Layers of the earth 2
The Earth is divided into four main layers: the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. The crust makes up only 1% of the Earth's volume and is broken into tectonic plates. The mantle, the largest layer, lies below the crust and is divided into upper and lower sections. The outer core is liquid and made of iron, while the inner core is solid due to extreme heat and pressure at the Earth's center.

Dear Governors,
I am writing to you today on behalf of the student council to propose a change to the school uniform policy for the summer months.
As you may be aware, many students have been voicing their discomfort with having to wear ties during the hotter summer weather. With temperatures rising, ties can feel constricting and cause students to feel warm and distracted during lessons.
