What Is A Hurricane? (Writing practises)

Since last week, we've been doing writing practises in order to prepare next year for NCEA. Last week we had Mr. Langley, however this time Mr. Philips taught us this week. Our topic was about Hurricanes. We wrote how this natural event forms and the effects of it.

"There are different kinds of Natural Events, and one of them is Hurricanes. A Hurricane—could cause strong winds up to 270 km/hr—is  a fierce storm that forms over warm bodies of water. Significantly, Hurricanes occur both North and South of the equator but not within 5°. Flooding is the outcome from heavy rainfalls, which could also cause storm surges and storm tides. With these, Hurricanes can be deadly. Homes of locals can be damaged or destroyed by strong winds and floods. People may lose their lives. The Agricultural Industry and Fishing Industry are also affected by these Natural Events as a result, people could also lose their jobs."

I really enjoy doing these practises especially the posters we use (in order for us to understand and it makes it easier for us to understand). Personally, I think my writing skills are definitely improving because of this.

  1. Hi Alyana, I enjoyed reading about hurricanes because your writing is well organised and descriptive. I look forward to reading your thoughts on Musical Theatre.
