Taking Action ☔️

In my class we are learning about the environment and some of the issues. in this blog post is an argument about the environment.

Is there a drinking water crisis in the world?

In the world people are questioning is there a water crisis?  Due to recent studies by national geographic has confirmed that yes there is a world wide drinking water crisis.

The water crisis is an unfortunate result by humans dumping rubbish in the site of millions of gallons of water able to be used by humans.

The earth is 70 percent water while only 2.5 percent is drinkable.  out of that 2.5 percent of clean drinking water only 1 percent is easily assessable out of 70 percent of water only 0.007 percent is able to be drunk by the earth’s population of 6.8 billion people.

We need to conserve the water that is possible to use and then we will be able to save the water crisis. The water crisis affects everyone because food is made out of water, you need to bathe in water and you need to drink water to stay alive.

According to the national geographic website has stated the water crisis as a result of humans.

We need to save the water crisis to save the planet and to save any life on earth.

My Agency Target Explanation

Hello everyone I hope you've got a bowl of popcorn and your comfortable because it is going to be interesting. It starts of quite informative.

What is an Agency Target?

In grill 2.0  we have an agency target. The agency target is a learning matrix where the children in my class can put themself up on the target to hep them with their learning in grill 2.0 .

How does the agency target work?

The agency target can help the children in my class find out what their goals are. It helps them complete their goals so that they can have more goals that are even harder than their past goals.

What does the agency target do for your learning?

The agency target helps us know what our goals are so that we can work on them to get to agency.

The agency is not just a learning helper it is also a way to make us think while having fun. Here's my agency target

The Bahamas information report

Writing:
Bahamas, What?

The Bahamas is a small island just off the north east coast from cuba.The current population in the Bahamas is 394 404 thousand people and there are 25 athletes going to the Rio olympic games.

This is the bahamas flag
The symbolism of the flag is as follows: Black, a strong colour, represents the vigour and force of a united people, the triangle pointing towards the body of the flag represents the enterprise and determination of The Bahamian people to develop and possess the rich resources of sun and sea symbolized by gold and aquamarine respectively.

Did you know that pig swim in the ocean in the bahamas. The bahamas is also known as Pig Beach (also known as Pig Island, Major Cay, and officially Big Major Cay) is an uninhabited island (or cay) located in Exuma, the Bahamas, and known for being populated by many swimming pigs.


The most popular tourist attraction in the bahamas is Atlantis

Dominating the skyline on Paradise Island, this splashy, salmon-pink resort evocatively recreates the legend of Atlantis in a luxury hotel, entertainment complex, aquarium, and water park. Guests at the hotel score free entry into the popular 141-acre Aquaventure, a waterscape packed with high-speed slides, more than 20 pools, and a mile-long Lazy River Ride. In the marine habitat, hammerhead sharks and swordfish swim through sparkling open-air pools. Guests will also find many shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues on site. The fantasy sea theme continues throughout, capturing the imagination of young and old alike.



Did you know that the name Bahamas comes from the spanish term “baja mar”

The bahamas environmental issue:Greenhouse gas - a gas that "traps" infrared radiation in the lower atmosphere causing surface warming; water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, hydrofluorocarbons, and ozone are the primary greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere.
 
What is the bahamas trying to do to stop the greenhouse gas? They are trying to have farmers pay extra tax.

Did you know that  Bus 10 takes you downtown, along with 10A and 12. But bus 10A will take you through local communities so you can see how Bahamian people really live.

My favourite thing about GRILL 2.0


Image result for line of apple computers


My favourite thing about GRILL 2.0 is the learning spaces because there are a lot of space to fit the tack you are working on. For example say that you need to read in silence that is what the hide out is for. You can silently read without any distractions.

TTS = Traditional Teaching Style⏳


On Tuesday the 10th of May GRILL 2.0  went back in time to when the strap was in schools and the children were told what to do and when to do it. no one  liked it at all, and to think that past generation grow up in pain and torture. Let me tell you how it all fell into place. It all started as a normal day walking into the school and coming up to my class and seeing my class mates outside the classroom waiting for the teacher, or so I thought on the door was a sign that said do not enter until 8:50am. I looked into the classroom and to my  surprise I saw three rows of desks with name tags on them. there was a stack of books and dictionaries. at 8:50am we all had to go in a line and wait for the teacher to say we were allowed to go into class. We had to find our seat without making a noise an did we did we had to go out side and do pushups and burpise. As we sat down the teachers called the  roll then we did some work.
