The hungry wave

 Hey everyone!

The hungry zone: The hungry wave is about a tsunami that occurred in Samoa and in Tonga in 2009. There was a big earthquake and then there was a big tsunami it hit a lot of villages and killed 189 people. The story is about survivors and stories of what happened to them on that day. The family was getting ready for school and then the big earthquake struck them. It lasted for ages but then they have to go to school. When they were walking out the door they saw that the tide was going in and the ocean soon turned into mud. They could see all of the Coral that was in the ocean. The two kids tried climbing up a hill but then the tsunami hit Ana. She was washed away by the tsunami but her brother climbed up onto a tree and soon saw her head bobbing up and down out of the river he grabbed her hair and pulled her up onto the branch no one in their village died but other people were not so lucky. The characters in the book were Ava her brother Niko and Mika and their little brother.

Challenge text: The challenge text is about a little girl who learnt to make a tornato with 2 water bottles! Her teacher told her that water in the top bottle is replacing the air in the bottom bottle and as it goes down the tube makes a spinning vortex. It also happens in a bath! Then she went somewhere where a bad storm was brewing. There were dark clouds, that means that's a warning for a tornato!

Complementary text: The complementary text shows you what makes a tsunami. They show how tsunamis are formed and what they do.
