Hey everyone!
The past couple of weeks Ruru has been learning about natural disasters! We did 2 others abut for the independent one I did tsunamis! This was really fun to do! First we had to read things about tsunamis and watch videos! Then we had to write the facts down. Then when we had enough information I had to create a information report about tsunamis! The other one I did was bush fires we had to do the same for tsunamis as well. The last one I did was tornadoes. This was really fun because I liked learning all the new things!
This is my information report for tsunamis:
Bushfires
By Amelia
What is a bushfire? A bushfire is a large fire in the scrub or forest that can quickly get out of control. Bushfires in Australia are a widespread and regular occurrence that have contributed significantly to shaping the nature of the continent over millions of years. They can be very dangerous when they occur where people farm and live.
Why are bushfires dangerous? Because they can kill animals. They can spread very fast and can get very bad. Bushfires can burn down houses and peoples land. Large particles in bushfire smoke irritate the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. The finer particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and are more harmful. Smoke also contains toxic gases, such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxides.
What causes a bushfire to start? Bushfires can be started by natural causes, such as lightning strikes, or by people (accidentally or on purpose). Materials such as leaf litter, bark, small branches and twigs, grasses and shrubs can provide fuel for bushfires. Dry fuel is more likely to catch fire and burn easily damp or wet fuel may not burn. Also when it is very dry.
How can you stop a bushfire from happening? regularly mowing the grass and raking up leaves. 1. removing weeds and pruning bushes and trees. 2. keeping garden beds moist through mulching or other non-flammable ground covers like pebbles. 3.regularly clearing leaves from gutters, roofs, downpipes and around the base of trees. If you find that there is a bushfire, get as far away as possible.
This is my information report on tornadoes:
Tornadoes Information report
Have you ever seen a tornado in action before? They can be so powerful that they can suck up big buildings! They can last up to 17 hours.
What is a tornado? A tornado is a violent rotating column extending from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with speeds up to 500 mh per hour. Tornadoes can suck up things like cars, houses and much more.
Do you know how tornados are formed? When a large thunderstorm occurs, warm air meets dry air and then it forms a big or small tornado! There are lots of types of tornadoes as well.
There are different types of tornadoes. Supercell is a long violent tornado! A supercell can make some of the most violent tornadoes. A waterspout is a tornado that forms over water however when it gets to the ground disappears. Landspout is like a waterspout but on land. It is weak and is associated with the spinning of a thunderstorm.
