4 EMBRACETHESTRUGGLESOf Weather By:Eli Burt and Saylor Timberlake Have you heard of a volcano? Earthquakes. Well this is what we are going to to teach you. How Earthquakes and volcanoes are alike, the survival and the inside and outside of a volcano and earthquake. now we will move on to Exploring the insides. Com pare The Predat ors Did you know t hat eart hquakes and volcanoes are very alike? They They bot h are form ed by t ect onic plat es colliding. They bot h are Dest royer?s. They dest roy our hom es and life. They also can help us. For inst ance volcanoes can m ake hot springs and eart hquakes can help dest roy building t hat need t o go. There?s a volcano and it s dorm ant you can use it for 1. dest roying 2.hot t ubs 3.fix our lives 4. All of t he above

5 Eart hquakes Eart hquakes and volcanoes are a m ajor problem so here?s how t o survive t hem. First get aw ay from glass at could hurt or even kill you! Get under a st urdy object like a t able so you don?t fall. Also if not in a building don?t go near one it could fall on you. Mini-story Survival Of The Fit t est Volcanoes The most safe volcano is a shield volcano Because you can stand on it when it erupts. But the problem is a composite volcano. When it erupts when you?re in the house close to it get to the basement so you don?t burn into a burned waffle. Also don?t get under wood it will burn in an instant so get under like? stone or titanium. Now you won?t be as lucky as before. There is a giant composite volcano about to erupt. You are close to it you decide to run as fast as you can. You barely make it out alive. Wanna know w hat inside an eart hquake and a volcano. Well here you go. Inside a volcano t here?s light ning because of t he frict ion t he m agm a cham ber also in t here it can get as hot as 12,632 degrees. Now for t he inside of t he eart hquake. The t ect onic plat es collide and t he form and is t he inside of t he eart hquake It holds m agm a it m akes light ning t hat fright ening it s bright t o. All of t his is very t rue -by Eli How w as t hat? Anyt hing you haven?t learned? keep w rit ing Just like us! GOODBYE!

6 Have you ever seen the ground crack be for.or a big cyclone in the sky. Well if you have seen this stay away from it Because if you Don?t you could get very hurt.the reason that i am telling you to stay away from it is that the crack is from an earthquake and the cyclone is a start of a hurricane!!!!!!!these things are very danger to be near Because it might happen in the same spot that you are standing in.you can get very hurt and go to the hospital. Funfacts!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Earthquakes can knock down a hole house in one earthquake Dest ruct ion Eart hquakes & hurricanes m ake lot s of dest ruct ion.it m akes so m uch t hings crum ble it looks like a bunch of people lit t ered all over t he place.they can also t ake t he roof of a house like a persian chopping dow n a t ree. o.fdf

7 CRACKBOOMHURRICANES &EARTHQUAKES BY:BLAIRVERMETTE & ASA PAUL Hurricanes VS. Eart hquakes So you know how eart hquakes are form ed Hurricanes and eart hquakes are bot h very dangerous.to know w hich is t he m ost dangerous you have t o know w hat t hey are t o decide it. Hurricanes are cyclones t hat spin like a t op. They are form ed by w arm air and w arm w at er. Som et im es hurricanes die dow n before t hey reach land. Eart hquakes happen w hen t ect onic

8 Lead It is pouring, huge w aves are crashing across t he beach and land. Giant gust s of are blow ing! What am I? What w ill you do about it? Som et hing is st art ing in a cloud and is going very fast in a circle. Light ning is going around t he What is a tornado and a hurricane? Well a hurricane starts on the water and can not start on the land like a tornado. A hurricane also looks like a giant donut. Hurricanes gain heavy waves that crash and the strong wind blows. It is also pouring very hard. But a tornado starts St rengt h and speed. A t ornado and hurricane are bot h very st rong and fast. A hurricane can hold up 40,000 pounds or m ore! A t ornado can also hold m ove a lot of w eight. It can m ove m ore t han 30,000 pounds! Wow! A hurricane can spin 200 m iles per hour! Wow t hat is fast! Well a t ornado can go 40-72, , , and A t ornado can go all of t hose speeds depending on t he scale, it is like f0, f1, f2, f3, f4 and even f5. So a t ornado and hurricane are bot h very st rong and fast!

9 What a t ornado and hurricane can ruin! Wow! Hurricanes can ruin people's healt h?? Oh m y gosh! Can t ornados m ake you lose your m oney?? Hurricanes are very st rong, so st rong t hat t hey can ruin m any t hings, for exam ple, Hurricanes can ruin t rees, by ripping t hem out of t he ground, t hey can ruin pow er lines by breaking t he w ire, also t hey ruin houses, cars, gardens and t hey rip off roofs!! Tornados do t he sam e, t hey scram ble t hings up, just like a blender! Tornadoes and hurricanes can m ake people poor because w hen t he house get s ruined t he m oney is in t here house so t hat 's t he end of t hat! Also t hey ruin gardens and t he food t hat is grow ing so t hat m eans people w on't have food!! Which is st ronger t ornadoes are st rong, just like hurricanes! But do you know w hich one is st ronger? Find out by com paring! Tornadoes are sooo st rong, t hey can m ove m ore t han 30,000 pounds! They can probably m ove a hot el like feet!!! Hurricanes are pow erful! A hurricane's w ind speed is 200 m iles per hour. Also it can rip off roofs, t rees, t elephone w ires, roads and m ore! Hurricanes and t ornados can bot h m ove m ore t han 20,000 pounds, and t hey bot h spin around. Tornados m ove 30,000 pounds and a hurricane m oves 40,000 pounds! Hurricane?s spins like a giant donut and a t ornado looks like a funnel. A t ornado can m ove a huge hot el 100 feet and a hurricane can rip off roofs, sidew alks, and t elephone w ires. If you t hought t ornados are st ronger you are part ly correct because t hink of it. It can m ove a hot el 100 feet in t he air! But on t he ot her hand hurricane?s are st ronger because can lift a good 40,000 pounds off t he ground! So act ually t hey have t he sam e st rengt h and it is a t ie! In m y opinion hurricanes and t ornadoes are very very different! Did you know? A hurricane looks just like a spinning doughnut I t hink t hat everyone should m ove t o Maine or som ew here safe w here are no hurricanes or t ornados. Did you know? A t ornado Is like A big Funnel! Hurricanes have alm ost t he sam e w ind pow er but t hey st ill are different in w hich is st ronger, how t hey form and t heir shapes and sizes! Maybe you w ill see a hurricane or t ornadoes w ind

10 Tornadoes vs. Eart hquakes WRITTENBYMARC HAGANANDNICKCREEK Have you ever been in a earthquake or tornado if you have you should find your parents and leave that town. We are going to teach you about how do they start,how deadly are the,the deadliest tornadoes and earthquake and how to stay safe did you know that some of the smallest earthquakes and tornadoes are some of the deadliest. How Deadly are Tornadoes and Earthquakes Tornadoes and earthquakes are really deadly like tornadoes can make people fly up in the air. Earthquakes can make people fall down in the crack in the ground from the earthquakes if the earthquake is strong enough. The different from how deadly a tornado is too how deadly a earthquake. A tornadoes can destroy building, cars, farms, and houses. Tornadoes kills thousands of people each year. Earthquakes can hurt people and damage their home?s and the ground crack?s and shakes building?s but I think that tornadoes are more deadly than earthquakes and that is how deadly tornadoes and earthquakes are

11 The Deadliest Eart hquakes and Tornadoes Som e of t he deadliest t ornadoes and eart hquake are t he ones in t he sm allest t ow ns. Som e of t he m ost t errifying and dangerous t ornadoes are t he one in Jarrell,Texas on May and in Missouri on March 18t h 1925 t hey are very sim ilar because t hey w ere bot h EF5 and w ind speed up t o 201 MPH or KPH. Som e of t he t he m ost dangerous and t errifying Eart hquakes Are t he San Francisco Eart hquake and t he Port Royal Eart hquake in 1692 t he San Francisco had a 290 m ile crack called a fault and t he m ost of t he Eart hquake w as fire and t he Port Royal Eart hquake in Jam aica all t urned int o quick sand so every body sank int o t he ground and t he people w ho survived drow ned from t he t sunam i lat er so t hey are not sim ilar at all. I hope you liked the book you learned some cool stuff like how to stay safe, how do they start, and all the Dangerous stuff. That is how tornadoes and earthquakes start and how deadly are they and how to stay safe. Hopefully you will know how to stay safe if

12 Eart hquakes by: Evelyn Goudreau When t here is a eart hquake you should be scared but if you are act ing chill t hen ot her people m ight get t he idea t hat it?s ok. When t he eart h is shaking and you are at w ork or school if you are t here and a eart hquake happens t hen st ay aw ay from t he follow ing bookshelfs,t all lam ps et c. Because if t hey fall on t op of you and hit your head it w ill hurt and t hen it w ill knock you unconscious and you w on?t be able t o get out of t he building.hid under a t able and hold it dow n so t he w all and st uff w on't fall on t op of you. Why do w e have nat ural disast ers? Why do we have natural disasters?one of the reasons that we have earthquakes is the tectonic plates hit each other and then start to blob up and make the earth crack because they keep pushing all the ways they want and keep going until the earth cracks open completely!

13 DISASTERALLEY BY: JULIE ALVARADO HOW TO BE PREPARED DURING A HURRICANE! What causes a natural disaster,why do they happen? Well you?re not the only one wondering these things so don?t worry! Hurricanes have interesting way they are created! How do you get prepared for a hurricane? Well there are many ways to become prepared for this storm first off you need to know when the storm will hit so you can keep watch on the weather to see what it will be like then. Second off you need is to get what you need to stay safe and sound, you can pack this in your house and board up your windows and if you still feel unsafe you can go to a shelter to be in a good supportive community! Stock up on bottled water, and canned foods and family medicines if needed. Stay Safe and Stay In the tropics when the sun is out and and the waters cool the air is warm and stuffy and has low pressure and and the warm air rises and while the warm air rises the cooler air with high pressure starts to replace the warm air?s place, and with all of this happening and if it keeps going in a cycle it will form a breeze and later on a stronger wind will take over and with all of the moisture in the air over time will create a hurricane! And depending on if it was created near land it would hit land or not even reach land it could die out. Hurricanes can either die out or hit the surrounding land! The cyclone can die out depending on if it has a steady stream of warm water to feed the storm and the winds can blow the storm Many miles across the ocean! I think this is pretty interesting! What about you? Now that you know alot about hurricanes and earthquakes test your friends ask them what to do to protect them self when a earthquakes happens and also if they dont know it then tell them what to do just in case.

14 Could t he Next Volcano/ Eart hquake be in Your Backyard Kaboom, Crack no is that a fault is lava coming out, is lava making a volcano BOOM!! That's more destruction than we can use. The next explosion is Mount vesuvius, Mount Saint Helens well then Kaboom! Now safety is the key what do you do go here go there? Hurray! Your safe. So follow and see a shake. Volcano Breaks Through Did you know that a farmer in Mexico (Unknow Name) he was working in his cornfield and that happened to him. So if you have a earthquake and a crack show up somewhere tell you parent/ gardians about that because there could be lava come your way to make a volcano. Next Explosion Nobody Knows what the next explosion might be in your backyard. The chance is 1%. Though it could happen. A giant earthquake make a fault then lava will spray through and BOOM! In 3 weeks you could have a 50 foot tall volcano In 3 months you grow a 200 foot volcano. So you in a year would a full grown lava spewing volcano. So no it is not going to happen but if it did your own town would be like Pompeii. With no life left they all died or got badly injured or evacuated. It is realistic but also fiction because i doubt that it will happen to many people far outside the ring of fire like we are. So consider yourself safe for little while. The volcano might come and come in bunches and that is when it gets bad!

15 Volcano Vs. Eart hquake Boom, Crash! The volcano gives m ore in one blow. It has lava dest roy m ore t hought. But, an eart hquake shakes it up a bit i m ake volcano fire and all t sunam i?s landslide. It m akes it all. Why t hat inform at ion helps m ake t he call t he volcano m akes hard rode dest roy som e cit ies t he answ er it t ough so t hink your brain off. The w inner of t his w as really close. But t he volcano w ins by t he lavas t ail. By: Sam m y Raio Jam es Giles Caleb Murphy Fault Problems Did know that a fault is something that can make an earthquake. It is pressure that is being pushes the earthquake to shake. The way that fault lines are made,are from tectonic plates being pushed together. Also,that could help form shock waves. Imagine yourself holding a balloon. You squeeze and squeeze,until eventually???...it POPS!!! Thats kind of like an earthquake. The shake makes a crack because of all the pressure in the quake. Then later on the magma starts to boil. Hot sticky gross stuff oozes out of the crack. Like the balloon, it pops. And it breaks through. So now you know how things are unpredictable the volcano could be in lots of place. So you know there are dangers. Especially volcanoes and earthquakes. And they are everywhere And problem earthquakes. If you want to know more look in other books. Thought you should know that the best way to explore is to go outside and explore. Have you parent/guardians take you for a walk so your inner science comes out. But make sure you have fun!

16 What s Worse HURRICANES VS DROUGHT Hurricanes Vs Drought s By NATHAN JUNG DOLINGER drought Hurricanes and drought s bot h can kill people, but hurricanes can be evacuat ed fast er t han drought s. So, t hey are not as bad but on t he ot her hand hurricanes are super dangerous. Drought s can kill plant s so t hey st arve people. Som et im es w hen hurricanes are super bad t hey are nam ed nam es like Hurricane Andrew and Hurricane Kat rina t hey w ere very bad hurricanes t hat killed m any m any people. Hurricanes are m ore dangerous because t hey dest roy buildings drought s dont. That is w hy hurricanes are w orse t han drought s hurricane What do you t hink is w orse?
