Pixelated goose!

Hey there bloggers,
I'm back! For one of the activities that I had to do was to make, do or create something based on what you learned about the Canadian goose. I used google drive and I did a pixelated version of the goose and it did take me a while but in the end, it looked really cool. I took a screenshot and added a golden photo frame and called it the...
GOOSE-A-LISA! Which is a creative name and was also a bit funny too. I made the squares smaller by highlighting all of the squares and then on the very last one which is Z, I pressed the little triangle and resized the columns. I colored in the boxes and then I made the lines disappear by pressing view and then I tapped on the one that says gridlines and the lines go away. Here is a photo of my GOOS-A-LISA and I hope that you enjoy reading my blog post!

Not What I Expected

Hey there bloggers! I'm back!
And today I will be showing you a book that I made with FlipSnack which is a cool website that can make presentations, stories, posters that looks like a book which is an awesome website that you can use to make present things in an interesting way. I have made a story based on a narrative that I did because I wanted to make it more interesting so here it is and I hope you enjoy! I would also love your feedback and comments too on how I can make it better next time!

Inquiry anamtion!

Hey bloggers! I'm back better than ever!
Anyway's, if you've seen my recent blog post it's about plastic in the ocean which was part of our mini-inquiry that we did. Each group had a different subject and my group did plastic. First, we had to do a brainstorm of what we wanted to learn about and I did mine as plastic in the ocean. Then we wrote our notes and interesting facts which I added in my recent blog post. We had to do an animation that had to go with it and this is y animation that I made! I hope you like my blog post and I would love your feedback! I hope you enjoy!

Rubbish, Rubbish and more Rubbish!

Hey bloggers! I'm back! But before I told you what happened, I want to tell you a fact.
Did you know that 80% of the rubbish in the ocean is from land? Of course, the tree's and bushes can't do that but the humans can. That means that the 80% of the rubbish that is in the sea is because of us because we are making the rubbish and we can't be bothered putting it in the bin and so it goes in the sea and marine animals eat them. Then they DIE! If I were president and I knew that someone threw rubbish in the sea and watched an animal eat the rubbish. Then they will be taken to court and going to prison! But I don't think that will happen so I'll just keep dreaming. Anyway, in inquiry, we have been learning about rubbish and we had to go into our inquiry groups. We did a mini-inquiry subject and my group did it about plastic. I have done mine and I have taken points while I was reading facts and we had to skim and skim through the text because we don't want to add a whole paragraph. This is how my noting looks like! Hope you enjoy! What would you do to stop the rubbish and things going into the ocean?

  • 1-Did you know that 160,000 plastic bags are used every second! A lot, right?
  • 2-Plastics can end up in rivers or oceans since they are light and get carried by the wind and end up in rivers that lead to the sea.
  • 3-Plastic has killed lot’s of marine animals and we don’t care about them because if we did then we wouldn’t litter and make plastic things.
  • 4-According to Google, it says that 80% of litter in the sea comes from land!
  • 5-Did you know that in 2008, a type of whale called the Sperm Whale was found on a beach in California that was dead but worst of all was that it had 22 kilos of plastic inside its stomach!
  • 6-Did you know that in the north Pacific ocean there is 6x more plastic that planktons!

SOLUTION TO OUR PROBLEMS!

  • 1- Instead of using 160,00 plastics, we could just use bags like shopping bags instead of using plastic, just use shopping bags!
  • 2-How about we ban plastic bags because it takes longer to break down and it is also killing marine animals because they think it’s food.
  • 3-If we actually cared about our marine animals then we wouldn’t let the plastic get to the sea and I think that we should have like a machine that separates the plastic and we should have lie people on duty who stay by rivers and things and make sure there isn’t any plastic that might get to sea or rivers and lakes.
  • 4-80% of the litter in the ocean is from land and it is because we are lazy and we can’t be bothered picking our rubbish up.
  • 5-The reason why the whale died is because of the plastic that the whale ate but it ate 22 killos of plastic and that plastic was ours. Our plastic has killed whales and many other animals.
  • 6-The reason why there are more rubbish is because even though they get taken to the andfill, since plastics are light, they can just get carried to the ocean.
