When people think of technology they think BIG!, they think of things like factories, power stations really complicated things, but really even little things like torches are technology.
In term two our teacher gave us five two hour lessons to produce a working circuit. Many people chose to create things like torches and lights but I chose to create a tripwire alarm to warn me when my pesky brother or sister tries to get into my room.
After five weeks of work we finally finished our circuits. We all shared our creations.

Catalogue Maths!
In catalogue maths we got to learn about budgets. We drew up a lemonade stand in our books and decided how much money we needed to spend to make the lemonade, then we had to decide how much to price the lemonade.
The next two weeks we had to make up a budget and buy items for a certain event. I chose to buy food for a party.
Then we told everyone what we chose to buy from the magazine we brought together.
