Informational Report – Hippopotamus

Introduction ;
Hippopotamuses are mammals, water and land animals. They have a herbivorous diet. They stay in herds and have one male leader. East African countries have some protected areas for hippos. 
Body para 1 ;
The third largest land animal on earth and native to Africa, the Hippopotamus. This mammal lives on water and land, they live in South Sarahan, Africa. They can stay underwater for five minutes. Hippos are mostly herbivorous and eat grass (about 35 kilograms) and fruits. Hippos have a large body, short legs, short tali, and a huge head. Hippos weigh 1,400kg – 4,500kg and their height is 10.8 and 16.5 feet. 
Body para 2 ;
Hippos are in groups with 10 – 30 individuals in it. It is called a herd or bloat. The leader of the herd is a dominant male leader. The rest are females with their younger hippos. Female hippos (who are called cows) give birth to baby hippos and gather up with other cows to protect their babies. They protect their babies and fight off the predators by splashing water and using their massive size as their advantage. 
Body para 3 ;
These hippos are not endangered yet but exposed to extinction. 115,000 – 130,000 hippos are still living in the wild. Due to their habitat loss and hunting, their population went down. Luckily the laws have been restricted and this helped the hippopotamus population.  They also live in protected areas in East African countries. 
Conclusion ;
Hippos aren’t endangered yet but vulnerable to extinction. 115,00 – 130,000 common hippos remain in the wild.  Due to habitat loss and hunting their population went down but since laws have been restricted their population has improved. When they fight they use their gigantic mouths and hit and splash water.

Reflection – Yr8 Camp

On the 26th of April , the year 8s had the privilege to go on camp in Henderson ( Carey Park) .

The yr 8s were put into 4 different groups , I was put in WESTSIDE .

My favourite part about camp was the concert because everyone was together having heaps of fun and being loud/crazy .

One thing I found challenging was crate stacking because you have to balance/focus really hard on what you’re doing .

There was nothing interesting that happened .

Writing Challenge #2 – Literacy

On a cosy night, I was peacefully walking through New York City. When suddenly a big shadow from on-top of a building was blocking the light. As I looked up, I was in shock to see an elegant gorilla wearing a bright and cute pink tutu. “ RUN, THAT GORILLA IS GOING TO ATTACK ! ’’ the man across the street said , running away . I was too relaxed to run, so I went to make friends with him. Later that evening, the gorilla and I had a delicious meal from one of the downtown food stores.

Descriptive Writing – Taste

This morning we had a fun game , it was all about tasting & being descriptive about it . My partner was Amira so we had to take turns . I went first so I had to try the mystery lolly first , I put my blindfold on and tried it . IT WAS SO SOUR , whoever created these lollies is insane , I’M PRETTY SURE THERE’S A LOT OF CITRIC ACID (SOUR) ! In my mouth it was personally disgusting but then the flavour started to turn into a sweet flavour . I literally couldn’t taste anything when I finished it , my mouth went numb . I honestly recommend not trying it but if you’re someone that loves sour , give it a try ! The moment you put it into your mouth , it instantly tastes so sour and you won’t feel your mouth . After tasting it , I now know to NEVER eat that EVER again and to next time toughen up LOL !
