Dear Chris Wood

Thank you Mr Wood for all the arrangements. Also that you gave up your time just to get all the right supplies.  Thank you for all the food that you gave us from your big store.  Also thank you for all the other times that you donated to us.

The best part of it was making it so I think you achieved your goal of persuading us to make our own lunch. All the things that you gave us was well appreciated. The ingredients that you gave us was very delicious and the  vegetables were so juicy that i thought you got them fresh from the farm.

Since you persuaded me I really enjoyed making my lunch this morning and I knew what foods make it taste better.  I will be looking forward to the next tuesday.  I hope you give us different delicious ingredients.

Thank you

Tamim

  

My speech about Wildlife and animals.

Hi my name is Tamin.

Today I will be talking about conservation. The meaning of this word is protecting natural wildlife/Plants. We should conserve the wildlife and plants because this planet akshully first belonged to the animals. Some trust us and love us so we should give something back.

There are many wonderful animals and plants in this planet.  But there are some that are near extinction. For example the Moa I know that if you saw one of these big magnificent flightless birds you would want to keep it as a pet.  

To conserve you must keep and animal or plant safe in a safe pest free area.

One of the benefits we get from conserving is that your grand kids would be able to see the animals that are all kinds of sizes and heights. The Kiwi that is endemic to New Zealand is also flightless. This small bird will be extinct in 70 years if we do not take action.

So please don’t litter or kill any animals.  Because one day you will regret it.

Facts about crabs

Crabs are really amazing. There are many amazing facts about crabs.

One of the facts are that they cannot walk forward.  They can only walk sidewards. They also have really sharp claws. Their claws are used to protect them from predators, food and some use them to dig holes in the sand. Crabs are usually found in fresh water and on land. Crabs are eaten a lot in the asian countries like Japan, china and Indonesia. Crabs meat are made from the meat that you have on your ear.

Food pyramid

The food pyramid

The food pyramid tells us what foods we should eat.  The foods on the bottom are the everyday foods. The foods on the top are good to eat once a week or if you want to be more healthy eat once a month.  

The bread, salad and wheat products are the most important food because they are packed full of vitamins.

You should eat a fruits and vegetables 5 to 4 times a week.  The vegetables are lettuce, tomato, capsicum and onions.  They are the second most important because they have protein in them.

The second to last one is  good because they have fat in them and we need fat to live. The fatty foods are Chicken, yoghurt, cheese and nuts.

Now these foods are the worst we must use them  sparingly.  They have loads of fat.  These foods that we should not eat a lot is cake, ice cream and lollies.

A report on seagulls

I am learning about seagulls.

The seagull can swim.  It can swim really fast  because it has webbed feet.  When it goes in water it swishes its webbed feet and moves forward.   

So the seagull can swim but it can also go underwater for about one minute or if it is just learning it can do it for thirty seconds.

A seagull cannot do anything without its wings. It can fly  1,000 km a day. It uses these to get to its nests. To get food for their babies and for themselves it also uses its wings.  

The beaks are sharp and can cut you.  When they get food they hold it with their  feet and tears it with its beak.  

As you can see here it has a good view of all the body parts that we were talking about.

Notice the sharp beak and the large wing span.

Thanks Duffy!

Germs?

What are germs? 
Germs are microscopic bacteria that can cause a disease. 

Do you get good germs?  
Yes you get good germs that can heal you.They can prevent disease. These are good germs They are really really small.

Do you get bad germs?
Yes, these are bad germs that can cause diseases like skin cancer.  



There a lot of germs.  

But there are good and bad germs.  The bad germs can cause disease such as skin cancer.  The good germs can heal  you. Some good germs can heal you if you have a cut or bruise.  You cannot see germs but you have to get a microscope and look to see germs.  

Evan comes to our school

Today A man from the bank called Evan came to our school.  He was from ASB bank.  Evan was talking about how to save money and how to spend it.  

We can earn money by working at a shop, neighbourhood, and selling stuff.  When you join a bank you get interest in the amount of money you save.  Evan told us about three different stories in his life One was about his cheeky mum who always tricked him.  The others were about his friends who saved money and one that didn't save money.  But the most best one was about his friend Maggie who liked animals and walked dogs also she  washed them.  But first she must learn the rules.  

When Evan was little he wanted a game boy that was 260 dollars.  Evan saved money and got Interest for saving money.  He saved 5 dollars and spent 10 dollars.  At the end of the year he saved up 279 dollars.  He bought the game boy and had a little to buy a Christmas present for his mum.

What causes day and night

In our class we are learning what causes day and night. Day and night is caused because of the spinning of the earth. The sun is a ball of gas. When the earth turns one side of the earth is having night and one side of the earth is discovering day. One side of the earth that is not facing the sun is having night and the other side is having day.  Also the earth has a 22 and a half degree tilt.  There are one moon and one sun in our galaxy but the other planets have more than one.  It takes twenty four hours to turn around the earth.   It is twelve hours of day and twelve hours of night.  But when it is winter it takes eight hours to get dark and in summer it takes.
