Bald Eagle Reading Work

This week, my reading group have been learning about the Bald Eagle. I learnt that the Bald eagle sometimes eats foxes and even wolves! I also learned that as a Bald Eagle grows, their beak keeps curving and doesn't stop, So they occasionally have to " Chip " it until it turns back to normal. But they also have to make sure that their beak isn't too blunt, otherwise, they will have to wait till it grows back!

Also, when their wings are uneven, they pluck their feathers off the other wing to make sure that it is balanced. There are some more facts in the video somewhere in my slide, Don't forget to comment!

   

The Trip

On Wednesday we went on a trip to the eco learning space. We were split into two groups, one went in the morning and the other one went in the afternoon. when we got there I learnt how things worked in the factory. My favourite was the machine that separated aluminium from the rest of the rubbish. Do you like star wars? because If you do then you are going to really like this part! so there is a machine that makes a sound like a lightsaber because... It is! they use an infrared light to zap the aluminium and create an electric charge and pushes it on to another role-belt so that it is separated. after that, we went to the eco drop which is a place where you have to look for the signs on the wall ( or anywhere really ) and remember three of them, that was my least favourite one because that was all we did. After that, we went to the eco store ( there is a lot of eco's isn't there! ) and we were given a budget of 500 dollars  and a list to see what to put in our flat, This was my favourite one because I got a gaming console, a piano, a go-kart and a boogie board. and guess what happened on the way back?... We saw the other group ( group two ) on their way there!

My speech

My school had a speech competition last week and my speech was about why the school holidays should be twice as long. How it works: so, everyone had to write a speech ( except the year ones because they are too small so they just have to sing a nursery rhyme ) and present it to their class. The teachers had to pick a person to represent their year level, ( only three people can represent each year level).The three that were chosen had to compete with each other to see who will get first, second or third. Although I wasn't one of those people, my friend Thom was. I was really nervous when I was in the auditions because if I made it through then the whole school would be watching me, and when they were watching me and I made a mistake then I would be embarrassed, I mean who wouldn't be nervous!?
