There might be some un-coloured spots on mine, but i cant currently fix those.        

Here is my work   ( and the artists work )

Week 10 Writing work

 This Week for writing, instead of describing an image or writing a narrative, The whole class had to create a google slide and (like the last week of any term this year) had to get an amount of points (they brought that system back).

I managed to get 12 points, which was the amount needed, although some people got over 60. The tasks were easy, but this week i was really laid-back, and because of that, i didn't produce as much work as i could of. 

The easiest task was the information report about japan, because i know lots about japan already, the recipe writing was also easy  (because its toast)

This week there was two Create tasks. My first one was hard because I've only used google slides, but for task one i couldn't use them in any circumstance.
It Took me most of the week to figure out the controls of the site i had to use for my first create task.
The second Task was relativity Easy since i used Google Drawings, Which i think is easy.
Both of the Tasks had to be put on the same blog-post, So here is my work

Term Three Week Six - Reading Create Task

Hello,
This week the create task was to identify the moral of the story chosen and create a new scenario using the moral,
(it's similar to last weeks but i forgot to post it )
The task was easy, and i completed it in a day or two, but i forgot to post it. I used making fire for my moral because it was a creative idea and it was the simplest i could think of.

Most parts were easy, nothing was difficult but some parts took more time, This weeks create tasks involved visualising one of the main parts of the story, then creating or tracing the on a google drawing (or just drawing it in real life), Witch i'm not good at.
But overall it was simple.

Plastic Free Chalenge - Create Task


This week, The book choices were the same and still about environment 
The problem in this book is the plastic pollution. 



Question 1. How did this problem occur?            
It occurred by the thrown away plastic.

Question 2. Is this an easy problem to solve?             
It won't be easy to solve because so much of it has been thrown away, there's even an island
made out of plastic, The island is six times the size of new zealand

Question 3. How can you help this situation?             
You can help this situation by not using as much plastic,
recycling old plastic and buying less plastic covered food 



The effects of plastic being poured into the ocean:
It creates “dead zones”  meaning nothing can survive there
60 to 95 percent of the ocean is covered by plastic meaning that most marine mammals would eat the
plastic and die
Fish, Seabirds and Sea Turtles can become entangled in the plastic
If a seabird eats plastic it takes up room in their stomachs, which sometimes can lead to starvation. 
It kills upto 1 million seabirds a year 



Simple ways to stop usage of plastic:
Reduce your single use plastics
Recycle properly
Avoid products that use micro beads 
Support organisations addressing the plastic pollution 



Random facts about the plastic pollution:
5.25 trillion micro plastics are in the ocean
There is at least 269,000 tonnes of plastic is in the ocean 
Plastic is 60 to 95 percent of marine debris 
Everyday at least 8 million pieces of plastic find their way into the ocean
It is believed that more than 90 percent of birds and fish have plastic particles in their stomachs 

Plastic pollution was first discovered in the late 1960's and early 1970's by scientists carrying out
plankton

Inland Taipan Snake - Information Report

Inland Taipan 
Did you know that one drop of the inland taipans venom can kill 100 adults or 250 thousand mice?
Or that they don't have any environmental dangers? If you like snakes you still probably don't know
much about this snake because it's difficult to find facts about this snake.
If you read this information report you can learn about the physical characteristics, habitat, what they
eat and the only natural predator of the inland taipan!

Physical characteristics  
It's currently the third most poisonous snake because of its defensive physical characteristics 


Some physical characteristics define the color of the inland taipans scales while camo-flashing the
snake into its habitat, for example that sometimes its scales can change color depending on the season.
On the more defensive side of things one drop of its venom can kill 100 adults or 250 thousand mice,  
That's why it's the third most poisonous snake. 


Habitat   
It only lives in certain parts of Australia  


The Habitat Would be the black soil plants in Queensland, south Australia and the northern territory,
It can also live in deep cracks and fissures in dry soil. 
Sometimes in central Australia and the northeast corner of south Australia; Sometimes in new whales
and in rocky outcrops 

What they eat 
 They only eat mammals 

They eat lots of different animals but their main meals are usually long haired plague rats,
They also eat common house mice.
It takes a while to kill the prey because the venom takes 30 to 45 minutes to kill 



The only predator of the inland taipan    
The only predator the the inland taipan kill’s lots of other snakes as well


The king brown snake can kill a bunch of snakes including the inland taipan, They sometimes live in
similar places but wont fight all the time




In concussion The inland taipan isn't aggressive like the saw scaled viper, they don't like fighting
(most of the time), have powerful venom, live mainly in australia, only eat mammals and have only
one predator. What would you do if you met an inland taipan?

Elephant dung paper

This week the book choices were about the environment,  I chose one about turning Elephant dung into paper because one of my friends suggested the book because she loves Elephants.
Here's the final product of my work.

Elephant Dung Paper
 By Heidi   


The main problem that was solved was that to many trees were getting cut down to make paper, so people in Thailand and countries around that use Elephant Dung Paper as an alternative that also stops deforestation


Question 1. How did the problem occur?     
It occurred because of trees getting cut down 
  
Question 2. Is this an easy problem to solve?     
For me, I wouldn't be able to solve it but it seemed simple in the book 
  
Question 3. How can you solve the situation?     
You can try to use less paper, recycle more and plant trees and other plants 

Effects of deforestation:
The nutrients in the soil is exposed to heat meaning ( Soil erosion destruction)  .
When forests are destroyed water bodies and the water table are affected  .
Climate change 
A loss of biodiversity  (  Plant and animal life in the  same habitat, and is usually considered to be important and desirable. )
There's no natural way to change carbon dioxide into oxygen in the atmosphere 
Floods become more common
Soil erosion 
Top soil gets blown away 
Plagues and pestilence are more common because predators get removed from the environment 
Droughts get more common 
Native people get displaced from their environment and can no longer hunt and gather medicine and food 
Loss or culture and tradition  
Animals lose homes 

The main causes of deforestation: 
Natural causes like hurricanes, fires and floods

Humanoid reasons like making paper, collecting wood and creating space
Agricultural Activities


How to slow down the rate of deforestation:
Plant trees when you possibly can 
Use less paper
Don't buy products containing palm oil 
Buy certified wood products 
Buy recycled products
Don't burn firewood excessively 
Consume less meat
