Eggs

Today's task was to write about a book that we had to read. So I have written some information about some birds and animals eggs.

All birds lay eggs. The ostrich lays the biggest eggs. The Kiwi lays a biggest egg comparison to its body. The humming bird lays the smallest eggs.  Lots of other animals like lizards and snakes lay eggs to.  Even dinosaurs laid eggs.

Frogs also lay eggs but when the eggs hatch they are a Tadpole. Once the tadpole has hatched the  Tadpole starts growing legs then they become a frog. They will lay eggs and have Tadpoles.  Frogs don't have claws or scaly skins. So that means they are called Amphibians.

Fish eggs either float up to the surface or sink to the bottom of the sea. Father fish guard their eggs until they think they have all hatched. Mother Seahorses lay their eggs in the Dads pouch. He keeps them there until they hatch.

Did you know that every one who lays an egg is an Oviparous?

What is it?

Today's Task was to describe something in your house so I have picked something.

It is remote control. It can fly inside. There are outdoor types of it as well. It is green and black. There is a battery in this object and in the remote. It has a box for it the battery to sit in. You can take the cage off and fly it like that but I don't. It needs charging for about 30 minutes.  It doesn't charge off the controler it charges off a black cable that lights up when finished. 

The remote has lights so does this object. For the outdoor one there is a limit on how high it can go. There is different speeds for this object. You can do flips with it. It has a cage so if you bang into walls it doesn't matter. It is really cool to see it bounce off the walls.

It has propellers that are green. The propellers help it lift of the ground. The propellers also help it go forwards or backwards. It also helps with spinning the object.

It is really small you could easily put it into your pocket. It's even smaller than the controller.  This object has cables that run through each propeller. the propellers are plastic like the cage.

The left controller is for it to spin and how high it goes and the right controller is for it to go left right forward and backwards.

what is the object?

Zoo keeper

Today's task was would you rather be a Zoo keeper or a spy. I would like to be a zookeeper. It would be cool to look after baby animals.

I would like to be a zookeeper because I love animals and it would be cool getting to look after endangered animals and almost extinct animals.  If I got to be a Zookeeper I would want to look after the giraffes and the monkeys.

I would like to look after the Giraffes because they are my favourite animal. the Giraffes are my favourite animals because the tall. I also enjoy how they use there purple tongues to wrap up leaves and munch them.  I would also like to save giraffes from getting extinct because that would be sad.


 I would like to be a Monkey keeper because Monkeys cheer people up. The Monkeys are also really playful and I like how they use their tails to hang. They can also be really cheeky like pretend they didn't have any food when they have had heaps but they wanted more.

Would you rather be a Zookeeper or a spy?

What's your favourite animal?

Board games

Today's task was to write about your favourite board game so I have taken some photos from different angles to show you how our monopoly game is going.

While we have been in lockdown we have been playing Monopoly about once a day which is really fun. We play it so my brothers can have a break from there studying.  I like playing monopoly because I like how you can debate for different places so you can make sets and build hotels and apartments.

I also like playing Triominoes. Triominoes is like dominoes but has three sides and you have to connect them together the person who gets rid of the triominoes first wins the person with them left has to count there numbers then someone writes the points down. The person with the highest triple puts it on the ground then its the other players turn. When you finish playing Triominoes the person with the least points wins. If you can't make a turn you have to pick a triomino up. If all of the Triominoes are gone you have to say pass and once everyone has said pass the game is over and you count the points up. Dad and I have just played Triominoes here is what our game looks like.

this is what I have picked up.

this is what our game looks like.

 

I have just beat Dad by 27 points.

Limericks poetry

Todays task was to write some Limericks poetry then find a piece of poetry that you like.  Here are some of my ones.


Bunny- Benjamin

A bunny can hop
I wonder if it will stop
It has a carrot for lunch
but I haven't got a bunch
I wonder if it will eat a crop

Crocodile- Benjamin

A crocodile is wearing a hat
It just ate a cat
I wonder if it will snap
It might sound like a clap
It sleeps on a mat

Hedgehog- Benjamin

A Hedgehog has a prickle
It came inside for a tickle
It drinks milk
It tastes like silk
It went home in a pickle


Here is a Poem I found in our Poetry book by Joy cowley.

Muddly, Muddly- Joy Cowley

Muddly, muddly,
Feed a lizard.
stuff an earwig
in its gizzard,
Cut its toenails
in a blizzard
Muddly, Muddly,
Feed a lizard

Muddly, Muddly,
Feed a spider.
Drop a dragonfly
inside her
Put her in your
hair, and hide her
Muddly, Muddly
Feed a spider.

Muddly, Muddly,
Feed a goat.
Shove a cabbage
down his throat.
Sit him in a
paper boat.
Muddly, muddly,
Feed a goat.

3 2 1 Blast of!!

Today's task was to write what you think the moon looks like and what it would be like to live on the moon.  In my imagination the moon is big and round.I can imagine that the moon has holes in it.  I think the moon spins like earth.

I am predicting living on the moon would be really hard because you can't actually touch the moon because of gravity so no one could live on the moon for more than a month.  Because you need to store all the food in your rocket and you would need a big rocket to store all the food.

One thing I would like to know is if you can see the earth from the moon. Like sometimes you can see the moon from earth at night. I also want to know how dark it is. What if it rains on the moon. I wonder if the rain falls the same way as it does on earth.Did you know that there's no day and night on the moon.

 It would be cool to live on the moon but you couldn't live there forever.

Do you think you would want to live on the moon?
