Cross country

On Wednesday it was the cross country I came 4 in the competitive race. My goal  was to go to the New Plymouth champs and I made it.

My highlight was doing laps around the school because it was the most easy to do. The New Plymouth champs was at Fitzroy.
We went up and down the hill for my training which I think was enough. Next year my goal is to go to Taranaki Champs.
I liked that there was a race and a relay cause I got to do more races.

An Invertebrate that Lives in a Shell

I wrote an information report about snails. It was an invertebrate that was found in our Frankley School Bush. I hope you learn something new.

An Invertebrate that Lives in a Shell

Did you know that snails can live for up to 2-3 years?  The garden snail is a common snail. It is that active at night or during wet weather.  They are slow at moving using slime to help them slide along the ground.

Appearance

Snails are small and slimy and have two long eyes.  An adaptation that it has is a hard shell to protect itself from predators as snails move very slow. They can be as small as a pinhead or as big as a football.

Habitat

Snails live in gardens and where plants are. The snails enjoy plant fungi and algae dipping where they live. Some snails eat worms.

Breeding

Two snails touch tentacles, rub mouths and make lots of slime when they mate. They breed in spring.Garden snails are hermaphroditic, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs. This means that each individual snail is capable of laying eggs.  Snails will typically choose to mate with a partner, a process that takes four to 12 hours.

Snails belong to the Mollusc Family.  This creepy crawly is known to everyone and if you see a trail of slime, be sure to watch under your feet!

Hiwi the Kiwi

Hiwi the kiwi came talking a band being safe on boats.  These are some of out fishing the stuff they talked about If you are going on something that is in the sea always were a life jacket.If you are going fishing on a boat take a wet towel and if you catch a fish and putting ng it back in the sea pick it with a wet towel because the scales on the fish are like sunblock to them and if you don't use a wet towel it could rub off the scales and then if you put it back in the sea it could die.And if you are going fishing take a bag with you so if you see  any rubbish pick it up because birds have been swallowing rubbish and thinking it is food and then die.And if you are going fishing take a ruler so you can see if   you can keep the fish.  It is best to throw back mums and babies for future generations.  And bring some Sat ice so the fish does not go of and all yacke. And if it is a mum fish put it back  in the water so there are fish for the future.
