Inference RL - Litia


This slide show is about maths. This maths technically is asking you what happens next
reading stories and finding out awnsers.   

School camp explanation- Litia

 School camp explanation


School camp Is a great way to get out in the world without any destractions.


 Camp is somewhere you can communicate with people in person. There is no technology needed since you would have activities to do. There would be no social media, no internet, well what I know off.


There's basic activities like paddle boarding, kiyaking and rock climbing. The scariest thing about these three things is that paddle boarding can fall off the same as kayaking when you fall in the water its BLEEPIN scary cause you feel like your gonna drown and sink, for people that hate heights from climbing might not be your thing it will feel kind of scary at the top cause you feel like your gonna fall off it really depends on the size and the height of the wall.


My experience at camp was amazing I give it a 9/10 only because there was a lot of rumors and a lot of drama with the boys and some of the girls which was very immature and toxic of them because of them we had to go sleep early, the other thing is when we always got back from activities we supposed to come back lunch but only 4 people get to eat because they pack it away fast. But besides that, I had a fantastic time.


The basic things that are there to enjoy are the pool, water slide, park, more than 1 trampoline, Flying fox,  and the bunk beds. Some of the adult volunteers helped out, they had to pay $70 the whole school paid the rest.


Camp is amazing if you ever get an opportunity to go camp go cause this might be the only time you can go.

Why is it important to Learn how to swim.

                                              Why is it important 

                                                              to Learn how to swim?


The reason why it is important to swim is because if you are in a tsunami, lost in the sea you can swim your way back.


In 2019 there were about 82 people that had died from drowning because they couldn't swim. In 2018 there were about 68 people that had died because they couldn’t swim. In 2017 92 people have died because of drowning.  CLICK HERE TO LEARN ABOUT WATER SAFETY!


Swimming is a part of swimming because swimming will protect you in any waterways. Swimming is like an exercise, it's a water sport, it's cardio and you may feel like it gives you strength which is true. Swimming is really fun and a social activity.


If you don't know how to swim please please wear a life jacket or if you have a baby you can buy floaty arm thingings and you can buy those togs that have the puffy things inside of them. If you see someone endanger and no lifeguards around but you know how to swim HELP THEM IMMEDIATELY.

Intro- Humans and monkeys have a lot of similarities. They are both mammals. 


Mammals have live babies and not eggs, the babies drink milk out of them, they are warm blooded .

Humans and monkeys both have 2 legs and 2 arms. Humans and monkeys can't breath under water which is the same as    ground animals.As other species like turtles, and spiders, when turtles have their baby they would likely to leave their babies after born, spider they would just eat the babies.Mammals would stay and look after their baby feed it play with it they would grow up with the baby and when their older they would possibly stay together, so technically mammals don't abandon their babies, but other animals and insects do .Humans can pick up tools which are like monkeys. They both have thumbs which will hold the tool in your hand if you get a good grip.




So the humans have developed brains and the human lifespan = 82 years . And the human cooks their own  food and the monkey can’t hold their breath underwater and they have bigger brains than humans. And the apes live up to 39 years old . And the monkey eats plants to make their medicine to take care of the babies and the older parents.   



But the monkey is any primate that is not a human,prosimians and the bush there babies and other primitive primates . And the monkey makes up to three groups of simian primate, old world monkey and the new monkey. The other groups of apes. 


 

And so the humans were monkeys and after when they were monkeys they became a caveman and after when the humans were cave men they became a human and the human can do his own things like cook his own food and they put some tools and they bathe themself. 



And the monkey and the humans have a different way to have a relationship but they have different language to communicate to have a relationship. 


Monkeys and humans have different DNA because the Scientists have long known that chimps and humans share about 98 percent of their DNA. At last, however, one can sit down with two scrolls of computer printout, march through the two genomes, and see exactly where our 2 percent difference lies. 


Humans have adenine, guanine,  cytosine, and thymine. Monkeys Humans, chimpanzees and monkeys share DNA but not genes.


So the humans have fewer chromosomes than monkeys and the monkeys have more chromosomes than humans. And the humans have =46 and the monkeys have =48 chromosomes.So Jane Goodall is a primatologist and she is the world foremost expert on chimpanzees, and Jane is best known for her 60 years of study.      


Homo sapien is one of the several species grouped into the genus homo. Homo sapien is the only one  

.And so the chromosomes are part of the DNA of the humans and the monkeys.

5 things that make graphs inaccurate


one way to trick you is not
 starting the Y axis at zero.
  
  
Another way to trick you is having number
 that are way to big on the y axis.

Sometimes people take data out
 to make the data look beter.




Eg: you wouldnt use a pie chart when showing
 something that changer overtime.

Going against can vetion means doing thing not normal-
 E.g: having green to mean stop and red to mean go.

Monday 27th July 2020

GENOMICS is the study of genes that make up the body. 

Organism - a living thing (humans, bugs, birds, animals etc). 

XX - female
XY - male

Humans have 22 sets of chromosomes which are made up of A, C, G and T bases. These are in different combinations which change your physical appearance/characteristics. 


Identical twins will have the same DNA. Non-identical twins will not.

Predator Free 2050
85 million years ago NZ was one of the first countries to split apart from Gondwanaland. Gondwanaland is when all the land in the whole Earth was together in one big country - they split up and became the continents. This meant that the only mammals NZ has, either swan here or flew here. 


Because NZ is an island with no mammals, the birds, insects etc became defenseless (because they had no predators to hide from). Maori and Europeans settlers killed lots of animals, and brought with them predators from other countries (for example possums, rats, stoats, dogs). 


Those predators brought here by settlers, have destroyed our native birds/plants. NZ has one of the worst extinction records of any nation in the world. 


NZ has been trying to control the pests by using traps, poisoning but it hasn’t really worked. We need to work together to control the pests. 


It is everyone’s responsibility to control pests and protect native species - all New Zealanders.

The most unvisited place.

The most unvisited place.

One morning at 3.30am there was a girl named Jackson. She was walking across the road in Paris in the town called lonely vill and spotted a building that had a lot of food. Jackson was a loving 17 year old french and candaidien girl, She said to herself “ I don’t really care because no one is in this town so i'm just gonna go steal”.  She walked in the shop and grabbed a bunch of food.

Later after she grabbed so much food she heard a big KABOOM sound she thought in her mind it sounded like someone else was here, but she thought to herself again that’s impossible so she went to go check it out. There was another person Jackson’s mouth dropped and she was so shocked to see someone finally. Jackson went up to the girl and said “hi my name is Jackson Lopez nice to meet you”. The other girl said “Hi my name is Sarah lopez and i'm about to kill you” bringing out her sword, Jackson was so scared but at the same time she wasn’t she said “lopez is your last name” “yeah” replied sarah “ so why do you care” , “just think about it don’t you think we might be related just put down the sword” said Jackson, Sarah started to think yeah we might be cousins so sarah decided to take her to her home where all of her family members live.

On the way to Sarah’s home they saw a man that was standing in the middle of the road holding a smith and wesson gun. The man asked what your guys name and last name they replied, its “Sarah lopez and Jackson lopez ”, the man said “hi my name is Tommy, Tommy lopez nice to meet you”. Tommy was wearing a black mask, a hoodie and black track pants with some Nike air forces, Tommy took off his mask and said “ my beautiful kids” they both snapped into tears and said “DAD!” All of them started crying. They were so happy together.

When Sarah took them to her house the mother was their and all the other family members. They were so happy to be reunited. Then after a couple of years people started visiting the town. Lonely vill was known as the most visited place and is now called Lopez town.

UNWANTED VISITOERS- Earth wednesday reading task

Exploring Antartica

Exploring Antarctica

Rushing through the freezing snow a group of people were going to explore a mountain called Mount Fries land. Gabby, known as the 21 year old and kinda scared of bigfoot said “guys we are nearly there”.

Gabby's friend Kehlani, 6 years older than her, said “ I can’t believe I'm here. I wanted to come here years ago, just to see sea animals they are the cutest! That's why I became a blogger to blog about sea animals”. An hour later they were at the mountain, Gabby’s assistant Enzo was jumping up and down excitedly. Gabby was happy to see her 25 years old assistant happy. As for Alan (the impatient 37 year old) fun one was excited to climb he said “ I love climbing that’s the only thing I do in life to be honest”. A few minutes later they were at the Mountain, they all hooked up a rope and a carabiner on the harness around their waist.

When they started to climb Enzo was the highest person on that mountain. All his friends were below him,  tied together making a long line that spread down the cliff face. He was climbing too fast; his rope was accidently cut by a sharp rock. His friends plummeted to the snow below and were terrifically alright. He was holding on two rocks by his fingertips. Enzo shouted out to his friends “ GET HELP!”Gabby quickly called the ambulance on her satellite phone. They said “that they will be here in a couple of minutes”. Gabby said “ just hold on there be here in a minute. The ambulance rang again and said “ we have a little problem with the helicopter just keep him comfortable”, Enzo replied nervously “ i’m just gonna jump”. When he did he safely landed on the snow. Everyone was relieved and happy they went up to Enzo and said “are you ok”, he replied “yeah the snow felt like a soft pillow, it cushioned my landing”. The ambulance came in a helicopter. The people in the ambulance helicopter lowered a ladder and they climbed up later they took them home and one of the men said “ be safe bye” All of them replied saying “ THANK YOU!” so loud.

At the end everyone had a terrifying moment.But they each told their story to any relatives and they made sure they were never going to go back to that mountain, but they all live the same ordinary life.
