Time of my life

Time Of My Life

Hi everyone, this is a slide about my daily routine for school and the times it happens.



I made this using Google Slides. 

My least favourite thing about my day is waking up in the morning when I'm tired.

My favourite part about my day is the feeling after showering because I feel nice and fresh.

What is your favourite part of your day?

Orana Park Trip

Orana Park

Yesterday, the whole Takitini hub went to Orana Park and it was all free!

We visited the Tasmanian devils and we learned that they are nocturnal. An interesting fact was that they can give animals a type of infectious cancer through its bite. A Tasmanian devil's life expectancy is about 6-7 years old. Pumba is 8 years old and he is the oldest Tasmanian devil.

We saw a tiger and Elizabeth the teacher said that tigers are endangered and there are only a few thousand wild tigers left.

We visited the lions, there were five lions in the cage and they feed them many kinds of meat. The male lions don't have any manes because they don't have the hormone to grow a mane and all of the energy to grow a mane just goes into the growth.

When we visited the spider monkeys, Elizabeth said that the difference between apes and monkeys are that monkeys have a tail and they have longer legs and shorter arms. Apes don't have tails, longer arms, and shorter legs.

When we were walking over to the kea, a vehicle was passing by and a bird was making noises at the vehicle. Keas had a bad reputation and one time the government put a bounty on them because they were such a pest. They are also an intelligent bird with an IQ of a 3 or 4-year-old.


After lunch, we went to the farm place, we saw chickens, llamas, pigs a peacock that was spreading its feathers and that bird that was making that weird sound.

I also learned that white rhinos are named white rhino because there is a word in Afrikaans that sounds like white and it actually means wide. Rhinos are getting hunted for their horns.

An animal called the waterbuck needs to drink water every single day. Animals followed the waterbuck because they always knew how to get water.

When we visited the cheetahs, we couldn't find any and the whole class had to look for them. After a while, we were on our way to the gorillas and we saw the cheetahs! They were far away and they were near the pole. I really wanted to see them run, but they didn't run.

When we went over to the gorillas, they were resting and they acted like they were humans. Did you know that they share 98% of human DNA with us, humans?

We walked over to the orangutans on the other side. One was covered in a sheet and the other orangutan looked like it was hugging the other orangutan. Meanwhile, the other orangutan was eating grass.

The trip was fun, I wish I could go back again.

All About Chickens

Chickens
In literacy, we made information reports about an animal and I wrote one about chickens. Chickens are an interesting animal if you know more about them. Here is an information report about the animal.




I made this using google slides and I found the information from various websites.

I hope you learnt something about this slide and tell me what you learnt about this post in the comments!

Classroom Environment

Values Week 7

For values this week, we are looking after the classroom environment. I've already made a version of this before so I've scored the class, the hub, and myself.



I've made this using Google Drawings.

Do you think this is accurate? What do you rate yourself, the class and the hub?

Math Work Week 7

This is my math for this week, it is Rounding and Compensating. Here is a Google drawing to explain the strategy.

I got the video from the Takitini site. I like this strategy because it makes the equation easier by splitting it.
