<p>This lesson is designed for KS2 children. It can be taught as a stand alone lesson but is also available as part of two wider units, both of which are available on TES:</p> <p>-<strong><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/earthquakes-ks2-unit-12199507">Earthquakes</a></strong><br /> -<strong><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/volcanoes-and-earthquakes-ks2-12206847">Volcanoes &amp; Earthquakes</a></strong></p> <p>First the presentation looks at how the Earth’s crust is split into tectonic plates. It then examines the causes of earthquakes, how they occur at the fault lines between tectonic plates and what the hypocentre and epicentre of an earthquake are.</p> <p>There are three different activities to choose from which can be done in Geography and/or Literacy lessons. These include:</p> <p><strong>Quiz Activity</strong><br /> Students watch a video clip about earthquakes and answer comprehension questions about it. This is differentiated two ways.</p> <p><strong>Cloze Procedure Activity</strong><br /> Students fill in the blanks in an explanation text about earthquakes. This is differentiated two ways.</p> <p><strong>Writing Activity</strong><br /> Student write an explanation text about earthquakes. This is differentiated three ways and comes with vocabulary and sentence starter prompts.</p> <p>If you like this resource, we would appreciate a review!

<p>Geography: How do Humans Live with Earthquakes? (Edexcel B, Tectonics, Hazardous)</p> <p>This Unit follows the Edexcel B syllabus but has been design to be part of a three year GCSE course. As a result this could be delivered at both KS3 and KS4.</p> <p>This unit is created in line with my personal passion for tectonic hazards in the developing world. This Unit is my favorite to deliver and has been streamlined over the last two years.</p> <p>This SoW work has been differentiated, with with both support and challenge throughout. Retrieval Practice and Duel Coding Theory are incorporated and as well as regular links to other parts of the syllabus, this is in line to my recent academic readings.

<p>This is a KS3 on earthquakes however, it can adapted for a low ability GCSE group. Key facts about the lesson are:</p> <p>1. The content covered by the lesson are; Plate boundaries that cause earthquakes, the stages of earthquake, responding to an earthquake disaster and identifying the focus/epicentre of an earthquake.</p> <p>2. Learning resources used in the lesson are; pictures, diagrams, video clips, writing task and peer assessment.</p> <p>3. Differentiation used in the lesson are: challenge tasks, diagrams (for those who find drawing these difficult).</p> <p>The lesson is planned in detail and all the resources for teaching the lesson are included in the ppt; starter, learning activities with resources, clear outline of learning tasks and a plenary. Just download and teach!</p>

<p>A trio of activity sheets to be used after the introduction of earthquakes alongside a visual of tectonic plates and earthquake ‘hotspots’ to allow children to investigate for themselves patterns in where earthquakes happen and how earthquakes are measured.</p> <p>Great fun to play an earthquake siren whilst they are working so they can practice the earthquake drill!</p>

<p>AQA GCSE Geography lesson for Unit 1 A. Comparing the responses of the Chile 2010 and Nepal 2015 earthquakes. In this lesson we start with a retrieval practice grid which you can populate with your own questions. We then look at the difference between immediate and long-term responses. The pupils complete a photo interpretation task around the searching of buildings before completing a worksheet on the responses to the two earthquakes and answer some questions on what they have found. We then use the worksheets to answer a GCSE-style 9 mark question. using a structure guidance sheet together with mark scheme for content and SPAG.</p> <p>In a nutshell lesson includes:</p> <p>Retrieval practice starter<br /> Photo interpretation task<br /> Responses worksheet with questions<br /> GCSE 9 mark question with guidance and mark scheme</p> <p>Hope this saves you valuable planning time.</p> <p><a href="https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer">https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer</a></p>

Year 7 Science lesson, could be adapted to use with other year groups<br /> <br /> Students work in groups, each group is researching a different type of plate boundary (conservative, constructive, destructive, collision). They then move around the room and teach other groups about what they have learnt. Focus if the Nepal Earthquake, and students use their learning from the lesson to explain what plate boundary there is in Nepal and why the Earthquake occurred.

<p>A three/four lesson enquiry on earthquakes that looks to answer two questions, as well as providing the opportunity to work through two case studies of earthquakes.</p> <p>The information and activities are provided within one document that can be printed as a booklet to then work through. This includes key vocabulary, key information and diagrams alongside activities that get pupils to think about and use their learning in different ways, as well as time to answer the two main questions.</p> <p>Also included is a PowerPoint presentation that can be used alongside the information sheets. This includes everything that can be found in the information sheets, alongside extra written text and instructions within the notes sections.</p> <p>Both documents have been uploaded as PowerPoints so they can be easily adapted, with these lessons easily adaptable across a range of ages.</p>

<p>Earthquakes are one of the most destructive natural disasters in the world.</p> <p>The first sheet emphasizes the link between Earthquakes, Tsunami and Volcanoes.<br /> The second sheet require the pupil to draw pictures to show slight destruction to ruins.<br /> The third sheet gives suggestions for putting the story together, the forth sheet is a vocabulary sheet. <em>Home at last</em> is my attempt at a story. There is also a poetry aid. Finally there is a simple crossword and word search - answers supplied.</p> <p>Added general sheet on Rescue.</p>
