Earthquake Intructions

Tsunami Writing Sample

“You are coming to Japan live with Meleana. She has important news to tell you all that are watching...” "Well as you know, there had been devastating tsunami here live in Japan. As you can see, people are praying and crying with hearts broken from this bad news." "There are people cold, homeless, with no food and water. I can feel sadness hit me like a fire ball coming towards me. When I was going to take a breath something caught my nose and I even smelt salt water, dust and smoke. I could hear people breath out fear from their lungs." "I could even see houses smashing into each other and the tsunami ripping the houses that were in its way. Looking at people hugging their family and checking if they are okay and that no one got hurt." "That was Meleana coming live from Japan. You were watching 3 news and now it is time for Close Up live." REPORTER:Meleana PLACE:Japan THIS WAS:One news NOW IT IS TIME FOR:Close Up
