Hydration and Dehydration

Here is my Water DLO. It is about Hydration and Dehydration. We looked at two images that showed a farm the was Hydrated and another farm that was Dehydrated. The hydrated farm was much greener than he dehydrated one. Water is very healthy for you because it contains no sugar and it keeps you cooled down, Water is better than Fizzy drinks. Harry decided to work on the 25 word challenge, it was hard because we kept going over 25 words and it was hard deleting words to, But in the end we got there. From now on Im going to drink water , what about you?

Research

Today the most of year 8's in LS2 were lucky enough to the library to learn about researching with Ms Ogilvie. Ms Ogilvie is from the national library and she told us about this website that helps you research stuff and it is very easy because you can search by using keywords, much faster than on the net. You go onto the epic site and click on Britannica school. The year 8's had a good time learning with Ms Ogilvie.
