Highlight of my summer

My summer highlight is camping with my mum, my little brother, Liam, my aunty and cousin. on the first day we set up everything at the camp site and then we went down to a river that was near by. We swam in the river for a while and then we went back up.  We had dinner and went to sleep. We stayed there for two nights. On the last night we saw a possum at our friends camp and then we went back to our camp and then we saw a possum at our camp! Then we heard a More pork in the tree that was next to our tent. We tried to find it, but it was hiding. We lay awake for a while and then we heard it move to a tree on the other side of the camp site. It was very exciting for my cousin Mackenzie, Because she had never seen a More pork before.
                                                                   It was fun camping.

Why cats are the best pet

Cats are the best pet

Lots of people have pets and I think Cats are the very best pet. Some people will hate cats because they scratch your curtains, but Cats are very entertaining, amazing, and easy to look after. I am sure after you read this you will think Cats are amazing too.

Cats are very funny and entertaining. They are very smart and intelligent, so you can teach them tricks. For example, my Cat Rico can stand on his hind legs and jump up onto our fence. But  you should never tease a cat. Teaching a cat tricks can sometimes lead to teasing. You can play with them as well. You can get cat toys and use them to teach your cat tricks or just play a little game with them.

Cats are very amazing. For instance, Cats can climb trees. Most animals can’t climb trees. And another reason is, that if a cat jumped off a high place, it would always land on its feet! It can jump really high and it can sense if someone was coming up to your front door.

Finally, Cats are very easy to take care of. Unlike dogs, you don’t need to clean a cat because cats clean themselves. You don’t need to get a cage or kennel, because cats always come back home if you keep them in the house for two weeks. Dog’s need company, but cats don’t. So you don’t need to worry about your cat when you go to work every day. And if you're got a rat problem, your cat would eat them, so you don’t really need to feed them much if they eat rats. Another reason is you don’t need a backyard or big section to have a cat. You could just have it inside your house all day and if you have a apartment, you can fit a cat in there. Sometimes you don’t need to buy them a bed! they will sleep on the end of your bed most of the time.

some people might think cats are bad because they have claws, but you can get their claws removed.

Now you know why cats are amazing. They are the best pet for you. So go down to your nearest pet shop and get one now ( unless they're sold out )

Assembly Item

Today my class performed in front of the school for our assembly item.

We did a quiz show about the universe and some of the questions we just made them up.there was a host, a quiz master and mad scientists. I was one of the mad scientists. we had some problems with sound but we got it fixed. Some of the questions were why do we have day and night. Two would be made up and one would be true.

Most of the kids were nervous but I was excited. In fact I really wanted to get up on stage right now!

But when it was my turn I was really nervous because everyone was staring at me! Luckily I was really brave and I said my lines without making a mistake. And without the script!

I was really happy with my performance because I was really brave and I said my lines without the script.     

I felt great after my performance because I did good.

The Water Cycle

the water cycle  

Introduction

The water cycle is very important. The water helps grow the food we eat. Without it we would be dead. Earth will be just a desert with no life or water.

Evaporation

The water cycle starts off as just water. The heat of the sun evaporates the water and it rises up into a cloud. This is called evaporation. eg: If I left a glass of water in the sun and go away four hours this happens. The water has evaporated And became a cloud.                                                                                                                                                  

Condensation

Inside the cloud the water drops push together creating bigger drops. The drops continue to travel up until they get too heavy and gravity pulls it down.

Precipitation

inside the cloud the drops get heavier and heavier until the drops start pouring down. this is called precipitation.

if the drops go further up the freeze and that creates hail and snow.

Run-off

when the water hits land the water travels out to sea or becomes groundwater. this is called run-off.

Conclusion

now you know all about the water cycle. it is important to earth in many different ways.
