Our Sun And Earth
The Sun has been here for at least 5.9 billion years, and we have been here for 4.8 billion years. I asked myself why is the Sun been here longer than the planets if it was born with the solar system? Our Sun was born with the rest of the solar system and if there was no Sun we would not be here.Our beloved Sun is named after the Roman god Sol or Helios god of light.
The Sun's Core is that big that it is still bigger than 8,000 Jupiter's.The core is a heat source for the Sun's solar energy and give us light and life.
The black dot is actually called a sunspot.Some sunspots can be bigger than Earth or maybe Neptune. Sunspots are eruptions happing in the radioactive layer which is below the Sun's surface. The sunspots gases can burst as far as your finger but they are very wide.A sun flare is a huge eruption releasing big amounts of gas into space and being pulled back into the Sun.It is where the most violent eruptions in the solar system are mainly recorded and the biggest was in 2007.
The Sun was born through a cloud of dust and it was hot. As it got hotter everything started to collide into each other forming a small little baby Sun.Then gas and ice were formed into giant gas planets. Jupiter and Saturn were first two planets then Uranus,Neptune,Mercury,Venus and Earth the biggest inner planet.
Earth is home to life and is one of the youngest planet but is older than Venus and Mars.The Sun is what gives us light and energy so that the plants can grow and give us oxygen.What is a atmosphere? What does it do? Do you know? Well it is a force that traps the Sun's energy and it helps us breath. It also retains gases and energy by it gravitation pull.
What makes Earth suitable for life? Well we have a strong atmosphere, air and water.The plants are what gives us oxygen to breath.Also the Sun gives us light and heat.What makes Earth suitable for life? Well we have a strong atmosphere, air and water.The plants are what gives us oxygen to breath.Also the Sun gives us light and heat.
Earth is the biggest terrestrial planet meaning a rocky body.Earth also has the highest density of the four planets,with the highest surface gravity and is probably the only one with active tectonic plates.
Our water is a layer that spreads through Earth and the Sun is what picks up the water then it turns in to rain or clouds.

Netbook Reflection
There are many reasons why I like my netbook and the biggest is having to do with my maths. There’s this game called Tuxmath it helps you with strategies to find the answer. Maths is one of the my lower subjects but laptop has made it easier for me because you could easily go to a website and find out the answer so if you come to a question it makes it easy to remember.
The highest is my writing because ever since I got the Netbook my writing started to go up and now I’m in the top ten writers in my class.Term 1 that was when my writing was really low as I got my Netbook after term and term I started to use new words and con junction such as ? ! “ ‘ and that told me I’m getting better.
Since I got my Netbook I’ve been going on the Internet and researching facts and information.My most interest is history and planets, now I can find and store info in my mind.
My internet maybe slow but it’s because everyone is on it at the same time but anyways I still I can get my reading up when I start to read a piece of writing posted.
As much as I have loved having a Netbook there are some things that I haven’t liked.Such as how long you have to wait for the internet to load and I know I said having to wait in my likes but really it gets so annoying to wait for minutes.Also getting a message saying your timed out or your offline when you are maybe because we forgot to switch the internet.
When you write a mistake when you try to spell it or even correcting it from the computer because it sometimes it does not show up in the list of correct words.I really hate when your
trying to write that it then stops.The internet sometimes switches to TLN Manaiakalani then you have to change it back to Wairehe.I don’t like how long it takes to open a folder.
The greatest challenge for me is my writing.My writing improved better then last year and at the start of this year. My homework is what made me improve beyond where I planned to be and I’m proud of myself.
I think it would make it hard to write on pencil and paper in addition we would have to wait for us to copy our writing on our blog. But the biggest problem is that we won’t be able to spell the correct words, if we did go back to pencil and paper then if we make a mistake then can’t find a rubber so if we crossed it out our writing might look ugly.It would also be a slow writing.
