Fair chocolate

 

During term 1 my reading group and I have been learning what chocolate is made out of.   This is what I learned about chocolate, chocolate is made out of cacao beans and  and cacao beans grow on trees, lots of farmers them and they sell it to the chocolate factory but some can keep it and make their own cacao beans are mostly found in Africa,  before you they take of the cacao beans you have to wait until their are quite burned, and that is all I know but in each of our reading groups we had to make a poster about it

here is a  photo.

all about star fish

star fish or stars are shaped fishes  belonging to class Asteroidea. common  usage frequently finds these names being also applied to ophiuroids, which are correctly referred to as brittle stars or basket stars starfish are also known as asteroids due to being in the class Asteroidea.

I like star fish because there are spiky star fish that live in rock pools  and they blend in with the rocks  and star fish are cool because they can be difrent coloer’s and live in diffrent places some mite live in rock pools some mite live in sea weed some mite live in coril reaf’s  a cool thing that i like about star fish is that they are sea living thing that have 8 legs or claw’s some can  be big
