Partner 1 – how could you predict and earthquake? Partner 2 – how could you predict a volcano? Partner 3 – how could you prevent (limit) the effects of an earthquake? Partner 4 – how could you prevent (limit) the effects of a volcano?

Prediction and Prevention of the effects of volcanoes and earthquakes To know the range of specialist details To work in partnership to research and understand more information.

1) To know the basics of predicting and preventing (Grade C) 2) To be able to develop the basics into those appropriate for volcano / earthquake and to categorise preventions into Education / Building Design / Defence. (Grade B) 3) To be able to increase depth with a range of specific examples (Grade A-A*)

To know the basics of predicting and preventing (Grade C) Task 1: what changes might there be before a volcano / earthquake? What could we monitor? How could the changes be identified or recorded? Task 2: if we have no option but to live in a tectonic zone how could we limit the damage from an earthquake at work or home and how could we defend ourselves from a volcanic eruption?

To be able to develop the basics into those appropriate for volcano / earthquake and to categorise preventions into Education / Building Design / Defence. (Grade B) Despite sophisticated monitoring equipment it remains very difficult to pinpoint exactly when a volcanic eruption or an earthquake will occur. Education focusses around: 1) design the rules for a monthly Earthquake Drill in a Japanese School. 2) Planning ahead: what could we check for in the home? What could we identify? What would be our communication plan? 3) what things could we teach to have in your Disaster Kit? DICES Building Design: How could we modify a building in order to prevent the effects of 1) shockwaves through the ground 2) tall buildings toppling over 3) glass windows breaking 4) tall buildings swaying. Defences: How could we disrupt a lava flow? How could we deflect a lava flow? How could we stop a lava flow?

To be able to develop the basics into those appropriate for volcano / earthquake and to categorise preventions into Education / Building Design / Defence. (Grade B) There are three main ways in which to prevent (limit) the effects of a volcano or earthquake. As ______ nears the surface of a volcano its pressure __________ and _____ escapes. _______ dioxide concentration can give an indication of an eruption. ______ from rising magma deforms the volcano and the ground changes _______. GPS satellites and tiltmeters track the changes. Why could a seismometers be useful for predicting a volcano or an earthquake?

To be able to increase depth with a range of specific examples(Grade A-A*) For each different type of prediction and prevention you should research on the web and use page to link them to a range of specific examples. Also annotate the diagram on page 121.

Time for two exam questions followed by peer marking.
