Water poster

today we learned about why is water important and learning facts about water. 

Why is water so important?

Why is water so important for us? I will tell you why, You can spend 1 month without food, but only 1 week without water, water is very important because everything can't survive without water. 

Even plants need water, Nature needs water, We need water, we are also kinda made out of water, (Only some body parts are made or have water). Everything on earth is water, without water I don't think we would be here. 

Earth also needs water, some countries don't even have water, they have to walk miles just to get water to survive. Water can also control temperature. For example, let's say you're sick and you're getting heated up, your parents have to give you water to cool down so you can feel better.

in the olden days they didn't have any  water, they had to drink dirty water which was not healthy, but now we have machines that can clean in the dirty disgusting water. 

So they had to try hard and figure out how to clean the dirty water, some people died because they needed clean water, some people died because they never had water.

Those are my 3 reasons and facts :)

In room 7 we learned why water is so important, I wrote 3 reasons and facts (there are more facts) , we also did a poster of saving water and nature, please enjoy and give feedback if I need some.

Charting Captain James Cook

On August 1768, Captain James Cook, he had two sets of instructions, the first instructions was too travel to Tahiti and observe the transits of Venus, which would be an event that would be watched by everybody, even scientists! all around the world, Captain James Cook, second sets of instructions was "Secret", that not many people knew, after his transit, his ship, The Endeavour was heading to south. 
it was hoped Cook would find the "Great Continent". people thought that landmass must exist to the "balance" out the world, the time had come to actually put in the map. 
After James Cook observed the transit, Cook has finally set sail to the south, He no idea of what he could find there,three months later, it was October 6th 1769, a twelve year old Salior named Nicholas young has spotted the land, The Endeavour Sailed Turanganui-a-kiwa-near-present-day Gisborne - two days later. 

Just like earth, Venus travels around the sun, but it follows a closer orbit. Sometimes the planets path takes it between Earth and the sun, when it happens, we can see Venus move across the suns face. This is called a transit, Venus transits are very rare, but predictable, but they can occur. I think charting was important to Captain James Cook, but not only Charting was important to James Cook, but also math's was, Math's was important to Captain James Cook because, math's can help you if your stuck, example, lets say I get lost in a forest right? I use my math's inside me, the reason why is because I could redo my steps, or use a compass, there are so many ways to use maths.  



                                                     
Today I learned about Captain James Cook, and about his history, we also learned how to write an essay! we learned about longitude and latitude, I had so much fun writing this.

Hello bloggers! Today I and room 7 have been learning new words in a different language! but to find out what the words men't, we had to read a book to find out! it was hard to make my words make sense and putting it into a sentence, but the fun easy part was copying and pasting it, and I also had a lot of fun doing this project, and people helping me! enjoy my DLO!  

Have you ever travel to a marae? 

My home lock-down.

Hi bloggers! yesterday with the avatar I had a lot of fun! so I had to do it again.... But this is a copy of my house, The hard part was finding things that I have in my house, but I had fun decorating :D, but I enjoyed this project a lot..... ENJOY!

My lock-down paradise story!

Hello! Today I have been writing a story about my latest post! it is my lock-down paradise story... it is about what I like about my paradise and why! enjoy.

If you have been seeing my latest blog, and have been keeping up, I have posted an avatar, of where my lock-down paradise would be, my picture has a beautiful tropical trees and I love swimming and I love nature, but not so much insects, but I love the summer, and I love inventing stuff what I love about inventing is you can craft things nobody have crafted before, and you can also bring old stuff you loved back in the day BETTER! That's what I love doing bringing stuff back to life! Not like the bad stuff, like bringing from the dead- but like lets say old shoes are what people hate ( no offence to the people who love old shoes it's just for an example ) and let's say you turn them into cool new nike shoes! That's what I mean, I like inventing, but I don't like paper, some people don't know that paper is made from trees... so I don't like to use paper, another thing I like about nature is you get to learn about plants, and it is easy you don't need to find food! And you make stuff AWAY from the INTERNET and you could make stuff, and it is easy to find food! Like fish, and plant fruits! That's why I chose my lock-down paradise. it is neat, and you can stay away from the internet and explore for a little bit!.

What I enjoyed about this project is that it is like a continue of your story like in a movie, you think the movie is over BUT IT IS NOT! but the hard part is to include more things and think about ideas about it, but I like that it is fun!.

What is your fun lock-down paradise??
