The Earth's Spheres!
Atmosphere
The Atmosphere is the gases (Air) that is
surrounding us.
Biosphere
Biosphere is all the living this that is
surrounding us. Including Trees and Plants.
Hydrosphere
Hydrosphere is the part of the Earth
where there is water.
Geosphere
Geosphere is land and all the small minerals.
Sunlight
This is probably the most important need for
all living organisms, because it is the source of
all energy. It also provides heat for plants and animals
Water is the medium in which living cells and tissue
work. Water is also a living environment for many
plants and animals
Air
Air is made up of several gases, but the two mos
t important gases are Oxygen and Carbon dioxide.
Without oxygen, animals will die, and without
carbon dioxide, plants cannot survive.
Food
Living things need energy for function. Energy is needed
to grow, reproduce, move, and to work. Think of what will
happen if you stayed for three days without food.
The Earth’s Spheres Biosphere, Geosphere,
Atmosphere and Hydrosphere all work
together to create an ecosystem, including
Forest, River, Grassland, Tundra, Desert and
Taiga. These ecosystems are all made up by the
Earth’s Spheres.

My First Roller Coaster Ride!
Title: My First Roller Coaster Ride
|
Orientation
It was sunny morning. As I jumped out of
bed and looked up at the ceiling I felt a
cold shiver run down my body. I felt
terrified and excited at the same time
to ride on a roller coaster, it was my
first time after all. I was 10 years old,
and was finally tall enough to meet the
height restrictions for the ride. My Dad
took me and my sisters to the Fair and
we all waited in line.
|
Complication
At that time, I was imagining riding the
roller coaster, a terrible thought washed
through my head about vomiting.
I couldn’t take my mind off that, so I
tried to think of something that would
help me not to vomit while on the roller
coaster, but it also did not help me.
I felt very distressed and helpless,
I did not know what to do. This was
a big problem for me. My face turned
red and I began to feel really hot
because of the stress that I was in,
I knew from past experience that
feeling like this was probably going
to MAKE ME SICK!
|
Resolution
It was almost time, there were
only a couple of people in front
of us. Looking at the roller coaster,
I had butterflies so I asked my sister’s,
“Could you give me some tips to help
me not to stress out”?. They told me
that the best way is to try and relax
but to also have fun at the same time.
It was finally our turn, I climbed into
the chair and I sat down, Then off
we went. I felt very relaxed. As I
breathed in Whoosh! The air made
my whole body shiver, running past
my face and my ears almost like I
was making a funny face. I felt a bit
dizzy, But it didn’t ruin my fun.
As we came to the end of the ride,
I quickly got out of the roller coaster.
I raced to get a drink of water just in
case I was going to vomit, but
it turned out for me that I didn’t vomit at all.
|
Ending
I was so happy that I finally took
a chance to ride on a roller coaster.
I can’t wait for another chance for me
to take another ride - so that I would
be able to get used to riding on a roller coaster.

Farmers Sheep
I began by adding 3 sheep's on each corners. Then I separated each sheep and added it to each square. I had to rearrange all the sheep's formation so that the farmer would be able to see all 25 sheep from each window of his house.
Problem:
A farmer can see nine sheep if he looks out of any of his four windows. His wife buys him a new sheep. Which paddock would the new sheep can be put in so he can see nine sheep from each of his window.
