Hydrosphere explanation

 Hydrosphere explanation

The Earth is made up of many different parts, all these parts working together creates the earth system. But this system can be subdivided into four main components, (the four spheres). These subsystems or spheres are: the geosphere, atmosphere, biosphere and the hydrosphere. In this explanation I'll be telling you about the hydrosphere.

From small flowing streams to raging oceans the hydrosphere covers all the water on earth’s surface. But why do we need it? The hydrosphere is not just water that runs out of the tap in our houses. We rarely think about the role of the planet that keeps us alive. Humans use water every day, in many ways. Drinking water is the most obvious use, but water is also used for: washing, cleaning and in industries. Water is also used in generating electricity through hydroelectric power (or hydropower). 

Those were a few reasons why we need the hydrosphere, but not only does the hydrosphere play a large role in our lives, it plays a major role in the ecosystem too. Many living things thrive in water, so the hydrosphere provides a place for many animals and plants. The flora need the hydrosphere because the water serves a medium of transportation and is solvent in plants. Water also provides stability and structure to plants.

The hydrosphere is one of earth’s four major systems; these four systems are very closely related. So closely connected that usually when something happens in one sphere it affects the other spheres too. For example, when water (hydrosphere) evaporates it creates clouds in the atmosphere, when clouds become too heavy it rains down to the geosphere. The water soaks into the ground and helps the plant and animals (biosphere). That is one of the more positive ways that the hydrosphere connects all four spheres. Another way the hydrosphere connects spheres is tsunamis. A tsunami is a massive tidal wave that destroys land and kills many plants and animals.

A different way the hydrosphere connects to the other spheres is the water cycle. What is the water cycle you may ask? The water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. 

In conclusion, the hydrosphere is one of the major importances to earth; without it human life wouldn’t be possible. And that is why the hydrosphere is so important and why we should look after it.

Earth's Spheres gone wrong

The volcano

 

The earth’s floor crumbled whilst  streaks of lightning cracked in the sky like a vast braided whip. Lava seeped out from within the volcano. The volcano, it seemed like a beast; evil beyond all reason!  Heat pounded upon me. Molten magma and lava enveloped the peak of the mountain. The earth shook, as torrents of golden death descended over the helpless countryside. More hot lava oozed over the side of the mountain. Clouds of volcanic ash flocked over the landscape cloaking anything and everything in its path. Chaos and ruckus reigned as the mighty beast awoke to smote his anger upon the world. In the starry night sky a sliver of white lighting in the shape of a snake’s forked tongue lashed out in the distance. I gasp in fear “Eeeee”. It felt as if my heart was beating out of my chest. ‘When will this mayhem END’?!

The monster poem

 The monster

It's hide is like a shaggy rug,

It's face is surly, ugly mug. 

With two edged horns atop its head,

Between a mop of hair that’s red!

And in its nose, a ring of gold,

It smells like rotten fish and mould.

Its toes are black, its fur is blue,

I swear that all I tell you is true.

But you may ask what does this monster do?

Well here are some things that this monster can do.

They’ll sneak into your library and scribble in all your books,

When decorating your Christmas tree they tangle up all the hooks.

They’ll spoil the milk, they stop all the clocks,

They use their horns to put holes in your socks.

They’ll probably make you sleep too late,

And they will never ever wait.

They muddy up your tidy house,

They make you feel as small as a mouse.

They break your crayons, they spill your tea,

They wake up babies at 1:00 and 3:00.

They’ll make you forget all the things you were taught,

They’ll make you lose your train of thought.

They’ll dig up your garden, they won’t beg your pardon.

They eat your snacks, they won’t relax.

They chip your tooth, they steal your youth.

(And now you know the horrible truth).

Description - The Race

The race

As the runners come into view the crowd begin to cheer on all the athletes. The contestants' feet collide with the mud, leaving the terrain traced with footprints. Now the contender’s bright-coloured sneakers are as dirty as a swamp. Along with their shoes, mud is splattered up their legs too. Woosh! Another gust of wind is thrown upon us, on this blustery Autumn morning. Russet Autumn leaves dance in the wind. While watching the race some of the parents and other supporters fold their arms tighty to capture the warmth, as more cold breeze puffs past us.Cheering and applauding erupts from the crowd again as the athletes leap over the hurdles as agiley as a deer, springing over a fallen tree. They bound over the weather-beaten obstacles, then darting forward in a desperate attempt to lead the group.As the racers in front bolt ahead, only then do the others, taking up the rear come panting past. People cheer. Trying to encourage them, more of the crowd start to motivate and cheer on  the other sprinters. Their faces light up with happiness, as they continue to power through the course.Like icing on a cake, their shoes are now cloaked with mud. The clouds above are briquettes of recently burnt charcoal. The echo of the crowd dims down as some of the people look up, to see the rain clouds enlarging.Although the clouds have increased in size it has not started to rain. But all together it is a good race. 

Obedience class

 Obedience class alliteration poem

Something was making a scene

Down at the park.

Big blaring noises and

Boisterous barks.

A bunch of breeds

Were lining up on the grass.

For big dogs and small dogs

Obedience class.

All behaved 

Except for one.

It was the Baker’s beagle,

It had gone off for a run.

“Come back” barked the baker’s,

In their big booming voices.

But Bailey the beagle had made

Some very bad choices.

“Sit” screamed Mr and Mrs Salt

As their small pup ran away too.

‘Oh dear’ said someone

“What shall we do?”

“Down” demanded the Davidson’s

But their three had already dashed off. 

“Daisy, Dexter don’t do that” yelled the Dunns’

But it was too late their dogs had taken off.

Soon they had taken off past mr. and Mrs tall,

“Dear, oh dear said the examiner,

A fail for all”.

Summary for Harry Potter and the goblet of fire

Summary for Harry Potter and the goblet of fire

Part 1

The novel starts with Harry witnessing, in a dream, the murder of a Muggle named Frank Bryce at

the hands of Voldemort. He awakes with a searing pain in the lightning-bolt scar on his forehead.

The next day the Weasleys take Harry and Hermione to the Quidditch World Cup using a magical

teleportation object called a Portkey. There, Harry meets Cedric Diggory, who attends the game

with his father, Amos Diggory. After the match, the Death Eaters, (Voldemort’s followers), attack the

site, causing havoc. The Dark Mark gets fired into the sky, which causes panic since it’s the first

time it has been seen in over thirteen years. Winky, Barty Crouch Sr.’s house-elf, is blamed for c-

asting the Mark after she is found holding Harry’s wand, which was used to cast the Dark Mark

The trio returns to Hogwarts, where ex-Auror Alastor “Mad-Eye” Moody will be teaching  Defense

Against the Dark Arts. Albus Dumbledore announces that Hogwarts will host the Triwizard Tour-

nament, open only to students over the age of seventeen, and the prize for winning the tournament

is one thousand gold Galleons. It will be the first time in two hundred years that the tournament

has been held. Students from Beauxbatons Academy and Durmstrang Institute traveled to Hog-

warts and stayed the entire year during the completion.

Students who hope to participate must place their names in the Goblet of Fire. On Halloween nig-

ht, the Goblet picks Fleur Delacour, Viktor Krum, and Cedric Diggory, representing Beauxbatons,

Durmstrang, and Hogwarts. The Goblet also gives a fourth name, Harry Potter, causing controve-

rsy and suspicion since Harry is underage. Ron refuses to speak to Harry because he is jealous

that Harry is once again in the spotlight.

Hagrid tells Harry that the first task involves dragons and that Fleur and Viktor likely already know

about it. Harry communicates the information to Cedric in order to keep a level playing field. For

the first task, Harry has to pass a Hungarian Horntail to retrieve a golden egg, containing a hint

about the next task. Harry succeeds by summoning his Firebolt broomstick with the Summoning

Spell, and finishes the task tying for first place with Viktor. Ron reconciles with Harry after realizing

the dangers of the Tournament. When Harry opens the egg, it shrieks loudly.

Meanwhile, a reporter named Rita Skeeter is writing scandalous articles and embellished rumors

in the Daily Prophet about Hogwarts, Hermione, Harry, Hagrid, and the Headmistress of Beauxb-

atons.

The Yule Ball is approaching and Harry has to take someone with him, so he askes Cho Chang,

but she informs him that Cedric has already asked her. Harry eventually asks Parvati Patil and

Ron takes her twin sister Padma. During the Yule Ball, Ron is shocked and jealous to see that

Hermione attends the Ball with Viktor Krum. Cedric tells Harry that to open the egg, he needs to

take it to the prefects’ bathroom. Harry ignores him due to his jealousy over Cho.

However, as the challenge nears, Harry swallows his pride and takes the egg to the prefects’

bathroom, where Moaning Myrtle tells him that he needs to submerge it in order to understand the

song. He realizes that the next task will take place underwater, so he begins looking for spells

that would allow him to breathe underwater.

By the morning of the task, Harry hasn’t found a spell, but Dobby gives him Gillyweed, which

gives Harry gills when he eats it. The third task takes place in the Black Lake and it involves sav-

ing the person each champion cares about the most. Underwater, Harry looks at Ron and Hermio-

ne, unsure which one he is supposed to pick. Viktor takes Hermione to the surface. He completes

the task, finishing in third place, by rescuing Ron from under the lake and saving Gabrielle,

Fleur’s sister. After the judges tally the votes they award him second place, giving him more

points for saving Gabrielle.

One month before the final task, Harry and Krum are talking when they encounter Barty Crouch

Sr., who looks to have gone insane, but tells Harry to get Dumbledore.
