Year 7 Food Technology Workbook: Fill & Download for Free

I use the higher end Android Phones and replace them almost every 2 years. My previous phone was Nexus 5 and current is Oneplus 5T.I believe the following apps are the ones which every user should keep in his/her phone:Google Search: (Mostly Pre-installed) We often come across situations when we have to search something online, look up a word in dictionary, find some article or song - you get the point. Google Search is the best app for these small things.YouTube (Normally Preinstalled): Whenever I am getting bored, I open youtube and play some song on it. Whenever I am stuck at some software or technicality, I go to Youtube and play it’s tutorial. Whenever I am about to buy something, I go to youtube and check out its reviews. So basically, YouTube is like the knowledge hub for me. Wikipedia and forums are all fine but youtube saves time by neatly and nicely summarising things in short videos, thanks to youtubers.inOne App (Get it from Play Store): I have seen people keeping over 30 apps in their phones which are not used more than once in entire month. About 4–5 Apps for food orders, 2–3 apps for booking cabs, 2–3 apps for booking hotel room (and how often do we need that?) and so on. About 6 months back, I discovered inOne which basically eliminates the need to keep other apps by offering their functionalities in single app. It not only lets me order food, book cabs, hotels, flights etc but also let’s me compare prices across providers. So it’s only rational that I keep one app instead of 30, that allows me to do bunch of things without wasting time.What’s App (Get it from Play Store): I don’t think I need to explain this one. In 21st generation, all you need is a smartphone with data and Voila! You are connected to 7 billion people. All you need is their number and WhatsApp is a beautiful app that lets you send messages to them without costing a penny more. There are other apps offcourse, but what makes WhatsApp the best is it’s user base which consists of almost 100% of smart-phone users, unless you are living in China in which case Line is your WhatsApp.Evernote (Get it from Google Play): I personally prefer to take notes in digital devices instead of pen and paper. Earlier, I used Google keep but it has limited functionalities and not such an impressive UI. So now I use Evernote. The difference between Evernote and your traditional notepad application is that, Evernote lets you structure your notes in form of workbooks and pages. Also, you can immediately open Evernote on another device and resume your work without delay as it keeps your data synced up to its servers. So I can easily access my notes on laptop that I created a minute back from my mobile. It’s amazing how technology has changed the way we work.VLC (Get it from Google Play): Your phone does come with some media player but most media players are unable to play all kind of files except VLC. With VLC, you can be sure that it’ll play whatever you throw at it and if it doesn’t, well chances are less that any other player will.Google NEWS (Get it from Google Play): If you prefer to stay updated on what’s happening around the world and the current events, this app is a must. What it does is it keeps a check on what are the topics of your interest and shoes you a tailored news feed that contains only the news that may be of interest to you. Also, I have not seen a faster source of news, as it keeps it’s feed updated vigorously.These are some of the apps which are useful to common user. I also use various other apps including Slack, Cam Scanner, Google Go, Google Translate, Quora etc but these may not be useful for all users.

CanadaMore specifically, British Columbia. Since education is managed at a provincial level, each province has a different system. Although I don't imagine the systems are extremely different from one another. Also, I have only attended public schools and I am currently at a public school.Age 3-4: PreschoolThis portion of schooling is optional and is not run by the government. So if you want to do preschool, you have to pay. My parents sent me to preschool and from what I can remember, there was not much learning involved. They taught really basic stuff such as letters and numbers. The rest of it was mostly play and napping.Age 5-6: KindergartenKindergarten is available to children in every province in the year they turn five (except Ontario and Quebec - I think they start a year earlier). Kindergarten is usually part of elementary schools. It was also full day for me (9 AM - 3 PM). Some schools offer half-day kindergarten programs. There are 20-25 students in a class. You work on reading, writing, and very simple math (my dad ended up buying grade two/three math workbooks for me to do). In addition, we also did other activities such as art, music, napping, and playtime. We probably covered a variety of other random topics throughout the year.Age 6-13: Elementary School (Grade 1-7)Starting in grade one, there is much more structure to the learning. Also, I should make a note that at this point, I joined a fine arts program at the elementary school I attended. Special programs like the fine arts one vary from school to school. Other schools may offer French immersion, a gifted program, etc. You have one teacher for the entire year and generally, you get a different teacher each grade.For the most part, the curriculum is still quite flexible. Teachers have some leeway as to what they topics they can teach within each subject. As long they teach certain skills/topics that the government has decided that students should learn, they can usually teach what they want. The curriculum looks like this (This will probably vary from person to person, I am simply offering my experience):English (they call it Language Arts): spelling, writing, reading, grammar. Essay writing, novels, and poetry - in the later grades. I think in grade six/seven, we did some Shakespeare and Homer. Our teacher made us put on a production of Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, The Iliad, and The Odyssey. All simplified versions of course. I thought that was always quite enjoyable and a good way of learning.Social Studies: Various topics such as ancient civilizations, government, history, geography, cultural studies, current events, etc. Obviously, the difficulty, complexity, and depth increases by grade. By grade six/seven, it was mostly government, ancient civilizations, and geography.Science: I remember a vast variety of topics that were covered. In the earlier grades, very covered topics like animals, space, weather, and the environment at a basic level. For grade six and seven, my teacher was really into science and taught science in depth. It is safe to say that he is one of my favourite teachers, and one that I will remember for the rest of my life. We covered chemistry, electricity, ecology, microbiology, geology, and physics.Mathematics: At the most basic: addition, subtraction, division, multiplication. At the most advanced: algebra, fractions, percentages, geometry, exponents.Physical Education: Various sports and I think we did dance at some point. Safe to say I did not enjoy this subject.Computer class: In the earlier grades, it was basically a class where we played games. In the later grades, we started to utilize various programs such as iMovie and All the Right Type. No programming though, which is disappointing.Health and Career Education: This was not taught until grade five. Various life skills like basic budgeting, nutrition, conflict resolution, etc. were covered.Fine Arts: For grades one and two, I was part of a fine arts program. So in addition to the subjects above, we had classes for art, choir, music, drama, and dance. I moved schools in grade three and as a result, I left the fine arts program. At the new school, you had art and music. In grade six and seven, you took band.French: This was not taught until grade five.In terms of grading, from grades one to three, you had "not yet meeting", "minimally meeting", "meeting/fully meeting", or "exceeding expectations" for your grades. Starting in grade four and beyond, you received a letter grade (A, B, C+, C, C-, I). Also, computer class was not a graded class.There wasn't much extracurricular offered by the school besides sports (track and field, basketball, and volleyball). Even then, sports were not available to students until grade five.Age 13-18: High School/Secondary School (Grade 8-12)I found the transition from elementary school to high school difficult socially. I went from a school of ~300 to a school of ~1300. I had a bit of trouble adjusting to the new environment. Anyways, school starts at 8:20 AM and ends at 2:48 PM. Learning becomes quite specialized in that you usually have one teacher for each subject. Depending on your school, you either follow a linear schedule or a semester schedule. If you're in a linear school, like me, you take eight classes together for the entire year and the year is divided into three terms. You have four blocks in one day and the two days alternate.Eg. Day 1: English, Math, Science, ASK.Day 2: Social Studies, Band, French, Physical Education.It would go Monday - Day 1, Tuesday - Day 2, Wednesday - Day 1 and so forth. The next week would start with a day 2.In a semester school, you take four classes for one half of the year and the other four classes for the second half of the year.From grades 8-10, you don't get much choice in what you subjects you can take. The material is still fairly easy, but you can choose to apply for Mathematics 8/9 or the Explorations Program, an incentive program. Some schools offer IB, mine doesn't. You can also continue French Immersion if you did that in elementary school. You may also do full credit summer school, but they only offer courses of the grade 10 level or higher. I ended up doing Math 8/9 and the Explorations Program.At the grade 11 level, some courses offer an honours option. The honours option is meant to prep you for AP level courses. At my school, they offer AP English Literature and Composition, AP Chemistry, AP Calculus AB, AP Physics B, AP Biology, AP French, and AP Mandarin.Also, there is a total of five government issued examinations that you have to take. English 10, Science 10, Foundations and Pre-Calculus Mathematics 10, Social Studies 11, and English 12. They are worth 20% of your final grade with the exception of English 12, which is worth 40%.Your schedule in grade eight will look something like this:- Humanities (English and Social Studies combined - you get two blocks of this)- Mathematics- Science- Physical Education- French: Compulsory for all grade eight students. After grade eight, you may choose to do a different language.- ASK (Applied Skills Knowledge): This is only in grade eight, where you take a different course each term. The purpose of this is to allow the students to have a preview of the three different applied skills departments. So you take foods/textiles for one term, then technology education (woodshop) for another term, and business/computer education.- Fine Arts: You may choose one from the following: concert band, drama, or art.For grades 9/10, it'll look like this:- English- Social Studies- Mathematics- Science- Physical Education- A Language (French, Japanese, Mandarin, Spanish, etc.)- An Applied Skill (Foods, Textiles, Woodshop, Drafting and Design, Information Technology, Business)- A Fine Art (Concert Band, Jazz Band, Musical Theater, Choir, Drama, Art, Music Composition)In grade eleven and twelve, you get much more freedom in course selection. In addition, you will begin to specialize in a certain area (arts, science, business, music, etc.). You are required to take some courses in grade eleven (english, a science, a math, a language, an applied skill/fine art, planning) in order to graduate. By grade twelve, the only course you are required to take is English and three(?) grade twelve level courses. The rest can be whatever you want.Many subjects begin to split into specialties. General science splits into Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. General Mathematics splits into Pre-Calculus, Foundations, and Apprenticeship and Workplace. Business Education splits into Marketing and Accounting. Social Studies splits into History, Geography, Comparative Civilization, and Law. There are a lot more that I haven't listed, so you can imagine that there is a lot to choose from. You essentially go from a very small pool of selection in grades 8-10, to an ocean of choices in grade 11 and 12. Despite there being a large variety of courses offered. My school seems to be missing some courses that I would like to take, such as: Psychology, Economics, Philosophy, German, Computer Science, and Politics/Government.As for extracurricular, there is a multitude of sports you can do (basketball, volleyball, badminton, swimming, track and field, rugby, soccer, table tennis, golf, etc.) as well as clubs (Student Council, Multicultural Club, Natural Club, Chess Club, Film Club, Reach for the Top, Model United Nations, etc.) I do Reach for the Top (the Canadian version of Quiz Bowl) as well as a few other clubs.Age 18+: Post-SecondaryI'm still in grade eleven, so I don't have much to offer in regards to this section. However, I have done a little research into post-secondary and universities/colleges here, look mostly at your grade twelve grades. Specifically, your first term grade twelve grades because that's when applications are open. From what I've heard, the schools here are pretty good.I believe that the schools on the West coast of Canada (UBC, SFU) take a more holistic approach in admissions than the schools in the East. By that, I mean they look for extracurriculars and personality traits in applications rather than just grades. To my knowledge, there isn't any testing that is required for post-secondary admission.All in all, I guess my education has been pretty good. With the exception of the giant conflict between the teachers and the government right now, everything has been enjoyable. If there's one thing I could change, it would probably be the required courses. I feel that there is a lot of stuff you miss out on because of the way the system is designed. You're more or less limited to whatever you wish to pursue in post-secondary. For example, I'm planning on pursuing science in post-secondary. As a result, I've taken mostly "rigorous" academic courses, leaving no room in my schedule for band or applied skills. Also, there are a few courses that aren't offered at my school, which disappoints me. On average, the teachers are fairly nice/good; there are a few who are exceptional and super awesome and then there are a few who are not so desirable. The students are, for the most part, pleasant.This was a really long read, kudos if you made it to the end. Also, thanks for reading! If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

That is a loaded question that will entice many different answers. I will be up front and say that I have a dog in this fight. But before you blow me off, consider my background.I have 45 years in the industry, 15 as a full-time realtor and 25 as a full-time appraiser. I served (briefly) on the Board of Directors of my local Board of Realtors. I've been around and survived the real estate wars...sometimes barely. I simply tell you all this so you know I've lived it.The biggest mistake I made in my career was not investing in the very industry in which I made my living. I started out doing that, in partnership with two friends, a painting contractor and a plumbing contractor, and we owned 12 doors by the time we were 30. Nice start. But back then, in small-town rural Ohio, being an investor usually meant owning duplexes or triplexes, and my role was being the landlord. I hated it. So, being young and dumb I said I'd never do that again. I liquidated and never did it again. Not smart and my biggest regret.I went through my career as a lone ranger, and happily so. I had a good career for the most part without a lot of stress, but the last 10 years or so were a bitch. I saw the ill-conceived lending policies, I wouldn't play ball with the lenders and I lost tons of business. I survived, but barely. It wasn't fun. I retired and moved to Florida 8 years ago, thinking I could invest down here because of my "experience". WRONG!! Apples and oranges to say the least. From small town white-bread middle America to urban, multi-cultural south Florida...talk about culture shock! I didn't know what I was going to do. I spent a bunch of money with Armando Montelongo. Good info but I went home after 3 days, woke up a couple days later and said "what now". I was lost, even with my experience. That business model (I had done sever others like it several years earlier) just doesn't work for most people. Most people have good intentions starting out but just can't do it on their own. Human nature I think.Now, to the meat of my story. I went to an investors luncheon one day. Came out and saw a car with a sign on it that said Real Estate Investor Seeking Trainee. I thought it was worth a call. Was it ever. It saved my ass. It was a different concept in real estate. I'm not saying it's for everyone, I'm not saying it works for everyone. But I am saying I've seen multiple kids begin acquiring real estate before they hit 20 and I've seen some become able to retire by 30. As for me, I came down here 8 years ago having sold my house in Ohio and having nothing else. No real estate at all. I now have partial ownership of 95 single-family houses, notes and mortgages, I've done a rehab, a couple flips, I've done several small private loans and I've earned some significant money through commissions by promoting this company.What I'm saying here is that real estate is the greatest wealth-building industry in the world. Many people would like to do it but are scared to...scared of making a mistake and losing money and not having a clue where to begin. This model that I found creates local communities of investors who learn together, work together, partner together, party some and mix work with play. That's called support, and its this support system that makes this model different from anything else out there. It takes most of the fear away. We're in a new Era. The traditional college education doesn't work for many people the way it used to. It is still educating to the Industrial Age, creating employees.Those days are numbered, as are the days of many brick-and-mortar businesses. We will have 30% unemployment one of these days. Jobs are disappearing and underpaid. Automation, technology, the net, robotics, now Artificial Intelligence are taking jobs away at a rapid pace. What will my grandkids do to make a living? Real estate, that's what! There are three necessities in life...water, food and shelter. We're in the shelter business.New models are needed. I'm convinced that this is the business and education model of the future. Online, available 24/7, taught by people who actually make their living doing what they teach, live classes available, MP3 and workbooks online and, with most packages the education, updates and all new classes are included for as long as the company exists. It is the best concept in real estate that I've seen in my long career. It really wasn't feasible 10 years or so ago because the technology wasn't available then. It is now. I have a degree in education and my wife was a 35 year classroom teacher, so I know good education when I see it. And this is about far more than fix-n-flip. It's about how to set up and structure a business, how to find the money to do deals, how money works, how to pay off installment debt in 1/3 of the time without increasing your payments, tax liens and deeds, buying notes and mortgages, how to find and buy apartment complexes, find people to manage them, how to manage those managers, commercial real estate and much more. This works. Everyone needs to have someone teach them things. Very few go it alone. Don't be fooled to think you can. You probably can't. You probably need help. Support. The "Guru's" don't offer that. I would counsel you to find something that does. Something in real estate.
