Water

Why the water group is important?

The water group is important because you need water for everything.Without it you would be dead.Water plays an important part in life,animals and humans need it.First water is what we need to survive. With out water for 3 days we will be dead and dehydrated.We also need water for washing clothes,drinking,watering plants and many more reasons.

Water also cleans us without it we will be unclean and dirty.The earth is 70% water so you can't avoid it. You have to have at least 7 glasses of water a day or you will be dehydrated.
Water is very unique and it make a real difference. Because other planets in the solar system don't have water which makes us unique.
By not drinking water you can get disease's.

 One of the diseases you can get by not drinking water is high blood cholesterol. Which can cause death.

Zombie Apocalype


Group:
Breanna,Ella,Nidhi and Deianira.

Aim:
-I want to investigate how to get water to survive the Zombie Apocalypse.

Things I need to consider:
-What happens if it doesn't rain?
-Where else can we get the water from?

   HOW TO GET WATER FROM THE SKY (WATER CYCLE)

-One way to get water is from the sky. This is the water cycle. The first way is Evaporation. Evaporation is when water from the lakes,rivers and oceans,rise in tiny particles into the clouds. Next is Consideration the tiny particles then get ready to fall from the sky (Rain). Then comes precipitation when the water from clouds fall making it rain.

Our model.











How it works:


  • The big filter is to catch rain water.
  • The small bucket on the right is also a filter.
  • It works by catching the rain water and going side to side to clean it.
  • When it is full it will tip into the small bucket with the tap attached to it.
  • If in case it doesn't rain the well is to store the water.
  • Because the water in the well it not cleaned,we can put it in the filtering system and then it will be cleaned.

http://storyofstuff.org/plastic-microbeads-ban-the-bead/


What are micro beads?
Micro beads are are small bits of plastic.. Micro beads also wind up in lakes and oceans. When Micro beads are wind up in lakes and oceans, fish will eat it because fish thinks that Micro beads are foods.


Why do they put micro beads in the face scrubs?
Because it helps get off dead skin.

Some products with micro beads are cheaper with the ones without micro beads.


Why we’ve been using micro beads?
Companies use it just for texture. Micro beads are cheaper than the natural exfoliates we used to use. It’s also an excuse to sell more stuff. Natural Exfoliates works so well that you can only use once a week.

What are some other names that they use instead of micro beads?
-micro beads can also be known as polyethylene,nylon,polypropylene,terephthalate,poly-methyl,methotrexate.


What other products  can micro beads be found in?

Avon,L'Oreal,Unilever,Simply Skin,Oral B,Johnson & Johnson,Bath and Body Works, Clean & Clear,Olay,Crest and many many more…….

What will happen If we keep using Micro beads?

If we keep using micro beads our environment will be filled with lots of little plastics floating in our oceans. Plus the fish we eat will have micro beads which means,we will have micro beads floating in our body.



I think i have achieved Lo 2 because i have told you what will happen if we keep on using micro beads.

Sierra Introduction.

Once there was a girl called Sierra. She is 10 years old. Sierra had bright blue eyes and long brown hair with a red ribbon attached to it. Sierra is a nice, calm and competitive girl she also likes baking. She was on camp with the school. It was a wide open place with trees and gardens spread as wide as the eye could see. It was a bright place and the sun was shining. Sierra decided to walk into the forests and admire the trees with her friend Annie. When they got half way through the forest a bell rang to go back to the camping site. Annie said “ We should go back,Miss Bell is going to be very mad. You know how she is”,.
“You go on I will be right behind you” said Sierra. So Annie walked back. Sierra was just about walk back when fairies started roaming around her. These fairies were very unusual looking. They had sparkling hair that shimmered in the sunlight. They also had mermaid looking tails and long braided hair. Their faces looked confused as if they never seen human before.
