Beeswax Wraps

Kia ora bloggers,

In our class we made Beeswax wraps they are like glad wrap but they are biodegradable and better for our planet. Today I will be showing you how to make them, but first you neend to know what to buy:
Beeswax pellets
100% cotton cloth
An iron
baking paper

1. Grab an old towel and lay your towel on a table, then you need to place a sheet of baking paper on the towel.
2.  Grab your 100% cotton cloth and cut it 30cm by 30cm, once you have done that you need to place it on the baking paper(make sure that your baking paper is bigger than the cloth).
3. Grab a handful of beeswax pellets and distinguish them around your cloth. Now put another sheet of baking paper ontop of the cloth, Iron ontop of the baking paper and wait until the pellets have melted. 
4. Slowly take off the first sheet of baking paper and make sure that every thing melted and that it all covers the cloth. Peel the cloth off then wave it around so it drys faster, and now you have a Beeswax Wraps. PS: DON'T GO NEAR BEES

Here is my beeswax wrap.

Rubbish prevention

Kia ora bloggers,

Do you use plastic bags? Well plastic bags are very bad for our planet, because like most plastic it can take more than 100 years to break down, so they will last longer than you! If you love sea creatures and wildlife like me you should stop using plastic bags because animals think that its food and it can be deady if its ingested. This is an infographic that I  made. Here are some things you can do to help.

What makes a good blog post

Kia ora bloggers!

Today I was looking at a few blogs and guess what I found, I found a blog post with no writing just a slide! I don't think that is a quality blog post( I will not not say who because we all should have privacy.) I hope none of you guys have a blog post like that. But some people might not know what a quality blog post looks like, so you guys don't make the same mistake this is what is in a quality blog post.



That is what is in a quality blog post and this is what a quality blog post looks like.
The blog I got this from is Hosanna

Toolkit badge!

Hello bloggers,

Today I will be showing you guys something really exciting.
I got a toolkit badge! If your unfamiliar with what a "toolkit" is let me explain it. So it is where a group of schools all comes together at one school and they teach others things for most of the day, so they are basically the teachers for the day. Funny right?
So now the part we have all been wating for the badge!

Comment and tell me if you got one and what you did. Bye!
