Samoan Language Week


L.I is to make an explanation about Samoan language week
Today we were learning about Samoan language week. Pua, Nevaeh, Jonathan, Harlem and I were working in a group for this task. We made a google slide about the Samoan Flag and Crest, And a slide about the Samoan Coat Of Arms. For the Samoan Flag and Crest we learned what the colors mean, what the Crest meant and why were they made. Next was our last slide which was about the Coat Of Arms. We learned about The Samoan Coat Of Arms is a Silver Shield that represents the five stars of the Southern Cross. We also learned about the Motto Fa'avae i le Atu means God be the foundation of Samoa. Samoa is one of the Hardest cultures to speak, In fact Samoa is one of the most popular cultures that people speak even in different countries. I couldn't speak Samoan at the start but now that I am practicing I know how to say some Samoan words. I also have some numbers that I have learned, I have learned how to count to 10.

Compulsory tasks


Word Ring



Today we did 1 of our compulsory tasks which was the word Ring. for the word ring we had to write words in the digestive system into the word ring and put which is in which and closest to the heart. For the bottom we had the words: Mouth and Stomach. Next ring we have the words: Esophagus, Rectum, Gallbladder and the Liver. Next Ring we have the words: Pharynx and appendix. And the front top ring we have the words: Blood, salivary glads, spleen and the pancreas.

Picture / Poster


Today we finished our 2nd compulsory task which was the Picture / Poster. Leroy drew this cool picture of the digestive system and what is in it. In the digestive system drawing we have: Mouth, Esophagus, Stomach and other words. He has drew lines to the picture of each word of the picture from the part of the digestive system. He had 8 parts in his digestive system drawing.

Explanation
  • Mouth
    • Earthworms swallow food through the mouth. A flap, called the prostomium under
    • the mouth holds the worm’s food in.
  • Pharynx
    • The food (Dirt) travels down to the pharynx, then from the pharynx the dirt
    • gets lubricated in mucus that makes it smiley and slick.
  • Esophagus
    • The food dirt comes down from the Pharynx then gets mixed
    • with calcium carbonate then the calcium carbonate neutralizes the acid in the dirt.
  • Crop
    • The dirt slides down to the Crop which s a storage point. Then the dirt gets mixed together.
  • Gizzard
    • From the crop the dirt moves to the Gizzard. Because earthworms don’t
    • have teeth the dirt gets grind ed and the dirt gets turned and mixed.
  • Intestine
    • After the dirt passes through the Intestine. Then the friendly bacteria beginners to
    • break down the food so that the blood vessels that line the intestine
    • can absorb this and carry the nutrients into parts of the earthworm's body.
Anus
  • Finally all this food waste that has been passing through 6 processes
  • the waste goes through to the Anus and leaves the earthworm's body.

For the 3rd compulsory task we had to write an explanation for any type of digestive system. For our digestive system I had an Earthworms digestive system. We have the: Mouth, Pharynx, Esophagus, Crop, Gizzard, Intestine and lastly the Anus those are the 7 parts of an Earthworms digestive system.

Slide Presentation


Today We had finished our last Compulsory task. It was to do the slide presentation. We had done: Large intestine, Small intestine, Stomach, Liver and the Esophagus. We had to find what they are and what do they do. We also had images of those body parts from the digestive system. We had a decent amount of work done for this task. The hard part of the digestive system to enplane is the Stomach because I know about all the other digestive system parts but stomach sounds like an easy part to explain but its because we have to explain what the stomach is and what the stomach dose.
