Natural Disasters

Last week was our last week of Distance learning. For inquiry/reading our activity was to create a DLO explaining what natural disaster you chose, and what causes that natural disaster. Also we write down an example of an earthquake that has happened in New Zealand. Also apart of the activity was to create a clear poster for people who might not have experienced an earthquake before. 

The natural disaster that I chose was an earthquake. Did you know that earthquakes are caused when a rock from underground breaks, and the release of energy causes waves that shake the ground? The example I used for this DLO was the earthquake that happened in 2011, Christchurch. I enjoyed creating this DLO as I was able to do research and find out about earthquakes.
