Salt

Today we talked and learnt about salt .I also learnt that a teenager need 1,500 mg of sodium per day. 
Having to much salt can make your heart work faster and can lead to stroke. Eating fresh fruits and vegetable can help you balance your salt, you can also not putting salt on your food.

He named New Zealand Nouvea Zealandia.
The next explorer to come to NZ was Captain James Cook and he arrived in 1769.
The navigator that helped Captain Cook was Tupaia.
The Europeans brought pigs, potatoes, ship rats and disease.
Then there was the musket war, it ended in the late 1830s.

  
                                                  
                                                                                                                    

Adverbs

Adverbs give the reader more detail about actions.

For example, Yesterday I walked to the dairy.
Yesterday I walked quickly to the small dairy.

I added quickly and small to the sentence to give the reader more information.

The bird sang a song.
The small white bird gracefully sang a song.

The singer was good.
The beautiful singer was really good.

The Martians Movie Review

The Martians
Prior Knowledge: Before watching, what do you predict this movie might be about just from the title and the movie poster?????? 

I think that it is about an astronaut stranded in Mars. 


10 minutes: Pause. What have you noticed so far? Fill in as many of these categories as you can: 

Characters: Mark Watney, Chris Beck, Beth Johanssen, Malissa Lewis/ Commander, Rick Martinez, Alex Vogel, Teddy Sanders and Mitch Henderson.

Setting:  Mars and Earth

What have you seen? Three details

  1. Mav Space craft   
  2.  Storm 
  3.  Mark Watney left behind  

What important events have happened? Record big moments as you watch.

First, He needed to get water for the plants and he used their poop for the soil. 


Then, He needed a heater but he can turn it on. The people in NASA saw things being moved around.


Next, They have to figure out how to communicate with mark.

Ending: what happened? 
Hermes made a plan to catch Mark, then the commander grabs him and they made their way to the ship. A few years later there was a new mission. 


Did any of your predictions come true?
I was right about a person being stranded in mars.
