Spectacular Space

Kia ora, hello peoples,

It's great to be back blogging with you guys. I hope you all had a fantastic break over the holidays!

So, for inquiry we are looking deeply into space. Over the week we got given a tic tac toe grid that had different things to research about space on it. We had to do 3 in a row of the activities. I am going to show and tell you about one of the activities I did.

I decided to research about how people in space do daily things like washing their hair. We had to write about 4 of these things and explain why they have do do it, ( I wrote about five ).
Here are my results:

Did you learn something?

See ya later!

Spectacular Southern Lights

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today we have learnt about the Southern Lights. The Southern Lights appear in the South Pole. They are generally green but are sometimes blue, red, or violet. Now you may be wondering what causes the Southern Lights. Well, they are caused by the sun, little particles reflect off the sun and down towards the Earth. The Earth has this sort of magnet that stops most of the particles from getting in, but some manage to sneak through. The particles excite the oxgen and nitrogen atoms which causes them to light up. That is the Southern Lights!

For our artwork today we made the Southern Lights. First we had to rip white paper in the shape of mountains and stick it at the bottom of a piece of black paper. We then dipped a paintbrush into white paint and brushed the bristles back so it made lots of dots on our paper for the stars. We then had to use chalk pastels to make the lights. There were more steps aswell but I find it very hard to explain!
Here is my art:

See ya later! Have a good holiday!
