Shania and Efelata My Genome Sequence

My Genome Sequence 
Our bodies are exceptionally clever. Even when we’re asleep, they’re doing all sorts of extraordinary things, like mending themselves. These things don’t happen by magic. 
Deep inside our cells is a chemical called DNA. DNA acts like an instruction manual, controlling how our body works. These instructions are made up of four chemical letters that we call A, G, T and C. These repeat 6 billion times. That’s enough letters to take a whopping 57 years to read out aloud.
The complete set that makes you the unique and brilliant individual you are, is called your ‘Genome Sequence’. Around 99% of our sequences are the same. It’s the 1% that makes us all different, deciding everything from our height to our hair colour.
DNA is a bit like the computer code used to give robots instructions. Sometimes a glitch in the code, like a spelling mistake, will create individual differences. Most of the time this isn’t a problem. Sometimes it can even be an advantage. But if a glitch makes the instructions confusing, the robot might not be able to do things as it should. It’s the same with our DNA. Everyone has glitches, but some of us have glitches that cause health problems, because our body isn’t getting the right instructions. For instance, having a glitch in the DNA for your muscles might make you less strong. The only way to find that glitch, is to look closely at your genome sequence.
Genome sequencing is an exciting new technology. By taking a blood sample, scientists can remove the DNA and read your sequence using a high-powered machine. By taking a blood sample, scientists can remove the DNA and read your sequence using a high-powered machine. The 
scientists will compare your sequence to thousands of other peoples’, to find the glitch. They might even compare it to your close relatives, like your Mum and Dad.
Working out exactly where your genome is different, can help doctors to diagnose the cause of your condition and decide on the best treatment. It’s still a very new technology so the more people have their genome sequences read and compared, the more we can learn about DNA and the more answers we can find in the future.
  • It's one percent .
  • Our sequences are all the same
  • They could repeat 6 billion times.
  • Some kids could have the same (DNA) as their relatives.
  • Some time it could be an advantage.
  • Everyone has a glitch to them.
  • Genome sequencing is an exciting technology
  • Scientist could remove some people (DNA) because they could have a glitch in them.
  • Sometimes it can even be an advantage.
  • Condition and decide
  • They use chemicals for (DNA).

The fragile web of life

     task description:
today room 2 sat down in a class and watched a video so we know what to do and also to give you
some ideas. 

Persuasion Map


Wednesday 7 August 2019

School hours persuasive

Hook:
Do you know what is persuasive means? well I can tell you all about what it means.

Persuasive means: 
Hook: Well Persuasive means convince someone and that we should have more time at school so that we can
finish off our more work. And get better at job when you grow up. School is good for you because you learn more
and You do fun activities and you also get to go on a trip somewhere that is exciting. The reason why teachers come
to school because so that us students can get better at things and to get a good job for your future. 
Reason one: school should start earlier and end later because kids would learn more things at school and that
school should start earlier because if you didn’t Finish your work off you will might get into trouble from
Your teacher.

Reason two:
At school it is good to learn because when some other students are stuck on something you can go and help 
Them at school it is good to learn because when the teacher asks you a question you know what it is  
                           And you can help them with work. And you can help them get it on there blog and so that they know that you are
being kind. 

reason three:
I think that if you go to school more than you can do your reading maths and writing and you never know if you are .
going to go and get a good reading level and get your grades up So that you can get a good job when you grow up

What time you should go to sleep:
I think that you should go to sleep at 8:00 clock so that you can get more sleep for school and I think that school
should Start earlier like at 8:30 because we can finish off more things At school that you haven't done and it will 
be better if school can finish later because your parents might be still at work.

It will also be good for kids because they could learn how to read when they are older and fun fact because they
could Be better at learning their reading maths and handwriting They could have a better education and a better
future For you and your family. 

Conclusion :
I think that school should start earlier and end later.

Vegetable Gardens


Today we had maths and my class was working on this presentation named Vegetable Gardens.
