After we wrote the synonyms and antonyms of peace, we split our group into 2 & 3. Then we went onto our first DLO which was on a slide. On the slide were pictures and we had to describe the pictures by using three words. We also had to make sentences using those three words. Also in each picture we had to write the perspectives of each side. Next we had to describe what peace meant to us on a Google Drawing.

Trench warfare


LI: to learn about trenches
This week we learned about trenches and how they were used. Before World War One people used trenches to trap the enemies, and shoot them down with Bows and Arrows. Nowadays people use trenches for defence. So in our slide we wrote about the bad health conditions, and about the trenches. We also talked about No Mans Land. No mans land is in the middle  of the trench's. The reason that it is called no man's land is because no one wants to go there.

Digestives system

LI. To define digestion. This week for Inquiry we had to finish the compulsory tasks. Victoria and Farzana did this presentation. Farzana used my research skills in order to find some of the information. We explained two of the related organs that help the digestive system such as- Liver, and Kidney. The kidneys wash the blood and take all the waste products from the blood into the gallbladder which gets stored then released.


Earthworm digestive system


The earthworm digestive system is a complex cycle, the cycle starts with- prostomium, pharynx, esophagus, crop, gizzard, intestine, and anus. A digestive system is a group of organs or body parts helping something or someone digest the food they have been given or eating.

Earthworms swallow food through the mouth. A flap, called the prostomium under the mouth holds the worm’s food in.

The food travels down to the pharynx. It gets lubricated in mucous, which makes it slimy and slick.

The slimy food travels down the esophagus. It gets mixed with calcium carbonate which neutralizes the acid.

The crop is a storage zone. The slicky food gets mixed together again.

The gizzard churns and mixes the food. The gizzard churns the food for the earthworms because they have no teeth to grind the food themselves; in the food there is very tiny rocks and sand grains that helps grind the food, also a chemical digestion starts in the gizzard.

The paste then travels to the intestine. The volume of the earthworm body is made up of the intestine, the food passes through the earthworm and intestine, while it travels through kind of bacteria starts to break food down, so the blood vessels that line the intestine can take in the nutrients into parts of the body.

When all the waste travels to the end of the intestine the anus will take all the waste out so it can be a healthy earthworm. It will release its urine, the digestive system’s style is a complex cycle or system.

Prostomium covers mouth, food in pharynx, into esophagus, crop stores food, gizzard churns food, travels intestine, exits anus.

This process or cycle is like the human digestive system because humans have acid in the stomach that breaks down the food or chunks we have not chewed.
LI. To compare digestion in humans and other living organisms. This week for inquiry we had to finish the compulsory tasks. Farzana wrote an eighteen sentence explanation because we did this for writing. We did the earthworm digestive system. I think the earthworm digestive system is complex. Farzana got one credit for my group, we now have sixteen credits in total.

The Digestive System
LI. To describe the stuctures and perspective functions in the human digestive system. This week for inquiry we had to finish the compulsory tasks. Farzana drew the digestive system she tried her best. Farzana got two credits for The Quizzers which is my group. We are now on to eighteen credits. My group is trying to get twenty five credits so each one of us can buy one question. 


Digestive System Word Ring

 
LI. To explain what the main organs in the digestive system do. This week for inquiry we had to finish the compulsory tasks. Mojtaba, Matthew, Lukah, and Victoria did this activity. They got two credits for this. We had to write the main organs in the circle and the out it the more unrelated the organs are. We coloured the circle in our favourite colours. my favourite colour is red, Matthews favourite colour is blue, Victorias favourite colour is baige and Lukahs favourite green. Farzana favourite colour is cyan. Then we had to write a description.

Sensitivity

LI. To define sensitivity and describe the structures and respective functions in the human nervous system.
This week for Inquiry we had to do tasks that is based on sensitivity. We had to do the elictive and the compulsory tasks in order to get credits so we can buy questions. At the end of the term LS1 is going to have a quiz which is based on ‘Living things’, if we get five or more credits we can buy a question which will allow us to buy questions for the quiz to win at the end of the term. The Quizzers (us) in total have nine credits which means we can buy one question, if we have one more credit we can buy two questions for the quiz. We are called ‘The Quizzers’ because we like quizzes and we like winning quizzes. Our group contains the following people- Victoria, Farzana, Matthew, Lukah and Mojtaba. We chose these groups because everyone in the group is good at different things. Victoria is good at blogging, Farzana is good at multitasking and getting things done fast, Matthew is good at , Lukah is good at drawing, and Mojtaba is good at helping people.
