Earthquake Assessment

Description

This learning resource focuses on understanding earthquakes, explaining their causes, effects, and safety measures. Students will learn that earthquakes occur due to the movement of giant rock pieces beneath the surface of the Earth. The shaking of the ground can crack roads, cause buildings to break, and make objects fall. Key safety actions during an earthquake include ‘Drop, Cover, and Hold On’, to protect oneself from potential dangers. The resource includes activities for students to demonstrate their understanding of earthquake effects and outline appropriate safety plans.
