Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan

When we got to school this morning we looked at pictures of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan on our Smartboard. We asked the following questions:
Why did this happen in Japan?
How was the tsunami caused?
How many people died?
What did people do when the earthquake took place?
What will we do if there was a tsunami or earthquake in Auckland?
We are going to read about the earthquake and tsunami in Japan and find the answers.

Our class practised what to do if there was an earthquake.
DROP, COVER and HOLD.
To know what to do when there is a natural disaster such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, floods and storms visit the following website
