Presentatoin

On Friday Mr. Wats came to our class to talk about habitats and how animals live in the arctic.
He tough us what kinds of different species of animals there are like penguins and seals (for example). Some of the things we learned were:
  • krill is one of the most developed animal.
  • krill is one of the most eaten animal.
  • krill lives up to only 15 years.
  • Animals usually come to the arctic in summer because all of the food is there then, because algae grows in summer because of the sun so the krill comes and eats it and then wales come to eat the krill etc.
  • Elephant seals fight for women (when they fight the person who wins gets all the women)
  • And the Leopard seals sing to the women.
I think Mr. Wats tough us a lot I really enjoyed listening to his presentation.

Questions:
  1. How did the krill species get so advance?
  2. Why do mothers of penguins only tend to feed and toughen on baby penguin but not the other?
  3. If there was no krill in the world would/could the rest of the animals still survive?
  4. Why do elephant seals slack around most the day?
  5. How much does an average elephant seal weigh?

  1. Hi I looked back at my classmates blogs (Kyle, Adrian, Jan) And I did the q's Mrs.M asked us to do:
    What did you notice that other classmates talked about? They talked about mostly the same things habitats, how animals survive.
    How did they structure their writing?
    Kyle did it more like Adrian just telling the information but I wrote down facts.
    What ideas did you forget that they reminded you of? Adrian and Kyle reminded me of putting some of my own opinions into my text. Kyle also put in more pictures and Jud explained adaptations way better than me.
    What did you like about your own writing?
    I really enjoyed writing my writing and reading it I understood it well so I think I did a good job.
