Horrible Tsunamis (Sad)

Hey bloggers in today's post i'm going to show you my tsunami work! It was about the 2009 tsunami in Samoa and Tonga. I did not FINISH my third task so i only did 2 tasks. I am very sorry It was a very devastating event and i hope it does not happen again. Hope that you enjoy!

Create Task 1

The story was about A girl and getting ready to go to school. It was based on a real story 2009 in Samoa and Tonga. It all started at around 6:45 in the morning and a big earthquake stuck! It was really big with a magnitude of 8.1! It created a tsunami and destroyed the lives of 189 people. It destroyed many villages and houses but it is all rebuilt.

Complementary task

Tsunamis are caused by sudden movements on the ocean floor due to earthquakes, landslides, land slumping into the ocean, large volcanic eruptions or a meteorite crash on the ocean floor.
