Hello readers.
Last week my reading group started learning about the eye.
I am learning to read and find the appropriate information i am searching for.
Here are three facts i have learnt so far about the eye.
the first article I read was all about sleep. By Jill Mcdougall.
Dolphins can swim while they sleep. They only rest one half of their bran at a time. The other half stays awake.
Walruses also float whlie they sleep.The dig their long tusk into the ice so that they do not float away.
Some ducks sleep in a row on the water. The ducks on the end of the row keep one eye open while they sleep. If a predator comes near, they can warn the others.
I think the author wrote this because she wants us to learn all about sleep and how nocturnal animals sleep.

Hi Christina.I really enjoyed reading about how and why some animals sleep with their eyes open. Animals really fascinate me and I enjoy learning about them.I have learnt some things from your facts. I know walruses have long tusks, I didn't realize that they dug their tusks into the ice to stop them floating away. That's a COOL fact. I thought that most ducks would sleep on land and not the water.You'd hope that during the night the ducks would switch positions otherwise the end duck will be too tired to fly if a predator came. Maybe that is something you could look up next time and add it to your facts. Cheers
