  2. Hi Megan. I feel guilty just like in the book because of all the people who had to go through this terrible earthquake. I was born 1 year before the quake which is 2010. I never knew what the Canterbury quake was until now when we started reading the book. The quake made big changes to the city for E.G Smashed windows and glass, unstable buildings, broken furniture, cracked roads, people hurt and dead and LIQUEFACTION EVERYWHERE!!
    Have you ever been in a real earthquake? (I haven't)
    Bye!!

  3. Kia Ora Ms Judd it's Kapiri,
    I think some of the effects the earthquake were liquefaction, cracked roads, tumbled over buildings and sinking cars in liquefaction.
    What would you do if you were in an earthquake?
    Bye:)

  4. Hello Megan!!
    I think these pictures look pretty bad. It would be very bad if we were in an earthquake.
    Their is a lot of liquefaction in these pictures it would be so hard trying to dig it all out. I would not want to fall down one of those roads. It must be so hard trying to clean that all up!!! What would you do if you were in a earthquake?? Blog you later!!!

  6. Hi Miss Judd.
    I think that some of the devastating effects were that people were killed. Cars sunk into the sloppy liquefaction. Bridges got demolished in the devastating earthquake. There were huge cracks down the middle of the road and shops were destroyed. But the worst effects out of that was people dying.
    I am lucky that the earthquake did not destroy Auckland.
    Would you be scared in a earthquake?

    Blog Ya LATER!

  8. Gidday Room 7 I noticed in the pictures that you put in that the houses are beginning to be unstable after all of the earthquakes and aftershocks. The road is beginning to crack in half. Some cars are beginning to sink into the liquefaction and people won't go near the broken glass which has been broken out of the house windows.
    Have you ever in your life been in an actual earthquake?

  11. Hi Megan,
    Samantha here.
    I think that the results of the earthquake are devastation, life loss and homelessness.
    Some houses got mangled so bad they where inhabitable, lives were lost, killed in rubble and other peoples daily lives ruined forever. Liquefaction crowded the streets like an ever growing army of unforgiving soldiers, forcing people to to shovel it up or face the consequences. People were made homeless, unable to live in houses and forced onto the streets for cars have been smashed and covered in liquefaction. People fled Canterbury for a better life and a fresh start.
    That is what I think, how about you, what do you think?
    Samantha.

  13. KIA Ora Mrs Judd Zejm here. I think that something devastating in the book is the liquefaction, the devastating cracked roads, the shop's food supplies are all over the floor. I also think that the bridge in the picture looks like a roller coaster because it looks like a bent or curved spiral track a roller coaster would go on. You can also see that the road picture looks like little tiny waves from the beach but grayish white color. But there's one more thing though, you can see the house in the picture is not stabilized because people can fall through the house and hurt them self. What thing's look devastating to you? blog ya Later:)

  14. Hello Mrs Judd Its Richie. The devastating effect of the earthquake is that there's cars's sinking down the concrete. There's also stuff that fell down from shelves from shops. There is also broken houses and shops from streets and there's broken cracks in the road. There's also the worst part about the earthquake, rubbish! There is rubbish in the streets and in the the houses and shops. What do you know about the earthquake? Blog ya later. Bye

    The photos look so bad, I would not want to be in that Earthquake.
    There is so much liquefaction everywhere they, it is going to take so long to dig it up.
    There is so much damage lots of windows and glass thing are broken.
    All the shops stuff has fallen of the shelves and broken.
    It would be terrible to go through that.

  18. Kia Ora Room 7, my name is Stephen from 24 at Owairaka District School and I'm a Year 6.
    The most devastating thing's that happened in Christchurch is the big, earthquakes that Christchurch has sometimes and the little and the huge aftershocks too.

    Also that the children use the big bumps on the road as ramps for there skate boards and scooters, even the children use the liquefaction to make sand castles because the liquefaction is like wet sand and dirt.

    But the people in Christchurch have to clean all the liquefaction up because the cars get stuck in it, also the buildings that is in Christchurch are very badly damaged.

    Even one of the people lived next to a mountain then a big rock came rolling down the mountain and went strait through the house.

    What do you think?

    Blog you later.

    By the only Stephen πŸ˜‚πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜…

    Bye
