Starting Tech

Four weeks ago we started Tech at the College. I was in sewing we made pencil cases. The fabric I choose to use on my pencil case was one that had cows on it. First we had to get our License and then we had to sew on a piece of paper with straight lines on it. Then we had to choose the colour zip we wanted. After that we had to choose our fabric that we wanted to use and pin it to our zips. Then we had to get our fabric ironed before we could turn it inside out.

Holiday Highlight

In the holidays my mum, my dad, my brother and I went to Waihi Beach. Mum taught us how to dig up crabs in the right place and if they were home we would flick them out off the stick. The crabs had a square shaped shell on top. My Mum said the female crabs have a little black line underneath. They have eight legs. It was cool how they burry themselves under the sand. First they make a hole big enough to fit in, then they crawl in and cover themselves up.
