What is frost?
Other things can also be covered with frost like cars, plants and trees. Some people who do not have carports or garage find their cars covered with frost in the mornings. They have to hose the car down to melt the frost because they will not be able to see anything while driving. It can be dangerous driving with frost covering the wind shield.Here in Auckland, we only get frost and sometimes, we get hail but we do not have snow. It will be hard for my dad to bring me to school in the morning because it will take time to remove the frost from our car. Other people will have the same problem with frost. Frost is very cold when you touch it. When you step on a grass covered with frost your shoes and your trousers can get wet. You also leave footmarks on the grass which look really nice.

Why do we hear sounds?
We hear sounds vibrating through the air in the surrounding. Then the sounds goes into our ear and it travels through the ear Canal,Eardrum and then sends message to your brain.
It tells you what kind of sound that you hear. We hear sounds when we listen to the music, when we talk, when birds sing, when babies cry or laugh or even when we yell.
We can tell what kind of sound we are hearing because our brain already processed the information. It is important that we should look after our ears and the eardrum because if they get damage you can become deaf and you can’t not hear any word.
Life can be very difficult
WALT use the correct writing structure. I know I can do this because I can group the information into paragraph.

Why Does My Heart Go on Beating?
Our heart beats faster when we run and jog because our body needs more oxygen as it pumps blood around the body. When we get tired of doing exercise and playing, the heart beats 60 to 80 times
a minute so you need to relax yourself so that your heart can relax too.
After blood it pushed to all parts of the body,
it is then pushed back again. It takes less than a
minute for blood to go all round body. Blood has four main components red blood cells, white blood cells, liquid and plasma.
When our heart stops beating we die. We should
look after our body by eating healthy food, by getting plenty of sleep and doing exercises. In this
way, we know that we try our very best to become
healthy people with healthy heart.
