Can you make a rugby ball flout?

What I found out is that you can't make a rugby ball flout.

What went well was that I got it all done in the first few weeks.

What didn't go well was it was not much of a fear test.

What I enjoyed was doing the experiment with my friends.

The Carbon Cycle

HOW DOES THE CARBON CYCLE WORK ON LAND?

The Carbon Cycle is all around us, carbon is in all living things such as plants, shells, fish, reptiles, mammals, humans and much, much more. Carbon is found in some non-living things as well like rocks, fossil fuels and rubbish bins.

The carbon cycle is an important part of Earth because it keeps us living. Our bodies are made up of carbon and we would be in a lot of trouble if carbon did not exist.

Photosynthesis is a very important part of the Carbon Cycle. Trees capture the sun’s energy to use carbon to make food. We breathe out carbon dioxide and trees breathe it in, we breathe in oxygen the trees give us.  When leaves fall off trees, they float down the river,  which flows downstream, to a lake or ocean, where it is then disintegrated and the Carbon sinks to the bottom of  the sea or lake which is called transportation. 

Animals are non-photosynthetic creatures. Which means they are not able to create their own food, so they eat plants instead.  Then the carbon from the plant goes into the the animal,  and  eventually the animal dies and turns into fossil  fuels this is called disintegration and compaction.

The humans impact on the carbon cycle is getting worse, we are cutting down more and more trees by the minute and creating more fossil fuels. If we do not stop now the world will end quickly.

So to conclude the carbon cycle is a complex cycle. That occurs just about anywhere, and is all around us. It starts with photosynthesis, then turns to respiration, then becomes decomposition, transforms into transportation, then lastly compaction.

Comedy and Tragedy Mask

My Opinion of the Events of Parihaka

WALT: summarise information and give my opinion

I think Te Whiti and Touu are inspirational because they did what was right. The leaders did not want violence because it was pointless and they would lose and die.

My thoughts are that the Maori did what was the right thing and the Europeans were wrong and should have been punished.

About Henry

Bear Grylls biography

WALT: write a biography of a person I find inspirational

Bear Grylls is an outdoors specialist and extreme sports enthusiast. He has done many amazing things and I wont to follow in his footsteps like climbing Mount Everest! He is known for his TV program Man VS Wild.

Bear Grylls was born on 7th of June 1974 in Northern Ireland.  He was christened Edward but changed his name to Bear. Bear was a nickname his sister gave him when he was little. Bear Grylls went to Eaton House Ludgrove school. He is the son of the late Conservative party politician Sir Michael Grylls, and Lady Grylls.  

Bear Grylls spent part of his life in the English military service, but had to stop after a massive free fowling accident. He spent a very long time in rehabilitation  senator and found out he broke his back, and might not be a-bill to work again. He kept on fighting. He is now one of the best adventure survivalist in the world. 

Bear Grylls has climbed Mount Everest, crossed the North Atlantic, paramotored over Angel Falls, had a dinner party at altitude, paramotored over the Himalayas, joined access to Antarctica, and had the longest free fall.

Bear Grylls has been to many many centuries, islands and deists, and eaten even more crazy food. He said the NZ weta was the worst thing he has ever eaten. In his TV program Man vs Wild he has done seven series and is doing his last this year. Once when he was getting honey from a bee hive he got stung and since he’s illergic to bees he ended up looking like a balloon.

I find Bear Grylls inspiring and I wont to follow in his foot steps right form the military service, extreme sportsman to an outdoors specialist!
