What makes a tsunami?

Photo taken by Thomas
Today we did another experiment to see how a tsunami is created. This is a tote tray full of water to represent the ocean. It had a rise that represented the beach and we made model houses out of clay.

What caused the water to move? 
How is this represented in real life?

  1. When a earthquake happens the sea gets into a big wave thats what makes a wave .Maybe next time we could have ten houses on the beach and half of cup of water.

  2. An earthquake in the sea is what causes a tsunami. One happened in Japan and my aunty Emma is going to Japan soon. I hope there are no tsunami's while she is over there. I like Thomas' photos because he took them from the right place in the circle
