I read a book about Sea & Sea life which was written by Laura Wade.

This book is about the Sea and Sea life underwater and what happens underwater.

The sea is made of salt water that contains every natural element known on earth - altogether more than 100 elements in the water.

The pacific ocean is the deepest as well as the largest. The deepest point in the ocean, and on earth, is the Mariana Trench at 11,303 metres above sea level.

The second exercise I did was a. A squat is going up and down with your back straight and your feet still and pretending your sitting on the toilet.

The last exercise I did was burpees. Burpees are going up and down like squats but when you go up you have to jump as high as you can and for going down you have to a quick press up.

This workout was quite challenging because the wall sits were making my legs shake.

Identifying Fractions

I created unit fractions and fractions by representing with pizza slices and squares.

First I did unit fractions. unit fractions are fractions that only have one in the numerator. I created the unit fractions with pizza slices and squares.

I read a book about earthquakes written by Laura Wade.

This book talks about how earthqaukes start, how strong they are and what to do in a earthqauke situation.

The location below the earth's surface where the earthquake starts is called the focus. Energy from an earthquake starts deep in the earth and moves up from the focus directly to the central point on the surface.

When a strong earthquake occurs you should follow these rules: stay calm, leave the area immediately, and head from the hills and up a steep hill.

I enjoyed getting to know more about earthquakes and what they did.

I read a book about the sea and sea life.

This book talks about what happens in the sea, how it was formed and why the sea is blue.

The sea is blue because the reflection from the sky which is blue that makes the sea blue to, but when a cloud overheads it cast a shadow on the sea.

A tide is the sea level rising and falling twice each day. You can see when the tide is rising when the water covers the beach. When the water stops rising it is a high tide.
