This product includes vocabulary, notes, and review for students that are learning about earthquakes.
Vocabulary words that are emphasized in this packet include: earthquakes, temblors, Earth's crust, normal fault, reverse fault, strike-slip fault, layers of earth, seismographs, and Richter magnitude and earthquake effects.
This product on earthquakes covers how Earth's surface changes, the structure of the Earth and how earthquakes happen due to changes/movements in the crust, three different faults - normal, reverse, and strike-slip faults, how the Earth's crust moves, measuring earthquakes with seismographs, how earthquakes strengths are reported, the Richter magnitude scale that shows the effects of earthquakes, a chart showing the strongest earthquakes of the 20th and 21st century and questions are asked based on data from those charts, and students will research one of the earthquakes and locate information about it in the library or on the computer. Throughout the packet, comprehension questions are asked based on the notes to ensure student comprehension and a few multiple choice questions are also asked in this product that relate with earthquakes.
