Water Conservation

  Hurry!practice saving that water now.  This resources could vanish just like that if we don’t save water  immediately.
    Instead of having people going to the water fountain every kid can bring one water bottle everyday.  Don’t just use a few  dishes use a full load.  Every time you wash the dishes it takes about 50 gallons of water a day.  We can try to take shorter showers each day.  One time my friend was so thirsty he almost drank a whole gallon.  A whole sandwich could take up to 100 gallons of water!  You can wear the same clothes for 2 days.  Most americans use up to about 500 gallons a day.  Every time you flush a toilet it takes up to 10 gallons.                                                                                                                                       We can practice water conservation as soon possible.  Now get going and practice.

How Volcanoes Erupt

Volcanoes can erupt at any time.  First we need to know where do volcanoes get their lava.  Volcanoes  get their lava from the core its when two plates collide and one plate slides under the other one.  Then it causes the mantle to melt and it melts more rock and when it has too much pressure it cracks open and explodes.  When the lava cools down and it makes a volcano.  Next when the volcano erupts it blat out lava or magma,  bombs,  glass,  and pumice in the air.  Sometimes volcanoes can explode with only smoke.  The volcanoes have a magma chamber where it sits before it shoots out.

Mount Vesuvius and Mount St. Helen’s

Mt. Vesuvius and Mt. St. Helen’s are two of the most famous volcanoes in  the the world.  Mount Vesuvius  is the only active volcano on mainland Europe.  Mount Vesuvius is considered to be one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world due to the large population in the cities around it.  Mount St.  Helen’s was surrounded by trees.  Natives call Mount St.  Helen fire mountain.  The last serious eruption was in 1944.  Under Mount Vesuvius scientist detected a tear in the African plate .  Shortly Mount Vesuvius made a wall of volcanic mud and covered the town of Herculaneum.  Mount Vesuvius first eruption was in A.D.  79 Where it destroyed Pompeii.  Mount St.  Helen’s erupted on May 18 8:32 a.m. Mount St.  Helen is in Washington.  Mount St.  Helen’s has only killed 57 people when the eruption happened.  Researchers have found 80 skeletons in Mount Vesuvius in a boat.  Mount Vesuvius erupted because of earthquakes.  Mount St. Helen’s erupted because of earthquakes and steam explosions.  Both volcanoes had earthquakes because they were showing warnings they were going to erupt.  Only less than 100 people died at Mount St.  Helen’s because they followed the orders to evacuate.  Many people died at Pompeii because they thought Mount Vesuvius was only a mountain.  Mount St.  Helen’s and Mount Vesuvius are two famous volcanoes that people enjoy learning about.

Winter Troubles

Once upon a time there lived 5 friends there were Bob the bear,  Rocky the rabbit,  Todd the turtle,  Chyna the chameleon,  and Robert the raccoon.  One Fall the animals were having fun playing around all Fall.  Until Todd felt a cold breeze on his shell and declared,  “What season is it?  “I don’t know?” said Robert.  So all the animals walked to the squirrel’s tree and asked them “What season is it?”  they all asked “Well if you are asking it’s winter.”  The papa squirrel expressed “Winter!”  All the animals screamed.  Then the animals ran to bushes they thought that had berries in it.  “What are we going to do now!”  Asked Rocky.  “I guess we should go around the forest and find food.”  spoke Todd so they ran to trees,bushes,and dumpsters.  “Hey where is Todd?” asked Bob.  “I guess he is lost somewhere.”,  explained Chyna.  However the were still going to find food.  “What do you have to eat.”  declared Robert.  “A bag of marsh mellows,  7 apples,  a black berry,  and 20 raspberries.”,  stated Bob.  Then they heard a scream the animals rushed to where they heard the scream and they looked at a frozen waterfall.  They observed a green mark under the ice and saw Todd was in the waterfall and a lot of berry bushes.  Bob started breaking the ice and Bob got Todd out of the waterfall.  Then all the animals collected the berries and went back to their home.  Next they lived happily ever.  The End
