How are rainbows formed

 Hi readers
last week we were writing explanation and there were three topics to choose from and i chose to write about how rainbows are formed. I chose this because they are colorful and the other topics I already knew but I didn't on rainbows so I chose rainbows. I wrote a piece of explanation to show you how rainbows are formed here is my writing

How are rainbows formed?

Have you seen a rainbow? It is very colorful. You can not touch a rainbow, it is a light and you can only see it from a long distance. Read explanation to learn about how rainbows are formed.


A rainbow is made from light and a prism. If you shine your flashlight at a prism you get a rainbow. A rainbow is made when rain meets sunlight. The raindrops and sunlight act like prisms and flashlights. The sunlight goes inside the water droplet and it bends slightly and changes direction; this is called refraction. Note that no two people can see the exact same rainbow because each person is at a different angle and using different droplets of water. With that said, it is not possible to do it.


The colors on the rainbow are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Each color has a different wavelength and each one determines where the color should be. The color red has the longest wavelength because it is on the top of the rainbow, the colour violet has the shortest wavelength and that’s why it’s on the bottom.


Did you know that rainbows are actually full circles? Rainbows look like arches since we are seeing them from the ground. It seems like an arc but from the sight of a tall view such as a tall building, mountain or airplane but if you want to see a full circle rainbow, do not forget that you need to have sunlight and rain at the same time.


To make rainbows, you need sunlight and rain at the same time. Therefore, rainbows are rare and are colorful. They are very cool and stuff.

Description writing

 hi people
This week we have been writing a description writing about a tree in the middle of two paths and one path is bad and the other path is good.

I can see a ginormous tree in between two paths. There is a filthy gloomy path filled with rubbish and smells of disgusting dog dungy and it makes my nose feel uncomfortable. I can see a nuclear plant putting smoke clouds into the sky.

However, there is a second path on the opposite side with beautiful sunshine and a clean city and no rubbish or piles of dungy on the place and bright yellow sunflowers. There is also a deer at the start of the path. On the other path one half of the reww has fully grown and the other half has no green leaves at all and has a scary vulture staring at stuff and loudly screeching.

Writing about a monster

Hello
We have been reading a book called where the wild things are and we have to make up our own monsters using 4 animals and combining them together to make our monster then draw it. We have to also write a character description about the monster that we made.

The Talmingo looks like a monster which has a giant shell turtle. It has the pink head of a flamingo and the tall legs of a tall flamingo as well. The Talmingo monster has a very long tail from a monkey and wings from a sparrow bird.

It has a shell so it can protect itself from victims that could harm it by hiding inside it and it can also fly up in the sky because it has the wings of a sparrow. The monkey tail can grab items and the flamingo legs make it tall so it can reach stuff that is very tall and cannot be reached easily.

One of the personalities of the Tlamingo monster is very protective of itself because it has a giant shell to hide into and one of the other personalities is scared because it always hides in its shell and protects itself from victims that can attack the Tlamingo and kill it.

It existed from a smart monkey who knows how to use pots and cooking tools, took a flamingo, a sparrow and a turtle then cooked it and ate them up. Then all the parts grew and that is how the Tlamingo monster existed. 

Here is a photo of the Tlamingo monster

China has a capital city and the city is Beijing. Chongqing is the biggest city in China and it is 82300 kilometres long. China is the third largest country in the world. It is 9.597 million kilomters². China is a very, very big country.

One of the foods that Chinese people serve in China is peking duck which is roast duck with crispy skin. Chinese people also serve dumplings which are pastry filled with meat and vegetables and China also has food like noodles, rice, sweet rice balls, fish and dim sum. Dim sum is food served at a restaurant. Chinese people also serve hotpot which is a pot with spicy water or normal water and Chinese people put food in it and it cooks.

China has some celebrations that they celebrate. One of them is the Chinese new year and Chinese new year is 15 days long. There is also the qingming festival that they celebrate and the dragon boat festival they celebrate as well.

China has traditional dresses that they wear. During Chinese new year, people wear red because they get good luck because wearing red scares away the bad luck. China also has other traditional dresses like tang jacket which is also a traditional dress and also wear a dress called cheongsam.

Penguin information report

Hi
This week once we have finished our polar bear information report, we could choose another animal and I chose penguins to write an information report about. We had to get information from a book then a digital book and from the internet. Here is my report about penguins:

Have you seen a penguin before? They are flightless birds although some birds fly. Did you also know that penguins have good hearing and that one species called real can jump 5 feet? If you want to know more facts you should read on.

Penguins eat food like fish, krill and squid. They catch their food by swimming and catch them then eat them. If they do not eat food, they will starve and then die.

A penguin can swim 15 miles per hour and it is really fast. Their flippers are useful because they can catch their food easily. Their feet are webbed or connected to their body so they can swim really fast. 

Penguins have predators and dangers and those dangers kill them. Leopard seals, polar bears, killer whales and foxes kill them. Even rats and cats could kill penguins. Penguins also have natural dangers like pollution and global warming that can kill the penguins.

Penguins live in really, really freezing places like Antarctica, South America, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand but there is one that only the galapagos species lives in and it is on Galapagos island. The galapagos species does not live in the other places in the world apart from Galapagos island.

Penguins have two or one babies at a time. The baby egg is around 12 centimetres long and around 8 centimetres wide. It weighs about 400 grams. Newborn penguins can also be called chicks. When the chick dies, the mother steals another baby.

Penguins are interesting because they swim fast and keep warm by staying together in giant, humongous groups and waddle.

Polar bear writing

Hello people
This week we are learning to write an information report and we had to write a report about polar bears and here is my one:

Polar bear information report


Have you ever seen a polar bear? They are humongous and heavy animals with a lot of fur. They live in cold places, hunt, eat yummy food for them and survive. You should read more if you want to learn more cool things and facts about them.


Did you know that polar bears eat seals? Polar bears hunt their lunch down by waiting by a breathing hole. The seals pop out their heads because they need air. The seals cannot break the ice with their head so they have to breathe from a breathing hole instead. The polar bear hits the seal’s head and eats it. Polar bears eat seals because it is yum for them.


Sometimes humans hunt down polar bears with guns. They use the polar bear's fur to make stuff. Some other male polar bears kill some cubs. The mother is sad when the cubs die. Polar bears from global warming because the ice melts. Avalanches can also kill them because they are really, really gian t.


Polar bears live in freezing places like the antarctic. Polar bears also live in Russia, Canada, USA and more places. Polar bears live on thick ice and not thin ice because if they live on thin ice, it will break because they are way too heavy. So that is why they live on thick ice and not thin ice.


Polar bears are really tall. They are taller than humans. Their fur is transparent not white so this means that their fur is see through or clear. Polar bears are also really heavy and really big. They are good at swimming. While they swim, they have a layer of fat to keep them warm while swimming in cold water.


Polar bears are cool animals because they eat a lot and they have an interesting fur color. They weigh a lot because they are really big.
