what is a base

 An acid is a liquid that has a H/Hydrogen atom that can react.

  • Nitric acid                      HNO3
  • Sulfuric acid                   H2SO4
  • Hydrochloric acid           HCl



A base is the opposite of an acid. Also has an OH Which is Hydroxide that can react.

When an acid and a base react they neutralise (cancel out) each other.

All About Stoats

 KIA Ora readers, today I will be talking about stoats. Stoats are a pesky weasel that are endemic to New Zealand and kill native birds for fun sometimes. The stoat is part of the weasel family and they have a brown/black fur on top and a white undercoat. 

We are learning about NZ flora and fauna which is like plants and animals in hurumanu 1/ Nga Tangata and that stands for The People. We read this book called Uncle Don Knows Heaps Of Wacky Stuff from page 12 -16. In my opinion this book is fantastic absolute lovely and I would like to read it more so I can get more information about New Zealand flora and fauna. 


All About Stoats

Reflection:

My reflection is that I enjoy doing this because there are many animals that I did not know that live in New Zealand and I get to learn about them. The book Uncle Don Know Heaps Of Wacky Stuff is very fun to read and it has a lot of facts about New Zealand flora and fauna.

The Bittern

 KIA Ora readers, I will tell you about what i'm doing today. We are learning about NZ floura & Fauna which if plants and animals endemic to NZ and I learned about the bittern which is a bird that is very shy and hardly seen. We learned it in hurumanu 3 which is Te Ao Whanui and the story that we had to read was uncle don knows heaps of wacky stuff the book is very interesting. I used this app called canva which I had never used before, it was very interesting to use and I would like to use it a lot more. 


Reflection:

It was my first time using canva and I really like it because it is very unique and way more better than google slides. And it was so much easier to use then a google slide because you have to search a picture and then take a photo of that and put it on your google slide. With canva there is a search bar and search a picture and it comes without making a tab of a new picture and delete the tab. 


Here is my presentation
