rocky shore habitat

Today i'm going to be telling you facts about the  splash zone high zone middle zone and low zone of the rocky shore.

Splash Zone 

the splash zone is the top zone and is mostly where all the waves come crashing onto the rocky shore. Often with the force of the waves the waves could knock people over . The sea creatures that are found in the splash zone are crabs, snails, and barnacles large mammals, hard shelled , long period of heat can expose the animal.

High Zone

the high zone is similar to the splash zone, the animals in this area have to get used to the waves and stay in the sun for long but not as much as the splash zone. the animals that are in the high zone are limpets crabs and cushioned star fish.

Mid zone

this zone is covered in water and not covered in water twice a day because of the tides coming in and out. animals in this zone are made to breath in water and not in water. the animals that are here are bigger star fish chitons crabs and anemones

Low Zone

this zone is always covered in water this is an area were you find lots of different sea creatures. Most of the sea creatures hide in rocks and seaweed. the creatures that are found here are fish sea cucumber kina and seahorse and much more.

WALT  make connections with our own experience as we read the text.

We write the things we do at our camp last week from wensday to friday what we did and we read a diffrent camp writing and wrote what they did and what we didnt.

Play ground Recount

Start Here.

On a hot cloudy thursday morning room 8 went to the playground. We walked silently in one straight line of boys and one straight line of girls. We didn't actually know what game we were going to play.

Challenge

When room 8 got to the park we had to do a challenge the challenge was an obstacle course it was boys vs girls we had to start From the monkey bars and then we had to climb up the letter and across the bridge on to the other monkeys bars and then up the rope thingy. There were 10 boys and 10 girls and one girl and a boy had to go at the same time.

Free time

After we did our obstacle course we were allowed to play on the park for a while. A little bit of us started to play some tag and some of the other kids in our class sat on the grass because it was too hot to play. My friend Aaliyah tried to do the spider on the flying fox but it was a bit to hard.

End

After we had some free time we head back to class to start our writing.

Conclusion

How you were feeling

Excited when we got told we were going to the park

When we got to the park and new we were doing an obstacle course I was nervous because we had to go two at a time and some kids in our class where watching us

I was happy when we got to play on the park after our obstacle course.
