History and Math Web quest Gary Paxton, Kristen Rago, Christine Massaro

Introduction The purpose of this web quest is for students to combine their skills in math and history. In completing the web quest, the students will learn about the effects of natural disasters over the history of the world, thus showing them the impact and relevance of natural disasters then and now.

What students will research Each student will research 2 natural disasters in world history, one from the past and one from the modern era. They will summarize the events, and compare their effects’ on populations. Students can choose from a variety of natural disasters, including but not limited to this list: Black Death, Irish Potato Famine, Hurricane Katrina, South Asian Tsunami (2004), Great 1906 San Francisco Earthquake

South Asian Tsunami The 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, known by the scientific community as the great Sumatra-Andaman earthquake was an undersea earthquake that occurred December 26, 2004, with an epicenter off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. earthquake December epicenter Sumatra Indonesia The earthquake triggered a series of devastating tsunamis along the coasts of most landmasses bordering the Indian Ocean, killing large numbers of people and inundating coastal communities across South and Southeast Asia, including parts of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, and Thailand. tsunamis Indian Ocean South Southeast Asia Indonesia Sri Lanka India Thailand Although initial estimates had put the worldwide death toll at over 275,000 with thousands of others missing, more recent analysis compiled by the United Nations lists a total of 229,866 people lost, including 186,983 dead and 42,883 missing. United Nations

Bubonic Plague (Black Death) CAUSE In the early 1330s an outbreak of deadly bubonic plague occurred in China. Once people are infected, they infect others very rapidly. Plague causes fever and a painful swelling of the lymph glands called buboes, which is how it gets its name. The disease also causes spots on the skin that are red at first and then turn black. EFFECT After five years 25 million people were dead-- one-third of Europe's people. Medieval society never recovered from the results of the plague. So many people had died that there were serious labor shortages all over Europe. This led workers to demand higher wages, but landlords refused those demands. By the end of the 1300s peasant revolts broke out in England, France, Belgium and Italy. Fewer people, more food, lower food prices, more money to spend

Population Decline 25 million people died in just under five years between 1347 and Estimated population of Europe from 1000 to million million million million million million
