Hey Bloggers!!! Today I am blogging on sea animals. For SLJ, (Summer Learning Journey). So instead of giving you a whole lot of information about sea animals. I have facts, 5 facts, I will show you them soon, but I will introduce you to the Amazon River.
For those who do not know anything about the Amazon River, here is a little bit about it.
- It is in Brazil
- It is 6400 kilometres (KM) Long
- That is 3 times as long as New Zealand, WOW!!!
Here is a photo of the Amazon River...
So that is 3 facts about The Amazon River. So when I show you the facts, I am going to either write true or false beside it. To tell whether it is true of false. Comment down below and tell me if it is right or wrong, OK.
Here are the 5 facts...
Fish Fact #1: The oldest known fish in the world is a 65 year old Australian lungfish - FALSE
Fish Fact #2: Sharks are the only fish that have eyelids - TRUE
Fish Fact #3: Starfish are a type of fish - FALSE
Fish Fact #4: Fish communicate with each other by making low-pitched sounds (moans, hisses, etc) - TRUE
Fish Fact #5: Fish usually swim together in groups called ‘classes.’ - FALSE

Hi Lavinia,
ReplyDeleteIt's Leslie here, reading your blog from my home in far off Canada. I'm a member of the Summer Learning Journey team. Isn't it amazing that I can live on the other side of the world and yet be a part of this program, just like you?
This activity required you to do some research on fish. My research shows that you're correct about lungfish not being the oldest fish in the world - the Greenland Shark can live for hundreds of years. Imagine that!
The page that is linked to this activity says that sharks are the only fish with eyelids but other resources say that there are many deep sea fish with eyelids. So I would say that the answer to question #2 is FALSE. However, you certainly have earned full points because of what's printed in the fact sheet...
Good for you for being involved in this summer blogging program!! I hope you're enjoying it!!
I'm enjoying reading your blog!
Cheers,
Leslie
Kia ora Lavinia!
