My Endangered animals group project

We worked in groups of three. We did a mini-project together on Endangered Animals. Each person in the group was given a different animal to research. We had to put the information into our own words and we also had to add a video icon and link a video to the icon. Here is my group's work.

Blogging challenge: My Zoom out story

On the 10th April we played the Zoomout Game. This is a follow up post. The Zoomout Game is when you add an image to your blog, and start a story in the comment section. Other classmates add to your story in the comment section. Finally we had to create a story from what people said in the comments. These were the comments in my blog.

1.Johnny, the zebra, was heading towards the waterhole.
2.Suddenly he saw a hungry crocodile looking straight at him.
3.He decided to go to the other water hole as it was to dangerous to face the crocodile.
4. He turned around and raced off as fast as he could. He was dismayed to find a hungry crocodile at the other waterhole as well!

Here is my story made from the comments.


THE ZEBRA

Once there was a striped zebra. He was a very busy zebra. He was always running around the veld chasing small animals. His name was Johnny. Johnny's mom was very thirsty one day, so she asked him to go with her to the waterhole. It was far away. And so he started his journey to the waterhole. He arrived at the waterhole with his mom. He saw a crocodile at the waterhole.

Johnny was afraid of the crocodile. So was his mom. She ran off. So he turned around as fast as he could and ran away. He knew there was another waterhole close by, so he and his mom walked to the other water hole  and found another  hungry crocodile at thatwaterhole. He didn't know what to do! His mom didn't know either. They were both very thirsty.

There was no other waterhole close by. They walked back home without any water. He and his mom were very sad. My story has a sad ending. A week later the hungry crocodile found them dead in their house.The crocodile had a nice meal.

Blogging challenge: Global issues

This week we learned about Global Problems. We opened two websites: 
http://www.kidsgoglobal.net/the-issues 
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1AWEcGu1IfVTReSjrinmYPcU_C91Zyrqa-SRBsDjHjP4/edit#slide=id.p
We each chose a different problem and researched it. We added information in two headings:
a) What is the problem
b) What can be done about it.
Our collaborative slideshow follows.
