Recount writing

Wednesday 21st September 2016

It was a bright saturday afternoon. I was sitting lazily on the lazy boy when mum yelled “we're going to the pools”. I excitedly jumped off the sofa and ran to get ready.

When I was getting ready Gabriel burst into my room and yelled “we’re leaving soon”. I quickly stuffed in my togs and towel then rushed to the car as fast as lightning.

On the way to the pools we went past a long bridge, shops that sold toys and lollies, and went past trees that looked like they were touching the sky. Finally we arrived at our destination.

When we reached our destination, I bolted out the car door like a horse and ran straight to the pool door. When everyone else had scrambled out the door they all  raced up to meet me.

I raced inside and mum paid for us  to get in. I raced into the changing room and got dressed in record time then went for  swim.

When I jumped into the pool it was ice-cold. I was thinking about hopping out when I saw Gabriel Diving in so I stayed In. After a few minutes, it  started to get warm. So i dived in head first and started swimming like a fish. Finally mum called us up for lunch.

For lunch we had hot crispy chips, they were delicious because I hadn’t eaten in a long time we also had ice-cold drinks they were so cold that water was dripping off the side. When we were finished Gabriel and I went for a little swim because we had to leave soon.

At 4:00 clock mum called us up and we packed up and headed home. That day was the best day ever because I hadn’t been to the pools in a long time.

The water cycle

Tuesday 13nth September 2016

Did you know that There is the same amount of water here today as when the earth was created. Water is very important for the survival of  humans beings, plants and animals. I will provide you with a reason as to why water is recycled

The water cycle is also called the hydrological cycle. This cycle includes precipitation, evaporation, condensation and transpiration. Water changes from liquid into vapour then liquid again. When The water evaporates it forms into clouds because of condensation.

Firstly water from the lakes, rivers, streams and the sea is heated by the sun and then evaporates. When the clouds get heavy it falls down as rain assisted by gravity. If it falls down as a solid form it is called snow.

Firstly the water reaches the ground and it flows across the land until it reaches the river, lakes, streams and sea. Some water also sinks into the ground.

The water cycle will then begin all over again and start to evaporate.

Glossary:

Precipitation:the action or process of precipitating a substance from a solution.

Evaporation:is the process of a substance in a liquid state changing to a gaseous state

Condensation:water which collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it.

Transpiration: is the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots
