Genomes

Inside your body you have 100 trillion cells. There are different kinds - skin cells, blood cells, brain cells etc. Cells can die and your body makes new ones.

INSIDE EACH CELL there is a nuclear. 

INSIDE the nucleus, there are a person’s chromosomes. 

A person has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs). 

INSIDE EACH chromosome is that person’s DNA. 

DNA is shaped in a double-helix (two spirals together). This is the TWO SETS of DNA.

A gene is MADE OF DNA. 

You get your genes from your parents (you inherit them). 

They decide the information for your body - hair colour, skin colour, height, disposition to medical conditions etc.

The Palestine Israel War

The Palestine Israel war is a conflict over land. Thousands of years ago, Jewish people lived in Israel. They built holy temples like Solomon’s temple and other holy places like Dome of the Rock and the Western Wall. Over time, different people conquered the land (Israel) and took over. First they were conquered by Alexander the Great, then by The Roman Empire, then by Arab and Asian conquests, then they were persecuted by the Christian church in the Crusades. Jewish people had to keep moving to new lands. They moved towards Europe over time. Meanwhile, the land where Israel once was is now called Palestine. 

In 1917, the Jewish people were promised land/independence if they helped the Allies win WW1. The allies won this war, so the Jewish people were given back Israel. However, the Palestininan people now lived there.

The two people - Israelis and Palestinians, now fight over the land. Nobody can agree who has the right to be there.

Skydiving Story

 Once upon a time there were 4 boys called Fereti, Wesley and Michael. They were planning to go skydiving because they wanted to spend time with each other. 

Wesley’s age is 25, his job is chief and boxing. Michaels job is sports and chief and his age is 24 . Cedric's job is at the airport, he is 23 years old. Fereti is scared of heights so we let him face his fear.

When the boys left to go skydiving something bad happened. That thing that was bad was a fire. The boys went to the plane and saw a bush fire near the plane cause the plane was near the bushes. When Wesley spotted the bush fire he dialed 111 fast as possible. And Michael stopped the car and turned around. After 20 minutes no policemen or firefighters  showed up so Michael and his friends went to the fire engine place and reported to them fast. And then they went to the police station because the bushfire was about to touch all of the planes. The fire made a big explosion cause of the plane that was next to the bush. When the police and the firemen went to the rescue they couldn’t take the fire out so the rain came down.

The rain was pouring down and the rain helped cause it was taking out the fire. And god helped the policemen and the firefighters cause the angels were with them 100%. When the fire ran out the policemen and the firefighters were laughing cause they didn’t take out the fire.
