Love That Baby

Love that baby,
 Like a star likes to shine
 I said I love that baby Like space loves the stars
 Love to call her in the morning
 Love to call her "hey there,Isabella!"

Sumdog

We use a maths game called Sumdog ,there are fun games like Hot er Sumdog. Sumdog should be called fundog.  The Sumdog Gi pops up on every game, the Gi is the sumdog logo.  Our teacher eplaced xtramaths with Sumdog because slowly the class stopped playing on xtramaths because it's boring!  I'm on Harpy Eagle and am 50% through Harpy Eagle.

Salmon Science


Easy Blog Photo
We have salmon in our class. They are fry the third stage of their life. We have to feed them and check the ammonia everyday.  Some die though, sad for them but interesting for us. When a salmon dies we suck it up in a tube and wiggle it around to see if it is still alive. Then if it is dead we throw it down the sink.  We are starting to feed them a pinch of crushed salmon food.

Piper is dragon and a snow leopard, Joseph is a cuddly hedgehog, Mishca is human and I am the Greek god of the sea Poseidon.  One of the seats aisle low and can be a bed the other two are just normal seats.

Concrete Poems

We have been writing learning from Sharon Creech who wrote Love That Dog. In the book a boy called Jack learns to write poetry by reading lots of different styles. Today we used a concrete poem called The Apple by CS Rigg. We tried to make our words build a picture two ways, with the shape and with the words we chose.

Salmon

The first time I saw the salmon I was excited I just couldn't wait to see them when they hatched and before I knew it they were hatched. Now they are fry and there is some bad news for you well you know when I told you about the salmon as eggs some of them died and lots of them have died.  Yesterday when I went to test the salmon Isabella and I sucked out 6 salmon from the tank.  Six is a lot of dead fish from the tank there is not much of them left in the tank Mrs Donnelly told Peter.

Salmon

Salmon Room 6 have salmon and at the end of the day someone gets a turn at testing the water and they have to wash your hands without soap and then you dry your hands on the towel and then you test the water up to 5 mm and then you time it for 5 mins.

Survivor Alevin

Today we explored the obstacles that Alevin have to overcome to survive once they hatch.  We used creative movement and tag to simulate the hazards and predators that the Alevin face.  Now we understand how lucky they are to survive!




Swim Bladder Investigation

Yesterday we used some film canisters and plasticine to investigate how salmon can stay afloat in the water.  It was challenging trying to get them to float under the water but not touching the bottom!














Our Fish

Our fish Room 6 have salmon. The amount of salmon we have is 52 left. We have to test them otherwise they will die, this is how you do it. You first put 7 drops of testing liquid in and then you do the same thing again. Then suck out the dead salmon and then you are done. We named one squiggly because he squiggles,they are funny to watch once they eat.

Cleaning My Room

Just about every day mum tells me to clean my room and she knows how much I hate cleaning my room. Who doesn't ? I hate cleaning my room when I have got something way better to do like playing with Lego , watching TV and a whole lot of other things . I might be lazy but I am great at keeping myself entertained for hours. That is why I hate cleaning my room.

Then they had egg sacks and they feed off themselves now they are frys and we have to feed them ourselves we have had a lot of dead salmon lately when we change the water in the tank because there is to much ammonia in the water.
