In Redwood N.S. we go on laptops to write blogs to help us learn.

We write blogs in Redwood school. I write about different stuff like Running in Thurles and Pancakes.

Redwood are entering a competition for a certificate. We do the blogs on laptops. We can also go on Prezi, Story bird, Kahoot and Geosstr.

I think ICT is a very good idea for learning. I think every school should do it.

Redwood NS use a wide variety of websites to bolster our education.

Firstly, the equipment we use to access the internet are, five laptops and four iPads. We often use these throughout the day to use the internet.

At Redwood NS we have our own website with a blog which we update frequently. We have a massive selection of topics ranging from match reports to events in school. The blogs I am most proud of are my Argentina vs Ireland match report, my Man Utd report and my Leicester City season report. I love posting blogs on our website.

We use a lot of websites in school. We use sites such as Kahoot, a quiz website where you make a quiz and play other people's quizzes, Storybird, a website where you can create your own book. You can import pictures off the internet to your story too. Another website is Geoguessr, a website where you have to guess where you are in the world judging off a picture. I love using these websites but my favourite is Prezi, a presentation website where you choose your template and make a presentation from there.

In school we have submitted an application for DPSM. We are very hopeful that we can achieve the certificate.

Last Friday in school we planted some veggies.
We planted lettuce, tomatoes, turnips and carrots.
In school we watched a powerpoint presentation showing us what to do.
​
First we put soil into litle cups. We then watered the soil before we put the seeds in. We each had our own cup and made three holes in the soil, when we got the seeds we each put a couple of seeds in each hole and covered them up again with soil.
We put lables on the cups so we knew which one was which and put them on the windowsill.

Growing tomatoes:
We water them every 5 days. After 9-12 weeks a small leaf will appear that means you now have to move the tomatoes into a pot 30cm in diameter make sure the top of the plant is sticking out of the soil. Still water every 5 days. Weeks 13 - 20 a yellow flower will appear. Now you hane to water every 3 days. Week 16-20 the flower will die away and the fruit will appear as a small green ball keep watering every 3 days. Around 22-25 weeks later the tomatoes should be a bright red colour. There are your beautiful, juicy and Homegrown tomatoes!

We are still in the process of growing all of our fruit and veg.
​Mabye at the end of the year we will make some soup.   
                            All of our vegetables and fruits.

 Materials, 
 Cream,
 Whisk,
 Two bowls,
A pinch of salt,
Plate,
Knife.

 First we poured the cream into the bowl and began to whisk.
After one minute it was frothy and thicker than from when the cream was poured in.

Then when two minutes were up it looked a lot sturdier but very lumpy!
When another minute  went by this watery looking milk came out of the butter. We poured that into a bowl and got straws to drink it.It was a actually really nice!!!

Once all the watery milk was out of the butter we scraped the butter onto the plate and sprinkled a small bit of salt on a bit of butter and put all the butter in the fridge over night.

The next evening we tried the butter on crackers,
it was delicous!
