The Arctic polar bears actually come from Greenland.
The male hooded seals inflate their noses by closing one nostril and blowing air through the other one. Polar bears are the largest land predator in the world and also often swim up to 60 miles between patches of ice.

The Arctic is actually a desert made up completely of ice as it hardly ever rains and hardly ever snows. It has very cold winters and cool summers. The animals on the Arctic is killer whales, penguins, orca whales, Arctic fox’s and polar bears.

the arctic is very cold. they have cold winters and cool summers. the animals on the artic are poler bears penguins artic fox seal husky sea lion and the antartica ice and snow 3 miles thick.

We are learning about polar regions. We have found out that the weather is bitterly cold and windy and the Arctic and Antarctica are covered in snow and ice. We have been learning about polar animals and have found out that polar bears only live in Antarctica and penguins live in the Arctic. We are having a good time learning about our topic.

We have been looking at really hard puzzles and  trying to slove them, it is linked with professor Layton on the DSI, it is a really fun way of learning . We were told to make a class puzzle book, you could use one of your own puzzles or Mrs Harrison would lend you one of her puzzle cards to use. I used one of my own- Ramon got in trouble with Inspector Chemly and got send to S.T Mystere Jail. He was locked in a cell with a steel door(no hloes in it) so he couldn’t break down, no windows and rock hard walls. All that was in the cell was a piano, a calender and  springs. How did he eat, drink and get out.

A- He used the DATES on the calender as food, he DRUNK the springs(water) and he used the KEYS on the piano to get out. If you got it right then well done!!!

After the big wind in January the playground was filled with rubbish . P6/7  and Mrs MacDonald cleaned up the playground; it was a tough job and we even found a lawn mower . We were all split up into different groups each group got a different area to clean up.There  were two filled skips full of rubbish.
