  2. Hi Jolin
    You have been working hard. I like how you included the pictures of the birds you were describing too.
    Your Island looks great too, I noticed the coffee sign straight away, can I come too?

  3. Hi Jolin, Great work! Your island looks awesome- I think I would like it with the cafe and the campfire! I didn't know flamingo's had black feathers under their wings. I would like them to be on my island!
    Thanks for sharing.

  4. Hi Jolin
    Thanks for teaching me about the three birds. I was just telling Mr G that I wanted to learn more about those birds. I think I would pick the Kererū too, because it is native to New Zealand and is a very good looking bird. I love your island, especially because it has coffee there. I think I need to rethink the list of things I will be taking to my island.

      I had so much fun learning the three birds and the reason there is coffee at my island is because my mum needs to drink coffee everyday.

    Hi Jolin.
    What a super looking island you have created.
    I like that you have included some very interesting information about each of the birds.
    I have learnt things about the birds that I didn't know..
    Keep up the great work.

  6. Hi Jolin, super fact finder - I have learnt a lot about Toucans, Flamingos & the Kererū.
    I really like how you have chosen the Kererū to stay on your island.
    I am amazed to learn that flamingos can be 4 - 5 feet tall but they only weigh between 4 - 8 pounds, which isn't very much . . . now that's got me wondering and pondering - just how much does a 6 pound flamingo weigh in grams?
    Well, I know that a pound equals about 454 grams so that means a 6 pound flamingo would, um, weigh . . . um!
    Gosh, please help me out here Jolin - it's been a long day and my brain is fried from organising the quiz earlier this afternoon and, well, it's refusing to do anymore thinking today!
    Can you possibly give me the answer to stop my brain from hurting?
    Looking forward to receiving that answer Jolin . . . whilst I'm waiting I'm going to have to lay down for a rest!
    Have a great weekend.
    Mr W.

    1. Hello Mr W
      Here is the answer that will save your brain from hurting.
      how much does a 6 pound flamingo weigh in grams?
      like you said one pound is around 454 gram so we can times it by 6
      6x454=2724
      which means 454+454+454+454+454+454=2724
      Am I correct? Mr W
      Now you can have a nice sleep.

    2. Hey, thanks heaps Jolin for coming back with that answer for me, and yes, I think you are correct. It means I can have a nice sleep tonight now.
      But . . . now your answer has got me thinking that 2,724 grams must weigh something in kilograms . . . if only I knew how many grams there was in a kilogram then I could probably work it out . . . I think I'll leave that one until later cos it's rather late now and I need to go to sleep. Maybe you can help my brain out again Jolin and let me know what you think 2,724 grams is in kilograms . . . zzzzz zzzz . . . zzz. . . . zz . . . z

    3. Mr W
      1 gram=0.001 kg
      2724gram in kg is 2.724
      Am I also correct this time Mr W?
      I am also going to sleep after all these maths questions.
      Good night Mr W zzzzz.....zzzz...zzz

      Thank you for helping stop my brain from hurting . . . and now I can have a relaxing weekend.
      I hope you have a great weekend too and have a break from schoolwork.
