Brilliant Antarctica

Brilliant - Antarctica

Antarctica is a freezing, gigantic desert but it’s the   windiest and driest continent in the world too. It is the biggest, coldest and most awesome place to reconnoiter (explore). Antarctica would be a fun place visit but you would really not want to live there.

In Antarctica it looks super windy. Antarctica sounds incredibly stormy but they can not help us from blowing away. Antarctica feels like a really windy place to visit and that it is so icy. In Antarctica it is very weird that there are predators that are getting hurt and that they can die but some other species can die too, some can not die.

I feel amazing that you can do an observation (experiment) about the weather and climate at Antarctica.

I wish I could go to Antarctica to find out facts about the weather the most because… I would want to know the weather temperature every day.

We are learning about insects and I have done a brain storm about it and writ it on to a google slides.

My Audience Part 2

We are learning to create a positive digital footprint.

We often share personal information when we are online. The people we share with could be our friends and family or people we don't know. We need to make smart decisions about what personal information we share online.

Hide & Seek

4. Then take 4 steps to your right and face the door.

5. Next walk to the door and stop.

Stick Insects

We have been learning how to write a information report about stick insects. 

Can you see something in this photo?

Is it a stick with legs.

Oh no it is a insect.

It is a stick insect.

The maori word for a stick insect is ro.

Stick insects live in bushes and trees so that they can camouflage themselves when a predator comes.

Stick insects eat leaves.

Birds, wasps, and possums munch stick insects because they are predators but stick insects use Camouflage to keep safe.Camouflage means that they can look like plants and that they can not be seen by the predators.

This is the life cycle about a stick insect:

I think stick insects are awesome and, I love the camouflage is my favourite thing about, the stick insect.

Reflection

ANZAC

For the last two weeks we have been learning about ANZAC Day and why we remember the people who have risked their lives for our freedom and our way of life.

We read stories like... journals about the new Zealand's war.

We had a special visitor who was Connie's nana and she showed us about her great uncle's stuff.

We watched some videos about... the gallipoli song about the sons of gallipoli.

Some of the activities we did was... a word find.
