20% project week12-Joseph Zayas-period 3


This week, I have started to do my final power point presentation for my English class. I have started to go through the different pictures that we have to use for our slides. I also have a video of my showing my sister how to make onion rings. I also have the different pictures of what I taught them how to make. My sister really does not want me to put any embarrassing pictures of her in the power point, but I am thinking that I want to regardless.  As of now, I want to use the final my brother make of chicken alfredo,  the calzone,  the Buffalo Wild Wings and Onion rings, the homemade pizza, and the pasta. The food all look pretty good, and I am pretty proud of these kids. The put up with me lecturing them and yelling at them when they did something wrong. I learned a valuable lesson too. When teaching, you need to be patient and learn that everyone will learn at a different pace .

20% project week11-Joseph Zayas-period 3

This week, i showed my brother how to make chicken alfredo. This was a fun one, because as his final,  I didn't help at all, besides give him the recipe. First, he copied his recipe down. Then he went and cut the chicken into small bite size pieces, then shake and baked it, and finally put it in the oven for 20 minutes. He then put the noodles to boil for about 10 minutes. He then drained the noodles. Once the chicken was done, he grabbed the spinich out, and diced it. Finally, he mixed it all together with the alfedo sauce. It was delicious. I would give him an A for this one.

20% project week10-Joseph Zayas-period 3

This week, for my twenty percent project, I taught my little brother and sister how to make a calzone, something I just had learned to make. It was a pretty easy, especially with three of us down there. I had my sister skin, dice and boil potatoes. I had my little brother cut up the bacon and cook it. After they finished it, I showed them how to make the pizza dough. After it had risen for two hours, I had my brother use a rolling pin to flatten out the dough. Then, we put sauce on half of the dough, then the potatoes, bacon, 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, and pepperonis. Next, it took all three of us to fold it in half, and then pinch the dough together. We baked it for 15 minutes, at 400 degrees farenheight. Do not forget to flip it after about 8 minutes, to ensure both sides were cooked. It came out beautiful, even if it did look a little funky after we cut and served it.
