Grade 8s are learning about natural hazards-specifically earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanos. To understand what causes these, we needed to start with the Earth’s core…

We made some connections between apples and the earth!

Next, students took in the role of teachers and communicated information to their classmates about the different interactions of the Earth’s plates. We are working on our note-taking skills.

This is complex information! Students are building on their explanations and note-taking next week. They are looking forward to the quiz we will be having too!
