World Ocean Day

Monday was world ocean day and we did some research into how humans are effecting our oceans. We also played a game that taught us some of the names and locations of the worlds seas and oceans. It is in the 'Other Links' tab on the right.

Here are some of our reports about marine debris, what it is and how it effects our seas and oceans.


Marine debris

Do you know that anything could be marine debris? Some people litter and don’t care. They don’t realise that they could kill an animal. Animals especially in the sea aren’t as smart as people. They can mistake a plastic bag for jelly fish
Causes   
Animals aren’t as good at seeing as humans. They could mistake anything for food.
Effects
Sea living animals die. If they die they will be left on the beach to create more marine debris.
What you can do to help
·      Don’t litter
·      Make sure when you put something in the rubbish it stays in the rubbish.
·      Recycle

Marine debris is when rubbish is in the water and kills sea life.
Main causes of marine debris are people littering and fishing nets falling over board, try not to let these things happen please!!!!
Main effects of marine debris are fish dying, turtles getting endangered, and having yucky oceans. Also in about 4 years the Great Barrier Reef will be gone because of marine debris.
What you can  do to help is stop littering and be careful where you put your rubbish.

By Josh

I’m going to tell you about marine debris.
Marine debris is when people litter on beaches and litter on water.

If you litter on water fish will think its food, and the fish will eat the litter.
We eat fish and if fish swallow litter we might the litter when we eat fish.

If we do not do anything we won’t want to swim at the beaches that have heaps of litter on them.    
 Do you want to swim on a beach with heaps of litter on it?

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP
You can go on trips to pick up litter. And when you see people littering tell them not to. Put you litter in a safe place when you’re on a boat. Never ever dump you net your fishing net when it gets tangled in a rock

Marine debris is when you put rubbish in the ocean.
If you put any of these things in the sea animals might die by Plastic, Rubber, Trash, Paper, Nets, metal, Plastic bags, Drink bottles and Rubbish.
Problem
If rubbish nets and lots of thing get in the sea or ocean animals will die because nets will tangle the animals. So don’t litter. All rubbish is bad for the sea so don’t litter. That is what marine debris is.

Marine debris

Have you ever heard of marine Debris? Well it is when there is rubbish all in the water. The reason I'm talking to you about marine Debris is because it is polluting our ocean. Would you like to swim in a polluted ocean? The other reason is that it is killing our sea animals.

Causes
Things that cause sea animals to die are metal, rubbish, plastic, which is most common, fishing nets and lines, paper, tires and 6 pack rings. Also boats which drive past their fishing nets and rods could fall off and can catch all the sea animals, storm drains sometimes have rubbish going down the drain and then the rubbish will get washed down the pipes in the ocean and fish will eat all the rubbish and die. Sometime fishers even throw there rubbish over board.

Effects
The effects of it is that it is killing sea animals, like choking, eating and getting hooked stuck down their throat. They could even become extinct.

Conclusion
If this keeps happening to sea animals there will be no more of them. So make sure there's no Marin debris in the water. Start picking up rubbish for the animals, environment and us.

Marine debris is rubbish in the ocean and sea. It is also killing sea life and sea homes.

Do not throw rubbish in the ocean or sea and on land. Fisher man are losing fishing gear like: nets, rods and fishing nylon. Sometimes you can accidently drop rubbish outside, on land, beaches and seas. It is us that is causing marine debris.
It is killing animal’s habitats. Plastic bags are killing our turtles because the turtles think they are jelly fish. It can kill animals like: seals, turtles, fish and other sea animals like that. It can kill the sea animals like that. It can kill the sea world. A lot of sea animals get  caught in the net’s from fisher men. Sometimes metal rings can get stuck around turtles neck and it can grow with the turtles neck as it gets older.

We can start to pick up rubbish from the beach, ocean, sea and lakes. Stop throwing rubbish on the ground. It can make a big deference to the world

 Marine debris is rubbish or in water and if rubbish goes to the sea fish will eat the rubbish then they will get sick die and the food will not die digest in their body.

Anything can be marine debris and if you throw stuff into the water you will go to jail because it is against the law.

If a rubbish bin is full and there is a plastic bin you must put the plastic stuff in the plastic bin and that will make the bin less full.

And sometimes nets wheels will get caught in seaweed and fish will not have homes to stay in.

And if you want to help you can pick up rubbish and that will save the environment.

Do you know that marine debris happens in water?” well you said marine so of  course it happens in water ‘’ but do you what debris means ‘’hmmm no’’ it means rubbish.
It caused so many animals dying. When fish or other an animals that we also eat marine debris .Us humans cause marine debris.
Marine debris breaks habitat of sea animals. Marine debris can be anything, for example a net floating around can catch sea animals. Millions of sea animals are dying.
We can help by not littering. For more information go to the trash talk website.

Marine Debris

A Marine Debris is a patch pollution (Rubbish) in the ocean.

Causes
If someone litters somewhere then the rubbish could easily blow away and land in a drain or a nearby river or beach and all that water leads to the ocean.And that will affect all the animals in the ocean and even some rivers!
Effects

Some of effects are that when the animals see rubbish they sometimes mistake it for food and when they do they could get tangled or strangled and then they could die. Sometimes when turtles see metal rings they sometimes get their necks stuck by swimming through them by accident. And they could get strangled or it could grow into their skin.

If people don't stop littering then all the animals will die and the ocean will be very dirty and all the sea creatures will be gone!

Bee Poems

We finished off our writing this term by creating poems about bees.

Bees are as sweet as an angel.
A bee is as fluffy as a bunny.
Ouch a bee stings me.
It feels like a needle plucked me. The worker bees work as hard as a maid.
The bee is buzzing around like a lawn mower.
By Sophia

Bees fly to a flower and it sounds like buzz.
Then she flew to New Zealand on a journey and made rich honey and got a lot of money.
Bee was yellow and black. When you see the bee it is like no other without bees we are dead.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz.
Bees fly as fast as a person spiting for a medal. 
By Amy

There was a bee that had lots of money
Who collected pollen and honey
She’s yellow and black
And lives in a shack
But now is no longer funny.
By Leela 

Bees as bright as the morning sun
making yummy honey for your tummy
Springing from flower to flower making a soft buzzing sound
Working as hard as a builder carrying a big heavy pile of bricks
By Max

There was a bee that flew around
And could do this with no sound
She had three eyes
And liked to eat pies
But now cannot fly off the ground.
By Stella

Bees look like a stripy soldier,
Buzzing around your red towel,
Bee don’t go on that towel it not a flower,
Bees sound like a pepper shaker. 
By Lachlan 

Bees are a lovely thing
The make honey in the spring
You don’t have to kill Bees as they don’t sting
It sounds like a buzzing noise in my ear
Bees like honey because they are yummy.
By Mojdeh

I am black on a track with yellow stripes in the night
I eat chives with knives
Honey is good for my tummy
I get honey for my big fat tummy
By Lucia


The Bee
There was a bee from the city
That liked to fly hi
She’s working as hard as the teachers at meadow bank school
She makes everything good
By pollinating she’s really good
With her fluffy coat all around  
By Sarah

A bee looks like a zebra with the wrong colours. 
A bee sounds like a zipper going up and down. 
A bee works as hard as a builder building a house.
By Fox


Bees as yellow in the morning sun buzzing around gathering nectar
Bees are yellow and black they live in a shack
There’s a queen in the hive that lives with chives
Everyone is no longer funny because the queen bee has lots of money
By William


The bees work as hard as god making the world, the bees fly like they’re in trouble. They sound like someone saying “zzz” the wrong way, bees as bright as the morning sun and as dark as the midnight sky.
By Blake

A bee sounds like a lawn mower.
She looks like night but with yellow strips.
She works as hard as a builder that carries a block.
