Dodging trash: Indonesian surfer Dede Surinaya catches a wave in an isolated but garbage-covered bay on Java, Indonesia, the world’s most populated island.

 

Harder and harder to breathe: Air pollution, C02, and water vapor rise from stacks at a coal-burning power plant in the United Kingdom.

Waterfall of melting ice: In both the Arctic and Antarctic regions, ice is getting smaller. Here water is melting on an icecap in the North East Land of Svalbard, Norway.

Addiction to oil: Oil fields are yet another way we are killing our earth. Kern River Oil Field, California, U.S.

Nowhere to go: All of these tires end up in a desert dumping ground in Nevada, U.S.A.

 

All that's precious: The Mir Mine in Russia is the world’s largest diamond mine.

Naked: Sometimes this is called the Brazil of the North, because Canada has not been kind to its native forests.  Here is an image of logging (cutting down trees) on Vancouver Island.

Digital death: Massive quantities of waste from old computers and other electronics are typically shipped to poor countries for sorting and/or getting rid of them. Photo from Accra, Ghana 

Killer waste: On Midway Island, an albatross bird is dead from eating too much plastic.  This is a common sight on this island.

Stumped: What used to be a forest is now gone to build a reservoir. Willamette National Forest, Oregon 

Trashed: Brick kilns (an oven that is used to make bricks for buildings) is surrounded  by trash in Bangladesh 

Moving in: Here is a picture of the war on nature.  Cattle try to eat grass while they are next to a burning Amazon jungle, Brazil 

No space wasted: Mexico City, Mexico, population 20 million, density 24,600/mile (63,700/square kilometer), rolls across the landscape, where there used to be a natural habitat for plants and animals.

PARENT CAMP

Get the Beat Science Lab

Today in Year 5 the students participated in a science lab focused on finding their pulse and analyzing their heart rate.  Using the scientific method, the students did three different activities for thirty seconds (jumping jacks, running in place, and crunches) and formed a hypothesis to see which activity they thought would produce the highest heart rate.  Here is a video and some pictures of today's activity, enjoy!

                                

                              

Who we are

Welcome back! The unit we are working on is "Who we are" and we are specifically studying the importance of our body systems and keeping our bodies healthy.  The students have done various activities such as keeping a food and fitness log, graphing their data, creating posters on the 6 main body systems, and creating a "this is me" body systems cutout.  Here are some photos we would like to share with you!
