Excellent: I explore various ways of manipulating the elements to develop a solution that is thoroughly developed to rich and fine detail. I had tested and/or improved my prototypes a few times.

Good: I explore several ways of manipulating the elements

to develop a solution that is well developed to substantial detail. I had tested and/or improved my prototypes a few times.

Developing: I explore a few ways of manipulating the elements to develop a solution that is partially developed to some detail. I had tested and/or improved my prototypes at least once.

Needs Improvement:
I explore one way of manipulating the elements to develop a solution that is superficially developed, lacking in detail. I made only one prototype and did not test and/or improve it.

Creativity: Being able to think out the box and come up with an interesting idea for all the art pieces that I do.

Expression: When working in pairs or groups to complete an artwork, I hope to communicate my ideas and thoughts well so that my peers and I would agree on an idea together and there would be less room for disagreements and arguments .

I learned to be able to make scrambled eggs and also work with my partner. I realised that we have to work well and plan before hand as we were relatively slow.

Something that I learnt today was that eggs were so versatile and we could make different types of egg dishes (e.g. Scrambled egg, Hard boil egg and omlete

Today we made a mushroom and spinach quiche and peach crumble. Overall, it was a successful attempt and I learnt how to make the quiche crust using flour, water and butter. I also realised that we had to poke holes on the bottom of the quiche to allow the hot air to escape.

What is another alternative for the filling of the quiche?
My partner and I opted for the mushroom and spinach filling but I also got to try the quiche with tuna filling that some of my friends made and it was equally tasty. So a quiche with tuna filling can be another alternative.

# data[].attributes.body
Today, we made cookies and cupcakes. The cupcakes puffed up nicely and did not overflow. The texture of the cupcake was dense and closed, making it the perfect texture for cupcakes.

Our cookies did not overbake and were a delicious golden brown colour. They had a crunchy texture and a buttery taste. Another alternative could be nuts and it is a healthier option.

# data[].attributes.body
Compare your cupcakes to the ones made my your teacher (less fat version) Which cupcakes are healthier and why?
Mrs Lee'a cupcakes were healthier as they had less fat and less sugar.

Which do you prefer?
I prefer the ones made by us. I think that Mrs Lee's cupcakes were more dry and I preferred the more sense texture of us.

Show 3 ways you can make your cupcakes healthier.
1. Reduce the fat content
2. Reduce the sugar
3. Add fibre to the cupcake (fruits, blueberries, strawberries etc.

I was able to make my quiche healthier by using different vegetables and changing the protein from tuna to shredded chicken. I also added some fruits to the dish. The manipulative skill was the rubbing in method to make short crust pastry.
I was able to manage my time quite well and was able to finish under 1h. One initial difficulty that I faced was deciding what dish I wanted to make and what ingredients should go into my dish. I eventually decided to make a quiche, because of the high manipulative skill and I decided to replace canned tuna with fresh shredded chicken as it is lower in preservatives and thus healthier. I would have improved in terms of plating. I think that I should have used a plate for my fruit skewers and not a cup as the height difference was too grea

How useful were the nutritional tools?
The nutritional tools helped me to understand the different food types better and allowed me to explore the different ingredients that had different nutritional values.
How manageable were the manipulative skills for you?
They were manageable as I was able to re-create the dishes that required the manipulative skills quite well.
How purposeful were the investigative activities in helping you come up with your final creation?
The activities were able to tell me more about the different food groups and food items. They provided me with useful information like the pros and cons of the different ingredients and allowed me to come to a decision, as to what I wanted to make, faster. Thus, it aided me in my decision making.
