Plates Tectonic

 Plate tectonic

We did an experiment to learn about plate tectonics and how the movement of the plates help shape New Zealand. I learned the names of the movements .These are them divergence, convergence and transform. Here are some photos from my experiment.

Science 1 me and my DNA

This term for science we are learning all about how the human body works and how special we all are. We are also trying to learn how to think and act more like a scientist. So, Miss Fletcher asked us to look at our faces in the mirror and write down notes about what we look like. The information had to be precise and clear so that when someone read it, it would help them find the person it described quickly. It was a bit like being a detective. You had to look and notice things carefully.


 Miss Fletcher said that what we look like depends on our mother and father. Making a new human is a bit like making a cake. You get some ingredients from your mum and some from your dad. The ingredients are called DNA. Everybody’s cake is different to everyone else’s.


 Miss Fletcher said the person with the most efficient description was Andrew J as he wrote: My hair is 1cm long all over. He is the only student in Team Moana with a haircut like that so he was able to be identified very easily. You can read my description below. The sentences highlighted in blue are the ones that Miss Fletcher said were not precise and clear enough. Twelve people said they could recognise me from my description.

Me and my DNA

I have pale skin, long dark brown and wavy hair.
I have pale pink lips and lots of red dots on my skin.
I have a little scar on my forehead. I have green eyes .

Steam

Me and Harry made a video about bugs here is our video.

Bug Hotel

We made a bug hotel so all the good bugs have a home.  We used bamboo, some flowers, hay and cardboard to make our hotel.  We hope that the hotel will become a home to good bugs so they can help our garden to grow. This will be good for garden to table.
