= ** Week one: ** = This week all the kids in room 22 made there own wikispaces. We have all ready learnt how to put movies and photos onto the pages and were going to learn a lot more. I hope we all end up with big pages full of information. This term we are focusing on natural disasters.


 * Questions: **

I would like to know how asteroids are formed and what they're made out of?

=**Week two:** = This week we have to answer the questions **what is a disaster,what are the different types of disasters and what is the most dangerous disaster.**

What is a disaster -I think a disaster is an event where something gets destroyed or wrecked.

What are the different types of disasters -Some disasters are earthquakes, volcanoes, twisters, drought, bush fires, tsunamis and lots more. What is the most dangerous disaster -I think the most dangerous disaster is an earth quake because it can create giant craks in the ground and make tsunamis.

This week we all have been putting a voki on all of the pages.

= **Week three:** =
 * This week we the grade 5s were at camp so no homework. **

=** Week four: **= This week I have put a movie and photo on my wiki page. We have learnt that and how tectonic plates create earth quakes volcanic eruptions and tsunami. We also know that the center of the earth is hotter than the surface of the sun.And I now know that the most volcanoes are found in the ring of fire witch is in the pacific ocean. I think!

This week we have to answer the questions **what do we do to classify a disaster and how are they measured.** What do we do to classify a disaster -

How are disasters measured -I think that disasters like earthquakes are measured by the richtor scale witch measures the size of the tremer or shake.

= ** Week five: ** =

What are the layers of earths structer -First there is the crust, then mantle, after that there is the outer core, then finaly there is the inner core..... I think?

What recorses do we use from beneath the earth -We use coal, oil,dimonds and heaps more.



= Week six: =

This week we talked about the atmospheric layers.There are 5 layers to earths atmosphere.Most planes fly in the stratosephere.The stratosephere is the most stable atmosphere.

what are the diferent atmospheric layers above us -First there is the troposphere then the stratosphere after that it i s the mesosphere then it is the thermosphere finaly the last is the exosphere.

What affects do the sun and the moon have on the earth -The sun has effects like warming our planet and canging the weather.The moon dose things like pulling the tides in and out.

= Week seven: =

This week we talked and descused how all the planets can change our planet.Also what could happen if they wernt there.

What affects do the solarsystem have on earth -If the planets wernt there we would probably get pulled into the sun,but since they are there they all pull on each other and us till we dont go up or down and I think that the gravity is what makes us spin around the sun.
