Genetically Modified Foods in the Classroom

 This is a link to a lesson plan (grades 9-12) on genetically modified foods.

School Observation

During my observation I learned that the school I was at had a garden. This garden was used for both science classes and the culinary program. I thought this combination of learning to cook in the kitchen and to use food grown in a garden outside was great because it provides nutrition, teaches hands on learning and the importance of local food. Below I have posted a link to A toolkit for high schools to grow food. This toolkit was developed in Vancouver.

Photo Editing Assignment Review

In this photo editing assignment I used Picnik and Splashup. I liked what both had to offer for editing features. I liked splashup, it seems to have alot more features than picnik. However, I thinked I like picnik more, it seemed more simple, but I liked how the editing tools were laid out.

Third Photo Edited with Splashup

For this third photo, I used splashup. The tools I used were text, free transform and noise effect(making the grainy look).
