Project: Plate Tectonics There are eight major plates on the surface of the Earth. There are also bunches of minor plates.   They constantly move around the planet. Plates move about 10 cm per year. The tectonic plates are   floating   on top of the molten rock and moving around the planet which is called continental drift. When the floating plates spread apart, it's called a spreading center . When they are moving together, it's called a   subduction zone . When they are forced together, it is called a   zone of convergence . There were about 3 times when the land masses were in clumps, the oldest about 1 billion y ears ago, that is the Rodinia, next was called the Pannotia and the most recent one, Pangaea.  First Pangaea  broke in half into two pieces, Laurasia and Gondwana. Then Laurasia broke up into North America, Europe and Asia. Gondwana broke up into South America, Africa, Antartica, and Australia. North America and South America are gradually moving away from E

The Etruscan Civilization Introduction      Hi, my ancient civilization project is about a culture called “The Etruscan’s Civilization”. The ancient Greeks and Phoenicians had a lot of influence on the Etruscans. It was very interesting to learn about the Etruscans since they were a mix of the Greeks, Phoenicians and had a little originality of their own. I will take you on a fascinating journey back in the time to the Etruscans’ era. Time Period The Etruscans lived from the 11 th   BC to the 1 st   BC and they had 5 periods/ phases. The first was the Villanovan Phase, then the Orientalizing Period, the Archaic Period, the Classic Period and finally the Roman -Etruscan Period. Where they lived The Etruscans lived in Etruria, modern Tuscany. They were bounded by the Tiber and Arno rivers in northern Italy. They were west of the Apennine Mountains, in the region north of Rome. Fashion The fashion of the Etruscans during the 7 th   century BC was similar to the fash

One of my favorite projects was making a Seismograph.  The following is a written report on it: My project demonstrates a seismograph which will detect earthquakes.  A seismograph is the device scientists use to measure earthquakes. The main purpose of it is to accurately record the motion of the ground during an earthquake. It works on the principle of inertia of stationary objects.  Earthquakes are classified based on the type of damage they create. The Richter scale is a standard scale used to classify quakes. It is a  logarithmic scale , meaning that the numbers on the scale measure factors of 10.  On this scale, anything which measures below 2.0 is undetectable to a normal person and are called microquakes which occur constantly. A moderate (an average) earthquake measures 6.0 or less. An earthquake above 6.0 can cause hefty damage. My project, a seismograph, which is a steel structure attached onto a wooden base and suspended from the iron structure is a ribbon and a

I am starting a series of short stories called the Warning Stories. These stories are supposed to be like moral stories but a little scarier and with a warning at the end. Here is my first story which I call as   The Vicious Toys.   The Vicious Toys “Yay! Thanks mom and dad!” Arnav, the nine year old, exclaimed, dancing with his new Minnie Mouse figurine adding to his collection. He dashed off to his room and took all his toys off the shelf and started playing. He played late till night. When he was tucked into bed, then he had a thought,” What if my toys actually talked to me?”  He silently prayed,” O sri Krishna, please do some magic so that my toys talk to me.” He didn’t know about the shooting star which passed at the same moment he prayed. He fell asleep, content, and had a fantastic dream about his about to – be talking toys. “Hey wake up. Wake up. I SAID WAKE UP!” “Huh?” Arnav asked groggily,” Mom, let me sleep, it’s Sunday,” falling asleep again. “Kid, you bette
