The Vile Vendor

This game is called the vile vendor.  It is a probability game.  In this game I had to look at the object I had to find and predict how many cans are in the vending machine to get the answer.  This game was really easy for me.  The next subject I want to learn is my multiplication.

Bubble Gum

Bubble Gum

WALT: write and explanation.

The first person who made gum was Walter Diemer.  He invented bubble gum in 1928.  He made bubble gum because bubble gum had the word bubble and Walter loved bubbles.  In 1928, he decided to make bubble gum.  Walter used rubber and dye to make gum.  Walter made his bubble gum in Fleer Chewing Gum Co in Philadelphia.  

Long ago, people made bubble gum from trees called Rosin.  Rosin is collected from growing pine trees.  Bubble gum was also made from bark tar.  Long ago the people used bubble gum for mouth freshners.  The Aztecs also used gum to stick things on walls.

Today  bubble gum is made  out of synthetic plastic and rubber with machines.  The rubber and synthetics are mixed  with food colouring and flavoring.  Next the bubble gum gets mixed with a special liquid to keep the gum base soft.  After that  dextrose, a powdered sweetener is added..  Then the bubble gum  is mixed for about 20 minutes.  This stirring action builds up heat to stick everything together.  

Next  the bubble gum  is put into a machine.  The machine squeezes the gum together.  The machine transforms the gum into strips.  The strips then go to another machine to make bite sized gum.   To make the gum cool faster, the gum gets put into a cooling chamber.  

When the gum is done and ready to eat, the machines start to make the wrapper for the gum.  People put each bite sized gum into a wrapper.  Then the sides of the wrapper get twisted by a machine.  Next, every gum gets put into buckets and is  ready to be packed into boxes.

That is the modern process of making bubblegum that we buy from Pak n Sav.

Grammar Blast

This game is called Grammar Blast.  In this game, you have the find out the missing words to complete the sentence.  The answer to this sentence is anything . . . anywhere.  I figured it out by reading the sentence and looking if the words match the sentence.  This game was really for me.  Next time I play a reading game, I want to learn my spelling.  

Counting

This game is called Counting Objects.  You have to count how many animals are in this picture and colour the squares.  If you count them wrong, you can always erase the colours.  This game was easy for me to play.  My high score on this game is 55.  Next time I play this game, I want to beat my high score to get a higher score. Next time I play maths games, I want to learn how to make strategies and learn statistics.
