What is a tornado

          What is a Tornado

Strong wind meets up with the cloud’s then the warm air from earth goes up. The strong wind force’s the warm air to twist with the strong wind.

Once the strong wind and warm air are combined they start twisting for a little while. It will create a thunderstorm.

When you know there’s going to be a tornado the sky will look dark,then the shape of the tornado will start to appear.

The strong wind and warm air will still be combined. Strong wind and warm air will make a tornado bigger.

The tornado will start moving and anything that’s in its way it will get pulled in the tornado,tornadoes mostly happen in United States of America.

The Mural

Gazing at the mural I look at Rif raf trying to remember where his statue is. A lightning logo was placed on his metal box that he was standing on. He was wearing a weird looking outfit, it looked like he was in the circus but I guess that’s what they wore.

The lonely dice

Maria

The lonely dice rolled down the sandy hill. It was a dark and stormy night it got struck by lightning then with one blink it turns into a giant dice. It stays on the edge of it’s body the waves pulling the dice into the water but the dice’s weight was to strong. The clouds were moving faster getting closer passing each other. Drip, drip, light feathered drops were coming down giving warning that it’s starting to pour.

Waiting in the dark

The black cat scanned the room with her silvery eyes. Her pupule of her eye was big she was hunting for a meal, the cat’s soft fur was sticking out, her fluffy paws placed on the ground every time she took a step. Her whiskers sense danger coming her way. She waited for her prey to come a bit closer so she could get a better shot...

she pounced!

moment in time

Sprinting as fast as I can sweat coming down my forehead.Running like a cheetah running against its enemy reaching closer to the finish, My heart pumping like its havinf a party, spectators cheering me on. I start to jog on the muddy steep hill, trying not to trip. My legs wanting to stop but I keep on going.
