Global Warming

For Reading and Writing had to make a presentation about Global Warming
We had to answer the questions "What is Global Warming, What is being affected by Global Warming and What can we do to make a difference.
I hope you like mine.

Volacanoes

   

For reading we had to make slide about volcanoes. I learnt that  The word "volcano" comes from the Roman name 'Vulcan' - the Roman god of fire.
Here is mine I hope you like it.

Remember Writing about Camp

Remember

Remember when we did archery as we let go of the bow as the bow hits the board and sounds as if it was a bullet.

Remember as we sit on the table and the food in front of us just screaming our names. 

Remember doing the Burma trail as we hear people screaming as people shout BOO at them ,remember when my teacher scared you and you jumped as if you were a bunny that saw a ghost.

Remember when we did rock climbing and we tried again and again but you did still didn’t make it to the top. And everyone's were sweating as if they did a 500 meter run.

Remember doing the fast flying fox and you were so scared but you did it anyway and we all heard the loud bang as if it was a bomb.

This camp was the best one I ever went to. (It was actually the first one)


This week we had to write about camp.
I made a remember writing.

Market Day

I could smell the sweet cotton candy as I walk past.

I could taste the sour blueberry sherbet as I pop it into my mouth.

I could hear the loud rain as it crashes to the ground with a loud splat.

I could feel the smooth soap I rubbed it against my fingers.

I could see colourful signs as I walk past them.

I could smell the strawberry lip balm as I open the lid.

I could taste the delicious chocolate as I put it into my mouth.

I could hear laughter in the crowd of kids.

I could I could hear the soft cotton candy in my hands.

 I could see people going crazy from the cotton candy and sherbet.

I could hear coins going ting, ting, ting in people's pockets.

I could feel the bumpy coins in my pocket as I get it from my pocket.

I could see the creative bookmarks besides our table.

I could feel the soft pillows on the table.

What a day!

Reading/Writing 1820s Southland Tsunami

\ For reading we had to do a information report on a disaster that has happened. I did mine on the Southland Tsunami. Kate

The Napier Earthquake

  The Napier Earthquake

In 1931 the Napier Earthquake happened ,the Napier Earthquake is also known as the Hawke’s Bay Earthquake. It happened at 10:47 3rd of February 1931 . The earthquake killed

256 and thousands injured. The Magnitude was 7.8 Meters, the Depth was 20 km (12 mi) and Epicenter was 39.3°S 177.0°E. But there was no tsunami. Only a few buildings in the central Napier area survived. Some withstood the earthquake only to be gutted by fire. Trapped people had to be left to burn as people were unable to free them in time. By Wednesday morning, the main fires were out, but the ruins still smoldered for several days. There were 525 aftershocks recorded in the following two weeks, with 597 being recorded by the end of February. The main shock could be felt in most of New Zealand. It remains New Zealand's deadliest natural disaster.       

For reading and writing we had to make a doc about a natural disaster that has happened in New Zealand.

I did mine on the Napier Earthquake.

Earthquake

                                  Earthquake 

A Earthquake a sudden violent shaking of the ground, typically causing great destruction, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.

Most earthquake deaths are caused by the collapse of structures and the construction practices play a tremendous role in the death toll of an earthquake. Although probably the most important, direct shaking effects are not the only hazard associated with earthquakes, other effects such as landslides, liquefaction, and tsunamis have also played important part in destruction produced by earthquakes.

The land would be in bad damage if the earthquake was big. The place would have

Tall buildings fallen down and houses collapsed to the ground.

When you are home a there's an earthquake you have to go under the nearest table and Hold onto a leg and go into a ball position and protect you head. When you are in the car you are driving pull over to the side of the road, stop, and set the parking brake. Avoid overpasses, bridges, power lines, signs and other hazards. Stay inside the vehicle until the shaking is over. When you are at the beach you have to stop and go into a ball position and protect your head.

                                               

                                                    Facts

• Earthquakes involve the powerful movement of rocks in the Earth’s crust. The rapid release of energy creates seismic waves that travel through the earth.
• Scientists use the different speeds of seismic waves to locate the epicentre (the point on the surface directly above where the earthquake originated) of earthquakes.
• Seismometers are used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes. You are unlikely to feel a magnitude 3 earthquake but a magnitude 6 earthquake could potentially cause large damage.
• The damage caused by earthquakes also depends on their depth and fault type.
• The earthquake that hit the Tohoku region of Japan on March 11, 2011, had a magnitude of 9.0 and killed over 15000 people.
• The destruction caused by the Tohoku earthquake was made much worse by powerful tsunamis that were triggered due to the earthquake’s epicentre being located offshore.
• The 2004 earthquake that occurred in the Indian Ocean near Sumatra, Indonesia triggered a series of tsunamis that killed over 200000 people in 14 countries.
• The February 2011 earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand followed nearly 6 months after a magnitude 7.1 earthquake shook the region. The earthquake killed 181 people and significantly damaged the central city. The economic damage caused by the earthquake and aftershocks is estimated to be around $15 billion (NZ$).
• An earthquake that hit Haiti in January 2010 with a magnitude of 7.0 killed over 200000 people according to Haitian sources.
• The most powerful earthquake ever recorded on Earth was in Valdivia, Chile. Occurring in 1960, it had a magnitude of 9.5.
• It is important in earthquake prone countries such as Japan to build houses and buildings that react well to earthquakes. Good engineering practises can help stop buildings collapsing under the stress of large earthquakes.

For Reading and Writing we had to make a doc about a disaster.

Quality Blog Comment

 For Cybersmart we had to write about what makes a Quality Blog Comment. My favourite part was making a video note. The thing that I found challenging was trying to find what comments had in common but I found out that most comments had a greeting and they put their name at the bottom.

Suddenly we saw Valerie Adams. Chloe was so excited that she even asked me to slap her in the the the face so I did then she asked me if she was dreaming and I said “Nope”Then faster then you can say a bunch of munchy crunchy carrots she went of to Valerie Adams saying “ can I have your autograph and can we take a selfie.” ”Okay Chloe back here!” I said.” Sorry I’m just so excited I can eat this grass with dirt” and she starts to eat it “Numm, numm it’s actually really yum the dirt tastes like chocolate and the grass tastes like icing,yummy in my tummy someone it’s so yummy.”Try some,” said Chloe. ”Um okay” I said and I did it was actually pretty yum. ”Wait did I just eat grass and dirt that was actually yum,where are we”? Umm according to my calculations we are in-Then I butted in,” That is my line Chloe so”, I said “according to my calculations we are in… CANDY LAND where they say eat all you can to make your dreams come true.””When in the Philippines it’s, Do all you can to make your dreams come true, anyway” I said.Then suddenly there were giant marshmallows came out and started hitting as with there weapons that they have I was like “ohhh that's so cute”.Then out of nowhere my dog Charlie started eating the giant marshmallows it was so cute and sad at the same time. But in the end Charlie ate all the giant marshmallows. Charlie was so round and chubby like a round gummy bear that ate to much candy so cute and round. Okay anyway Charlie was so heavy me and Chloe had to take turns carrying Charlie. Chloe, me Chloe, me Chloe, me, okay you get it now don’t you. We were walking and then suddenly we were in the desert we found a pyramid that was made out of cake.We went there to rest. In the morning we started walking further and further then suddenly we felt the sand under our feet sinking the sand was made out of sherbet then we fell into a underground cave with had a river made out of chocolate and rocks made out of maltesers.And in the river there were chocolate fishe’s.The chocolate river was leading to a waterfall made out of hot cocoa the waterfall was leading to a cave.But suddenly some tough looking gummy bears came out from the cave but me and Chloe didn’t see them, They went to a shortcut to the chocolate river where me and Chloe were they went up to Chloe and said we want to challenge the black sticks, “okay” we both said at the same time. The match was good and of course the Black Sticks won.We kept on walking and walking till it was night time. We got woken up by a rustle in the bush, I went to check and when I came back I was with chocolate bunnies. I told everyone that the chocolate bunnies said that they will make us a teleporter so we can go back to Rio to see (or for the Olympians they will play in the games) the game. 1 hour later after they built the teleporter It is is finally done the chocolate bunnies said press this button think of the place you want to go to then you are there said the chocolate bunnies. They went to New Zealand then Germany then Spain then FINALLY Rio. The game started and guess what New Zealand won.

Demon Dentist

                                       


 For reading we had to choose a book from the library.  I did mine on the book Demon Dentist.  Miss Hudson made a slide and it had activities on it.We had to make a prediction and choose 6 activities but one had to be vocabulary activity. The thing I found challenging was finding the describing words because I had to search the whole book.  I liked making the dairy, drawing my favorite character and making a new ending 
Here is mine I hope you like it.
