Students will develop a better understanding of why and where five types of natural disasters (tornadoes, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis) tend to occur.

I'm going into my tenth year of homeschooling my own children. I've taught several middle school science classes, both at a large homeschool co-op and here on Outschool (e.g., The Science of Flight). I've been studying natural disasters independently for over 20 years, and have incorporated this topic into science classes I've taught in the past.
