Earthquake Day

Earthquake Day

On Friday, the children spent the day researching and finding out more about earthquakes. They took part in a variety of activities including measuring movement with seismometer, recreating the layers of the earth, using atlases to find out about earthquake zones, hotspots and tectonic plates and finally constructing earthquake proof structures from pasta and marshmallows.

They loved testing these in our classroom earthquake zone - watch below to find out how successful they were!
