hi miss florence:
i click on the link and read what the uv is and that the ozone layer protects the earth, its ausum what the ozone layer and the uv does im oging to learn more about it , entering at google and puting what the uv and the ozone layer does and i will take it to class
Hello Miss Florence, now i could understand what it means wellin inglish because when i started doing the project i didn´t the word so i had to translate it to spanish and then ask my mother what it meant, Bye Miss Florence, see you tomorow at school, Agustina F.6C
It is very interesting, when i've clicked the link, i read and i learn. It was very cool, cause i didn't knew almost anything. By kisses Chiara R 6B pchica
Hello Miss Florence, The page had a lot of information! It is great! Now I understand what UV INDEX is! Allthough I HAD THE FIRST THREE DAYS TO Analize the weather! Weell the link is great! Happ week! Kissses Belu D
1. The seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation 2. The UV Index tells us how much UV radiation reaches the Earth. 3. The UV index predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale.
Hello miss Florence, Very interesting the UV index. Imagine that one day in Argentina there would be 11+. I would never be out of my house, or if I go out, with protection. There is another thing you said on class to bring for tomorrow, it was the UV in here today, but I dont know where to find it. Thanks, Ivan.S 6C
Hi florence: I really enjoyed this post, my mother too as she always tells me to put sunscream on. I learned 3 things: •If your shadow is taller than your UV exposure is likely to be low. •If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation. .Snow and water can reflect the sun's rays. In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength. bye Miri pchica 6a
Hello Florence, at first I didn't knew what a UV was but now thanks to you and the link you post, thhe thermometer helped me to know if it extremly high the sun shine, I shouldn't be at the sun from 10:00am to 4:00pm. It is great but the important thing is that you informed me when to be at the sun and when not. Thankyou, keep posting! Juan G 6A
I learnt that the ozone layer shields the earth from harmful UV radiation,that it predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale and that ozone weather and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the earth. My personal opinion is that I think it was very interesting.Bye.

Hello Miss Florence, it was very interesting the video. I learned that the ozone depilation is becuase of the UV radiation, also that the UV index tells you how much UV radiation reaches the earth and that when is high the UV index you have to aboid the sun exposure, you have to aboid it at 10 am until 4 pm. I learned a lot of things, and this information I think it help us a lot because if we dont know what is the UV index is in bain to get the weather. See you tomorrow!! Nicolas .I.
Hello Miss Flrence, it was very interesting the article. I learned that: 1- if the uv index is very high is better to put protection or to stay away from the sun expourse.(from 10 am until 4 pm) 2 Also I learned that the ozone depilation is because of the uv radiation. 3 and that the uv index tells you the amount of uv radiation that reaches the earth. Its a great page!!Its very helpfull because if you dont know what it means Uv index is in vain to find the information about the weather. See you tomorrow!! Nicolas .I.

Hi miss florence, I found that the UV index has drifent levels: -2 or less: means low danger from the suns UV rays for the avarage person. -3;4;5: Means a moderate risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. -7;6> Means high risk of harm of unnprotected sun exposure. -8;9;10: Means very high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. -11+...:means extreme risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
Hi miss florence, I read what the uv is and is awesome because the ozone layer protects the earth. I also clicked on the thermometer and it tells you what yo have to do if the sun rays are very hot or if they aren't. See you in class !
Hi miss Florence I learnt: 1.That the ozone layer is like a shield from te UV radiations 2.11+ UV radiations means extreme risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. 3.In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength. By...Mora P. 6A Pchica.
the link is great. I learnt a lot. I learnt that if you don´t take care of the sun you can have skin cancer. Now that i now i will take care. Bye it was very interesting.
hi miss Florence: I found very interesting this page, I learnt lots of things I didnt know, such as that when your shadow is taller than you the uv index is not hitting you a lot, but if your shadow is smaller than you the UV index is giving you very strong. Another thing I learnt was how we had to take care of our body, depending on the different tipes of tempreture, for example we have to use lots of sun protector in all of the tempretures.Also I learnt that the water and the snow can reflect the sun, taht can also affect your body. Very intresting page!!!!. Bye Sofi 6c olivos
Miss Florencee What I anderstud about de UV index is that The UV Index tells you how much UV radiation reaches the Earth. In winnter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength. Thank you for adding this link to the blog, because if not I woulden't lern was the UV index was! Bye see you tomorrow, Kisses Natalie.P Olivos 6B
Hello Miss Florence, i lerned a lot of the UVindex i lerarned that if you dont protect yopur skin you can get badly injured, and is one of the coses of the skin canser. greate post!!! bye
Hello Miss Florence, I think the uv index is very important and dangerous because it affects our skin and it can give us cancer of skin so we have to put protection Juan.V.P
i saw the link of the UV Index it is very intersting and if we still contaminatiting the ultra violet rays will traspass the ozone layer. We could have lots sorts of injuries, and there is diffretent numbers that are for saying how much can your skin irritate and depending for diffrenttipes of skin. bye, joaco 6c
Hello Florence, I learn that: 1 The UV index tells you much dangerous is the sun at that day 2 That from 10am to 4pm we have to have extra sunscreen 3 That we have to be careful of the sun when we play sports outdoors. Thaks for the link, santi a
Im glad you showed us this. That the atmosphere protectes us from the UV, if there were no atmosphere it would be very hot every day and we would die. Just like in the global wrming we got the atmosphere hole over us. If we keep un contaminating the earth we will no longer have the atmopshere and we would die thanks to the UV. Amalia.g 6A
The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. The UV Index tells you how much.And i now there are different levels of UV. Bye miss Florence thank you
The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. The UV Index tells you how much.And there are different levels of UV index too. Joaco r
I saw the page it is very interest the uv is a nother way of saing the temperatuure but this was hasn´t depend if it is cold or hot this depend of the sun. I never heard the name but know we are learning and it is very interes.
Hi miss Florence , I learned : 1) The ozone layer protects the Earth from UV radiation. 2)The season causes different amount of UV radiation to reach to Earth . 3) The Uv index shows us how much of UV radiation there is. The UV Index Scale was great , it taught me when to protect me from the sun and each number what represents and if I have to have precaution. Thank You Bye, Great post it was super Victoria I 6a
Hello Miss Florence, the site is great, because with a little of information, we can know a lot, without beign obligated to do so. I am going to tell you three of the many things I learnt from this site of U.V index are: That the U.V index can stain our skin badly. That the ozone, protect us from the U.V index, because if we didn´t have the ozone, we would die from being burnt! (the ozone doesn´t let pass a lot of U.V index to the earth, that´s why we don´t die burt). And that the U.V index changes a lot when the weather changes a lot or if the seasons also change. the blog is great...keep on posting ps: I like working with U.V index and that this will help us a lot with the weather we have to find! xxx meli b
Hello Florence: I learnt a lot of things in this post: The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
This really impressed me: An easy way to tell how much UV exposure you are getting is to look for your shadow: • If your shadow is taller than you are (in the early morning and late afternoon), your UV exposure is likely to be low. • If your shadow is shorter than you are (around midday), you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation.
That the sun rays could afect your skin very badly, The UV Index tells us how much UV radiation reaches the Earth and If your shadow is taller than your UV exposure is likely to be low.
Hellow Mis.Florense how are you im fine here i send you the things iv learned ive learned that .the ozon layer protects us from the uv index .it can harm you very badly if you dont have the corect protectio .swimmers and skyers have to use special protection because snow and water reflect sun rays and make it 2 times stronger .if tere is more than 11 it is better to stay indoors reading a book than risking your skinto dangerous ryes bye matthew
Hi Miss Florence In this link y have learnt that Uv index is of vital importance, because it has to do with our planet. If the rays are taller than our shadow your UV index is low. If it shorter your in high risk of UV index. The UV index thermometer is very good. If its high you should use sunglasses and protection. Lucas G 6A Pchica
I entered to the link and i found out: That the UV index is harmful
In the scale 11 is the extreme weather and menas extreme risk of harm.
It is possible to go outside when the UV Index is 11 or higher but you have to make sure that you look for shade, wear a hat, cover up and use sun block.
This information was really interesting and I hope I learn more about this.
Hi Miss Florence. A UV Index reading of 2 or less means low danger from the sun's UV rays for the average person: Wear sunglasses on bright days. In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength. If you burn easily, cover up and use sunscreen.Snow and water can reflect the sun's rays. Skiers and swimmers should take special care. Wear sunglasses or goggles, and apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. Remember to protect areas that could be exposed to UV rays by the sun's reflection, including under the chin and nose.

Hi Miss Florence, it is very interesting the uv and the the seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation!! very usefull information!
I learnt that if there is a very high Uv index high to extreme yo can get realy ill or skin cancer. Also that you can know the Uv index by the size of your shadow. Also that the UV Index tells us how much radiation reaches to the Earth 6A Juan Cruz CR Pchica
Hi Miss Florence This is a really interesting site and I learnt a lot like .Now I Know why does my mom punishes me every time put forget to sunblock on. .If your shadow is taller than you are your UV exposure is likely to be low. If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation. Seek shade and protect your skin and eyes. .The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. oxoxo Valu 6A pchica
A UV Index reading of 2 or less means low danger from the sun's UV rays for the average person.
A UV Index reading of 3 to 5 means moderate risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 means high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. Apply a sunscreen with a SPF of at least 15. Wear a wide-brim hat and sunglasses to protect your eyes.
i learnt that there were many levels of uv radiation, that depending on what level the uv was we had to take different precautions, and we have to protect ourselves in the smow or swimming because it reflects more the sun. Also that we always have to wear a hat and sunscreen while we are in the sun and that we have to look for shade.

Hi Miss Florence, I read it. 1. I learned that the UV index is very dangerous if you don't put sun-cream or sun-glasses. 2. That the most level of UV index is more dangerous and can harm your skin a lot. 3. In some hours you don't have to be in the sun and if you are in the sun, you have to protect your skin a lot because if not, it can burn in minutes. Bye
Hello MIss Florence Very interesting site! Well, complying with t´he post, three things that I learnt about the UV index are: -The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. - Also that, Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. -Knowing about e¨what would be tomorrows UV index is very usefull for you to take the right precautions from the sun. Well, hope you liked my commeny¨t, and see you on MOnday!!! LOve Vicky Sc
I just learnd what is the uv index.I also clicked on the link and it was great it tells what do you have to do when its not so hot it tells you to wear sunglasses. Bye carla.d
Hello miss Florence, Very interesting the UV index. Imagine that one day in Argentina there would be 11+. I would never be out of my house, or if I go out, with protection. bye federico j 6b olivos
I like a lot this post and I learn a lot , the three thing taht I learn are: 1 The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. 2 Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. 3 It predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale that helps you decide what to do to be safe in the sun.
WEll I leanr´t a lot I like a lot this poost and I learn more thing but you told as that we have to put only 3 things kisses chiara f 6C olivos
HEllo miss florence I really think that this site was very useful to learn a lot about the uv index because when we had to do look for the weather we didn't know what it was.... The three things I learnt are: 1: The ozone layer protects the earth from the UV index. 2: You should protect yourself if the UV index is more than 4-5-6 3: The different seasons and the weather make the UV index change and be higher.
If your shadow is taller than you are in midday, your exposion to danger caused by UV rays is not high. I also learnt that the UV index helps you predict how you will have to protect yourself from the sun the next day. And finally, I read that the UV index is represented in a scale from 1 to 11. I know that 11 is extreme danger, that 8,9 and 10 is very high, that 7 is high, lower is moderate, and 2 or less is low.
Hello Miss Florence I learned that even at the mountains where the weather is very cold the sun burns. We need to take care when the shadow is shorter than you at midday. It means that the uv radiation is high. If your shadow is bigger than you it means that you may stay for some time before you get burnt.
Hi miss Florence, I learnt that the ozone layer protects the Earth from harmful UV radiation. Another thing that I learnt is that the ozone layer (that now is polluted)forms a thin shield high up in the sky. It protects us from the sun's uv rays.And one thing I didn´t now was that too much UV can cause bad health like skin cancer and eye damage. I also played the games.They were good. See you tomorrow at school, Eleonora
hello miss florence, here are the three things I learnt: *Uv index is measured in numbers and colours *snow and water reflect uv rays *if you dont care of them you can get skin cancer alan t.
I really thank you because in our group we had some kind of problems with the Uv Index and what it was. FINALLY we got it! This will really help. Now, I know what we have to do when the Uv Index is in a certain number, the link is great and it has a lot of information! I am blogging one week before because you told us that the week passes very quickly so I started to think and well... that IS really trough, Kiss and see you tomorrow Mili F 6c
Hello Miss Florencee: When I clicked on the link, I found a really cool thermometer who told you if it was hot or not. I also found out that the UV rays could be bad to you, in which way they could affect you. I think the UV Index is great because it warns you about important things! Hope to see you tomorrow or Wednesday, Lot's of love, Ceeli Peterss !
I forgot to say you 3 things I learnt: -seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation. -The scale of UV radiation can be of 2 or less up to 11+. -When the radiation gets up to very high, can burn your skin.
Three things I learnt about the UV index is that it has a scale from 1 to 11, the stronger the UV radiation the stronger the sun and that 1 or 2 percent is definded low, 3 to percent is defined moderate, 6 to 7 is defined high, that 8 to 10 percent is defied very high and finaly that 11 percent is definded extreme.
It is a very good post because it is very clear to learn what the UV index is. Thinks I learnt about the UV index are that: ozone depletion, weather and the seasons cause diffrents amounts of UV radition to reach the earth. Also I learnt that the scale of UV index is sparete between 5: low, moderate, high, very high and extreme. For each level you need diffrents protations. Also the snow and water reflect the sun´s rays. If your shadow is taller than you, you are in the early morning or late afternoon and if the shadow is taller than you is that you are in midday. Using sunglasses protects the lids of yours eyes as well as lens. It is possible to go outside when the UV index is extreme.
Hello Miss Florence, Thank you of giving us this informative page. At first as you know i didn´t knew what the UV index was. Well the three things that i learn about the UV index were: 1)The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. 2)The UV index tells you: Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earthhow much. 3)It predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale that helps you decide what to do to be safe in the sun.

Hello Florence THis are three things I learnt: .If your shadow is longer in late afternoon and early morning it is a low uv .If your shadow is shorter in late afternoon and early morning it is a high uv index .that the uv index is the way scintists kjnow how strong are uv rays
Hello Miss Florence, This are very important facts about the UV index. 1)The ozone layer protects the Earth from the damage of the UV radiation,in some years the UV index will be higher because our ozone layer is being destructed so more radiation can come in. 2)The amount of UV radiation reaching the surface is primarily related to the elevation of the sun in the sky, the amount of ozone in the stratosphere, and the amounts of cloud cover. However, thick cloud can greatly reduce ultraviolet radiation levels and, surprisingly, certain types of thin cloud can magnify the ultraviolet radiation strength 3)The UV Index can range from 0 (at night) to 11 or 12. It might even be higher in the tropics and/or at high elevations under clear skies. The UV Index does not exceed 8 in the UK (8 is rare; 7 may occur on exceptional days, mostly in the two weeks around the summer solstice). However, indices of 9 and 10 are common in the Mediterranean area. 4)The higher the UV Index, the greater the dose rate of skin damaging (and eye damaging) UV radiation. Consequently, the higher the UV Index, the smaller the time it takes before skin or eye damage occurs. Good Bye, See you at school, Josefina G.M6A
I larnt: 1- That the ozone layer protects the earth from the UV rays. 2-If there is a high level of UV index you must take extreme precautions. 3-UV rays are one of the causes of skin cancer so you must use sunscreen to protect your skin.
Hello Miss Florence: Three things I learnt were _A UV Index reading of 11 or higher means extreme risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. _The ozone shields the earth from harmfull UV radiation. _The ozone layer is the one who protect us of this. kisses oli.b
Hello Miss Florence I really enjoyed the post and learnt what before I didin't know. Here are three things that I learnt .The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. .Seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth so the UV tells us how much .It also tells you how much you have to safe from the sun. Kisses Lola M 6B pchica.

Hello Miss Florence, The three things i could learnt where: 1: Ozone layer shields, Earth from haarmful uv ratation. 2: Ozone depletion, wether, another season couse different amounts of uv rotation to the earth. 3:The uv index predicts the next day's uv levels on a 1-11+ scales. xoxoxo MARU.T 6C olivos
I learn t the different levels of UV radiation there are in the world, that not all of the UV rays are reflected by the ozone cap and that UV radiation is extremely harmful for our skin.
Hello miss Florence, These are the things I learnt 1) The ozone layer protects us on Earth from the sun´s UV rays. (That UV means ultraviolet) 2) Depends on the weather and the season that cause different amounts of ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth. 3)The UV index predicts the next day´s UV levels on a scale that helps you decide what you can do to be safe in the sun
I liked the UV index scale!! It has lot of important information that I didn´t know before! See you tomorrow Jessi 6a Olivos
Miss Flor, We have just seen the website... it is very interesting. We learnt A LOT! This is quite a good way of learning, we realy understood. some things are: -The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. -The seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. -UV Index tells you how much radiation there is... malena. cuki... & catalina. ariga...

Hello Miss Florence, What i leart in these was that: 1)The ozone layer shields the earth from harmful UV radiation. 2)When the UV Index is at 11+ it is at extreme 3)And when the UV Index is at 2 or less is low. Thank you for teaching me what it means, Bye Miss Florence,
Hello Miss Florence: This are the three things I learn´t: .When the UV Index is 2 or less means low danger from the sun's UV rays. .When the UV Index is 3 to 5 means moderate risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. .When the UV Index is 6 to 7 means high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure. I learn´t a lot about the UV Index. Bye Clara 6C
hello mis Florence ive learnt that, there is a scale for the UV rays. That the UV rays are rays from the sun that we can not see, and that they can harm us if we dont use special protection.
Hi! Miss Florence: Well I learnd so much thinks well first of all I learnd that a UV is the ozone layer that protects the Earth also I learnd that the UV index tell you how much its predicts the next days Levelss.. and also tells you how to by carefull of the sun.AND I also learnd that 2 or less is LOW 3 TO 5 is MODERATED 6 TO 7 is High 8 TO 9 is very HIGHT so you need to take care of your skin AND THAT 10 IS EXTREME and it if the sun its EXTREME you need to try to by away from the sun form 10 am to 4 pm AND ALSO Seek shade, cover up, wear a hat and sunglasses, and use sunscreen. SEe you on MONDAY OLI pp Olivos
Hello Miss Florence, I learned that: 1)Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth 2)11 of UV index is very dangerous 3)The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation See You tomorrow Santi.G
Hi miss Florence this are the three things I learned: The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. There are 5 different groups low, moderated, high, very high and extreme Juana G 6B pchica
I cliked on the link and it was fantastic, I learned what the UV is all about *The UV Index tells you how much the UV radiation reaches to the Earth. *The UV index predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale. kisses Sofi G. 6B PCHICA
Hi Miss Florence, I think the post about the UV index was very interesting! Before I didn't even knew what the UV index was. I have learnt many interesting things, these are some of them:
•If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation.

Hello Florence: what I found about and learned of the uv index is this: 1)The UV indez is a measure of the level of UV radiation. 2)The values of the index range from zero upward - the higher the it is, greater the potential for the skin and eyes, and the less time it takes for harm to occur. 3)The UV index is an important vehicle to alert people about the need to use sun protection.
The three things I learnt are: 1) If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation. 2) if the uv index is very high is better to put protection or to stay away from the sun expourse 3)the UV index tell you how much its predicts the next days Levelss.
I learn't about the Uv index that: The ozone layer shield the earth from harmful UV radiation. Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. A UV Index reading of 11 or higher means extreme risk of harm in our skin,Unprotected skin can burn in minutes See you Tomorrow
The UV index tells the radiation of the sun that reaches the Earth. The sun can harm our skin so we use a UV index to see the power of the radiation of the sun. So the scale of the UV index is from 1 to 11 separatit like this Low that is a none harming radiation Moderate , that is norm High, that can cause certain damages Extreme, is very dangeurous because you can damage your skin so much that u can get some Skin Cancer.

Hello Miss Florence, I learnt alot first I learnt that you should take precautions in every UV. In low you should wear sunglasses. In moderate you should stay in the shade, In high you need to use protection at least 15. In very high you should use protection specially from 10:00 to 4:00 and obviously wear sunglasses to protect your eyes. In extreme you should wear a protection every 2 hours try not to be outside or in the sun at midday and wear sun glasses. Bye Bye Benja L 6b olivos
Hello Miss Florence I entered the link and saw the webpage. I learnt the numbers related to the words, for example 2=low. I knew that uv rays damaged our skin but I did not know that the scale was from 2 to 11+, I thought it was infinit. Know I know that it is important to check the uv index everyday, specially summer and you can not forget if you have sensitive skin, like me a sometimes. thanks for sharing this info...
hello miss florence, before i didnt really know what UV index really was but now as i have watched these link im more into the subject. i was really surprised by how the rays of the sun can hurt your skin. jero d.c 6b
Hello Mis Florence, the things that i learned were that the ozone layer protects the Earth from UV radiation, and protects us of, corse, the weather and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the earth and i`v anderstood the importance of protecting yourself of the sun o you can get serious desies. grate post!!! by
I learnt that the ozone layer protects the earth, but sometimes its better to stay at your house rather than playing outside because if not you can be burn very easely. Another thing that i learnt is that when tere is 6 or more of UV rays, put a lot of sunscreem or if not your skin will get red in minutes. One more thing that I learnt was that that ( maiby I was more impressed than i leant) was that how much the rays of the sun can hurt you even if the UV index is low.
Miss Florence, This webpage helped me understand what the uv was and more about it.. Some thing I learnt were: -That the ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation. -Thatweather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth. - When the uv is extreme you have to: Take all precautions. Try to avoid sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 pm Look for shade, cover up, wear a hat and sunglasses, and use sunscreen. sorry.. MALE.C
Hello miss Florence it was great that post you made because i didn't knew what was and that can predict the UV of the next day BY Florence see on monday Teo Y
hi miss florence: I learnt that the ozone layer shields the earth from harmful UV radiation. The season causes different amount of UV radiation to reach to Earth . Wear sunglasses on bright days. In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength. If you burn easily, cover up and use sunscreen. I learnt a lot and it is a very good and usefull information!!!
mhi miss florence: The seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation Also I learned that the ozone depilation is because of the uv radiation. A UV Index reading of 8 to 10 means very high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
Hello miss Florence 1)The UVI is a measure of the level of UV radiation. 2)The values of the index range from zero upward - the higher the UVI, the greater the potential for damage to the skin and eye, and the less time it takes for harm to occur. 3)The UVI is an important vehicle to alert people about the need to use sun protection. by: Luna E.
I learnt that 1)weather and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation 2)11 is the extreme number of a U V index 3)It predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale that helps you decide what to do to be safe in the sun Bye Martin N Punta Chica

Hello Miss Florence: This post was very interesting, the three things I learnt were: 1)In winter the reflection of the snow nearly doubles UV strength. 2)2 or less=low it is the one in which you are most proteced of all. 3)11+ is very high and it is the one that has more dangeour from the sun. I hope I answered correctly, xoxox Martu.P
i clicked on the link and learned that the seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation that the UV Index tells us how much UV reaches the earth and it predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale.
HI Miss Florence, Iclicked on the link and read what the Uv is and that the ozone layers and the UV i am goint to learn even more about it it is very interesting.

Hello miss Florence,
Very interesting the UV index. Imagine that one day in Argentina there would be 11+. I would never be out of my house, or if I go out, with protection.
There is another thing you said on class to bring for tomorrow, it was the UV in here today, but I dont know where to find it.
Thanks,

Hi florence:
I really enjoyed this post, my mother too as she always tells me to put sunscream on.
I learned 3 things:
•If your shadow is taller than your UV exposure is likely to be low.
•If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation.
.Snow and water can reflect the sun's rays. In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength.

Hello Florence,
at first I didn't knew what a UV was but now thanks to you and the link you post, thhe thermometer helped me to know if it extremly high the sun shine, I shouldn't be at the sun from 10:00am to 4:00pm.
It is great but the important thing is that you informed me when to be at the sun and when not.
Thankyou, keep posting!

Hello Miss Florence,
it was very interesting the video. I learned that the ozone depilation is becuase of the UV radiation, also that the UV index tells you how much UV radiation reaches the earth and that when is high the UV index you have to aboid the sun exposure, you have to aboid it at 10 am until 4 pm. I learned a lot of things, and this information I think it help us a lot because if we dont know what is the UV index is in bain to get the weather.
See you tomorrow!!

Hello Miss Flrence, it was very interesting the article. I learned that:
1- if the uv index is very high is better to put protection or to stay away from the sun expourse.(from 10 am until 4 pm)
2 Also I learned that the ozone depilation is because of the uv radiation.
3 and that the uv index tells you the amount of uv radiation that reaches the earth.

Hi miss florence,
I found that the UV index has drifent levels:
-2 or less: means low danger from the suns UV rays for the avarage person.
-3;4;5: Means a moderate risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
-7;6> Means high risk of harm of unnprotected sun exposure.
-8;9;10: Means very high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
-11+...:means extreme risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.

hi miss Florence:
I found very interesting this page, I learnt lots of things I didnt know, such as that when your shadow is taller than you the uv index is not hitting you a lot, but if your shadow is smaller than you the UV index is giving you very strong. Another thing I learnt was how we had to take care of our body, depending on the different tipes of tempreture, for example we have to use lots of sun protector in all of the tempretures.Also I learnt that the water and the snow can reflect the sun, taht can also affect your body. Very intresting page!!!!.

Hello Miss Florence,
I think the uv index is very important and dangerous because it affects our skin and it can give us cancer of skin so we have to put protection

Hello Miss Florence,
i saw the link of the UV Index it is very intersting and if we still contaminatiting the ultra violet rays will traspass the ozone layer. We could have lots sorts of injuries, and there is diffretent numbers that are for saying how much can your skin irritate and depending for diffrenttipes of skin.
bye,

Hello Florence,
I learn that:
1 The UV index tells you much dangerous is the sun at that day
2 That from 10am to 4pm we have to have extra sunscreen
3 That we have to be careful of the sun when we play sports outdoors.
Thaks for the link,
santi a
Im glad you showed us this. That the atmosphere protectes us from the UV, if there were no atmosphere it would be very hot every day and we would die. Just like in the global wrming we got the atmosphere hole over us. If we keep un contaminating the earth we will no longer have the atmopshere and we would die thanks to the UV.

Hi miss Florence , I learned :
1) The ozone layer protects the Earth from UV radiation.
2)The season causes different amount of UV radiation to reach to Earth .
3) The Uv index shows us how much of UV radiation there is.
The UV Index Scale was great , it taught me when to protect me from the sun and each number what represents and if I have to have precaution.
Thank You
Bye, Great post it was super
Victoria I 6a
Hello Miss Florence, the site is great, because with a little of information, we can know a lot, without beign obligated to do so. I am going to tell you three of the many things I learnt from this site of U.V index are:
That the U.V index can stain our skin badly. That the ozone, protect us from the U.V index, because if we didn´t have the ozone, we would die from being burnt! (the ozone doesn´t let pass a lot of U.V index to the earth, that´s why we don´t die burt). And that the U.V index changes a lot when the weather changes a lot or if the seasons also change.
the blog is great...keep on posting
ps: I like working with U.V index and that this will help us a lot with the weather we have to find!

Hello Florence:
I learnt a lot of things in this post:
The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
This really impressed me:
An easy way to tell how much UV exposure you are getting is to look for your shadow:
• If your shadow is taller than you are (in the early morning and late afternoon), your UV exposure is likely to be low.
• If your shadow is shorter than you are (around midday), you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation.
Kisses Agus M. 6A pchica
Hello Miss Florence I learned
That the sun rays could afect your skin very badly, The UV Index tells us how much UV radiation reaches the Earth and If your shadow is taller than your UV exposure is likely to be low.

Hellow Mis.Florense how are you im fine here i send you the things iv learned
ive learned that
.the ozon layer protects us from the uv index
.it can harm you very badly if you dont have the corect protectio
.swimmers and skyers have to use special protection because snow and water reflect sun rays and make it 2 times stronger
.if tere is more than 11 it is better to stay indoors reading a book than risking your skinto dangerous ryes
bye matthew
Hi Miss Florence In this link y have learnt that Uv index is of vital importance, because it has to do with our planet. If the rays are taller than our shadow your UV index is low.
If it shorter your in high risk of UV index. The UV index thermometer is very good. If its high you should use sunglasses and protection. Lucas G 6A Pchica
Hi miss Florence:
I entered to the link and i found out:
That the UV index is harmful
In the scale 11 is the extreme weather and menas extreme risk of harm.
It is possible to go outside when the UV Index is 11 or higher but you have to make sure that you look for shade, wear a hat, cover up and use sun block.
This information was really interesting and I hope I learn more about this.
Sofia Friser F. 6a pchica
Hi Miss Florence.
A UV Index reading of 2 or less means low danger from the sun's UV rays for the average person:
Wear sunglasses on bright days. In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength.
If you burn easily, cover up and use sunscreen.Snow and water can reflect the sun's rays. Skiers and swimmers should take special care. Wear sunglasses or goggles, and apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. Remember to protect areas that could be exposed to UV rays by the sun's reflection, including under the chin and nose.

Hi Florence
i learnt that there were many levels of uv radiation, that depending on what level the uv was we had to take different precautions, and we have to protect ourselves in the smow or swimming because it reflects more the sun. Also that we always have to wear a hat and sunscreen while we are in the sun and that we have to look for shade.

1. I learned that the UV index is very dangerous if you don't put sun-cream or sun-glasses.
2. That the most level of UV index is more dangerous and can harm your skin a lot.
3. In some hours you don't have to be in the sun and if you are in the sun, you have to protect your skin a lot because if not, it can burn in minutes.

I really think that this site was very useful to learn a lot about the uv index because when we had to do look for the weather we didn't know what it was....
The three things I learnt are:
1: The ozone layer protects the earth from the UV index.
2: You should protect yourself if the UV index is more than 4-5-6
3: The different seasons and the weather make the UV index change and be higher.
See you
Domi 6c olivos
It is really interesting miss Florence!!!
I learnt that:
If your shadow is taller than you are in midday, your exposion to danger caused by UV rays is not high. I also learnt that the UV index helps you predict how you will have to protect yourself from the sun the next day. And finally, I read that the UV index is represented in a scale from 1 to 11. I know that 11 is extreme danger, that 8,9 and 10 is very high, that 7 is high, lower is moderate, and 2 or less is low.
See you on Monday:

Hello Miss Florence,
I've seen the page from the link, and I have learnt 3 following things:
1. The ozone shields the earth from harmfull UV radiation.
2. UV radiation can be extremely dangerous in high levels.
3. If UV index is high, you would have to take a hell of a precaution.
I hope this has answered your questions or doupts!

Hello miss Florence I entered to the site it was great and I found this information:
Uv radiation has a scale from 1 low to 11 high.
The ozone layer is the one who protect us of this./like a shield)
Ozone depletion, and weather variations, cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth
Conclusion: We have to take care of the ozone layer because uv rays affect you.

Julian.f
Hello Miss Florence
I learned that even at the mountains where the weather is very cold the sun burns. We need to take care when the shadow is shorter than you at midday. It means that the uv radiation is high. If your shadow is bigger than you it means that you may stay for some time before you get burnt.
Hi miss Florence,
I learnt that the ozone layer protects the Earth from harmful UV radiation. Another thing that I learnt is that the ozone layer (that now is polluted)forms a thin shield high up in the sky. It protects us from the sun's uv rays.And one thing I didn´t now was that too much UV can cause bad health like skin cancer and eye damage. I also played the games.They were good.
See you tomorrow at school,

I really thank you because in our group we had some kind of problems with the Uv Index and what it was. FINALLY we got it! This will really help. Now, I know what we have to do when the Uv Index is in a certain number, the link is great and it has a lot of information!
I am blogging one week before because you told us that the week passes very quickly so I started to think and well... that IS really trough,
Kiss and see you tomorrow

Hello Miss Florencee:
When I clicked on the link, I found a really cool thermometer who told you if it was hot or not. I also found out that the UV rays could be bad to you, in which way they could affect you. I think the UV Index is great because it warns you about important things!
Hope to see you tomorrow or Wednesday,

Hello Miss Florence,
I forgot to say you 3 things I learnt:
-seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation.
-The scale of UV radiation can be of 2 or less up to 11+.
-When the radiation gets up to very high, can burn your skin.

Miss Florance,
Three things I learnt about the UV index is that it has a scale from 1 to 11, the stronger the UV radiation the stronger the sun and that 1 or 2 percent is definded low, 3 to percent is defined moderate, 6 to 7 is defined high, that 8 to 10 percent is defied very high and finaly that 11 percent is definded extreme.
Hello Miss Florence:
It is a very good post because it is very clear to learn what the UV index is. Thinks I learnt about the UV index are that: ozone depletion, weather and the seasons cause diffrents amounts of UV radition to reach the earth. Also I learnt that the scale of UV index is sparete between 5: low, moderate, high, very high and extreme. For each level you need diffrents protations. Also the snow and water reflect the sun´s rays. If your shadow is taller than you, you are in the early morning or late afternoon and if the shadow is taller than you is that you are in midday. Using sunglasses protects the lids of yours eyes as well as lens. It is possible to go outside when the UV index is extreme.

.If your shadow is shorter in late afternoon and early morning it is a high uv index
.that the uv index is the way scintists kjnow how strong are uv rays
Hope you likeb them
Maria P.chica 6b
Hello Miss Florence,
This are very important facts about the UV index.
1)The ozone layer protects the Earth from the damage of the UV radiation,in some years the UV index will be higher because our ozone layer is being destructed so more radiation can come in.
2)The amount of UV radiation reaching the surface is primarily related to the elevation of the sun in the sky, the amount of ozone in the stratosphere, and the amounts of cloud cover. However, thick cloud can greatly reduce ultraviolet radiation levels and, surprisingly, certain types of thin cloud can magnify the ultraviolet radiation strength
3)The UV Index can range from 0 (at night) to 11 or 12. It might even be higher in the tropics and/or at high elevations under clear skies. The UV Index does not exceed 8 in the UK (8 is rare; 7 may occur on exceptional days, mostly in the two weeks around the summer solstice). However, indices of 9 and 10 are common in the Mediterranean area.
4)The higher the UV Index, the greater the dose rate of skin damaging (and eye damaging) UV radiation. Consequently, the higher the UV Index, the smaller the time it takes before skin or eye damage occurs.
Good Bye,
See you at school,

hello miss florence
I larnt: 1- That the ozone layer protects the earth from the UV rays.
2-If there is a high level of UV index you must take extreme precautions.
3-UV rays are one of the causes of skin cancer so you must use sunscreen to protect your skin.

Hello Miss Florence:
Three things I learnt were
_A UV Index reading of 11 or higher means extreme risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
_The ozone shields the earth from harmfull UV radiation.
_The ozone layer is the one who protect us of this.

Hello Miss Florence I really enjoyed the post and learnt what before I didin't know. Here are three things that I learnt
.The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
.Seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth so the UV tells us how much
.It also tells you how much you have to safe from the sun.
Kisses Lola M 6B pchica.
hello miss florence
I read the link you gave us and it has a lot of information three things that I learnt are:
-Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth.
-A UV Index reading of 11 or higher means extreme risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
-Snow and water can reflect the sun's rays. Skiers and swimmers should take special care. Wear sunglasses or goggles, and apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15. Remember to protect areas that could be exposed to UV rays by the sun's reflection, including under the chin and nose.
See you tomorow

Hello Miss Florence,
The three things i could learnt where:
1: Ozone layer shields, Earth from haarmful uv ratation.
2: Ozone depletion, wether, another season couse different amounts of uv rotation to the earth.
3:The uv index predicts the next day's uv levels on a 1-11+ scales.

I learn t the different levels of UV radiation there are in the world, that not all of the UV rays are reflected by the ozone cap and that UV radiation is extremely harmful for our skin.

Hello miss Florence,
These are the things I learnt
1) The ozone layer protects us on Earth from the sun´s UV rays. (That UV means ultraviolet)
2) Depends on the weather and the season that cause different amounts of ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth.
3)The UV index predicts the next day´s UV levels on a scale that helps you decide what you can do to be safe in the sun
I liked the UV index scale!! It has lot of important information that I didn´t know before!
See you tomorrow

Miss Flor,
We have just seen the website... it is very interesting. We learnt A LOT!
This is quite a good way of learning, we realy understood. some things are:
-The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
-The seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth.
-UV Index tells you how much radiation there is...

I also learned about the thermometer that it shows you the things you have to do. I also read the UV Index page.
Hello Miss Florence,
What i leart in these was that:
1)The ozone layer shields the earth from harmful UV radiation.
2)When the UV Index is at 11+ it is at extreme
3)And when the UV Index is at 2 or less is low.
Thank you for teaching me what it means,
Bye Miss Florence,
Agustina F.6C Olivos
Hello Miss Florence:
This are the three things I learn´t:
.When the UV Index is 2 or less means low danger from the sun's UV rays.
.When the UV Index is 3 to 5 means moderate risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
.When the UV Index is 6 to 7 means high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.
I learn´t a lot about the UV Index.

hello mis Florence
ive learnt that, there is a scale for the UV rays. That the UV rays are rays from the sun that we can not see, and that they can harm us if we dont use special protection.
Tadeo Casiraghi
Hi! Miss Florence:
Well I learnd so much thinks well first of all I learnd that a UV is the ozone layer that protects the Earth also I learnd that the UV index tell you how much its predicts the next days Levelss..
and also tells you how to by carefull of the sun.AND I also learnd that
2 or less is LOW
3 TO 5 is MODERATED
6 TO 7 is High
8 TO 9 is very HIGHT so you need to take care of your skin AND THAT 10 IS EXTREME and it if the sun its EXTREME you need to try to by away from the sun form 10 am to 4 pm AND ALSO Seek shade, cover up, wear a hat and sunglasses, and use sunscreen.
SEe you on MONDAY

i clikes in the thermometer and the link it is graet
Hello Miss Florence,
I learned that:
1)Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth
2)11 of UV index is very dangerous
3)The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation
See You tomorrow

i didnt new that the ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
Hi miss Florence this are the three things I learned:
The ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth.
There are 5 different groups low, moderated, high, very high and extreme

Hi miss florence...
I cliked on the link and it was fantastic, I learned what the UV is all about
*The UV Index tells you how much the UV radiation reaches to the Earth.
*The UV index predicts the next day's UV levels on a 1-11+ scale.

Hi Miss Florence,
I think the post about the UV index was very interesting! Before I didn't even knew what the UV index was.
I have learnt many interesting things, these are some of them:
•If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation.

Hello Florence:
what I found about and learned of the uv index is this:
1)The UV indez is a measure of the level of UV radiation.
2)The values of the index range from zero upward - the higher the it is, greater the potential for the skin and eyes, and the less time it takes for harm to occur.
3)The UV index is an important vehicle to alert people about the need to use sun protection.

Hello Miss Florence:
The three things I learnt are:
1) If your shadow is shorter than you are you are being exposed to high levels of UV radiation.
2) if the uv index is very high is better to put protection or to stay away from the sun expourse
3)the UV index tell you how much its predicts the next days Levelss.

Hello Miss Florence
I learn't about the Uv index that:
The ozone layer shield the earth from harmful UV radiation.
Ozone depletion, weather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth.
A UV Index reading of 11 or higher means extreme risk of harm in our skin,Unprotected skin can burn in minutes
See you Tomorrow
The COmment that it send it to you is mine
SORRY

The UV index tells the radiation of the sun that reaches the Earth.
The sun can harm our skin so we use a UV index to see the power of the radiation of the sun. So the scale of the UV index is from 1 to 11 separatit like this
Low that is a none harming radiation
Moderate , that is norm
High, that can cause certain damages
Extreme, is very dangeurous because you can damage your skin so much that u can get some Skin Cancer.

Hello Miss Florence,
I learnt alot first I learnt that you should take precautions in every UV. In low you should wear sunglasses. In moderate you should stay in the shade, In high you need to use protection at least 15. In very high you should use protection specially from 10:00 to 4:00 and obviously wear sunglasses to protect your eyes. In extreme you should wear a protection every 2 hours try not to be outside or in the sun at midday and wear sun glasses. Bye Bye

Hello Miss Florence
I entered the link and saw the webpage. I learnt the numbers related to the words, for example 2=low. I knew that uv rays damaged our skin but I did not know that the scale was from 2 to 11+, I thought it was infinit. Know I know that it is important to check the uv index everyday, specially summer and you can not forget if you have sensitive skin, like me a sometimes.
thanks for sharing this info...

hello miss florence,
before i didnt really know what UV index really was but now as i have watched these link im more into the subject. i was really surprised by how the rays of the sun can hurt your skin.

Hello Mis Florence, the things that i learned were that the ozone layer protects the Earth from UV radiation, and protects us of, corse, the weather and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the earth and i`v anderstood the importance of protecting yourself of the sun o you can get serious desies.
grate post!!!

hi miss Florence:
I learnt that the ozone layer protects the earth, but sometimes its better to stay at your house rather than playing outside because if not you can be burn very easely. Another thing that i learnt is that when tere is 6 or more of UV rays, put a lot of sunscreem or if not your skin will get red in minutes.
One more thing that I learnt was that that ( maiby I was more impressed than i leant) was that how much the rays of the sun can hurt you even if the UV index is low.
Miss Florence,
This webpage helped me understand what the uv was and more about it.. Some thing I learnt were:
-That the ozone layer shields the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
-Thatweather, and the seasons cause different amounts of UV radiation to reach the Earth.
- When the uv is extreme you have to:
Take all precautions.
Try to avoid sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 pm
Look for shade, cover up, wear a hat and sunglasses, and use sunscreen.
sorry.. MALE.C
Hello miss Florence it was great that post you made because i didn't knew what was and that can predict the UV of the next day
BY Florence see on monday

hi miss florence:
I learnt that the ozone layer shields the earth from harmful UV radiation.
The season causes different amount of UV radiation to reach to Earth .
Wear sunglasses on bright days. In winter, reflection off snow can nearly double UV strength.
If you burn easily, cover up and use sunscreen.
I learnt a lot and it is a very good and usefull information!!!

mhi miss florence:
The seasons and the Ozone depletion cause different amounts of UV radiation
Also I learned that the ozone depilation is because of the uv radiation.
A UV Index reading of 8 to 10 means very high risk of harm from unprotected sun exposure.

Hello Miss Florence:
This post was very interesting, the three things I learnt were:
1)In winter the reflection of the snow nearly doubles UV strength.
2)2 or less=low it is the one in which you are most proteced of all.
3)11+ is very high and it is the one that has more dangeour from the sun.
I hope I answered correctly,
