  1. I think Ms. Claire chose this picture because of our unit of inquiry on human impact. I think the polar bear is standing on a small block of ice because the ice is melting because of global warming. Global warming happens because of the human impact on the climate. The polar bear could lose his home if all the ice melts. Polar bears live on the ice in the northern hemisphere where it is cold. They eat fish and seals and other sea animals but I'm not sure what else they eat. Polar bears have good noses to help them smell food. This picture makes me feel bad for the bears because they are loosing their home. The bear in the picture looks skinny like it doesn't get enough to eat. It would be good if people tried to save the bears by stopping global warming and try to help save wildlife.

  2. It makes me think about polar bears with ice under their belly shaped like a chef's hat. I think you have chosen this picture because it is interesting. It has do with the environment and the animals and people are killing them. Polar bears are being killed by poachers and they are drowning. The ice chunks are melting because the water is warmer than an ice cube. The polar bears could become extinct. The human impact is bad.

  4. I think the polar bear looks lost because it is all alone. I think the ice is melting because of global warming. Global warming means the earth is getting hotter

  5. Polution from people with cars and factories. And the earth is getting hotter and that makes the ice melt and the polar bear home is destroyed .

  10. I makes me think about someone or something stuck in the middle of the ocean on a small island or on a boat.
    I think Ms.Claire chose this piece of picture because it is based on the unit because there are two environment which are animals and oceans/water.
    I think the ice have melted because people are using cars and factories which makes it hotter and hotter so it is destroying the polar bears home.
    The Sun might get two hot the fishes would die and the polar bears have nothing to eat and he is stuck in the middle of the ocean so he can't find his family.
    I notice that polar bears have very thick fur to keep warm and they are very big and very good swimmers

  12. It reminds me of the Arctic ocean. I think Ms.Claire chose it because water is the background and also Environment and we are learning about Environment.The ice is disappearing because of the climate change and global warming.The problem that the polar bear could face is that the ice is going to melt and he\she has to swim.I learned that polar bears are really good swimmers too. And i know that polar bears like to eat arctic foxes,reindeers,rodents,musk,ox and fish but they mostly eat seals.

  13. It remind me of a frozen mushroom ,I think what are causing this to be alone is global warming and it is seperating because the ice sheet crack into little pieces because it is too hot, and what is causing global warming is people are making smoke and make it hot.People are causing this which make me so surprised the reason I am suprise is because us human being only want money when you have love and kindness.It really looks like a white broccoli which is frozen. Hopefully in the future people will care about our earth and make less animals homless/endangered.
