Asmah, Kapri, Samantha & Dontailan: Collaborative Paragraph

Asmah, Kapri, Samantha & Dontailan

The sun is the center of our Solar System. We live on the third planet away from the sun called Earth. Over time as the universe has been going through phases of change, scientists have sent astronauts on space rockets for the idea of space exploration expedition. Research shows, that we have eight planets in our galaxy and more than a billion stars. It takes twelve hours  for the Earth to orbit the sun on its axis, giving us daytime. Stars are luminous points in the night sky made of gas called hydrogen and helium which expand when gravitational energy compresses them. Did you know that when we join stars together it forms a shape in the sky called constellations? Have you ever been told that during daytime the suns rays scatters across the atmosphere causing us to have a blue sky. As the Earth orbits the sun on its axis, the moon is the satellite of the Earth. As the astronaut is up in space they use technology such as space probes to gather information about the environment around them, so scientists can use the information to get a better understanding of our aging universe.

This is our paragraph on some words given to us by Mrs Anderson about space.

Rongoa Information Report

Did you ever think that it was possible for people to use plants for medicine? Back when the earth was still young, Maori people used Rangoa, which is their traditional medicine from different plants. These were the treasures of Tane, the God of the forests. People have benefited from these medicines for generations. They have been passing their knowledge down through families and whakapapa.

For centuries, Rongoa has been traditional Maori, ecological medicine which has been of benefit and usage for a long time. It has been important to Maori culture, because Rongoa was their history and what they value highly.

Not many people know that Rongoa is a tradition, that represents the passing of the Maori history, and what the Maori people valued most. In the past, Rongoa meant the healing of the whole body. Tohunga, were the healers and guardians of knowledge. They were priests, and scholars who were well educated in the field of Rongoa. They were the people who handed out the medicines. By knowing your bloodline, they know when we have a reaction to a wound or not.

Manuka is one of the many environmental plants which has been used as Rongoa for a very long time. When the Manuka bark is crushed and boiling water has been assimilated together. The cooked liquid is poured onto burns or rubbed onto bruises to ease the pain. When the boiled Manuka leaves are in the water, if you inhale vapour, the leaves ease head colds.

Rongoa has been of benefit to humans for centuries, and it is all thanks to the Tohunga who have passed down their knowledge of healing to their whakapapa. These treasures are dangerous in the hands of people who have no knowledge of how to use them, and what plant to use.

Why people migrate to New Zealand?

Our task was to explain in our own words why people migrate to New Zealand. The skill we were practising was to find evidence to support our thinking.

Migration Paragraph

New Zealand is a multicultural society that has a diverse population. We are tolerant of the change that has been done because of migration and accept the differences of everyone around us. We all shows respect to each other’s ideas and beliefs. We adapt and include everyone’s cultures for the sole purpose of living in harmony.

This is a migration paragraph that Kapri, Pah Nwee and I wrote. The highlighted words are the words related to migration.

Bee Pollination

Pollination

Pollination

What is pollination?

The transfer of pollen from the anther of a flower to the stigma of the same flower or of a different flower.

What role does the bees play in plant reproduction?

Reproduction happens when bees transfer the pollen of the male anther to the female stigma.

How plant reproduction processes produce much of our food?

Plant reproduction processes produce our food because when they collect pollen they help the plants to grow veggies and fruits, also our dairy products.

This term we are learning about sustainability, so that reflects to bees.
