My Explanation writing about the Moon

The  Moon is a planet with lunar phases it is also an asteroid. The Moon is a great asteroid
and every night it changes different sizes and lunar phases are not caused by shadow. Hemisphere you
see the  waxing moon as a normal and waning moon as a backwards. Some believe the shadows are from earth and begin by explaining the Moon’s orbit of the Earth, and then go through the phases of the Moon.


As the   Moon’s orbit around the Earth is tilted from our orbit around the Sun  not shadows that cause.
Phases Its about the bright side of the Moon and when the Moon goes around the earth it shows more of it surface lit by the sun and the Moon and the Earth orbits the sun together .

It takes time for the moon to orbit the earth it takes when the moon goes around the earth it takes 25. Hour for it to go around the Earth when it goes around earth is change  shape when it goes around. Earth at the same time  it has eight phases and it changes when it orbit the earth.

Overall, if you want to learn more about why does the moon looks different the go to the website. I think it will help you with your learning click on this website.(http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/sciencefacts/space/moon.html ). I  hope my writing help you and thank you for checking it out .

MARS! The inhospitable red planet

Introduction
Have you ever wondered why people don’t live on Mars? I am going to teach you everything I know about Mars. Mars is named after a Roman god of war. It is a planet that has red dust everywhere, volcanes and sand storms, which last for months! Mars is a planet that humans have never explored.

Appearance
Mars is a red planet, that is also the fourth planet in our solar system.
Mars  has the biggest volcano in the solar system this volcano is call M.T Olympus Mons Mars sits right . Next to Earth so it’ is like their neighbours on Mars it has two moons one  big and one small one Mars  has no h2o and 02. Mars has frozen polar caps like Earth. Mars is a very rocky surface mars is  also a very dangerous planet because it is very very cold . But in earth you can only get skin cancer when when it is hot and you have to wear hats and sunscreen on but at  Mars you can get skin cancer very quickly but not that quick.

The Orbit of Mars
Even though Mars is our closest neighbour, its orbit is very different. A Martian day (or how long it takes to rotate once on its axis) is longer than an Earth day and equals 24 hours and 37 minutes. This is because it spins slower than our planet. Moreover, a year on Mars is the same as 687 Earth days! Imagine if you lived on Mars, you would be almost half the age you were on Earth!

Could humans live on Mars.
It will be very difficult for humans to live on mars. Cause mars has no magnetic field and They can also get skin cancer and there is no H2o on mars and it is uninhabitable and there is no O2 on mars. It has an thin atmosphere . Mars has frozen polar caps like Earth mars is a very rocky surface mars is also a very dangerous planet which it is very cold . but in earth you can only get skin cancer when when it is hot and you have to wear hats and sunscreen on but at  Mars you can get skin cancer very quickly.

Conclusion

Mars’ is a very interesting planet to learn about with all those dust storms which takes for months. If you want to learn more about Mars’ then go to http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/sciencefacts/planets/mars.html.

MARS! The inhospitable red planet

In Week 5 of Term 2 our class focussed on how to write great information reports.
We wrote about the planet Mars as we are in the middle of learning about Planet Earth and Beyond. Learning how to write a geat information report will help us with our self-guided topics in a few weeks time.

Here is my writing, after I have self-assessed and peer-assessed my work.
