My information report about the red sand stormy planet Mars

In Week 5 of Term 2 our class focussed on how to write great information reports.

We wrote about the planet Mars as we are in the middle of learning about Planet Earth and Beyond. Learning how to write a great information report will help us with our self-guided topics in a few weeks time.

Here is my writing, after I have self-assessed and peer-assessed my work.

My Information Report Success Criteria:	Self	Peer
My heading:
is an interesting title (I might have phrased the title as a question.)
My opening paragraph:
says what my report is about in a clear way
gives a general “classification” – and maybe a technical classification
outlines the main features of the subject
My main paragraphs:
have sub-headings where helpful
have clear topic sentences  (topic and main point)
are organised so that each paragraph is about a different aspect of the subject
give detailed information (factual descriptions)
include specific, technical vocabulary
are generally balanced (have a similar amount of detail about the different aspects I write about)
may have helpful: tables, pictures and/or diagrams to add information
My end paragraph:
draws the report together/sums up my main points
may give a personal opinion; ask the reader a question and/or tell the reader where further information may be found

An information report about the red dust storm planet Mars.

Opening Paragraph

Have ever wonder what it’s like on mars? Well heres 2 little fun facts about the red planet Mars. Mars is the 4th planet in our solar system.Also the planet Mars is named after the Roman greek god of war Mars.

Body Paragraphs

SURFACE FEATURES FOR MARS:

Mars is a lifeless planet because no living being hasn’t been there or anything (only dirt, mountain and the biggest volcano lives there too.) Mars doesn’t have any water only ice and desires because it’s a dry planet and also its like venus how its got lots of volcanoes that sprays but instead it’s caused by asteroids and meteorites. But also it has lot of sandstorms that happen and can actually blind you. But not living being like us humans can go as far to mars so people made drones to go to mars.

Why Humans can’t live on mars?:

Well one reason is that there’s only little oxygen on Mars and the air on Mars is carbon dioxide. That the first reason but there’s still more to go. Another reason is that you can get skin cancer from Mars because it’s not like earth how its got the invisible force field from getting the UV rays away from us so we don’t get skin cancer. Also at night time at mars it’s so cold it's like a ice cube just bigger so you’ll freeze to death. Even though at night time it’s freezing cold at day time it kind of warm because Mars is like antarctica how cold its is and how hot mars can get is 20 degrees and how how cold is -150 degrees. So thats just my reason why humans can’t live on Mars. Also it only takes 6 months to get to mars so thats the bad thing but the good thing is thats you can eat lots of space food in the ship.

Mars’ moons?:

Mars’ is the only planet that has two moons (Named Phobos and Deimos.) Mars’ moons are not the same, One is bigger than the other one ( Phobos is bigger than Deimos.) Now that we know that mars has two moons maybe our moon is bigger than Mars’ moons?

ending Paragraph:

Now that I’ve told you some facts about Mars I hope these body paragraphs and introduction know a little bit about Mars the red planet and this is a website that I think will help you if you’re making a information report about Mars too http://easyscienceforkids.com/all-about-Mars/. I hope you good luck in your information report.

First up DLO

Hello this is a unfinished DLO but I'm showing you so I can have some feedback on it so I can make my next DLO better then this one. but the DLO was from this text called first up. Me and group readied the text and my friend Peter help too and this is our DLO.

Solving palce value problems with division

hello this is my second time making a explain everything video and this is different because this is about place value problems and I'm using division to solve it

Thinglink about ANZAC day.

This is my thing link also about ANZAC day. This back round for my thinglink is mans that went to the war and are killing people for a there barriers that they and there mates made.

My DLO for ANZAC day

This is my DLO about ANZAC day. It was fun doing it with my friends at school and I hope you like it because it took a long time.

My Reflection about ANZAC day

What:

That yesterday we made poppies that were for a ref to put under the flag pole. So it took a long time to make (because I didn’t know what to do) but then I told one of my best friend and she told me what to do and I followed her steps. After a few minutes I finished my first one but then I just heard that your suppose to do both sides so I went and did that. I finished my first one then 5 minutes later I finished my second one.

So What:

Why are we learning about ANZAC day is because ANZAC day was coming up soon and the next day (today) we got a service to do. By the time we finish our poppies we have to do an astronaut and our bookmarks (sorry got off track). But why is ANZAC day so special is because people scifres there life on the war to  make this world a better place

Now What:

I want to tell people that ANZAC is not a holiday that means nothing it is really something special and to make the soldiers that have made the rest of their life trying to protect their land.

This is my reflection about what did you learn so what are you going to do now what are you going to do.

I hope you like what I learnt and what I want to do now.

My Explanation About Surviving Your First Night In Minecraft

 

In Week 6 of Term 1 our class focussed on how to write great explanations. We wrote about how to survive your first night in Minecraft (the game a lot of us are obsessed with!).

Here is my writing, after I have self-assessed and peer-assessed my work.

HOW TO SURVIVE YOUR FIRST NIGHT IN MINECRAFT

Hello my name is Hati I’m going to tell you how to survive your first night in minecraft. But first I will tell you a little about minecraft, minecraft is a popular game around the world that some people say it a boring game.Because there is no ending to this game.

How to survive the first night in minecraft. Firstly look for a tree and after you have found one break it down with your fist because when you start off in minecraft you have nothing no tools no nothing so when you are done mining your tree you want to go on your crafting box or if you are play xbox 360/one you just press the blue x button.

Now you want to make oakwood planks by looking for the oakwood planks icon. So now you want to make an crafting table to craft tools and other things like a furnace, chest, food and the most item I like it the amor. So after you made a crafting table you want to make wooden tools and why you need to make wooden tools is because you have nothing else to build tools so thats why you make wooden tools.

The three tools I recommend you use is the sword,axe and a pickaxe. Why I think that is the best is because one the sword is to kill cows,pigs and sheep and mobs like zombies, skeletons, spiders, enderman and creepers. Two the axe breaks any wood faster than using your hand or other materials. Last 3 the pickaxe is good so you can break stone to upgrade your tools and make a furnace and others. So now you want to break stone with your wooden pickaxe. After you have broken all the stone you need like about 24 or 16 and get out your crafting table and make a sword, axe, pickaxe and  but instead of using wood you use the stone that you had.

After you have done all those things you have to make a house before sun down because if you don’t make a house before sun down you might die by not protecting yourself by using your wooden tools when you're  fighting a zombie with amor because sometimes you might see that. So you should build your house out of wood to make your house or using your stone too but I don’t think you should use your stone. But your house is the most important thing in this game because if you don’t have any tools then you're in big trouble. Cause you nothing to protect you when it comes to surviving the night. Oh and I almost forgot never dig up when you're in a cave and never dig down because you might fall into lava if you dig down and  lava might fall on you if you dig straight up.

I hope this Explanation help you to survive the first night in Minecraft and if you know how to survive your first night then I wish you good luck finishing the game.
