Mighty Muscles

We have been learning about  muscles. We read a story called Mighty Muscles. We had to make a DLO about all muscles in your body.

• We used  google drawings
•  then took a screen shot of a body
• put text boxes in and write all the muscles in them.

Thunderstorms

Thunderstorms

One of the deadliest weather features known to Mankind! are Thunderstorms! they have many attributes like Lightning,Thunder and much more.

The basic ingredients used to make a Thunderstorm are moisture unstable air and lift. You need moisture to form clouds and rain. You need unstable air that is relatively warm and can rise rapidly. Finally you need lift This can form from fronts sea breezes or mountains.

Lightning is an electric current within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice that bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge after a while the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges. Since opposites attract, that causes a positive charge to build up on the ground beneath the cloud. The grounds electrical charge concentrates around anything that sticks up, such as mountains, people, or single trees. The charge coming up from these points eventually connects with a charge reaching down from the clouds and ZAP!...  lightning strikes!

Thunder is caused by lightning when a lightning bolt travels from the cloud to the ground it opens a hole in the air called a channel. When all the air collapses back in and creates a sound wave that we hear as Thunder. we see lightning before we hear thunder is because light travels faster than sound. Thunderstorms Are caused by lightning depending in the distance and the nature of the lightning. Thunder can range from a sharp crack to a long loud rumble. The sudden increase in pressure and the heat from lighting makes rapid growth of the surrounding air and within a bolt of lightning .

Rain is one of the most common weather features that people get. Sometimes rain Is a good thing it helps farmers grow crops and a howl bunch of other things and if there was no rain we would be living on a desert! And sometimes rain is bad because it causes floods almost 113 times each year and it reacts people's lives every year.

I like Thunderstorms because of all the attributes that a Thunderstorm has. My favorite features of Thunderstorms are lightning,rain and clouds.
