Camels explanation

Did you know that camels can go 30 days without water and drink up to 46 litres of water and camels have changed over time. Camels live in every hot area in Dubai where it is ever hot and sandy, it’s about 42० heat.

In Dubai where it’s sandy and hot and where it’s 42० you can’t find water so easily so camels have to eat cactus to get water from them to keep hydrated if you touch a cactus it will prick and hurt so camels have thick lips and they want feel the pricks. Camels eat cactus because there is not a lot of grass and plants in the desert and it mostly hot sands.

Camels can walk on hot sand because they have pads on their feets to protect them from the hot sand. In the hot sandy days how can the camels see through the sand? they have double eyelashes so the eyelash can keep the sand away from the eyes when they are walking through the sand.

How can camels percent their noses from the sand well the noses close up so the sand does not go up in there nostrils so they can go for a long time. Camels have humps on their back where they keep fat in it which they can use it as food in time they need to.

Camels can go a long time without food or water because they have humps on there back and inside they have fat which that is there food, they can go a long time without water because they eat cactus to get water from them to keep hydrated and they have thick lips to help them eat the cactus and camels have pads on there feets so they can walk through the sand and they have doubled eyelash to help the see through the sand.

This week Mrs Anderson's writing group was learning about camels and how they have changed over the time to live in the hot desist in Dubai. Did you know that camels can go 30 days without water in the most hottest area it is about 42० diggers and they can drink about 46 litres of water.

Three novels

I have been working on this DLO for a week and I have enjoyed working on this DLO because it was fun and shows what books I have been reading. One of the book that I have read is very interesting because a boy named August Pullman is born with a face difference and he just wants to be a normal kid like every one ales and the book is wonder. One of the funny books I have read is The phoenix of Destiny. Geronimo Stilton has to go back to the kingdom of Fantasy he goes by the wings of a phoenix to save the kingdom, Geronimo Stilton is a friend of Blossom the Queen of the fairies. I have read a lot of funny and nice, sad, interesting books.

Today we all made an DLO on how we can be an agent of change to help us set goals. We looked at how we could be agent of change in our own 2018 learning journey and one of my goals are taking a risk for my learning.

Chinese New Year

How is Chinese New Year Celebrated?

Like every other Country in the world we all celebrate something different. Today we are celebrating Chinese New Year. How did this very old tradition begin? There are a lot of different stories, but which is true? Well here's what we know about this celebration.

This day is a very special day that people all around the world are welcome to celebrate. The Chinese New Year Celebration lasts up to 15 days straight. It starts on a New moon and ends on a Full moon. People come together and feast on delicious foods like Egg Rolls, Noodles, and Shrimp. These foods are usually eaten on these days.

Hongbao (money inside a red envelope) is given to children and unmarried adults for good luck and wealth. On the last very last day of the celebration people light lanterns. This symbolises the people who have passed on.

Long ago there was an scary dragon that went by the name Meien. He went to the village nearby and scared everyone the animals too. One day a wise man came along and told the people “Meien is very scared of loud sounds, fire and the colour red”. The dragon went back to the village the next day and he gazed upon the people wearing red clothing. The people started to light torches, let off firecrackers and lanterns. The dragon began to get frightened and ran away further and further from the village. That is when the people from China started wearing red and gold on these days.

There are different animals for the 12 years in the cycle. This legend is very old as well. Once there lived an Jade Emperor. He couldn't choose just 12 animals to symbolise the different years. So he set a race. The Jade Emperor said the first 12 animals to reach his palace were the animals to represent the years. So the animals began the race, the Rat as coming first until he came across a river. Luckily the Ox was just around the corner. So the Ox carried the Rat on top of his head. But just as they were about to reach land the Rat jumped off his head and won the race. That is why the Rat is the first animal in our calendar and this year, 2018, is the year of the dog.

All of us celebrate something different. But that doesn't mean that the fun is over. That means anyone can join in the fun and entertainment. This is a very old tradition that  is exciting and will be celebrated in the following years to come.

A few days ago Shakaia and I worked together to finish this explanation about Chinese New Year. As we were working together we discussed what information to add into our writing to make sure that it was easy to read and made sense. I think we worked well together because we helped each other.
