After
Most of the world's active volcanoes are found along the edges of the tectonic plates.
The cinder(Is something that hasn’t being thrown in a volcano) ,Mantle(Is a Layer of hot mantle) rock. and a Molten( is a Materials that have been melted by the heat)
Pacific plates in the ring fire. That they make lots of hot rocks in the ring fire.

Letter to Once-ler ( Plan )

  •  Who - Once-ler,Lorax
  • What- Once-ler cuts down every trees in his town for money.

  • He should take responsibility and Reduce Reuse and Recycle. be Persuasive to him.Get him to not cut the trees.Change him




Letter
Marieta

Dear Once-ler,

My name is Lorax. I have heard you have been cutting all of the trees and have only done this for money. To reduce your waste you should plant lots of seeds after cutting the trees. To reuse you could change your machine into a machine that would make more trees. If you do not want to do that then you should recycle your machine you could get a hammer and smash until it is broken. If you don't stop this the humming fishes and the birds could die and there would be no more animals that would live in our town because of you. Maybe you should change. Why don't you give it a chance? You should reduce reuse recycle and never cut down trees or you could cut down the trees and recycle the wood and have the truffula tufts on the top then the tree could grow more tufts on the top.



LI: To persuade using reduce,reuse and recycle arguments.


This is my letter to the lorax.4 weeks ago we read a book called The Lorax.We done a lot of assignments on it.Today we had to write a letter to the lorax and try to get him to change.

  • What i know about taupo is that it is NZ 2nd biggest lake.I also know that when the volcano erupted the lava made a really really big hole and then when humans were made they filled up the whole with water and then Taupo was now lake Taupo
  • Lake taupo is in the north and is next to rotorua.
  • 26,500 years ago Taupo the volcano had erupted..Luckily there was no people living in NZ because if there were people would of died.Scientist knew there were no humans weren't there because there were no human making in the ash.
  • The book said the most recent taupo eruption was about 1800 years ago.
  • In china when the Taupo volcano erupted china record this,They knew this because it said on the book that there were ashes in the sky,The sky was dark,and the dust darkened the air which made the sun get blocked by something.

LI: to make connections with a text Today for reading we learnt about connections and lake Taupo.What i learnt about connection is that it is like connecting to something like text to text,Text to self and text to world.We had to read the book taupo and find text to text,Text to self and text to world.We also got a question to think of and find the proof for it.

The Frogs’ Race

The name of the story
Orientation
One day, a group of frogs decided to make a race and get to the top of a high tower.
A lot of people came to see them and give them their support, but the race had just begun and everybody was already saying that the frogs would not get there: « It doesn’t make any sense going on! You’ll never reach the top of the tower! »
Who's the character-Frogs
What happened-They had a frog race
Where it was-To the top of the tower
when it happened-Day time
The 5 w's and the h

Problem
Little by little, the frogs felt disappointed and discouraged, except for one of them that continued to run. And everybody cried out: « Give up! Give up! You’ll never get to the top! » Listening repeatedly to these negative words led the frogs to abandon the race after all, except for the one frog that, despite what people were saying, and though alone and with great pain, continued to run and finally reached the top.
What went wrong in the story
Events
Deeply astonished, the other frogs wanted to know how she had managed to do it. They came to her and asked her what her secret was.
And it was then that they found out that… she was deaf! And then the teachers all noticed too, and shouted: ‘Look at that bird!’. And then the whole school shouted: ‘LOOK AT THAT BIRD!’.
The main character thinks of a plan and use it to solve the problem
Solution
Take a healthy life attitude: Never to listen to people who are negative in their intentions. Be deaf to discouraging words and always follow your dreams to the end.
