Communities

A community is a lifecycle and the food chain. Some animals are on top of the food chain. Flowers and insects have a great relationship as friends. A community is also about friendship. Plants and animals depend on each other to survive. Some plants depend on other animals and insects to pollinate them. Without the nectar insects and and birds that feed on flowers would not be able to survive.

 

Structural Adaption

A structural adaption is where animals, birds and plants have to adapt with their body’s and their brains. Many animals and plants have specific parts of their body that are adapted for their particular habitat. In some habitats there aren’t a lot of birds. Birds can adapt easier when their in the air. Each animal has different adaptive ways.

 

Species At Risk

The black bear is at risk because the humans would eat the bears and steal their territory. The black bears became at risk in 1992. It became at risk because the humans would destroy the forest and the population of the black bear. Why Did This Happen? And What Can Be Done?

My Stop Motion

(Intro) Welcome to my stop motion project. Stop motion is a very hard short movie. Here is a video about stop motion. Me and the members in my group Sam and Bernie were asked to pick a scene in the Wild Robot book that we think was very important. These are some photos of my stop motion booklet.

Booklet Pictures


 This took us about a month. In the first picture we had to write a script about who’s going to talk and move and all that stuff. The production set design is where we make our set and background. The page with all the pictures is how this movie is going to play out.  The video I’m about to show you is my real stop motion, so tell me if you like it. 

It actually took so long. I know it doesn’t look like it was hard but trust me it was.

Self Assessment


This is my self assessment and I think I did pretty well.

Self Reflection

I think the filming went well but the set could have been better. I would have made the set more colorful and more exiting.

Indigenous Project

This is my indigenous project.

Our presentation was so fun but I was also so nervous. I felt like I was going to faint.

Everything went well but I felt like it could have had a little more information.

I think I could talk a little more and look at the audience.

Science

Hi guys welcome back to another science unit today we are going to be doing

how light travels. Sound can travel and sound can also reflect (it can bounce off of things).

Sound can be absorbed (it does not bounce off of things). Sound can be modified (you can change the volume). Sound is caused by vibrations, let’s say we were on land when we talk it will take longer to hear because of the vibrations, but when were on water we can hear it faster.



Sound is made of vibrations. Sound is made when we speak or an instrument or anything makes sound.

sound is made of sound waves/vibrations.

 

how does sound travel.

sound travels in waves like this.

Up and down. The waves can become smaller or bigger depending on the pitch.

 

For our science project we had to make a model ear out of clay. This one is mine.

and this is what it is supposed to look like.

I think I did ok. I did label them though.

The eardrum picks up the vibrations/sound waves from the sound. when the vibration hits you r eardrum it vibrates. when sound waves travel through the sky or the air your outer ear grabs them. The outer ear helps the sound waves by directing them in your ear and through the ear canal. The ear canal is very narrow compared to the outer ear. The sound waves get caught get pushed up against our eardrum and make it vibrate. When the ear drum vibrates it makes three small bones. These bones are called the auditory bones. These bones send the vibrations to the shell-shaped inner ear called the cochlea.

This are is filled with liquid and thousands of tiny hair. The vibrations make the liquid move and make the hairs move back and forth. Gross right. The hairs are joined to the nerves that send a signal to your brain. Your brain then lets you know what you are hearing. This all happens in less than a second.

 

 

My First Science Unit

Welcome folks to JoJo’s first science unit. The first unit we did in science was investigating light.

 

Natural Light vs Artificial Light

Natural light is something that makes its own light like the Sun, glow worms, fire flies.

And Artificial light is light that is man made for example light bulb, TV , and computers.

The first project we did was called ray of light.
We had to cut holes in the middle of index cards and on one index card it had a bullseye. They were all lined up and we had to shine a flash light and the flash light had to hit the bullseye. We did this because we wanted to see if light would bend. Another project we did was luminous and non luminous luminous means something that makes its own light. Like this. This is luminous because the sun makes its own light

This is non luminous because the moon does not create its own light it reflects from the sun.

 

Another project we did was opaque, translucent, and transparent.

this is opaque because you cant see through it.

And this is transparent the one on the right because you can see through it.

And this is translucent because you can kind of see trough it.

We also did reflection which means when light reflects like the moon reflects off the sun.

When you shine a flash light at a mirror it will reflect on to an object in front of it.

this is reflecting because the light shines on the puddle which reflects back up.

The last thing we did was how light travels. Light travels in a strait line except when there’s and object in the, way like a wall the light will now stop it cannot go through the wall, but if there is a mirror the light will bounce off.

 

Reflections of Learning:

This first science unit was really fun but I’m very excited for our next unit, sound.

I am very looking forward for rocks and mineral, and I hope I can improve on working on experiments. The things that are going well are experiments, tests, and working.

 

thank you for reading.

 

My Recount

I was happily arriving at my grandparents house for my grandpa’s  birthday in Montreal.

We  first arrived at 12:06 am at my aunt’s house and I went straight to bed because it was so late and I was so tired.

 

The next morning when I woke up at my aunt’s house I was so excited because it has been 4 years! Finally I saw my aunt, uncle and cousins. We drove to the beach called Sandbanks and went into the water. The waves were huge! We took a break and had a quick snack and then obviously we went  back in again. 

 

The next day my dad, my uncle, my brother and my cousin went to an underground cave. It was pitch black and had a ton of bats and bugs. 

The cave was huge and cool. It was called Tyendinaga and they used it for a world war 2 underground bunker. It looked old and slimy and gooey. It felt very cold but cool.

After that my uncle, my brother and I went rock climbing for 2 hours and the rocks were colorful and full of chalk. After that we went for ice cream and I got  cotton candy and it was actually kind of gross!

 

Afterwards we went to the sand dunes and the sand dunes were huge and massive and it was so fun, and we ran up and down the sand dunes and I felt amazing and I got so tired thankfully I did not get sandy. We went back to the beach to chill and when we got home we had dinner. I ate chicken and played a board game called Catan and I lost so I ran all around the house and I was so mad. After Catan we went to sleep. I was so tired, especially after that run around the house my mom carried me to my bed . 

 

I woke up sadly knowing I was leaving and we packed up our car and said goodbye to my aunt, uncle and cousins. I was so sad. We went back to Ottawa and it took 2 and a half hours. On the road we had Mcdonalds.

Cheetahs

Cheetahs are amazing. Cheetahs can run up to 70 miles per hour. Cheetahs like to hunt for wild animals like Gazelles, impales, and hares. Cheetahs are the fastest land animals in the world. I love cheetahs because they are so fluffy. Cheetahs hunt either for themselves or for their cubs.

FAKE!

REAL!

REAL!

FAKE!

 

Cheetahs are just my favorite thing in the world, they keep me distracted, they make me soft on the inside, and they’re just the best bye!.

 

ALSO YOU BETTER KEEP READING MY BLOG POST okay thank you bye.

 

The Coolest Blog Post

I love animals, some animals are fluffy and some are not. But my favourite one is a cheetah, I love cheetahs because they can move so fast and are so fluffy their Cubs are also so adorable. I also like Crocodiles, Sharks, lions, and Snakes.

 

I also love soccer so much. How you play is you’re on a team and there is a ball, the ref drops the ball and you have to get the ball with your feet and kick it into the other team’s net. First one to get the most points at the end of the games wins.

 

Food keeps us alive, no wonder everyone likes food. I Like burritos, pizza, spaghetti, chips, and tuna sandwiches. I also love drinks like lemonade, apple cider, apple juice, grape juice, and Gingerale.

 

Keep reading for more!!!!!!!!!
