Octopus writing

 Have you ever wondered about the wonders of an Octopus?About what happens when they cahnge colour?Or even how many legs they have? Well today I am going to give you a bit of info about these magnefisent creatures so lets zoom in!  

The octopuses diet normally depend on the breed but most octopus eat fish, clams, snails,and crabs.An octopus can change its apperance judging the colour around them, that transformation is called camoflage. An octopus has 8 tenticales and each tenticale has a brain so one teticale can draw while the others can bake or walk or conduct an ochresta.Octopus are found all around the world but they mostly prefer warmer climits like nearer the equator they hide in small holes in reefs.

Hope now you know slightly more about the octopus and that you know that each tenticale has a brain.Bye Daisy

fishing tractor

 

hi!This week we have been learning about oil spills and we had to make a machine that can get rid of all the oil in the ocean.So i made the fishing tractor.the fishing tractor is a made up device that could just possibly get all the oil out of the ocean.I think it was really fun making up a device because it meant i had a chance to spreed my imagination as far as it can do.what i reckon i could work on is make it more cooler.Hope you enjoy.

pelorus jack

 

Today we are doing ANZAC reading. I did a drawing about pelorus jack, a dog that sailed the HMS New Zealand. I chose to do this because it sounds awesome that a dog can sail on a ship for that long. what I learnt, and thought was wicked, was that when over 1 thousand people died a little dog survived.

the tree of life

Elise held hope in her outstretched hands. Kneeling gently on the ground, she prepared herself for what she knew she must do. The cool water trickled through her muddy fingers, and the soft, black earth felt comfortingly warm on her palmsPlanting the tree of life would mean a new beginning. The opportunities were endless…Feeling the excitement course through her quivering body, she lowered the tree of life into the small hole she had prepared. It was time…6 months later her town was made. elise was now a hero. the tree was now home to all, animals, people and more. but it needed water some time and she was the one to do it, elise walked up to the stadium, "everybody" she shouted "I am leaving to find water for the tree" "nooooooo" everyone yelled. elise sighed"I'm afraid yes in the meantime you will protect the tree" and then elise walked off . 5 minutes later she emerged ready for what life throws at her.then a great crash went behind her she slowly looked behind her and she saw ........ THE TREE! it has fallen down !!!!! sowly the world was cracking shorley its the end of the world.

a trip in kaikoura

 It has been an 8-hour drive and we only stopped once. "hey dad, how long till we're there ?" I must have said that a million times." look daisy look!"Mabel shouted, and there right before my eyes were the dazzling blue sea, it was shining most invitingly. I finally felt excited, a bubble burst in my stomach. we were singing songs till we got to our campsite, the campsite was as packed as a circus, and there was even a pool! later we went down to the beach .while mum and dad were talking, Mabel and Xavier buried me in the stones. half an hour later I got up and felt something as small as a pea I my ear .it was a pebble !" mum dad I have a stone in my ear "I screamed .5 minutes later I was waiting in the hospital with dad. I noted how clean it was.it was as clean as a highly polished rock and as sparkling as a pua shell. on the first attempt, the doctors only managed to move it a little, then squirted water in my ear.it felt as though the Niagra falls were in my head! then we had to wait 2 hours then another doctor came and got it out.YAY. we went to the campsite and had chips for dinner it felt like a warm fire in my tummy. the next day dad told us he had a surprise for us.5 mins later he said it was sea kayaking I was so excited. half an hour later we were in our wetsuits with a kayak in our hands .the lady told us to look out for seals and little blue penguins. and then we were off! I asked dad if I can jump in but nope not now. we were kayaking for half an hour till we saw it, a little blue penguin bobbing beside us in the water .and before I knew it was gone. and that was surely the best day ever

Trees

Trees

By Daisy and Lotte

Without trees, we wouldn’t be able to survive because trees not only filter carbon dioxide they also make oxygen our bodies need this because we need oxygen to breathe in to pump out all the carbon dioxide in our bodies.

                                 

 Trees provide us a lot of supplies from their wood without trees we wouldn't have the number of things we have now, trees (coral) are even needed underwater, they do the same as job as the ones on land do except it’s in water, eg. provide shelter and supplies and filter the water as trees do in the air.

Trees provide birds with a place to build nests and eat food. Some trees give us the food we need to survive with e.g mangoes, apples, oranges, pears e.t.c Some trees have hollow basins that are filled with water. Some trees sap can be made into medicine. 

Trees and plants are also a HUGE part of ecosystems because they are producers taking them out would destroy the world they also take a big part of the biodiversity web ( it means a tangle of food chains and species)  for example if you introduce a new species to remove trees from an ecosystem the whole ecosystem would slowly die because they would not have enough food and they have increasing

ocean ecosystem

guess the food
