Learning and Sharing with America: Sport

As you know we have been working with some children in America. They have asked us to answer some questions about our country so they can learn lots about beautiful New Zealand.

Collin and Jordan have decided to answer a question about sport. They have chosen to speak about rugby.

Jordan's Weekend

How Are Volcanoes Made

To understand how volcanoes are made we need to know what the earth looks like from the inside.
Jordan has drawn this picture in Kidpix to help us understand what the earth looks like.



The outer layer of the earth is known as the crust.

Under the crust is an intensely hot layer of dense rock called the mantle.

Inside this mantle lies the core, which is made up of an outer layer of liquid metal and a dense inner core of solid metal alloys.

The core is really hot, hotter than anything you know, it can be as high as 5000oC.

Heating and cooling that occurs in the core causes the magma from the mantle to rise near the surface of the earth. When it does force its way to the surface, it can cause earthquakes and form volcanoes.

Jordan Would Like To Work On A Farm

At Ambury Farm the pig had a hairy back and the
piglets had a curly tail. The pig had a dusty back.
The piglets were greedy. Next we saw the sheep.
The sheep had soft wool. It nibbles the grass. After
the sheep we went to see the chickens. They had a
sharp beak and they bit my hand. Did you know
that a chicken lays one egg a day? I want to work
on a farm because I like the sheep.

Jordan Uses Word Groups To Describe The Beach

On a hot sunny day the people were jumping over
the rolling waves and the people were sunbathing.
The dog was leaping for the frisbee.

Floating Bubbles By Jordan

The shiny bubbles float up, up into the air. Room 8 chased them,
it was fun. Room Eight popped the bubbles as well. When we
popped the bubbles it was wet.

Welcome to Room 8 Jordan

Jordan is back from his holiday in Australia and has made a great start to the year.
He has recorded this himself in imovie. This is the first time he has used imovie and he has done a great job in recording what he likes and what his learning goal is.
