Science (gods)
In Japanese folklore, animals play an important role in the origin of earthquakes. According to a popular story, the cause of earthquakes is the giant catfish Manama. Hiding somewhere beneath the Japanese mainland, sometimes he wiggles his tail, causing an earthquake in the human world. People thought that it was the weird things that cat fish do before an earth quake starts.

P.E Gymnastics
Today in gymnastics I was practising the sequence that I am going to do in the future. I had a lot of muck ups during the time i was on the tramp because I wasn't landing my somersaults and I wasn't doing my handstand back rolls, but at times I landed my somersaults and almost did a forward roll on the parallel bar so i was proud of that.

Science
This week in Science we learned more about the layers and volcanos on the earth. There are four layers in the earth's crust, the thinnest and coldest layer of them is the crust. The crust holds the oceans and forms the continents below us, the second and most thickest layer is the mantle, the mantle is a thick layer made up of molten rock, the third layer in the outer core it is the second hottest and the inner core and is the hottest part of the earth.
Volcano disaster
Mt. Tambura is the deadliest eruption in recent human history, claiming the lives of up to 120,000 people. On 10 April 1815, Tambura erupted sending volcanic ash 40km into the sky. It was the most powerful eruption in 500 years. Upon entering the ocean, the force of the pyroclastic flow caused the creation of a series of towering tsunamis. Thanks to the enormous amount of SO2 emitted, the world experienced a severe temperature drop that led to global crop failures.
