Inquiry - Potential and Kinetic Energy - By Katelyn

 

In class, we have been learning about an energy topic. We got to choose a type of energy. I choose to do Potential and Kinetic energy because I thought that it was going to be fun and because I like learning about Potential and Kinetic energy. We already learned about Potential and Kinetic energy last term/1st term for the year 2021 and I really enjoyed it. I enjoyed making this because I like to make things that can teach others with what I learned. This was difficult because I was stressed, I thought I was not going to finish it. But after an hour or so, I finished it. I made a speech and two microphones as well because one of the things that have potential and kinetic energy is a microphone, when you drop the mic after saying something epic or funny or if you just wanted to do that. 

Hope you enjoyed :)

Inquiry - Potential and Kinetic Energy - Podcast - Katelyn Podcast


In class, we have been learning about any type of energy. We got to choose our own type of energy. I choose to do two types, Potential and Kinetic energy. I choose to do Potential and Kinetic energy because I feel really intrested in that kind of stuff. We reaschearched for a while about this topic. When I gathered all my information, I made multiple of different things. One of the things I made was a podcast. I enjoyed making this podcast because I like to make videos about my learning. This was difficult because I thought that it was due Friday but it is due Monday because I was worring a lot but now I am fine. 
I hope you enjoyed :)

Octopuses/Octopie are sea animals they have 9 brains and 3 hearts! They have a habitat of many oceans in the world. Octopuses eat lots and lots of sea animals during their 1 to 2 years of living in the wild. They are very talented and smart creatures who can squeeze into small spaces.

Octopuses live in many different places under the ocean.
Octopuses live in kelp forests and coral reefs. Octopie finds to prefer warmer water meaning they live in the sunlight zone. They also live in tidal rock pools where they can easily disguise themselves as oddly-shaped rocks to capture prey. Octopie has no skeleton so they can squeeze into small and tight spaces.

Octopuses eat a lot of different sea creatures.
Octopuses feed on crabs, clams, snails, small fish and other octopuses. Octopuses are one of the most intelligent creatures in the ocean to catch their prey. Octopuses have venom and different octopus have different levels of toxicity which means they can kill they prey easily.

Octopie has a range of predators.
Here are some predators of Octopie. Seals, Fish Conger eels, sea otters, Moray eels, Dolphins, Many birds, Sperm Whales, Sharks. Octopuses have clever ways to defend themselves, they swim head first and in times of danger. They can expel out of water.

There are a lot of different species of octopuses all around the world.
There are 300 species of octopuses around the world. For example, Mimic octopus, coconut octopus, blanket octopus and California two-spot octopus. Some species of octopie are rarer than others different species live in different environments such as the pressure as you get deeper. Here are some other types of octopie! Blue ring octopus, giant pacific octopus, common octopus, Caribbean reef octopuses.

In conclusion, now you know that there are many different octopuses and their habitats are different from other animals. Their prey and predators are different from other sea creatures out there in the world.

How are you today? I hope you feel AWESOME! I feel AMAZING, thanks! (if you asked me.)
In class, we have been learning about octopuses. we researched about them and put them on a sheet of paper, then we put it in full sentences on a plan sheet. We had to write the Introduction and Conclusion by ourselves but the paragraphs were already written on the plan sheet. So it was easy, well only if you had a decent plan with big sentences and information. I enjoyed this activity because we already had the information on the planning sheet so all we had to do was copy from it (it was from our own words). I like doing information reports in general too! This activity was difficult because it was hard to see the paper because our whole group could not all look at it at the same time because we were the biggest group. We problem solved this by putting it up with a Chromebook case and some books, so it was alright.

Hope you enjoyed :) Have a good day!
See you next time !

Word of the week - Resilience



Hi everyone! Kia Ora! Bonjour!
Hope you are all having a fantastic day.
Every week at school we have a word that we have to research and learn about to increase our vocabulary. The word for this week is Resilience. Our Teacher wrote on the whiteboard that Resilience is going to be the word of the week because she said that our class needs to be it more. I enjoyed this activity because it was fun to try and move the texts around and it was just fun in general. This was difficult because it was hard to find a picture and trying to think of other antonyms and synonyms for Resilience.
Hope you enjoyed! :)
You should try this out too!
See you nex time!

Suffixes

 

                                      Hi, bonjour, Kia Ora! Hope you are having a good, lovely day!

Through the past week we have been learning about suffixies. We had to complete and fill out these different sheets to learn about what a suffix actually is because you can't teach and make something if you don't even know what it is. A suffix is a sound that you can add on a sentence like -est or -er to make it more of something. This was really fun to learn and I can understand how to write a few more words. We had to make a DLO about suffixes so that others can learn too! I choose to put a picture in there aswell because I thought that it would pop a bit more on my blog (the website you are on right now). I choose to do a picture with a small dog and a big dog. I wrote smallest and biggest on the dogs because those words have suffiexs. I enjoyed this atcivity because it was fun to write what are suffixes and look at the cute dogs. This was difficult because it was hard to find a picture to represent what suffixes are that I could use, but then I was like, why don't I have dogs to represent that. And that is the picture that I found on google to put there. 

Hope you enjoyed!
