www.environment.nationalgeographic.com
www.weatherwizkids.com/weather-tornado.htm

What have i learnt?

I learnt that tornadoes are extremely dangerous and they sweep the path in its way.

Rangi did hers on the black death and i learnt that what you may know as the kids nursery rhyme is actually about the plague; Ring around the rosies. I also learnt that the Black death wiped out over half of Europes population!
Some people did there powerepoints on earthquakes considering the catastrophe that happened in christchurch. New Zealand is right in the middle of a fault line which makes earthquakes happen so we are more prone to earthquakes.

MY Natural Wonder Of the World .

I think that Mount Ruapehu should be a natural wonder of the world because it is one of the few active volcanoes in New Zealand. Many people/tourists visit the mountain because of the many activities you can do there including skiing or snowboarding. It is in National park meaning you can walk around and there are beautiful waterfalls and wonderful sightseeing places.
