My class and I have been learning about natural disasters, and the natural disaster I chose was the flood in Tuvalu, Tuvalu is where I come from and its my nationality, Tuvalu is one of the smallest countries in the world and its part of the Pacific Ocean. Tuvalu now is currently sinking and it hurts seeing my people struggle to get the water away but all we’ve got to do is pray. And hopefully they’re all alright. But my class and I got to pick a natural disaster and do a report writing about it, and of course I chose the flood in Tuvalu. I learnt many things while researching about Tuvalu. I’ll show you my doc and hopefully it makes sense. If you see anything off , don’t hesitate to tell me in your comments!. Heres the doc 🙂

The Flood In Tuvalu
General Statement :
Tuvalu faces a dangerous natural disaster at 1am in the morning. Tuvalu is currently in danger because the island is beginning to sink and the water is rising.
What Happened :
Late at night at around 1am, a flood hit Tuvalu,
Lots of families woke up to water under their beds and on their feet, kids were traumatized seeing water enter their houses and parents stressed, houses were halfway underwater but luckily they were alright.
The Cause :
Some say it was caused by something in the water or maybe a leak but it was obviously caused by Climate Change, and the Island is currently sinking, some are trying their literal best to keep the land above the waters and get back Tuvalu, but whatever they do, nothing seems to work at all.
Damage & Cost :
The flood left the island to sink and lives being at risk, the houses are currently underwater and children are not able to go to school now because of the water. Parents also are disturbed by the water from going to work, but they’re all trying their hardest to get rid of the flood.
Rescue/Search :
Some Australians are actually in Tuvalu right now trying to get the island to stop sinking and helping the people there, but whatever they do, nothing seems to work, but hopefully the island doesn’t end up sinking and the people are safe.
Summary :
The island of Tuvalu is now sinking, and the citizens of Tuvalu are trying their best to get their island back up and to keep the people safe.
