Food chain narrative


Once upon a time me and my friends went to go sit on the rocks to feel the water and my friends names are Mele and Kamryn and plus there was heaps of lovely stuff there so we put our jackets on and headed to Pt England Beach.  Once we got there, me and My friends went to sit on the rocky shore and saw nothing came out of the water and you can tell something was going on. So I jumped into the water without taking my stuff off and saw at the bottom of the rocky shore was no algae I was shocked and it felt like I was going to drown so I swam back up and tell my friends everything so we had to do something about it.  We were wondering why the fish had died but my friend Mele finally figured it out and she said “ That because it was winter the suns not there to feed the algae and the algae is dead so the fish are dead to and maybe the starfish are dead and the octopus and the fur seal are dead to. So me and my friends had to think fast, we had an idea we were thinking maybe we can use filament to make a coral reef and wait for the algae to grow on the coral reef and the algae will have energy to make our fish healthy again so we all got to work. I was the one who was going to draw the coral reef and my friend Mele was going to get the filament and my other friend kamryn was going to ask her boss if she can use the 3d printing machine But to be honest it was hard to do all that work in 5 days but we were able to manage it.  Once we were able to get the machine we all carried the bits of coral reef underwater but when we tried lifting it and it was heavy so I asked my brother if he can help us carry it into the water we carried it in the water and it worked we were waiting for the fish to come out of the water but my friends told me that we should go home and come back tomorrow so that is what we did. When we got home I had a shower before I went to sleep and I was so curious to see what was going to happen. The next morning me and my friends went diving to see if the algae was growing, Then what we saw was amazing we saw the algae and we saw pauas growing onto the rocks. we were so happy when we saw that and paris the paua was happy now and we did a good job.

Slimy taste test!

Slimy taste test
On Monday  Morning Room 9 did something special with Mrs Sio. 
Mrs Sio told us some rules and the rules where To Find a buddy and my
buddy’s name was Mariko. We used my jumper because I wanted too and
with the jumper you have to put it on your Eyes and  you or your buddy can
put it on you, After that, you have to wait until you have a napkin in your
hand or you buddy’s hands and when everyone has there napkins Mrs Sio
will put a Cockroach in your napkin.

Once you have it in your napkin your buddy that has it’s blindfold on will
eat it and its legs are cut off and it’s shell to so we good with that.

I had the blind fold on first.
So is was kinda scary because if I was going second I  would know
What it looks like And I will see my buddy’s reaction So I was pretty terrified.
But when I got The cockroach I was pretty scared because all I heard was
People going Eww but  I just stuck it into my mouth and chewed and chewed
and chewed and I even had to block my nose and it was still yuck and the
feeling was squishy and soft and even slimy when i just finished chewing it 
tasted like a raisin so I told My Teacher If this was a raisin.

And she said yes and I felt better!

Crabs


We had to pick a sea creature and do research about and what I chose was a crab!

Interesting fact about a crab!


We had to learn other marine creatures so me and my friend  chose a crab!

Animal facts!

Animal Facts:   Octopus 

Name, Scientific & Te Reo name:
Scientific name : Octopoda 
 Te Reo name:: kōti 


Photo/Picture:

Image result for octopus camouflage





Dietary:
Fish,Starfish,algae,crabs,snails,slugs,
Shrimp and small fish 


Habitat:
Under rocksand  and in a tiny cave and if it were in an aquarium it will live under small little gaps 
Life span: 
An octopus can live up to 3 or 5 years
And if a female gave birth to babies the 1mother will die 


Appearance:
Their tentacles look like curls and they kinda look like an umbrella. 
Characteristics:
-Octopus are different to other animals because they have 3 hearts.
- They have 9 brains, 1 is in the head and the others are in it’s tentacles 
- Octopus can camouflage but they are colour blind.
Size: The longest octopus is up to 14 to 30 feet long And the smallest octopus is 1.5 cm
Locomotion:
Octopus has two ways to move they can use their arms to move around when there hunting and when.The second one is when they the force of the water  squirting out pushes the octopus along, allowing it to swim backward through the ocean. This is called jet propulsion. 


Sensing:
Smelling and seeing.







Interesting Facts:
1. Octopus has 3 hearts because Two hearts pump blood  to the gills and the heart in the middle will go into the rest of the octopuses body! . 

2. Octopuses have blue blood so they can survive in the deep ocean. 

.3Also octopuses have 9 hearts one heart is in the middle and the rest of the hearts are in the octopus tentacles so octopus tentacles have a mind of their own. 

4.They can also camouflage.  But scientists are still working out how they can octopus can camouflage but they can’t see colour and plus they are colour blind. 






Animal report

Animal Report: Title: The Octopus Introduction:

 What do you think Has 9 brains and 3 hearts and lives under the sea? And also what scientists are still confused why this animal can camouflage but they are colour blind? … and no it is not a squid, it was an octopus!

 Locomotion: Locomotion means how do animals move around with no legs to walk with 
So octopus has two ways to move they can use their arms to move around when there hunting for food.
 The second one is when the force of the water is squirting out and pushes the octopus along, allowing it to swim backward through the ocean.And this another way for octopus to escape their predator This is called jet propulsion.

 :Size Size means how big are they! And how small are they! 
The longest octopus is up to 14 to 30 feet long And the smallest octopus is 1.5 cm And did you know that scientists are still confused why octopus can camouflage but they are colour blind?


:Life span Life span means how long can they live? 
An octopus can live up to 3 or 5 years and if it were a mother and the mother would lay eggs the female octopus will die so the father will take care of the little babies

 References/Resources: So I got the information from google I typed up life span and it comes up with all the information that you need to put on your document. And plus Google is one of the smartest internet subjects in the world.
