My Blog Comment on Room 8 Paerata's School Blog WK 10 26/06/15

Today I was looking all around for a post on Room 8 Paerata school (because we are quad blogging in my class) Then I saw this post that really hooked me in. I saw that it was an Xtra math certificate.













Here is my comment.

5/06/15 SH Speedwrite Proofread: Shiny stuff in the sky that is shaped as balls.

[Introduction]

Did you know that a star is not shaped out as a star the shape is a ball and there is lots of them? Stars are balls of hot gas that shine in the sky. Did you know that the sun is a dwarf star and the sun is not actually orange it is actually green but the sun gets all firey and that is why you think it is orange. If you want to know more about stars you should read more of this information report.

Appearance

Now I am going to tell you about the stars appearance. All stars are different colours and that means it’s a different type. Some stars are blue, some stars are red, some stars are white and some stars are ultraviolet. If the star is a different colour that means it is a different temperature. For the red star that is a lowest temperature. For the ultraviolet star it is the highest.

Types of stars

Now I am going to tell you about the types of stars. They are different types of stars and they are different sizes. First  is the dwarf star and that is the smallest star. Next is the main sequence star and it’s bigger than the dwarf star. Now it’s the giant star and the giant star is bigger than the dwarf star and the the main sequence star. Now it’s the super giant star and the super giant star is  biggest star.

Life cycle

Now I am going to tell you about the lifecycle of a star. First the star is formed as hydrogen atoms. Then gravity pushes it and it comes together and turn into helium atoms. Then the new star gets born in the centre of nebulae. Then the star grows and it grows in the order of the types of stars but the main sequence goes first and the dwarf star comes last because that’s when like the star dies.

[Conclusion]

Did you know that stars are usually 10 billion years old .Now this is the end of the star information report. I hope you make one yourself. If you want anymore information you can check this website http://www.ducksters.com/science/star.php.

WHY DOES THE MOON LOOK DIFFERENT EVERY NIGHT?

WHY DOES THE MOON LOOK DIFFERENT EVERY NIGHT?

Let me tell you about the Moon, the grey asteroid, and about all of its phases that make it look different every night. In many ways it will look like a banana or half of a circle and that is why you should read this whole explanation as to why this happens

While the moon orbits the earth, we either see more or less of each side of the Moon. We see more or less of each side because the Moon goes into a shadow and the sun shines some of the moon so we can see some of its appearance. Some people believe that the Moon's shadow is caused from the earth's shadow but it’s actually the sun shining it’s light on one side because the Moon keeps on rotating. However, each phase is caused by the sun's reflection on the Moon and because the Moon keeps on spinning on it’s axis.

A new Moon is a moon is the Moon in a shadow and if it’s a new moon for the southern hemisphere it might be a full moon for the northern hemisphere. The waxing crescent is the one after the new moon and you can see only a bit like 1/12 but that's my guess so that might not be real. The first quarter is the one that goes after the waxing crescent and the first quarter looks like half of the the moon but it is not because you can only see a quarter of the moon and because the other side is the other quarter. Waxing gibbous is like first quarter but it is a bit bigger and you will see that it is nearly full. A full moon is the whole moon that is covered in grey. Then the other side like instead of calling it waxing it is called waning all of it is the same just on the other side.

Did you know that the moon is not changing shape it is just the shadow covering the other side. Now you know information about the moon you should try and make your own one. I hope this inspired you to make you own one. If you want more information about the moon you should click on this website http://bit.ly/1IJ3pLO. The information in this website might inspire you and it might make you find more information for the moon.
