Term 4!

Pearl harbour attack

Yesterday it was 70 years that the Pearl Harbor was destroyed, the event that changed America forever.

We have just been researching and watching some of the things that happend in this war. We looked up the affects it has had on these people and there lives, and some people will never be the same again. It carries on in the family jeans, and even the kids today come out to be deformed in some way.

It makes me feel really sorry and it brought a shiver up my spine after what I have read and seen, It just makes me feel glad that we are lucky enough to not be in that situation. Here are some photos of how badly all the bombing actualy was...

Because of the rugby world cup that WE won :D We have done a little project on it, its about our biggest highlights of the games or anything about the rugby world cup. Her is mine.. media type="custom" key="11064686"

23/6/11 Today for reading my class had to go in pears and read a book. Courtney and I went together we got a book about the weather. We had to fined 5 facts and 1 opinion. Here is our work sheet...

Facts about the Weather Watch.

Geo: 1. Hurricain Katrina was one of the worst storms to strike the U.S in 2005. 2. If a flock of birds sit on wire it means there is rain coming. Courtney: Fact 1:Clouds that look like feathers are called cirrus clouds, Its very cold in the sky where cirrus clouds form so these clouds are not water droplets they are ice Fact 2:Weather satellites orbit the earth they take photos of the clouds thats how you get an idea of how the weather is going to turn out. Fact 3: Some people think that animals can predict the weather, apparently cats are good at predicting the weather, they wash there face before it rains and the scratch a post before a wind. Our opinion Georgia and Courtney: Overall we think that this book is good because it full of heaps of interesting facts that we didn’t know before about the weather watch. We defiantly learnt some cool facts from the book.

10/6/11 This week my reading group have been doing news articles and then we had to make our own news articles so i'm going to shear mine with you. :)
