Hello everybody today I am going to be telling you about my vocab about the Napier Disaster. First, let me explain what we had to do. Our teacher wrote some words down that we had to turn into sentences but the words that she wrote down were related to the Napier Disaster. For example, Debris because there were so many broken buildings so there was a lot of debris. Anyway here is my work hope you like it :)

Hello everybody today I am going to be telling you about this very unique-looking creature it looks very cool if I am being honest. It's called an Australian frilled neck lizard cool name right.
As soon as I saw that name I looked it up immediately. Then I saw an image of it I said to myself "it looks like some sort of dinosaur" But really it was a sort of lizard so let me start telling you some facts about the Australian frilled neck lizard.
The frilled lizard is sometimes called the bicycle lizard. This is because it runs on its hind legs when it is scared.
Most frilled lizards are less than 12 inches long. An open frill stretches from 9 to 14 inches wide, making it at least as big as the rest of the lizard.
Frilled lizards lay tiny eggs in a nest in the ground. The newborn babies can take care of themselves.
Frilled lizards stand on their back legs when they raise their frills to scare another animal.
that's all for today's blog post thank you. hope you enjoyed baiiii ^_^
