Spring
In spring, rainbows come after it rains. Clouds are filled
with teeny drops of water. The drops grow and grow.
When the drops get too heavy to hang in the air they fall
down as rain drops.
-Arriel
Spring
It rains a lot in the spring. Rainbows come out in the
spring. Leaves grow in the spring. It gets warmer in the
spring.
-Jack
Summer
In the summer people play tag. In the summer people have
fun. They like to go to the park. They swing and they go to
the pool.
-Tayvanna
Fall
In the fall you can jump in piles of leaves. The leaves turn
bright colors. Leaves fall off of trees in the fall.
-Alisha
Winter
Most blizzards happen in December, January, and February. That
means vehicles can’t go anywhere. Blizzards keep grown-ups from
going to work. People also make sure they have lots of food. Blizzards
only happen when it is cold. It has to be less than 32 degrees
Fahrenheit for snow to fall! Snow contains a lot of air. That makes it
much lighter than water.
-Payton
Winter
Snowflakes form inside clouds. Water vapor forms inside
of a cloud. We wear warm clothes. We will have fun.

Lightning
Thunder is the sound that lightning makes when it heats
up the air around it. This type of lightning is called
forked lightning. Thunder storms happen when a
cumulonimbus cloud forms in the sky.
-Reagen
Hurricanes
A hurricane can cause the street to flood. They can destroy
houses. The rescue worker carries a scared dog. People
across America help rebuild cities after a hurricane.
-Katey
Hurricanes
Hurricanes begin over warm ocean water near the
equator. Hurricanes need moisture to get started. Wind
and rain clouds can form a tropical storm. Hurricane
winds move faster than 74 miles per hour.
-Frankie
Tornadoes
There can be rainbows during a tornado. The tornado names are
wedge, waterspout and rope. There can be more than one tornado in
the same place. Air can rotate. Most tornadoes hit in Tornado Alley.
Tornado Alley includes Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and other states
too. Tornadoes can hit almost anytime, but most tornadoes hit during
spring and summer months. Warm weather makes storms stronger.
-Katelyn
Tornadoes
Tornadoes are one of nature’s most powerful storms. The safest
place during a tornado is your basement. If you don’t have a
basement, a room with no windows is safest. Tornadoes can
last for hours! And some just last for 10 seconds!
-Josie
Tornadoes
If warm air hits cold air it may form a tornado or twister. Most
tornadoes happen in April, May, or June. Tornadoes usually
strike a few minutes after a thunderstorm has stopped. If there is
a tornado, go to your basement or storm cellar! If you don’t have
a basement, go under a table or into a room with no windows.
-Rebecca
Super Storms
Super storms can destroy half the city in one minute. Every
second hundreds of thunderstorms are born around the world!
Hailstones are sometimes larger then a pencil and can break
things. Hailstones can kill people and destroy cars.

Floods
Earthquakes
Earthquakes are scary. They can collapse houses. If
people have alarms they can tell us earthquakes are
coming. If there is a crack in the ground, do not go near it.
-Zoie
Volcanoes
There are over 1,500 active volcanoes in the world. Some
volcanoes shoot out lava/ melted rock from inside the
earth. Deep inside the earth, temperatures are so high that
rock melts into a hot liquid called magma.
-Jamal
Floods
Water, water, everywhere! It is a flood! Flood facts: Floods can
damage food, furniture, and clothes. Floods can get into
basements, living rooms, and other rooms. Floods can cover a
whole community. In a flood, marine specialists can help people.

Two brothers, Wibur and Orville Wright, made the first
flights. Pilot Charles Lindbergh was the first to fly alone
across the Atlantic Ocean. The Boeing 747 made its first
flight in 1969. It carried nearly 500 passengers.
-Logan
Fighter Planes
People that you see using jets are from the Navy, Army, and
Marines. They make big bombs that are so cool! The engines
of a jet make it go 1,800 miles per hour. Can you believe it?
F/A-18 Hornets do two jobs! The Hornet is a fighter and an
attack plane!
