How does global warming affect animals?

There are many things that affect animals. But the one that affects them the most in a good ways and  bad way is global warming.

So here’s how global warming affect animals.

Global warming affects animals food source’s. For an example,the animals that eat plants there food could dry up from the heat and die. Making animals starve to death.

Global warming could dry up 90 percent of wetlands and  getting rid of homes for most of animals that need to live in damp places like the ocean.

The Midwest region in Antarctica is heating and drying up. This is one of the most important places in north American waterfowl.

Since global warming dries up water and makes the water warmer causing many fish species to move toward the north and trying to find a colder place to live.

30 percent of Caribbean beaches are used by turtles during nesting season. But because of global warming it is making the oceans rise, once the ocean has raised 50 cm, they won't be able to nest there anymore and would have to find a different place to nest. Making it easier for some of it’s prey to get it.

Every animal needs to hibernate. But because of global warming Marmots are ending their hibernation. The reason for that is global warming is making them think it's springtime because it's warmer, but it's actually not spring and that could make them really tired making it easier or it’s predators to catch it.

So we must stop global warming in order to save our animlas!!!

Cross country                      

I puffed and puffed. My heart was pumping fast like a running cheetah. It felt like my leg would fall into tiny pieces.

I reached another cone, there was a big puddle of gooey mud.

As I was going through the mud, I could hear the mud squishing for my every footstep. I got through the mud safe and sound, but my shoes didn’t make it. My shoes were covered in gooey

squishy mud. I saw something up ahead, it was the finish line. I ran and ran like I had nothing to live for. I could hear the the crowd cheering me on. I got to the end, and still survived cross country. I got 25 points for my house. Now I just wanted to go to sleep.

On the fourth week of lava we made some Kahoots.
this is my kahoot.

Shelter building

On the first day of term three, lava got into some shelter building. We got into teams of six. It had to be a mix of girls and boys.

Then we had to chose an animal to build a shelter. My team chose to build a shelter for a cat.

There were lots of materials for us to use to build our shelter but we were only allowed to use three items from the materials. Our team used cardboard, wood and a big garbage bag. Then we got to work.

How we made our shelter:

First we took our box and cut off one of the flaps. Then we cut a hole in the front bottom of the box. After that, we taped the top flaps down. Then we took the garbage bag and cut it in half. We put half of it on the top and taped it to the sides of the box. Then we took the other half and placed it inside of the box. Then we took our cut off flap and taped it to the top of the hole. Lastly we taped our box to a long piece of wood. Then used tape to write “Meow. “

It took us all about two days to finish our shelters.  

When we had all finished we presented them to the class.

         

 We had so much fun building our shelter!!
