Gravity explanation

Kia Ora!

Today my class had to write explanations about gravity.

It was hard to have ideas about gravity since I don’t know much.

It was very fun to write paragraphs of how gravity makes a huge impact on our life’s.

Here is my explanation I hope you learn something!

 Do you wonder if there is gravity anywhere in space?


What is gravity?

I will tell you what gravity is, who discovered gravity and what gravity does for us. Gravity is something that draws all objects, creatures and everything to earth including us. It’s something in the earth that sticks us to the ground. Some scientists think that the black hole in the centre of the Milky way is the cause of gravity.

 

Who discovered gravity? 

There is a person who discovered gravity 300 years ago, his name was Isaac Newton. He was just sitting under an apple tree, when an apple fell on him. He thought of why things fall down and never stay up? He researched until he found out that everything that goes up will always go down because we have gravity.

 

What does gravity do for us?

Gravity makes us stay on the ground. The gravity on earth pulls us towards the centre. There is no gravity in space, that is why no one can survive in space without special suits. That is the reason why we walk with our feet on the ground and the reason we carry our weight, however if earth didn’t have gravity all objects would be up in space orbiting forever. I wonder if there is gravity anywhere in space? If there was no gravity nothing would be on the ground.

Conclusion

I learnt that nothing that goes in the sky stays there because of gravity. I find it cool how gravity pulls us to the center of the earth. I think that gravity is really important because everything would be floating, including us.

 

 

 

Miss P cooking

Last week on Friday I was replaced and did cooking with room 8, Zaina, Utu and Abraham.

We had lots of fun and cooked spaghetti with meatballs.

We made the sauce, made the meatballs and fried the meatballs.

It was delicious and we even set up the table. We invited Miss Mackenzie to eat with us and she loved it.

I gave some to my brother and he loved it as well. Thank you Miss P! 😃

 

 

 

 

Baking

One summer hot day on the 16th of January, my mum, siblings and I made cinnamon rolls and donuts for our afternoon tea.  I helped my mum gather and prepared the ingredients milk, eggs, flour and some more.

It was such a fun thing to watch my mum needing the dough, after my mum needed the dough we let the dough rise in a bowl covered in plastic wrap for 1 hour.

Soon later the dough rose, my mum and my siblings shaped the dough to look like a donut then got a tray and then we baked them. It turned out chocolatey and glazed, Yum!
