Hola and welcome to my blog!

 For todays blog I will be blogging about what we have been reading throughout this week. This week my group and I have been reading holes, by Louis Sachar. If you are familiar with this book then you might understand what I am talking about, but if you haven't I recommend you to read it, it is so gooooddd! Not only that but you can watch it on screen( but I would prefer reading the book because it is more exciting).

This is not my first time reading holes, so I kind of remember what happened in the story. All that I need to add is to look for different perspectives for our Solo Study.

Here is my summary:

The bird is believed to have stood up to one metre tall and to have had a massive beak capable of cracking open most food sources.  
The parrot has been named “Heracles inexpectatus”.Researchers say the parrot was found in fossils dating back 19 million years.
The fossils were found near St Bathans in Central Otago, an area renowned for turning up evidence of ancient birds.
The fossil is around twice the size of a kākāpō, which until now was the largest known parrot.

The Life Process of Bacteria by Hamish

Hi Guys Its Me Hamish and i'm back to show you The Life Processes of Bacteria and all the other wacky and funky things that come with it! So sit back ,relax and get your reading glasses cos i'm going to show you the "World of Bacteria!"


Image result for bacteriaDid you know that every 20 seconds a new piece of bacteria forms In the world?  To do so it needs food like any other thing to grow, including oxygen , carbon dioxide and water. When these things run out,  the bacteria will start to die out that is why when you see cold, dark and damp places, there is normally a decent amount of bacteria like moss or other types.

Bacteria is also a living organism and is apart of  MRS GREN or the seven life processes. Bacteria displays a wide diversity of shapes and sizes called morphologies.

Did you know that bacteria cells are about one tenth the size of eukaryotic cells and are typically 0.5-5.0 Micrometers in length? However there are a few species you can see with the unaided eye for example, Thiomargarita  namibiensis is up to half a millimeter in length.


Bacteria cells exist as single cells but some like Streptococcus might form chains or other things like a bunch of grapes LOL Some even for body's that can go for 500 micrometers long and containing about 100,000 cells. In these body each piece of Bacteria has a certain job for example some might migrate to the fruity top to differentiate into a specialised dormant  state called a myxospore.

Bacteria often attaches to surface and forms dense aggregation called biofilms and larger formations are called microbial mats.
