Reading-Natural disasters

WALT:Use our analysing skills to select key information to summarise the cause and effects of a natural disaster.

Today we I been reading a text about volcanoes.After we read this we had to highlight the keywords and keyphrases and then right a definition about what a volcano is and what the causes and effects are.

The thing I found challenging was trying to find how a volcano happens. 

This is my work that I did.

Definition

A volcano is a mountain that opens inward  to molten rock below the earth's surface.

The cause

A eruption happens when the heat temperature rises inside a volcano. Then the lava tries to escape depending on the volcanoes slopes witch cause an eruption.

The effect

1. Peoples houses can get burnt down.
2. The ash and gas from the volcano can kill people.
3. They can trigger Tsunami, Earthquakes and landslides.
4. Volcanoes damage peoples houses.
5. When the volcano erupts lava comes out of it and then later on the lake drys up and turns into rock or stone.
6. People burn
7. No shelter
