The water cycle is why it seems like we have infinite amounts of water; why we will theoretically never run out; why we never have more or less water; it is always the same amount, this cycle is made up of 5 main stages, these stages are: Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Runoff and groundwater. The technical first stage is Evaporation.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Evaporation is when your water in its liquid form changes into a gas, this gas is called water vapor, this happens faster in places with high amounts of humidity, humidity happens in hot places like a rainforest, when the water evaporates into a gas it then floats into the atmosphere, this is when we get to the next 2 stages, Condensation and Precipitation.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Condensation is when the water vapor that is in the atmosphere condenses together, this is what we call clouds, and these clouds are always been filled with more water vapor until they get to full it begins to rain, this process is Precipitation, Precipitation isn't only rain though it is also snow, hail, and sleet, these are all dependent on the temperature when the clouds precipitate, as well as there being multiple types of Precipitation, there is another form of condensation which is fog, fog is a very dark thick cloud that can only be found very low to the ground, and after the Condensation and Precipitation comes the Runoff and Groundwater.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Runoff is when the precipitated water hit the surface of the land and “runs” down into lakes and rivers, the water the gets into river then flows out into the ocean and the cycle resets, the water that runs into lakes instead of flowing into the ocean it stays in the lake until it evaporates, another thing that can happen, instead of the water running down the land is infiltration which is when the water seep through the earth and into underground lakes and river this is called groundwater and once the water is underground it is then stored in a aquifer and transferred to our home to use for toilets, showers, etc.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So now we know the stages of the water cycle and how they work, and that's all right? Wrong something that's even more important for you to know is to never pollute the ocean, lakes or rivers, because sometimes that pollution can be evaporated along with the water, and so it can taint our water supplies and spread disease, so if you don't want that to happen then keep the water clean, we need to look after the water and our own well-being. (don't be dumb).</div>

<div>
The one area of CARE that I need to work harder in is: Library. Because, I dont have any ticks in that area.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To show my leadership qualities I am a role model to others in the CARE values by doing/showing these leadership traits: Motivational and trustworthy.</div>
<div>

This is proof that I have achieved 90% in my task.</div>
<div>
Here is an example or the maths task I had to complete: </div>
<div>
What is the percent of increase from 50 to 100. Answer 50.</div>
<div>
This is because the 50 is half of 100 and 50 percent is the same as 1/2</div>
<div>
so the increase is 50%</div>

And of course the great Super<span style="background-color: #38761d;">-</span>Apple new it must of been the Super Evil Villain Rotten Apple<span style="background-color: #38761d;">!!!</span> So of course Super-Apple rushed down to the ruble to see if he could find the person responsible for the destruction. But when he got he found no one, not even the body's of the people that should have been in the building. The only thing that he could find was a piece of paper with a bunch of words and a derpy picture. On the piece of paper it said <span style="background-color: #38761d;">“</span>meet me at the back alley on sixth street<span style="background-color: #38761d;">”.</span></span></div>

When he woke up he was back at his house lying on the floor, besides feeling a little sleepy he felt pretty normal until he stood up and froze his bedside table after sneezing, at first he thought that he must have been dreaming but soon realized that he was wide awake, and first thing that came to mind was that he needed to gain and master this “power”.</span></span></div>
<span id="docs-internal-guid-e0ef2910-effd-299b-d95f-42865edea7a3">

<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A year later he after mastering his new power, he discover that he could do more than freeze things. He could also fly as well as that he was super strong, and he could even shoot fire from his hands, and in that year he was able to somewhat master all of these powers, and now he thought that he was ready to hunt down Rotten-Apple.</span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">He was in the sky <span style="background-color: lime;">searching</span> for a trace of Rotten-Apple, and just when he was about to give up he spotted a massive trail of destruction that must have been caused by Rotten-Apple, so he followed the trail to the point where it ended, and it ended at a mountain. So stupidly he decided to destroy the mountain until he found something, and what he found was a hatch that was in front of the mountain, so basically he destroyed a mountain for no reason at all. And once he actually saw the hatch he flew straight down into what must have been a trap.</span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">And as he soon found out it was a trap as he fell into a pit of quicksand, at first he thought that he was going to die, but then he remembered that he had acquired super powers so he just froze the quicksand and then broke out using his super strength then flew up to a door that he had seen on his way down to the pit. On the other side of the door was a massive circular room was a small round apple man, as Super Apple closed in on this mysterious man he realized that it was Rotten Apple! Now at this point Super Apple thought that it would be an easy flight now that he had powers, but what he didn't realize was that he wasn't the only one with powers….</span></div>
<br /><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“What took you so long?” Demanded Rotten-Apple, obviously annoyed by how long it took Super-Apple to find him. “Sorry, before I could get here I had to escape from one of your traps. No-not that I had any trouble escaping or anything like that.”said Super-Apple trying</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">(And failing) to hide the truth. “Well, anyway let the battle begin!” Announced Rotten-Apple, “ you seem pretty confident in yourself, but what you may not know, I have super powers.” <span style="background-color: lime;">Announced</span> </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Super-Apple feeling pretty cool about himself. “ I know, that's why I went ahead and gave myself my own, powers.” Said Rotten-Apple.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 20px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Annoyed at this statement Super-Apple Sprang into attack and froze Rotten-Apple, and that's when the battle finished, Because there was no way to break out of the ice, so the battle kind of finished before it started, and since then the people of sector 4 were able to rebuild the building that was blown up, and nothing else bad has happened.</span></div>

Personally I do truly believe that Barack Obama is a better leader than Richie McCaw. My reasons for this are 1. Obama is a president while Richie is a rugby captain, 2. Obama has helped and changed millions of lives, while Richie beats an opposing team and keeps the fans happy for a while, and 3. Obama is a better public speaker, which is understandable because most of his job surrounds public speaking. You don't have to agree but this is what I think when comparing these two leaders.</div>

For reading, the 9/10 standard had to get watch videos about the three different types of writing, they were : Entertain,Persuade and Inform. Then once we had watched the videos we had to choose three out of selection of six texts. Once chosen we would write them down on a <a href="http://docs.google.com/document/d/1R6eBE_lr_HxwOsLdB05cn1VuJjzpNj59FYPTde0bIeU/edit">doc</a> then we would read the text and decide if the authors purpose was to inform,to persuade or to entertain then we had to write down three specific structure and language choices that the author had made for each text then we had to write down three structure and language similarities and differences.

For this activity we were given three texts to read all two were different opinions and the the third held texts for both sides, once we had read the texts we had to copy a doc that the teacher had mad for us, the doc was split in the middle because their are two sides of the argument, on each side we had to write down reasons/evidence for keeping the flag or changing the flag from the texts once we had finished writing the information down we had to highlight one of these four words: Common Knowledge, Personal Opinion, Statistics and expert opinion. We highlighted the one we thought fitted the most with the information we had picked out, next was at the bottom of each side of the doc and it was, <span id="docs-internal-guid-26a8c100-7d14-4a79-92d5-97d9b3e67135"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Overall the evidence for this side is strong</span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 14.6667px; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">/weak/uncertain… because. </span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">for that we had to highlight either strong,weak or uncertain and right why we thought that.</span></span><br />

On Wednesday the 2nd of March half of the year 8's down to the Oakland's food forest, because we needed to collect all the seeds and pull out all the plants.<br />
<br />
We went down to collect seeds with the year 4's, the first thing that the year 8's did was make 4 paper bags each and put them in box to take them to the garden, then we named and dated them for the the when and what plant was in there. Then the year 4's went into the forest and collected seed from the Red Clover and Borage plants and put them in the named and dated bags.<br />
<br />
after we were finished and had eaten our lunch the year 8´s went back out to pull out all the plants</div>

To do so we had to get into groups of two and either get a the paper copy of a worksheet or go into google driver and copy a shared doc version. On this sheet was notes and rules for your game that you would have to write down. Then we went outside and met up with the year 1's. The teacher explained to them what was happening then they sent three/four to each group. Then we took the juniors to a spot suitable for the game that we were going to play, my game was Tricky Tag.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0
