Sharks

This morning we used keywords in a text to help us find out and be able to talk about facts about sharks. We used our ideas to write a collaborative summary of these facts.Sharks are carnivores, that means they only eat meat like sea lions, dolphins or smaller sea creatures like crabs. It is true that sharks have attacked humans but not many people know that only 12 species of sharks have ever done this. A baby shark is called a pup and a group of sharks are known as shivers, shoals or schools. You can find sharks in every ocean but they won’t be staying still because they have to keep the water moving over their gills to stay alive.

Avalon Camp Dairy



This week l created a digital version of my camp dairy. l wrote about the four days that we had on camp. I remembered to use the ideas that l already had in my camp dairy and to think carefully about words and punctuation. I first started off with day 1 this day was awesome because we went on a hike up the Hunua Ranges. We saw different kinds of tree's, birds and bushes when we were on the walk. Fun fact about a Fantail is that their tail looks like a fan that's why they are called a fantail. The next day we went kayaking, Raft building and archery. l liked these activity a lot because they were water activity. My favourite one was kayaking because l liked going around in the water. My favourite activity was Abseiling because l liked coming down from the rocks.
