On t.v. 1news there is a really bad tsunami that had happen in Japan. It happen on March 13th 2011.

When you look at the Tsunami you can see parts of the buildings splashing in the water. And you can see enormous,and a big wave coming near you.

When people had completed climbing up the building they could hear cars crashing into each other.

The Tsunami was breaking lots of stuff including power lines,buildings and cars .

I know what people think when they can see the Tsunami I can damage our love ones.Also the Tsunami horrible.

When the Tsunami crashing the people was panicing.After that they yelled out to there friends and family ‘s to get out and we told them to go climb up the tall building where every one is.

As we were safe up the tall building we were just looking at the Tsunami until it was finished.

Tsunami Description


Tsunami Description
Hello I’m live in Japan. At 3am it was starting to shake. When I walked outside I saw a huge thing outside. The huge, enormous thing was coming closer. As soon it was very close I knew it was a tsunami, so I was telling everyone to wake up.

When I was viewing I could see smashing waves,people climbing big towers and I could even see people’s hearts were broken.

It started to get worse and worse. There was furious water charging into this small city. As I was looking the tsunami was catastrophic.

I could hear screaming, houses crunching, cracking and also splitting. I could hear cries for loved ones and even electric lines snapping.

There were people speaking to each other. The tsunami was damaging houses. After that it started to go brown and the tsunami made lots of smoke.

I felt the fear of the screams, felt water climbing up to my shoes. My mum was working today and her building collapsed and I was nervous. It has been a horrible thing to happen.

Layers of the Earth

WALT make a model of the layers of the earth out of play-dough

So.... that when learn about natural disasters, we can use our knowledge of the layers to understand them better.
To.... help us in topic and science and learn about the earth around us.

The crust is the first layer and has 7 huge plates. It includes the continents and seas. It’s 15-75km thick.

The mantle has two parts. One part is lower mantle and the second part is the upper mantle. The upper mantle is 400 km thick. It is iron, magnesium and silicates.The lower mantle is 2300km thick and has more dense then the upper mantle.

The last two layers are the outer core and the inner core. The outer core is 2300km thick. It is liquid which means it’s just like water and is very hot. It has nikel, sulphur and iron. The Inner core is 1220km thick. It is solid and contains a temperature that goes up to 6650 degrees Celsius. I made all of the layers of the earth out of play dough.
