WALT: Structure an information report and elborate on the main ideas.


THE ATMOSPHERE



You need food. Water, and the sun to survive, but the most important thing you need is a layer of gases that surrounds the earth. That is called the Atmosphere.

The Atmosphere contains carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, and many particles, like water and dust. All these ingredients are important because together, they are worth all of our lives.

With special molecules like ozone, the dangerous radiation gets filtered out. The gases are the main ingredient that protects earth from the vacuum and radiation in space.


The climate is a circulation of particles and gases. There are many climates across the world. One type of climate is based over the Pacific Ocean and another by the North Pole. The higher you go up a mountain, the more the temperature drops. Since the earth is always rotating, the temperature will never be too hot or too cold in the same place.

If there was no Atmosphere we would all be lifeless and dead. The sun gives off solar winds, which are streams of radiation. It is the density of our Atmosphere that keeps us alive. So we are all very lucky that the Atmosphere is here to protect us, because we would be lifeless if it were not protecting earth.
