The National Geographic Earthquake Resource Library is a helpful site for teachers and students to learn about earthquakes. It explains what causes earthquakes, how tectonic plates move, and the effects of earthquakes on the land and people. The site has maps, videos, and activities to make learning fun and engaging. It's designed for grades five and up and covers science and geography. Teachers can also find tips on earthquake safety to use in the classroom. It's recommended to check if YouTube is accessible on school networks if you are planning to use these resources in the classroom.
tag(s): earthquakes (45), natural disasters (17), plate tectonics (22)
In the Classroom
Have students use the National Geographic MapMaker tool to plot recent earthquake data. They can identify patterns in earthquake locations and explore how they relate to tectonic plate boundaries. Set up a simple hands-on activity where students build structures using blocks or Jenga pieces. Use a shake table (or improvise one) to simulate an earthquake and observe the impact on their designs. Use the site's interactive diagrams to examine major fault lines like the San Andreas Fault. Pair this with research on historical earthquakes, such as the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, to analyze causes and effects. Students can work in groups to create a safety guide for their school or home, including what to do before, during, and after an earthquake. They can use a tool like Book Creator, reviewed here or ePubEditor, reviewed here.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.
