I hope you had a great weekend. As I promised you, I am posting the questions for this week's reading reaction before class. Here they are:
1. Did you learn anything new about earthquakes from the reading?
2. Did you find new words? Share at least 2, write their meanings.
See you in class,

EARTHQUAKES
ReplyDelete1. If I learned that some 80 percent of all the planet's earthquakes occur along the rim of the Pacific Ocean, called the RING OF FIRE because of the preponderance of volcanic activity there as well.
The earthquakes occur at fault zones, where tectonic plates-giant rock slabs that make up the Earth's upper layer-collide or slide against each other.
2.New Words.
a.Mud slides: derrumbes.
b.Strikes:huelgas
c.Waves: ondas.
d.Tectonic Plates:placas tectónicas.
1. I learned that earthquakes occur 1,000 of times every day aroud the world.
ReplyDeleteI also learnd that the rim of the pacific ocean its called The Ring of Fire.
2. New Words
Tectonic Plates: placas tectonicas
Tremors: temblores
Collide: choques, chocar.
I learnd reading this that because of the preponderance of volcanic activity along the rim of the Pacific Ocean, the 80 percent of all planet´s earthquake occur there.
ReplyDeleteNew words:
Tremors: A shaking or vibrating movement, as of the earth.
Sway: To move or swing from side to side; or backward and forward.
1- yes i learned about of the earthquakes becuase more of a quake measuring 3 to 5 is considered monir or light;5 to 7 is moderate to strong ;7 to 8 is major;and 8 or more is great . and more of 10,000 people die in earthquakes annually.
ReplyDelete2-new words
squeezed = exprimido
following= siguientes
sway= sacudimiento
well.about earthquakes I learn so much about this like when are tremors seismic and earthquakes is the time if is 3 to 5 minutes is concidered light ,5 to 7 minutes is moderate to strong 7 to 8 or more is great. and consequences of this
ReplyDeletetoo I learn about the plates the earth.
and few person dead in this seismic.
new words:
sway- balanceo
waves- olas
rim- montura borde
unnoticeable- impredecible
1. Did you learn anything new about earthquakes from the reading?
ReplyDeleteI learn much about the earthquakes... Some 80 % of all the planet's Earthquakes occur along the rim of the Pacific Ocean.
Also a quake measuring 3 to 5 is considered minor or light, 5 to 7 is moderate to strong, 7 to 8 is major and 8 or more is great.

yes I lean new words in this topic ...
1. Faults
2. Unnoticeable
3. Hard
4. Strikes
5. Compounded
6. Efforts
7. Buildings

1. Did you learn anything new about earthquakes from the reading?
ReplyDeleteYes, I was reading this interesting page about earthquakes or temblors. There are hundred´s everydays and thousand´s in a year but they are frequently in the Pacific Ocean. when the tectonic fault collite between them when this fault zones stretched or squeezed.
The scientist divide the temblors in differents ranges:
3 to 5 this is a small or minor.
5 to 7 are moderate
7 to 8 major and 8 or more this is really destructive.
Emergency plannig, education and safe construction will avoid that hundreds lifes are lose every year.
2. Did you find new words? Share at least 2, write their meanings.
along the rim: a lo largo de
upper layer: capa superior.
collide:chocan
1- Did you learn anything new about earthquakes from the reading?
ReplyDeleteYes, of course I learned many things about the reading, because I did not know that earthquakes also called temblors occur by the thousands every day around the world, and the magnitude rating to the earthquakes based on the strength and duration of their seismic waves.
2-Did you find new words? Share at least 2, write their meanings.
yes,I learned a couple words from the reading.
Sway= movimiento, balanceo
the rim= al borde
unnoticeable= impredecible
Question 1- I learned the earthquake and the different consequences that it can produce, also something interesting was about how an erathquake can affect a poblation or city specially if some cities that are close to the beach, because the earthquake can create big waves that can become in demgerous catastrophes for thoses countries.
ReplyDeleteQuestion 2- words:
*tremors - temblores
*strikes- huelgas
*mud slides- deslizamientos de lodo
*collide- chocar
*sway-influencia
Did you learn anything new about earthquakes from the Reading?
ReplyDeleteSi, I did. I read about measuring rating to earthquakes and magnitude this is new for me because I believe of measuring rating was only 1 to 5 like a tornador.

Vocabulary
Preponderance preponderancia
Plates placas
Slabs losas
Plates placas
Collide chocar
Strikes huelgas
Sway rather ocila
Earthquakes is a amazing natural fenomenon. I learn many things about it like a scientificts assign a magnitude rating to earthquakes based in the duration of their seismic waves
ReplyDeletenew words
strikes: huelgas
collide: chocar
tremors: temblores
sway: influencia, movimiento
1- something new that I learned is the earthquakes it's no only called this form also are tremors are part of the nature and also the meaning of each magnitude rating of them. When they occur with the major magnitude more than 10,000 people die and some houses dessapear totally is so terrible for the world that exist.
ReplyDelete2. my new words
Rim-borde
Tectonic plates- placas tectonicas
collide- chocar
sway-sacudimiento
slabs-losas

1. yes, i learned many things becuase i never imagined that earthquakes occur daily and that to me was impressive.
ReplyDelete2. at fault zones: zonas de falla
collide: chocan
sway: influencia
strikers: huelga
1- I learning about earthquakes that are called temblors and it can be compound by mud slides, sway, fires, flood or tsunamis. It is dangerous when you are fence of it.
ReplyDelete2- sway: sacudimiento
tremors: temblores
plates: placas
collides: chocar
mud slides: deslizamiento de tierra
squeezed: exprimido
1. Did you learn anything new about earthquakes from the reading?
ReplyDeleteI learned the magnitude rating that scientists assign to earthquakes based on strenght and duration of their seismic waves.
2. Did you find new words? Share at least 2, write their meanings.
Sway: to move or swing to and fro, as something fixed at one end or resting on a support.
Rim: any edge, margin, or frame added to or around a central object or area.
Mud Slides: a flow of mixed earth debris containing a large amount of water.
1. I learned that earthquakes can also called temblors, can be tremendusly destructive and it ocurr thousands every day around the world.
ReplyDelete2.The rim: al borde
Tremors: temblores
Collide: chocar
Learned That Earthquakes can be very strong .
ReplyDeleteI also learnd That the rim of the pacific ocean STI Called The Ring of Fire. of times
