Passport Task

Last week we had activities to do on a list. The activities are each worth points to gain and the goal is to get 200 points. It's a cool challenge type of thing for the whole class to do. On the picture is a ticket I designed for a music concert.

Album cover

 

For our passport tasks I made album cover of Stan Walker and this is my cover of Stan Walker, Take it easy. This activity was worth 40 points. When I showed my teacher she told me that I put alot of effort into my work and so she gave me 10 extra points for putting effort into my work. So that gave me 50 points in total.That album cover was based on my favourite song of Stan Walker. 

Tropics diorama

For the past few weeks our class has been making dioramas about any habitat they choose. I did my diorama on the tropics. As you can see mine has a dolphin and two turtles under the coconut tree beneath the hot sun.

Animal classification

Today we learned about how animals are classified into groups. Animals are either vertebrates (which means they have a spine) or invertebrates which don't have a spine).

Vertebrates are put into five groups. The are mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians. Mammals have fur or hair and give birth to live young.
Birds have feathers and lay hard eggs. Reptiles are cold-blooded and lay soft eggs. Amphibians breathe through their skin and need to keep their skin moist. Fish breathe through gills and have fins .

5 examples of each type:

Mammals:Cow, Horse, Bear,Dog, Human

Reptiles:snake,lizard,alligators,chameleons and a skink

Amphibians:newt,frog,toad,salamander and a caecilian.

Fish:seahorse,squid,blowfish,shark and a dolphin

Birds:eagle, rooster, ostrich, woodpecker and a peacock.
