Making Ice-cream

Hi my name is Irene and I’m talking about science. The teacher for science is Whaea Tepora. This week we made ice-cream. First we put ice in a big packet then we put rock salt with the ice to keep the ice nice and cold.

Next we put cream in a small packet and added vanilla essence. After that we put the small bag of cream into the big bag then shook it for 5 minutes.  Then you have got ice-cream. You can make other flavours too by adding different ingredients.


I hope you can follow these steps - if you do then enjoy your ice-cream.

Get Writing NZ

R18 has been super lucky to be involved in Schoolkit NZ's get writing activity. We completed 32 postcards and wrote some exciting metaphors to go on the back. We also did a Ko Wai Au sheet about our class with lots of interesting facts about us. One of things that was a surprise to us was how many kids we had in our families. Can you guess the total amount? We bet you can't!
