Big adding up and fractions


Today I have been doing more fractions and adding big numbers, the ones where I had to carry the ten across took me longer but it’s the first time I’ve done them and mum said I did well.
I am now going to type my own blog then do some reading.

Esmae’s Blog

Hey everybody. Today I did some five a day and some algebra. I found it a bit hard to find the percentage of something. So I’ll have to work on them with my mum. Think we are going to go for a walk with our dog Lily to get some fresh air. Bye Esmae

Arctic dioramas in the hub

Daniel and Gabriella have made Arctic dioramas. Daniel built a vehicle that will work in the Arctic, to go into his diorama.  Daniel took the photos of the dioramas.

Animals in the Arctic and Climate Change.

I’ve re-written the paragraph about Arctic Animals and how climate change is affecting them.

Many different living animals or plants respond differently to climate change. Some animals react quickly and change things such as behaviour. Others change things they do slowly to cope with the changes. Animals that live in the Arctic have already got to cope with difficult weather so climate change problems make it extra difficult for them. Climate change is making different animals move to areas of the arctic they wouldn’t usually live. This affects the animals that are already living there as they aren’t used to sharing their home with those animals.

The amount of birds in the Arctic is getting less each day because of climate change. Birds go to the Arctic to nest because there aren’t many predators. However now that the ice is melting and there’s more green land the number of predators is going up and birds are having their eggs stolen more often. Birds are migrating to the Arctic earlier because of temperature change.

The change in temperature is making icy layers in the snow which makes it hard for reindeer to feed. This means they will starve and more will die.

You can only find polar bears in the Arctic. This means climate change can make them go extinct. Every part of a polar bear’s life has been affected. They hunt on the sea ice for seals and this is melting, making polar bears go hungry. Changes in the snow changes how they can breed. Polar bears are at the biggest risk from all these changes.

IDL project

Holywood   vs   Ny Alesund!!!!!!

We are back and we are doing an IDL arctic project on what is different between Holywood and Ny Alesund.

Holywood and Ny Aselund both have a post office but the only thing that doesn’t look similure is the way it looked and the way it looks now, the difference between Holywood and Ny Aselund is that the houses are made out of wood and the walls here at Holywood are sometimes made out of wood but mainly made out of stone or brick. Another difference  is that they have an arctic research station. If the arctic was here would we have an arctic research station?  the climate here is usually -1 but here but the climate there in February and march is normally -9 to -16, April is -6 to -13, may is 0 to -5. At Ny Aselund, in summer the sun never sets and in winter the sun never rises. When you are looking at some of the pictures they look fabulous and the landscape they have is stunning, the view, looking out a window into the mountains is amazing. Holywood landscape is in the middle for me and the view in some places, not really good some other may be amazing you might take a picture. Which place do you prefer? Which place would you stay?
