Japan's Earthquake and Tsunami
Japan’s Earthquake and Tsunami
If you are wondering how the tsunami happened there was an earthquake under the sea. It was too much for the sea. It went up, up, up and up. The people were standing on the building and some went missing. Do you know how many people are missing? 10,000 are missing. Some people are dead. I am sad for the babies that are dead.

In Japan there was a tsunami and an earthquake under the water. There are 10,000 people missing and it was scary when they went missing. Your family might of died too! But you don’t know yet. Heaps of cars are under the water. The wave was very very high. It was 10 metres high. It was freaky when it happened on the beach for them. It was on the road and it went into the homes. The boats were damaged and your could have been killed in it. It brought four waves. The homes busted and it was in the house. It was on T.V one. All my family turned it on T.V one and they were sad. At home my nana is trying to help them and I was scared. Mum was crying loud outside. Same as my next door neighbours. They were crying. I didn’t like it. So was my sister. She was crying too! She went on and on and on. She wouldn’t stop crying. It took hours before she stopped crying.

In Japan there was a big, big, big 10m tsunami. It was scary. There were 10,000 people missing and I did not go fishing because there was going to be a tsunami over here. We were scared if the tsunami was here. Then my sister started to cry as we had a fright. My sister was funny. The news was back on and it was scary too. I went to my friends and when I came back the news was still on and it was a massive wave in Japan. I saw people dead and cars and houses and people that were washed away. It was sad for me and Japan and the other people who were watching. My family is scared. Lucky the tsunami was not here as if it was her I would not be writing now. I’m sorry and I am not lying. I just feel sorry for Japan.
