Here I will write what I learn and do in Inquiry Block.
Google Docs Investigations
I like google docs investigations. I think it's a bit like doing a post so everyone can see what we are learning about and comment on. I liked the "adding ing" doc and also the more or less than 1 litre investigation. FACT: The biggest concrete dam in Australia is the Warragamba Dam in NSW which holds 2 million megalitres of water.
Skyping
A couple of days ago we skyped Miss Rablin. I learned a bit more about how to skype. I don't know fully how to skype but I am learning. I only saw the end, but I would like to do more one day.
PLANETS AND THEIR MOONS
Today, the 10th of September, me and Ben d lernt about the of moons of each planet. Here are the number of moon that each planet has -: Earth 1, Mars 3, Venus 0, Jupiter 63, Pluto 1, Saturn 34, Uranus 27, Mercury 0 and Neptune has 13. A great website for information in space is http://www.kidsastronomy.com. You can learn about planets, moons, asteroids and comets. It is great. I love space.
MULTIPLICATION PICTURES
This first picture grid is 5 columns with 3 cars in each column. The sum is 5 x 3 = 15
The second picture is3 rows with 3 books in each row. 3x3=9
JUPITER
Space is a cool place. Mercury is 57 910 000 kilometres from the sun, Venus is 108 200 000 and earth is 149 600 000. Pluto is 5 913 520 000 kms from sun. The red spot on Jupiter is a storm that has been going for more than 100 years. Jupiter has at least 58 moons.
SPINAL CORD
Your spinal cord is really valuable. It starts way up high in the back of your neck and goes all the way down to the bottom of your back. We learned this today when 2 men came to visit our school. They both could not walk and had to use wheelchairs to get around because they had accidents and had damaged their spine. It is important that when you ride your bike your must wear your helmet and knee pads and elbow pads. You should also always wear a seatbelt in the car.
The Great Wall of China
The Great Wall of China is over 2000 years old. It is the longest man made construction. It was once guarded by one million men. It was built to protect the northern border of China from the nomads from Mongolia. The Great Wall of China is now a famous tourist spot.

Dragons are special to China. The Chinese believe they bring wisdom and good luck. I have made a bubbleshare to show some popular things in China.
