Geri's Game


Hello readers for the last couple of weeks we have been doing 100 word challenge but today we done a script about Geri and his chess game. He was sitting at the table waiting for someone to come and play chess with him but he was lonely and nobody wanted to play with Geri because nobody was at the park.
Please leave a comment on my blog on what I could do better next time.

I was the old man and was sitting wanting someone to play chess. I could hear the trees sway left and then right the grass was green and the trees were orange. I had just done my first move and then I went to the other side. I moved and I got excited. I was happy. I had a really good grin on my face like I was about to win and then I started losing. I almost had a stroke and then I stood back up and turned the board around. I was the winning colour and I was laughing. The player I was versing was surprised and then he knocked his king down and I won. I had gotten my teeth back. At the end I was smiling and I was laughing

Geri: You’re not gonna win this one good luck

Jacob: I'm gonna win this is easy

Geri: I have one more piece

Jacob: Check

Geri: Move your king

Jacob:I lost

Geri: hahahahah

Hello readers for the last couple of weeks we have been working on world war one slides and today we had to do a DLO about some questions we had to talk about them I added a photo to make it look better and it looked better because I made it look good and this is what I made please leave a comment on my blog on what I could do better.

Science



Hello readers for the last couple of weeks we have been working on science and today we were working planets and we had to do some questions and these are the questions I done I hope you enjoy please leave a comment on my blog on what I could do better.

This was because of Mercury’s lower gravity and because it’s so close to the Sun and receives the constant buffeting from its solar wind.
It has a tenuous atmosphere made up of hydrogen, helium, oxygen, sodium, calcium, potassium and water vapor.

From an average distance of 36 million miles 58 million kilometres Mercury is 0.4 away from the Sun.

This is how much mas Mercury had 3.285 × 10^23 kg and this is how much Earth has 5.972 × 10^24 kg.

Because the planet is so close to the Sun day temperatures can reach highs of 800°F (430°C)

Explanation Writing Assessment









Hello readers for the last couple of days we have been working on a writing assessment i was working with Ashton we were doing our writing about Polynesian and navigation in space we had to do a draft and then our final copy's. Then we had to read others story's to see if it made sense and then we had to do the sentence structure and the structure and language I wanted to work on how many times I used and. This is what i made please leave a comment on my blog on what I could do better next time.





Do you want to know more about navigation? Back in the day the Polynesian people would use the sun,birds and the ocean to help them find the way to the destination. They would use the sun, stars, ocean and birds they would help them get to land or get to their location if they were lost and they needed help.





The vehicles they used were rovers they used the rover to go to Mars to get samples and take photos. They are taking photos because people want to go to Mars so they can see what it is like and so they can come back to Earth and they can tell people how their experience was on Mars.





The Polynesians use materials like the sun, stars, birds and the flow of the ocean. It would tell them how close they were to land and what way they needed to go. The stars would tell them where to go the birds would tell you how close you were from land and the swell of the ocean would do the same as the birds.The birds and the swell would take them to their destination and they would use everything else to take them to their destination. They might get lost and they wouldn't know what way to go or where to go. They will use other resources to get them to their destination.








The people that are going to Mars would have to have a parachute for the rover to land safely but they are actually using a ladder. It is going to drop the rover down slowly so it doesn't break because they wouldn't be able to get samples if it broke and then if people want to go to Mars they won’t be able to go up to Mars.






In the rocket ship you need human power to make your rocket ship or boat move. Today, instead of using the sun and everything else you can use a phone or google maps to find your location and if you don’t have a phone you can do what the Polynesians used to do instead of using their phones.

Gravity Science

Hello readers for the last couple if weeks we have been working on science and today we stared working in gravity we had to do some questions and these are the questions I done I hope you enjoy.

1.Gravity is what holds our world together however gravity isn't the same everywhere on Earth.

2.The gravity of Mars is a natural phenomenon due to the law of gravity or gravitation, by which all things with ms around the planet Mars are brought towards it

3.We calculate weight by multiplying mass by the gravity on the surface of the planet so if you know your weight on Earth and the surface gravity on earth you can calculate your mass.

4.How would your life be different if you lived on a planet with higher  gravity? With lower gravity.It would be different because if you lived on a planet with higher gravity you will not be able to jump because the gravity it so high.If the gravity is to low you will be able to jump off the planet. I wouldn't be able to see my family or I couldn't play games or go to school.

Healthy Lifestyle

Hello readers today we started working on some slides about Healthy Lifestyle is a choice and then we had to create a paragraph about how we understand Healthy Lifestyles and this is what I made.

Healthy Lifestyle: I understand that you can eat healthy by eating fruit like bananas, apples and other types of fruit. A healthy lifestyle is a choice it means that you can control what you eat. By not eating healthy can cause tiredness and there is a risk that you can get some illnesses it can also make people overweight and then they will be obese and eat food that is not healthy for people it might have lots of fat in the food.
2 ways I keep healthy is showering everyday and eating health food like fruit so I can be healthy and strong.

Hello readers for the last couple of weeks we have been working on the Mars Rover Launch and then we had to do some paragraph the rover launched on the 30th of July and all of the details will be in my paragraphs. We have been working on explanation writing, Explanation writing is when you explain what you wrote by telling how or why. This is what I made.

If I had the choice to go to Mars I would because I want to find out what it would be like and then if I could come back to Earth I would tell others about my experience and inspire them to go if they wanted to.

The rover will be leaving earth on the 30 of July 2020 it is going to Mars because it is going to take photos people want to go to Mars so they can be the first person. There is also a rover going to Mars because it is also going to be getting samples like rocks

The rover will be getting to Mars on February the 18 2021 the rover is an exploring device and it is called Perseverance and that's what it is called it will help people find out if they can go to mars without dying.

200 Word Challenge

Hello readers for the last couple of weeks we have been doing the 100 Word challenge and then today we started doing a 200 word challenge the story was based on a feather theme and we needed to think about what the music reminded us about and I though it reminded me about a bird flying around in the sky and this is what I made.


This music reminds me of a bird and flying in the sky

There once was a bird and he was flying in the sky and flew across the mountains he saw the snow and went to go and show his family and then they saw a nest and there were baby’s in the nest there was also a mother looking after the kids. After they fly away and they go and fly and adventure and then they see worms and they are hungry so they go and have some food and take it to their kids and then a feather falls off and they keep the feather. They keep the feather because they are going to keep it as a adornment for remembrance. Then one of the birds gets lost but another group of birds find him and take him back to his family and they are safe and then they grouped together and they were all friends in the end and everyone was happy. And then the mother bird goes and looks for food for her kids and she gets lost but then she remembers the way she has to go then she gets back home they are happy.
