to work for free. They were taken from Africa by slave traders who had sailed from Europe. An example of this is the vogue it was depressing all the people that got treated horribly made me want to kill the people that started the slave trading. In the next paragraph, I will tell you what they did to the slaves.

Health 2018

Over the last few weeks, we have been doing Introductions, Class treaty and SMART Goal setting.

Our class Treaty was made together because we wanted to respect others in the class.

I shared the things I love in my "About Me Cube" because the things I love are important to me they are what make me how I am.  

 It was difficult to share Information about the things I love on a piece of paper because I don't want people to read it I wont to tell them what I love.

When goal setting it is important to have a goal that you can actually achieve.

My SMART goal is to help my family with things they need help with. 

Some barriers could be that when something happens to them I might not always be there.

Enablers include being there to help them.

Te Whare Tapawha 

Hauora is a Maori philosophy of health specific to New Zealand

It is made up of 4 dimensions and is highlighted in Maori health, by a model called ‘Te Whare Tapa Wha’.

In health, we had to work with people that we don't normally work with to do Hauora. I helped with writing the 4 dimensions (Physical, Socal, Mental & Emotional and Spiritual). Sometimes we didn't agree with each other but we put our ideas together.

Cooking method used yesterday was stir-fry

This means the pan was on a high heat and the veggies are cooked for a short period of time.

We know when the chicken is cooked when its wight in the middle and when the juice is wight.
And the internal temp is over 70c
The nutrients we get from the practical yesterday were carbohydrates, Vitamins and protein.

Moe chose three and tell me their fun

Spaghetti Bolognese
Makeover Changes

Swap with 1 tablespoon of canola oil or margarine
Swap for learning mince Eg: premium or prime
Reduce to 1/4 tsp iodised salt
Reduce - Use tomatoes with no added salt or fresh tomatoes

Reduce by half due to salt content Add vegetables such as grated carrot and peppers for fibre and nutrients

Can use wholemeal pasta for increase fibre Check- using a non-stick pan

Flavour - add fresh tomatoes and herbs for flavour boost instead of salt


What is the focus of the meals that we are cooking for this unit?

The focus if making the meal is to stay healthy

If I could add to the recipe I would put in peas and corn
