3 horas 45 minutos horas presencialesExperiencia de clase
This multi-day class is a great introduction to earth sciences and covers several key geographical concepts in relation to plate tectonics and how earthquakes are formed. Each class is supported by on-screen resources, printable worksheets and the opportunity to complete hands-on activities, including making a 3D modelling dough model of the earth and its layers. Students are given the opportunity to investigate: • The structure of the Earth • How and why earthquakes happen • How to stay safe during an earthquake The following topics will be covered each week, building a good understanding of the key aspects of the physical geography of earthquakes and their impact on the environment and individuals. Week 1: Beneath our feet Take a journey through the layers of the Earth! ⭐Hands-on activity - making a modelling clay representation of the layers of the Earth Week 2: Moving Earth! Exploring Plate Tectonics and the Ring of Fire! ⭐Hands-on activity – How do tectonic plates move? Week 3: Shaking Earth! What are earthquakes and where and why do they happen? ⭐Hands-on Activity: Making Observations – Using the Mercalli Scale Week 4: Earthquake Proof! Construction in earthquake zones ⭐Hands-on activity: Design an Earthquake Proof Building Week 5: Evacuate! How to prepare for an earthquake ⭐Hands on activity: Design a Survival Evacuation Kit All worksheets needed to complete each session will be posted in the classroom the day before class. It is not essential that students use these, but they are designed to increase student participation and engagement in the sessions.

Orientación para padres
For safety, parents are advised to support students when completing the hands on activities, particularly when the use of scissors is involved.
This lesson uses private link, onscreen clickable resources (content created by the teacher) via the Genial.ly web app (https://genial.ly/). Learners and parents do not require a log in to access the resource. The Privacy policy for the web app can be viewed at https://genial.ly/privacy/
This class also uses teacher resources via NearPod (https://nearpod.com). Again, learners and parents do not require a log-in to access the resources. The Privacy policy for the web app can be viewed at https://nearpod.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/7889123955220
Lista de útiles escolares
Session 1: Modelling dough (red, yellow, orange, pink, brown, green and blue) - enough to make approximately 3-4” ball in layers.
Session 2: Sheet (A4 size) of thin card.
* Other sessions: Colored pencils/felt pens, ruler, scissors, eraser and pen
* Access to a printer - for weekly handouts and supporting resources
