Describe your business and what your product was.  My group just sold drinks and chips. 

How did you find the process of making your items and working as a team? We didnt make anything we just brought drinks and chips from the store and sold them.

What were the highlights of the process ( What did you enjoy ) I enjoyed walking around buying stuff and talking with my friends.

What were the challenges of the process ( What you did not enjoy ) I did not enjoy how long we did it for. 

How did Market Day go? Market day went good because my group sold out fast so we could just do anything for the rest of the market day. 

Did you enjoy it and why? I enjoyed not doing any school work and yeah no school work.

How did you show you were using the school values? I showed my school values by showing them.

Book

Hello welcome back to my blog today I am going to talk about the class book we read last term. We read a book about named holes. The book was about a kid named Stanley yelnats that was always at the wrong place at the wrong time. Stanley yelnats then ended up  going to this place called camp green lake where all you do is dig holes. They then end up just digging holes until he is a good boy then Stanley yelnats get released. My favourite character was Stanley yelnats because he was the only character apart from the guard. I did not enjoy the book because it was 70 chapters long of just talking about digging holes. Stanley yelnats in the book and in the movie dont like it and they both dig holes. I did not like the movie as well because it was the same as the book and 2 hours of digging holes. I would recommend the book to anyone that likes to read.
