Summer Learning Journey : Week 4 Protect and Preserve : Day 5: The Sky’s the Limit!

Hi bloggers, i have attended the summer learning journey 2018 - 2019. Here are my activity's.   

Activity 1: Environment Day - Beat Plastic Pollution [4 points] (To see the questions go on the summer learning journey site).
Here are 3 ways me and you can save and help our planet. Are you in? Firstly you could spread the word and try and convince people like i am now to recycle and look after our  environment. The first strategy is reduce reuse recycle. If you reduce, reuse and recycle our environment will be more healthy and reusing also means we won't have things going to waste. Secondly you should NEVER litter. Littering is something a lot of humans do. I litter sometimes myself too but lately i have been trying not too. Littering damages the environment believe it or not sometimes littering can cause pollution which is not good. Last but not least littering causes diseases, and start germs (spreading). Comment down below what if you think also spread the world. LETS SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT! 

Activity 2: Adoption Day [4 points]
The three animals i have chosen is a Loggerhead Turtle, Hawksbill Turtle and a Sea Turtle . To be honest this task is actually really hard as they don't have many similarities. So in that case i'll start off with their differences. If you are lost/confused i will be listing  similarities about these creatures and differences. The first difference is a Loggerhead Turtle is mainly found on beaches from Greece to Turkey and Israel to Libra. Where as a Hawksbill Turtle in tropical oceans and coral reefs. A Sea Turtle Hatch ling is found in any kind of beaches all around the world including Hawaii (etc..). Another difference is Loggerhead Turtle usually last 50 or more years but a Hawksbill Turtle lives up to 30 to 50 years and shockingly a Sea Turtle lives for 80 years! Wow!

A similarity about these animals is that their class name is a Reptile. Another similar thing about these creatures are that they are all carnivores a carnivore is a creature that eats meat a Omnivorous is something eats meat and plants.

Summer Learning Journey : Week 4 Protect and Preserve : Day 3: Taking Action

Hi bloggers, i have attended the summer learning journey 2018 - 2019. Here are my activity's.   

Activity 1: Predator Free 2050 – A Call to Arms [4 points] (To see the questions go on the summer learning journey site).
I have chosen the Cacophony Project because...
I believe that Grant Ryan is a inventor so i think that he is actually really smart and he would be perfect for the job. He's also trying to spread the word and show others what they can do. And he first created a plan and tried his plan in his backyard and if it works he could go into the wildlife.

Activity 2: Protecting the Most Vulnerable - Fact or Fiction? [4 points]
 1. Māui and Hector's are the only dolphins with a well-rounded black dorsal fin
2. Māui dolphin can 'see' with sound
3. They produce just one calf every 2 - 4 years, making population increase a really slow process
True or false?  I will put 4 facts down below 1 is  true and 3 are false. Comment down below which is true and which is false.

  • Females have their first calf (baby) around the age from 7 - 9 years of age.
  • Females grow to 1.5 m long and weigh up to 26 kg.
  • They only live up to 30 years.
  • Maui dolphins die from rats.
Activity 3: The Power of Ten [10 points]
I could only think of 5 sorry
 1. Elephants - They've been living on earth for centuries/years
2. Maui dolphins - Their are only 63 Maui dolphins left on earth
3. Amur Leopard - Their are only 70 that exists today it is also hunted and killed for it's fur
4. Tiger - Tigers have been hunted distinctive patterned fur
5. Rhino - Three of 5 species of Rhino's are alive
