How plants grow best by Tanisslous

WAL: about how plants grow best


This is what I think about how plants grow.
We will be doing some experiments to find out if it is true.

1. How much sunlight do plants need to grow?
Not much, about 12 hours a day. Some can be a lot.

2. Can plants grow in the shade? Can they grow inside?
Yes because we  have some plants in our house.

3. Can plants grow better by talking to them? Why?
No because plants have no ears.

4. Can plants grow in sand? or rocks? Why?
Some can and some can’t. Cactus can but all the others can't.

5. How much water do plants need to grow? What type of water?
Not so much but at least once a day. ( Clean water )

6. Can you feed plants food? If yes, what kind?
No plant make their own food.

How I made a tapa cloth by Tanisslous

WALT: write an explanation that is clear and east to follow, and includes headings and detail

Sketching shells
Firstly,we had to sketch some shells with a pencil.
We sketched the main lines on the inside of the shell.
We did it carefully so we don’t  do it wrong.

Transferring Design
Secondly,we had to transferred the shell that we drew before on a piece of paper.
We had to draw the thing that we draw before on a piece of paper onto a piece of cardboard.
Then we went over it with vivid.  
Scrunching the cardboard
Next,we scrunching the cardboard until it was slof.
And all wrinkly.
But not too wrinkly.       

Adding colour
Finally,we added colour. The colours were brown,black and white.
And then we stick it all to other and it makes a tapa cloth.

My Hero.

Once upon a time there lived a hero named Puss in Boots.  He was the best cat living in New Zealand. One day he had to complete a mission. His mission was to find a lost treasure in a dark, dark cave.

He came to the cave. It was a fox's cave. Puss in Boots saw 24 foxes. The leader was named Bad Eye. His helper was called Red Eye.

Puss in Boots took out his sword and got ready to fight.  He attacked the foxes. All the foxes stopped and decided to give him the treasure instead.

Puss in Boots went back to his house with the treasure and to eat his dinner of yummy cat food. Puss in Boots loved his cat food and home was where his bed was too.
