The moon

2010-05-10T11:57:00.000+12:00

Earths moons is the fifth largest the solar system. Its quarter of the size of earth but weights only an eighteenth as much. It is an important part of our solar system here are some facts about the moon.
About five billon years ago, a huge cloud of dust and gas in space started to shrink under the pull of its own gravity. In the centre the cloud was squeezed so tightly that its presser heated it. That began to burn and formed the sun. Further out dust clouds formed into moons and planets formed. After a big splash according to this theory a mars sized planet smashed into earth, and the massive impact impact threw massive amounts of rock into space. This material formed into a rind of circulating debris witch came to form our moon.
The moon is quarter of the size of earth it has dark patches that are called seas where volcanic lava once flowed witch you can see with binoculars, you can also see hundreds of craters where meteorites have slammed into the surface. The reason that there are more of them on the far side is because the moon takes exactly the same time to turn around on its own axis as it does to orbit the earth, so one side is always turned away from us.
The moons effect on earth causes us to have lighter nights and a change of weather. When the moon plunges into the sun in about 1million years, for the moon travels 1km a year into the sun. We will experience darker nights and a change of weather.
The moon has a big impact on earth, it is 384,000 km away from the moon it phases depend on how much of the lit up part we can see from earth like full moon and quarter moon.

WALT: Create an advertisement persuading people to go to the Special Olympics here in Palmerston North. I used MS Publisher to create this poster. To make my poster stand out and grab the readers attention I used bold colours. I found finding the right background colours a challenging because not many colours stood out. Something I enjoyed was using the different fonts because it was fun to see what colours matchedand if they stood out. Something interesting I learnt about advertising was if you don't make it eye catching the reader won't think its exciting.

Special Olympics Movie

2009-12-04T10:21:00.004+13:00

WALT: follow an inquiry process and present out inquiry learning about the Special Olympics using MS Movie maker. Before making this movie, I looked over the feedback I received last term for my movie about China. Some of the things I took into consideration and tried to improve on when making this movie were to have a louder voice and clearer voice. Something interesting I have learnt about the Special Olympics during this inquiry is that you have to be 8 or over to compete. A challenge I found in this inquiry was having to memorise the words before we were on camera, I managed to solve this by trying on some scenes to sneak in the script.

ENJOY THE MOVIE!!!

WALT:Follow an inquiry process. This term we have been learning about China, we have continued building on the inquiry skills we have leart in term 2. We brainstormed open quesions as a class and then delegated these out to pairs. The part of China Beth, Izzy, Krista, Zeppelin and I were finding out more about was Chinas History. We found our information on the internet and from books. We used a data chart to make sure we triangulated all our information so we knew it was true. We then used movie maker to present our inquiry. Something I enjoyed was making the movie becuase I got to learn how to use Movie Maker. An interesting fact I found out was the Chinese zodiac anamalis arnt just years, thier months to. My next learning step in inquiry is to be more focased to awnser my qustons.

How cultures and Traditions Expressed though dance.

2009-07-28T11:48:00.001+12:00

Walt:During week one, we had a variety of learning experiences to tune us into ideas about our big question for this term - how cultures and traditions expressed though dance? We had a performance from the boys high pacifica group,a performance from st peters pacifica group and a drumming workshop. I enjoyed the drumming workshop the most because we got to make up our own beats. something new I learnt was about the instruments they use an how they make them.

Walt:present the information I have learnt during my inquiry simply and clearly so that others can gain the most important information from my presentation. This voice thread explains what I have learnt during my inquiry on the kiw. Something I think I did really well during this inquiry process was how I presented my work because I used paint and added magazine clipings. Next time I do an inquiry something I could improve on is adding more detail to my information box because I did not use as much detail as I could have. The part I liked best about doing an inquiry was having a member of DOC come in and talk to us about New Zealand native animals because it answered a lot of my quesions about the kiwi.

Walt:useblabberise to share infomation on our inquiry learning. Iused blabberise to make this video. The informaioni used is what i have found out so far during my inquiry on the Kiwi .An interesting fact I have found out about the Kiwi is that they eat fresh water crayfish.
