Invertebrate

Why do they do worm farming?

Compost food:

Manure

Organic materials

Moistier

Oxygen

These help worms do there job.

Worms will not survive for very long in compost if we
are not giving them what they need.

Earthworms take soil and organic materials through their
mouth but they only eat food that is wet not dry such as bread.

If a earthworm loses its tail it could regrow back unless a
important body part has ben cut then it will die.

Worms don't have eyes legs but they do have hearts.

There are 2 types of worms red worms and tiger worms.

Worms are associated to the sun.

Fractions - Maths DLO

Name: Sam

Date: 6th September 2018

WALT: Find out how to explain about the different types of fractions.

There are about 5 different types of fractions such as proper fractions, improper fractions, mixed fractions, whole fractions,  proper fractions is when the numerator is bigger than the denominator, so with improper fractions it's the same as proper fractions except it's opposite so the denominator is bigger than the numerator.

So whole factions are when the denominator and the numerator are the same and both equal to 1.

Example:

     Whole fractions         proper fractions improper fractions

              5 = 1                8 = 12 6      = 11

              5                  4 5

So Zero fractions are also one of the fractions but they were only named that because they add up and equal to zero so no matter what they always add up to

zero.  Zero Fractions   

Example:       8 = 0

                     0

Holiday story

Name: Sam

Date: 8th Feb 2018

WALT: write a story about our Christmas Holiday.

Success Criteria:

• I have to use different sentence starters.
• I have to use adjectives and adverbs effectively.
• I use capital letters and full stops correctly.
• I must have a very interesting begging.

It was not very long till Christmas so me and my family were very very busy preparing for the Celebration I don't really like preparing for Special Occasions because i'm always told to do this and that and it just keeps on coming,  but when we are preparing the little kids will have to wait outside just till we're finished, and the big kids had to stay and help prepare. Now i'm sure you should already know why little kids shouldn't be getting in the way and i'm also pretty sure this happens to most of yous who have a very busy families, i'd rather be them then stay in the house and keep getting told what to do.

When we finally finished their was only one thing left to do decorate the Christmas Tree, but I was way to igsausted and fall asleep but my siblings and cousin weren't, they were so excited they couldn't sleep but anyways under the tree were heaps of presents for all the children and some adults and the kids. They were very excited for what they were getting I was too but just too tired.

In the morning on Christmas eve we got bored and it was a beautiful sunny day so we went for a family picnic at the beach. Once we were packed we headed off to the beach, when we arrived there were heaps of people and we were very excited so quickly we ran out the car.

Title: Composting

---

Writing:

What is composting: Well composting is stuff that helps plants grow better that's when the worms come in, Composting has a lot of nutrients in the soil that comes from your food or fruit scraps the food scraps becomes compost because of the worms, as you put your scraps in your compost bin the worms break them up in there mouths and it than becomes like planting material after your compost is finished it should be time for planting. Composting is good for the environment just like recycling and it also saves money so you don't have to buy compost when you can make it.

Worms are quite important in NZ  as I said about worms in the compost worms help develop the soil that way it helps the plants grow better, worms may not have legs arms or eyes but they can regrow their tail unless it was cut at about 90 degrees, worms only eat food that is damp not dry so while it's making compost if you give it dry foods like meat of course the worms will not eat it they'd rather leave it there to rot. So worms come from a big part of NZ you find them under your bins in the grass or in the dirt a lot of birds like to eat worms so it's best worms stay hidden where they can't be found.
