I ( Amy )even though I am not in your group, have read the newspaper cover to cover and it supplies a lot of information on Antarctica. It was really interesting.
Also I noticed that one of the people who wrote the articles was called Amy as well!

the main idea is that the ice shevles and ice bregs are mealting and the sea level is riseing

so i think that all ice is mealting and the sea is geting biger and that is because of globol worming and some antarcticas ice bregs are mealting

I think it is telling us about ice shelves and glaciers and how they melt and form. One thing I found interesting is that there is a ice shelf called the ''loose tooth'' and I don't even know why the ice shelh is called that.

The main idea is that the Glacier, Icebregs and ice shelves are melting. that mean the sea levels are rising fast.

I think i was a good artical because it told as about how big the biggest ice block was.
She talked about climate change and if all the ice melted the sea leval will rise 57 meters

This article about Lynnette Hoffman is very intersting because she talked about about all the different ice bergs also what they found in the last 50 years 212 glaciers retreated by an average of 600m.

Prue!
