We are at Exodus 19 Where Moses is at Sinai and it Trembles Violently ~Leading us into our study of Earthqakes this week. We watched a movie and read several books on The Great Quake of San Francisco in 1906. Anna wrote a great paper about it.

The San Francisco Quake

By Anna Watts Grade 2

The Great Quake was very loud. Animals ran all around like a sign the earthquake was coming. The gas and electric pipe were close together. When the earthquake came it broke them and made a huge fire. The fire almost burnt the whole city.

The fire was very strong it was hard to put out. The people traveled 7 miles to the park. They had no water until they found it on a hill, but not much of it. It was not enough of it to put out the whole fire but they did. So that was how it was.
