Mystery Science offers this resource that provides students with an overview of the causes, consequences, and control of earthquakes. In this resource, participants will find a 5-minute video rich with animations, explanations, and images related to the topic along with a ‘bonus’ activity that challenges students to make predictions around rock formations using prior knowledge and the information they received from the video. While the information provided is valuable and age-appropriate for upper elementary students, the resource would appeal to a larger scope of students if it used different types of teaching methodologies (written explanations, increased user interaction, etc.) to support with different learning styles.
