Information

The desert is humid place which has lots of animals and  take about ⅕ of the world. The cold desert is -40°C. Adaptation is a complex process. Adaptation means that to change. Adaptation can take thousands or millions of years to master.

The desert has very little water and it barely rains so it is very very valuable! In the day the cold desert is about -40°C and at night it is about -60°C. Antarctica is the biggest desert in the world! (cold desert)

The Penguin is a arctic animal that has a cold habitat. The  penguins actually push one penguin down to see if it dangerous or not. The penguin huddle in a big group so it gets warm. The penguins eat krill and fish.

To adapt animals it is very difficult.  It it hard to adapt in Antarctica but the penguins did the unbelievable they did. The antarctic is a hard place to adapt, why? Because the Arctic is really cold habitat to live.

Overall the desert is a cold place with little heat. The penguin adapt to the extreme cold temperature and find there food by swimming.

They adapt by their blubber. They also can go 15 mph under water.

To summarize the desert is a strange place. Do you think it is a strange place?

fairy tale

Three Little Wolves And The Pig

One dark stormy night 2 lightning bolts hit the three pigs and the wolf. The wolf splitted and the pigs merged. The weather stopped it was time when the pig got his revenge to the wolves.

One day the wolves found this black purple portal thing . “whats is this?” questioned the wolf charly. “I don’t know,” replied wolf charlie. “I am going threw this thing,” shouted wolf charlee. “Wait for us said Charly and Charlie at the same time. When the got threw charly said, “what’s wrong with you?” “No what’s wrong with you charly?” asked charlie and charlee. “ I think we are in a Minecraft world!” Screamed charly.

“I’m mining,” said carlie. “Than I will explore. Answered charly. “I guess I will get wood then,” replied charlee.Then they made a 3 story mansion.

Why strategies are used in math.

Why strategies are used in math.

I need help with some of the math questions! What can I do? Ask a friend? I can’t. It’s independent work. I know, I need a strategy that can help me! After using this strategy, all the maths questions became so much easier and it seems like these strategies can help me forever!

How are math strategies used? Math strategies are used to solve or simplify questions when solving maths questions. This is widely used by other peoples like mathematicians, teachers and even scientists. When I grow up I want to be a mathematician!

Strategy time.question: 9 divided 117. What should I use? I will use reversibility. But what kind of strategy is reversibility? It’s a strategy that reverses division into what? What do  you think it might be? If you guessed multipacation you are correct! So we switched it. Then it will be 9 multiplied by ? =117 so we times the a place value number so I chose 10 because 20 wouldn’t make sense. Because multiplied by 20 is 180. So 9 multiplied 10 is 90 then minus 90 with 117. It is 27 now find the answer for it. It is 3. Then add the 2 multiplied numbers which are 10 and 3. It is 13, that is reversibility. So with my strategies I now know that 9 divided by 117 is 17

Subtraction is so hard, what is 509-300? I don’t know, I know I need a strategy again. But what strategy this time? Hmm  I know this strategy will be rounding and compensating. So round the 509 into 510. then do 510-300=210. Now we need to -1 because we added one from the start. That is rounding and compensating.  So the answer is 202 (whisper) it is actually 209

Now you should've learnt lots of things about math from me. Now from my senses you will probably, probably come  across a really hard question you should use a strategy.

why people you travel to New Zealand

I think people should travel to NZ

I Think people should travel to New Zealand.

• Family
• Friends
• Strangers
• People who do not live in New Zealand

-Because it is really peaceful

- Because it has a sky tower

- We should represent the Maori

- We remember and celebrate and represent the people in the war

- We have lot’s of good  hospitals and have the correct medication for you.

1. ANZAC day is a  day where we remember people from the war.
2. We wear poppies and eat ANZAC biscuits and sing the national anthem.
3. When you go to the sky tower you have a good view of the city.
4. In NZ we have lot’s of good places for good views like the sky tower.

1. Because the weather heavy rain/floods rain is good and feeds the plants.
2. Rent hotels are too expensive you can go to a motel,stay with family and friends.
3. A Lot of people do bad things you can call police.
4. The food is really expensive. The food is still delicious.
5. The stationary is really expensive you can get the second

     Stationary at the two dollar shop

Finally we believe people should travel to New Zealand because NZ is a peaceful place because there is no wars. In NZ we represent Maori because we were the first find NZ This is why people should travel to NZ

Dear family.

My first day of NZ was strange and lonely but I found a place to live. It is friendship street 32.It was colder than I thought. It was a nice place. I was surprised from the different languages they spoke. I lived in friendship street 32 because that is where my sister lived. I went for a ride in a car and I was amazed. After I ate something which was delicious,Then I went to Auckland Museum.When we got  back it was night time,so we went home and we slept for the night.
