Finding Extraterrestrial Life.

Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog pot about science. We are talking about astrobiology, finding extraterrestrial life in space.

  1. What was the main idea of this article, what was it about? The main idea of this article is looking or finding extraterrestrial lives. The Goldilock zone is a habitable zone around a star. There are a lot of goldilocks zone all around the universe and our solar system is one of them.

  2. What is the ‘Goldilocks zone’ or the ‘habitable zone’? Can you add detail to explain what this term means. Habitable means there can be life, or you can live on it.

  3. Why is mass important? What does it have to do with gravity? When an object is sitting still, it resists moving, and the more mass it has the more to fight. 


  1. How are Antarctica and Mars similar? Provide two examples from the text that compare the two. Antarctica and mars is similar because of the icicle around the land. Its the same because the land is covered in ice.

How would you feel if you found out there was extraterrestrial life? I won't be surprised because we are we are just one solar system and there are lots more out there.,Why? Because there can be other lives outside our solar system.

Planet Detective

 Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Science, Today we are going to be a Planet detective What happened to Mercury/ Whiro's atmosphere.The planet's small size means that its gravity is too small to hold down a normal atmosphere. There is a very thin atmosphere around the planet. Mercury is really close to sun its just 57.705 million km. Earth to sun is 151.21 million km. The mass on  Mercury is 3.285 × 10^23 kg. Earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg.

Not having an atmosphere affects Mercury by getting hotter because the atmosphere protects planets from the sun. Nothing will be able to live in the surface of mercury.During the day, temperatures on Mercury's surface can reach 800 degrees Fahrenheit 430 degrees Celsius. Mercury is not habitable. Earth is 45 to 70 degrees this temperature is habitable.How long is the sun going to live 5,000,000,000—five billion—years to go. After it, the sun will turn into the white dwarf.

How Did Mercury Get Its Name? The Romans believed that gods and goddesses were in charge of everything on Earth. Whiro is the lord of darkness and embodiment of all evil in Māori mythology.

Explanation Writing- Science.

 Hello readers today I'm going to be making a blog post about E-asTTle Rubric Explanation Writing. We are going to be putting all our plans together and make a while explanation writing. Today we are doing Sentences and Structure and language. Here is what I did: 

How did the Polynesian navigator navigate the Pacific Ocean? -


The Polynesian navigated the Pacific ocean by using the stars to find their directions. When they see birds this means that they are close to land. They find the north star to go to north, they observe the positions of stars and memorize it. They find the southern cross, southern cross if a group of stars makes a cross.  


They navigated using the canoes by the stars and other signs from the ocean and the sky like the tide. The rover is going to Mars because it needs to do a mission.The Rover is going to Mars because it needs to do a mission, this mission is really important.


 Astronauts use the constellations to navigate in space. In space they use satellites to know where they are going. You can space navigate by using the planets. They used the satellites to navigate by using radio waves. They memorize the positions of the stars and that is how they find the way.. 


 The Polynesian wayfinders navigated  the Pacific ocean by using the stars to find their directions. They navigated by observing the stars positions. Astronauts use the constellations to navigate in space. They also use satellites to navigate, they use them to navigate by radio waves.

Needs and wants.

Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Needs and Wants. We are learning about Can you afford a pet, we needed to make a DLO about it and put the total in all of them. I think the things that are necessary are the needs, Like food, shelter and water. How we can get needs for the pets without spending that much money is by looking at the brand or just make the needs for the pet. You can make a house for the pet by using wood, or just let it stay inside your house. Buying the things that are more important. This is what me and Jesse did:

100 Words Challenge.

 











Boo! I'm a magnificent powerful gigantic robot who didn't respond.I like reading books., I'm always alone. I’m getting weaker and weaker. Poof! said his friend that's hilarious, you can’t  be weaker and weaker. Your a.. I’m getting weaker and weaker! Kapow! he shot his friend, “Huh!, why did you do this,” “You are a Monster!”. I zoomed out of the room to escape. I zapped so no one can find me, I saw a chicken. It was just like my friend. I felt sad, I crashed myself to the ground by jumping on the top of the building.

Gravity.

 Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Science, we are learning about gravity.  I know a lot about gravity because I read books, here are some questions and answers.

Is gravity the same on all the planets?  Gravity is what holds our world together , However, gravity isn't the same everywhere on Earth. Gravity is slightly stronger over places with more mass underground than over places with less mass. 

How is gravity related to mass? Gravity is the attractive pull between two objects that have mass. The strength of gravity is directly proportional to the amount of mass of each object

Calculate you weight on the other planets on or solar system. Jupiter will make you heavy and will crush you, Mercury is the planet with the lowest gravity.

How would your life be different if you lived on a planet with high gravity? You would get stronger because if you walk you would be heavier and you might get crushed too, you will feel heavier.  With Lower gravity? You will lose bones and muscles because you are going to be light in a planet with lower gravity, you will feel lighter.

STARRY TELLER.

 Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about HARATINA MOGOSANU: STARRYTELLER.

 What happened on the Mars Desert Research Station was  In your own words, summarise what happens at the Mars Desert Research Centre. The research center is in the desert in Utah, its a place the where people works. They said that it was kinda like Mars because they had to wear space suits.

 What did Haritina find difficult about being at the research centre? Six person crews stay there for 2 weeks, learning to live and work on the planet. Why? Haritina got scared because she wasn't used to that environment.

 And they are also there 24/7 this means that their there for Monday to Sunday. Why do you think it is important for astronauts to practice in an environment like this before heading into Space? I think its important to do this before to go to space because this is just practicing it. In space I think it would be harder, that is why I think this is important.

Living a Healthy Lifestyle is a Choice

Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Living a Healthy Lifestyle is a choice. We we're learning about eating healthy foods, and how we control them. Living a healthy lifestyle is a choice, this means that you can control it. The things that we cannot control are the diseases., hereditary illnesses, viruses for ex: Corona virus. We cant control these things because they are not controllable like eating food. The things that can affect our health is by eating too much sodium which is salt. If you eat too much of these you might get a heart attack. Eating too much sugar is also bad because you can get diabetes. We can lead a better lifestyle by eating fruits and vegetables and avoiding junk foods. What I do is eating healthy foods like apples, bananas and other fruits, I walk to school every day.

Parihaka Story.

Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Parihaka. We we're reading a book called Remember That November. Maori people we're having a normal life beside the Mt. Taranaki. Maori people got to jail because of the British, they offered a small amount of money to the Maori people and tried to take their land. There wore and held feathers, this was a symbol of peace. They didn't was to sell the land, what they did broke the law and they we're all took to jail.
The European was greeted by children playing games. What they found instead was the Maori people expecting a fight.This is very sad because they got to jail and they got their land taken. We we're watching a video about a school trip, they went to see the Mt. Taranaki and went to the jail where the Maori people went. They did haka, they sang for their ancestors. They said that they we're feeling their ancestors, they we're crying, thinking of what happened to their ancestors. 

What is Passive Resistance? 

It is the of trying to achieve social change without the use of violence. Like the Maori people did, they held the feathers and wore them. They tried to negotiate peacefully but they we're taken to prison. Ghandi Inspired the people all over the world including United States Of America. Martin Luther King was nineteen when he was Assigned to do the job. What he did was non violent and non resistant. King learnt about Ghandi through his writing and when he went to India. A testament to the revolutionary power of non violence or peace.

I think he felt this way because we was talking about things without people, and he said this is how you walk alone. He was looking for gold, because he said I follow gold. Sometimes I am lucky and meet its gaze and hold it close The river offers few clues.



I read a poem it was about Following Gold. left my home for a new story, my heart heavy with questions. 

What is chance and what is fate? 
What fortune

lies in rivers in slumbering wait?

No map brought me here – just tales
gilded in promises.

 I am a rival among strangers, determined to turn
the earth inside out until my luck has changed.

I follow gold. Sometimes I am lucky
and meet its gaze and hold it close.

I am looking for a future, for my own
share of the light.

 The river offers few clues.

This is how you learn to walk alone.

This is how you write your story.

Mars Rover Launch Explanation Writing.

Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new Blog post about Science, we have been reading about Mars Rover Launch. The rover launched at the 30th of July, now, its travelling to Mars. We are doing explanation writing, explanation writing is when you tell about how or why something is happening. Here is what I did:

Have you ever thought about going to Mars?



The Rover is going to Mars because it needs to do a mission, this mission is really important. The rover is going to be looking for microbial lives, this is very interesting because Mars is non habitable. It is also going to be gathering the rocks and soil, to also take samples of it.


The Rover is an exploring device, it went to Mars to explore and look for microbial lives. A rover is an exploration device, us humans use it to go or do things on the other planets. This is really cool because people can control the rover from a very far distance. 


The Rover’s name is Perseverance, this name was from a teenager named Alexander Mather perseverance meant doing something despite or doing something hard for others. This boy chose a pretty cool name.


The Rover means wanderer, the Mars rover is wandering around to look for Microbial life and to gather rocks. This also means a rover is a space traveler, Its a space traveler because it went to space and got to another planet. A rover is an exploration device, this means that humans control them for exploration.

Healthy Lifestyles.

Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Healthy Lifestyles. We are learning about Getting Enough Sleep. Getting enough sleep is good for our body because sleeping is resting and relaxing our body. Sleeping also keeps you focused, it might help you to learn because you are not tired. Here is what I did:

How much sleep does a teenager need to get? Teenagers needs to sleep for 8 to 10 hours some people still sleep less than these recommended sleeping hours.

What time do you wake up to get to school? I get to wake p at 6:30 am. What time do you go to sleep on average? I sleep at 9:30 Calculate the times, does this give you enough sleep? I sleep for 9 hours and it's in the middle of the recommended time for sleeping.

Quality of Sleep: List four ways you can help your body get a quality night’s sleep
In your own words. Get tired in the day or have a physical activity. Do not eat sweets because they keep you hyper. You need to manage your worries, if you are stressed you can listen to asmr. You need to sleep at the same time you slept the day before.

Why do you think it is important to get a good sleep each night? I think its important to have a good sleep each night because you are not going to get tired.

You can Improve you sleep by having a shower before you you do it.
You need to avoid eating before you sleep, after you eat wait 2 to 3 hours before you sleep.

How do you think this will help you at school? Sleeping also keeps you focused, it helps you to learn because you are not tired.

This is my Hourly Time Management Worksheet. I think this is a pretty balanced day because I always play basketball and sleep early.
