How waves are made

How Waves are Made.

How waves are made

• Waves is mainly a product of the wind.
• Wind is the first step in the information of surble waves.
• Local shore ways can also produce waves.
• They can also destroy quality of the breaking waves.
• In a way, offshore winds are a sort of a counterbalance.
• Swell comes from miles away and  the wind works as a pause hold effect on the wave face, allowing longer unbreakable waves.
• In theory, low pressure systems are responsible for creating good and strong waves.
• If winds created in low pressure systems keep blowing the surface of the ocean for  the ocean for a long time.
• Along the way, until they are ridden by surfers, these waves will have to challenge other variables.
• Waves make their way through the ocean and are affected by the differences in the ocean floor.

My Netbook Reflection

Hi, My name is Moses, I am a year 5 student at Glenbrae School and I am in Room 9. My

Teacher is Mr. D. Nath.

This year was an exciting and fascinating year for me because I started using a Chromebook  as  tool in the classroom.  I was really fascinated by the thought of doing so many cool things on my Chromebook but it took me some time to really start using it effectively, it was an awesome experience and it was a pleasure using my Chromebooks this year.

On keyboards I am really good at typing so basically I know all of the shortcuts. It was a bit hard trying to learn the new generation keyboard techniques. But eventually I got the hang of it so that was cool. There were so many things to learn and tried my best to learn as much as I could from my Teacher I really appreciate what Mr Nath has taught me this year.

I have learnt a lot about each subject in class especially Maths. This has helped me understand a lot about the world and made me even smarter than I was before. I have learnt how to use my time tables in dividing problems and it has helped me in a lot of topics.

I have learnt how to use the Chromebook for my blogging, social skills and to do a lot of work starting from Term 1. I have helped my friends in class spell, answer Math problems and I helped them out with Reading through the learning sites on the internet.

I  am able to think about the multiple topics I am going to research on and write questions, using gmail, google docs and sharing my work on the blog. I am able read more online books, stories and articles while looking for information and deciding which sites are safe for me to access and use information from. Also sharing my learning on my blog and class blog.
