We made it! Curiosity reaches Mount Sharp

Complete the gaps of this text about Curiosity Rover in Mars:

Hi, my ............................... is Katie Stack and I'm a Curiosity rover mission


scientist here at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and this is your Curiosity Rover
Report.
After 2 ....................... and nearly 9 kilometres of driving, we finally arrived at the
base of Mount Sharp.
Before we even arrived at Gale Crater, we used our orbital images to begin our
exploration of Mt Sharp.
What we found was an important boundary separating the sediments of the
Gale Crater floor and the layers of lower Mount Sharp. The rover is now
......................... at this important boundary.
An earlier path to Murray Buttes would've delayed our arrival at lower Mount
Sharp. However, a couple of months ago, we decided to take a
.................................... path because it was more scientifically interesting and
that brought us to Pahrump Hills, where were encountering rocks on lower
Mount Sharp nearly 2 kilometres before we originally expected.
This bright outcrop is Pahrump Hills. It's about 15 ............................... across. At
this location, we're looking forward to obtaining our first drill sample of lower
Mount Sharp.
And while we're excited about what we may have found here, our exploration of
Mount Sharp is really just beginning.
As ............................................. planned, we'll be exploring Mount Sharp layer
by layer. Along the way we'll be encountering a number of interesting geologic
features where we're looking forward to continuing our search for ancient
habitable environments at Gale Crater.
This has been your Curiosity Rover ..................... Check back for more updates.

6.- So, what ............................. us from the rest of the mammals?

TYPE OF MAMMALS

Monotremes are animals that lay eggs, such as a platypus. While they do produce
milk for their young, like all mammals do, the milk is secreted out of the skin on the
mother's chest (they do not have nipples). The platypus spends much of its time in
water so it has closable nostrils and tiny ear slits. Label the nostrils and ear slits. The
platypus has a blue-gray bill shaped like a duck. Label and color the bill. The fur of a
platypus is dark brown and they have webbed feet and a flat furry tail to help them
swim. Label and color the fur of the platypus and label the feet and tail. The male
has a poison spike on his hind ankle. Label the poison spike.

Marsupials are mammals that give birth to live young. These mammals have a
pouch where their young grow and develop. One of the biggest differences between
marsupials and placental mammals is that marsupials give birth quite early and rely
less on the nourishment of the placenta. The Red Kangaroo has large ears and short
Mª José López Galindo
1st grade Biology and Geology Bilingual Project

arms with claws on the hands. Label these three features on the kangaroo. The soft,
woolly fur is usually blue-gray on females and often reddish-brown on males. Color
and label the reddish-brown fur. Females have a pouch in which the young live and
drink milk. Label the pouch. Kangaroos can jump great distances due to their long,
muscular tail and their powerful jumping legs. They also have 4 long toes on their feet.
Label the tail, jumping legs, and toes.

Placental mammals are mammals that give birth to fully developed live young.
They differ from marsupials in that the babies spend more time being nourished in-utero
by the placenta. These mammals are hairy and warm blooded as well. Some examples
are mice, rats, and bats.

Circle the mammals:

- rain - snow - rivers

1. When the s _ _ shines on the sea, warm air rises and forms water v _ _ _ _ _.
This is called e _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _.

2. The water vapour in the air c _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ into lots of tiny drops of water so small
that we cannot see them.

3. The tiny droplets bump into each other forming bigger drops that we can see as a

UNIT 9B. THE HYDROSPHERE. Water erosion.


Water erosion happens when water moves the pieces of rock or soil downhill and carries
small pieces of material with it. In the ocean, waves also carry away small pieces of
material. A wave can wash up onto the surface of rock and then carry away pieces of
material as it flows back into the ocean.

The size of earth materials that can be moved by water depends on how fast the water is
moving. A fast-flowing stream can carry large rocks while a slow moving stream might
only be able to carry very small things like clay.

1st. Classify the landforms into the next table:

Water Cycle Song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3QwLYfgwP0

Somewhere out there, the sun is shining on a little puddle. That’s just part of something
we call the WATER CYCLE.
Water from the little puddle turns to gas – EVAPORATION
Gas forms into puffy clouds – CONDENSATION
The clouds get heavy and the rain pours down – PRECIPITATION- and we’re puddles
on the ground

Chorus:
Oh the water cycle, Round and Round
Vapor goes up and the rain comes down
Water in the sky, in the ocean, on the ground
It’s all in a cycle going round and round

Some clouds look like a horse’s tail – that’s CIRR


Water in a river, in a glass, in a cloud,
US
Some clouds look like cauliflower – that’s CUMULUS
Some clouds look like a blanket of grey – that’s STRATUS
There are high clouds, low clouds, and in between clouds
Fog on the ground is also where we see clouds

Yeah Yeah Yeah

Repeat chorus

When warm air meets cold air, trouble brews,


That could mean a storm and that’s bad news
A hurricane can form if that happens near warm water
Look out when that storm reaches land
Get out of the way
Grab your sons and daughters
Crash Bash Boom and KaBam
Oh No We Forgot Uncle Dan
It’s OK. I’m all right. I was just hiding in a garbage can.
He was hiding in a garbage can.

UNIT 10B – TYPES OF ROCKS.
Igneous rocks
Igneous rocks are formed when the magma cools and solidifies. There are two types:
Plutonic rocks are formed underground when magma cools and solidifies slowly.
Plutonic rocks have large minerals. An example is granite.
Volcanic rocks are formed above the Earth's surface. They are formed when volcanoes
erupt. The lava cools and solidifies quickly to form rocks. Volcanic rocks generally
have small minerals. An example is basalt.

Metamorphic rocks
Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have changed from one rock to another rock form,
because of the high temperature and pressure deep in the Earth's crust. Metamorphic
rocks often have layers or bands, like marble.

Sedimentary rocks
Sedimentary rocks are rocks that have formed from materials called sediments, which
are slowly deposited in some areas like oceans or lakes. Sediments accumulate forming
horizontal layers called strata. An example is limestone.

ANNEX III. "The 3 R's"

Three it's a magic number


Yes it is, it's a magic number
Because two times three is six
And three times six is eighteen
And the eighteenth letter in the alphabet is R
We've got three R's we're going to talk about today
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
If you're going to the market to buy some juice
You've got to bring your own bags and you learn to reduce your waste
And if your brother or your sister's got some cool clothes
You could try them on before you buy some more of those
Reuse, we've got to learn to reuse
And if the first two R's don't work out
And if you've got to make some trash
Don't throw it out
Recycle, we've got to learn to recycle,
We've got to learn to
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Because three it's a magic number
Yes it is, it's a magic number
