What I have Learnt :)


I had learnt that tectonic plates make an earthquake.
I also learnt that there are hundreds even thousands of people that would save us in an emergency  and that there are thousands of earthquakes, every day.
     
                                
                                   From other people I learnt that:  
                                                             
                                                    
                                                    DROUGHT:
  •   Drought is when the earth goes dry and there is no water. 
  • That a lake can dried up in a matter of weeks and all that is left is a dried up ground.
  • The longest Drought lasted for 400 year.
                                                   
                                          AVALANCHE:
  • Snow storms can kill hundreds of people if they are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
  • They can block the roads for a very long time depending on the snow.


                                            THE PLAGUE:
  •  That the nursery rhyme “ ring a ring a rosy  a pocket full of posies a tissue a tissue we all fall down” was about the plague/ how the disease worked
  • It was a terrible disease to get and it had killed a lot of people. 
  •  The disease came from flees that came from rats.
