It's "CAT" to the rescue this time~ This cat climbed up more than 20m of a tree and unfortunately it couldn't find its way back down!
This male cat was thought to have been chased up the tree and it was spotted in an early morning. People were waiting for the fire service to come to the rescue. While waiting, it climb higher and higher!! And!! The ladders of the fire service weren't high enough to reach the cat. So, they called a tree surgeon to save the cat.
The branches of the tree was tiny and it couldn't keep his balance. Plop! He fell off~ Was it hurt? Well, luckily the rescuers used a coat to catch the falling cat. As soon as it was rescued, it ran off... Who does it belong to? We don't know.
Last week in All School Gathering, we have been showed a small play where Peter (Grade 7) was using a PC. His new mac would be coming in soon. But he needs to do his humanities homework and it needs a macbook!! So, he went to Jacob (Grade 10?) and borrowed his laptop. Jacob agreed, but there's a condition... If Peter damaged his macbook in anyway, he will have to give Jacob his new macbook. Peter, agreed to this promise. Unfortunately, somehow Peter dropped Jacob's macbook. Jacob found out and demands that Peter is to give him his macbook. Peter disagrees. He said that he didn't sign a contract with Jacob, therefore it doesn't count... Jacob argued and said that Peter HAVE give him his new macbook no matter what! The problem is, should Peter forefill what he had promised or just let it pass?
Maybe like this? Or...
This?? 0__0
--- I think that Peter should give Jacob his macbook. He made a verbal promised and vowed to Jacob. And, infront of witnesses!! But, I think that he can also fix the broken macbook (like totally new) and then give it to Jacob... But Jacob insisted that he wants Peter's macbook. --- Problme solved:
During Humanities class, we went downstairs to see Ms. Galland and her students (Kevin, Roxanne, Tina, Cindy, and Kassandra) had discussed this problem. They had solved the problem... They say that Peter had won and Jacob lost... --- I was confused about why it is that way, but... they say it just is~ LOL XP --- Picture Links: 1 and 2
When the population in Earth became zero, what does it look like? This video starts at the first day of people's absence to about 10,000 years later...
----
After watching this video, we started to imagine what it'll be like if only the people in Taiwan were to live and not the others.
What would it be like? What shall we do? What do we need to do for the populations to rise and spread it once again to the other countries? What about the imports and exports??
----
ONLY US...
We lost contact with the world... Only us, the people in Taiwan survived... We started to panic... What if we're the next target? And after that, nobody will survive...
It's time for us to explore and to spread out. We need to depend on each other. So, some of us decided to sail ships to untouched places and settle. Here we go to an unknown place...
Covered with trees and vines, it's time to explore!!!
As we arrived, we build up small tents and protection from wild animals. Slowly, we began to construct a city. As we brought technology to these lands, we began to contact once again. More and more humans began to bring up a society... Just like way back before, we've built a whole new world.
ELEPHANTS DIE AT ZOOS FASTER???!!?? IS THAT TRUE???
According to the researchers, they found out that animals like the African elephants, "do" often die around the age 19. But those in the wild, can live up to about 56 years old!! Why's that?
These elephants at the zoo, suffer from having bad health (may include of over weighted & stressed). Now that elephants are suffering more and more, scientists are telling zoos to halt taking all kinds of elephants from the wild... And! To solve this problem that's now occurring!!
(Picture from "THIS" website) The zoos got the message and told them that they had already tried their best to help those elephants.
Scary, scary!!! Hundreds and hundreds of those that was killed in Zimbabwe, died of a disease – cholera. Chloera is cause by the pollution of dirty water. People use these dirty, polluted water for their daily life. Because there isn't enough clean water for all the people to use, the government is feeling troubled.
Mr Brown said that countries all over the world should come together and work in order to get medicine for the people in Zimbabwe. If the disease carries on, it'll spread into other countries.
Is cholera difficult to cure? Well, it isn't. The problem is that Zimbabwe lack medicine for all those people who are infected.
It's kind of scary... Getting any kind of disease we all can suffer from it.
In Advisory, our goal was to build a tower with paper that can hold 50 g. In the end, our group (Lian, Annchi, Grace, and me) made this strange looking tower ~ an upside down flower tower. We were troubled by the balancing part. It should be able to stand when there's no weight on them, but it kept on falling. When the time was over, it finally stood! But, still, if we put the weights on together at the top, it went PLOP!
During this activity, I used 2 student outcomes and they are:
- Community Contributor = I contributed thoughts, thinking about how to make the tower for it to be able to stand on its on. - Effective Communicator = In order to do community contributor, I communicated a lot to my group.
