Inquiry - Waste Sorting Activity
Hey Readers! Today in Inquiry, Miss McLeod's Inquiry group learnt about recycling (one of the 4 R's 😁). We got to learn about what we can put into the yellow bin to be recycled, I found this lesson very important and interesting. And today I found out that 1 contaminated (unwashed or unclean) piece of rubbish can make a whole truck-full of rubbish have to go to landfill, so I'm taking washing my recycled plastic more seriously now 😄. After learning about recycling (which was very fun) we got to do this activity where we sought out different things to put into different bins on a google drawing. Here is my activity 😌:

Writing - Snow Leopard Information Report
Hey Readers! Last week, Miss McLeod's writing group got to make information reports about an endangered species of their choice. I chose to write about the Snow Leopard 😁, and I was actually quite surprised to find out that Snow Leopards are actually an endangered species. I find Snow Leopards very beautiful, how about you? This writing was really fun for me and I enjoyed it a lot, her is my writing 😌:
The Endangered Snow Leopard
Introduction
Did you know that Snow Leopards are endangered?
Snow Leopards have been endangered since 1986. Which means that the Snow Leopard
has been endangered for 35 years,which, as you can imagine, only causes a negative
impact on the species.
Appearance
Snow Leopards are a beautiful species of Leopard. They are an average sized species of
leopard, averaging between 2-5 feet long. They have stripy, long and bushy tails that can
range from 80-100 cm long. Their fur resembles the patterns of the fur of a cheetah which
makes them even more pretty. A Snow Leopard’s eyes are also very beautiful, with the
colours of their eyes being either grey or pale green.
Habitat
Do you know where you can find Snow Leopards?
Well, you can actually find Snow Leopards in the mountains of Central and Southern
Asia. They can be found in twelve countries, including Russia, China, Pakistan and
more. There are 4,000 - 6,000 Snow Leopards left in the world, and around 2,000 of
them can be found in China, where most Snow Leopards live.
Diet
Have you ever wondered what Snow Leopards eat?
Snow Leopards eat a big variety of things, most of them being small creatures. The
many different species they eat are Blue Sheep, Pikas, Deer and others. But, their diet is
one of the reasons that they’re endangered. Since Snow Leopards eat sheep, they mistake
the ones in farms for wild ones and when they try to hunt them, the farmers would often
shoot them down, by doing this, the amount of Snow Leopards decrease a lot each year.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Snow Leopard is a beautiful species that should not be messed with.
If you would like to save the wonderful species of Snow Leopards, try not to support
farmers and poachers who kill this amazing species.
