Term+2

I didn't write about term one because we basicllay did all about me and the 16 habbits of mind. In term two we learnt about natural disaters. We went to IMax to see a movie called Forses of nature. It had a documentry about three natrual disaters. The natrual disaters were tordados and cyclones, earthquakes and volcanos. We also did this rotation with the grade 3/4 teachers. We learnt about some natrual disaters like volcanos and cyclones. I liked to learn about natural disaters because they were very intresting. I am glad to be in Australia because not many natural disaters happen in Australia. Today we are doing this incurtion called Hands On Scince. I think we are going to do make volcanos and tornados. I hope I learn about 20 facts by the end of the day. Hopefully I will at least learn one. Intresting facts: did you know that Cyclone tracy struck Dawin on Christmas eve? Volcanos have two cores. Inside a cyclone or tornado it is calm. Earthquake it is the most deadly natural disater. Lightning can only hit the tallest thing in the area it trys to go. E.G. If it were in a golf field it would hit the golfer. Cyclones are named in afibetical order. E.G. If it was the second cyclone that came in a year, it would be named something that starts with b. We did a activty I metioned earlier called Hands On scince. We did four activitys. I recently did a homework task. You had to write about what you learnt about natural disaters. I wrote about weathering and erosion, earthquakes and volcanos. I thought it was really fun. A couple of weeks ago we started this thing called a Inqiry. Its when a group of people get together and study a subject. I'm with Eleana and Tamsyn. We are studing monsoons. Monsoon are a wether patten.
