1 Programme title: Awesome Forces video conference Years: 3 8 Theme Big questions Key competencies The Earth is not static, but a very dynamic system. Changes can occur very slowly or extremely fast. How do earthquakes and volcanoes occur? Why and how is Aotearoa New Zealand affected by earthquakes and volcanoes? Where have earthquakes and volcanoes occurred in New Zealand? Thinking: Students seek information about earthquakes and volcanoes and consider why Aotearoa New Zealand is affected by these powerful forces of nature. Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 1 of 14
2 English-medium curriculum Science Planet Earth and Beyond Interacting systems L1 and L2: Describe how natural features are changed and resources affected by natural events and human actions. Planet Earth and Beyond Earth systems L3 and L4: Appreciate/develop an understanding that water, air, rocks and soil, and life forms make up our planet and recognise that these are also Earth s resources. Nature of Science Communicating in science L1 and L2: Build their language and develop their understandings of the many ways the natural world can be represented. L3 and L4: Begin to use a range of scientific symbols, conventions, and vocabulary. Social Sciences Māori-medium curriculum Pūtaiao Te Ao Tūroa Papatūānuku T1 T2: Ka ako haere me pēhea te rū whenua me te puia e huri ai i te āhua o te takiwā, me ngā pānga ki te maunga, ki te awa hoki. T4(i): Ka mārama haere ki ngā āhuatanga nui o te mata o Papatūānuku, arā, te wai, te toka, te one, me ngā āhuatanga e taea ai te ora i reira. Tikanga ā-iwi Te Wāhi me te Taiao T1.1: Ka whakamārama i ngā āhuatanga tūturu me ngā āhuatanga ahurea o tētahi wāhi.. Te Ao Hurihuri T4.1: Ka tautohu i ngā pūtake me ngā otinga o ngā tūāhua kua waihanga i te oranga o te tangata. L1: Understand how places in New Zealand are significant for individuals and groups. L2: Understand how places influence people and people influence Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 2 of 14
3 places. L3: Understand how people view and use places differently. L4: Understand that events have causes and effects. Learning intentions Describe the reasons we have earthquakes and volcanoes. Explain that some Earth processes happen very slowly (eg, plate tectonics) while others are very quick (eg, earthquakes and volcanoes). Programme description In this video conference, students explore the inner workings of our planet. They uncover the layers of the Earth and learn about the forces at work in its interior. Students piece together the puzzle of plate tectonics as they discover the causes of earthquakes and volcanoes. This programme also examines liquefaction in Christchurch and the story of the famed Pink and White Terraces of Lake Rotomahana. Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 3 of 14
4 Possible pre-visit activities Mind map As a class, mind map natural events that have occurred in New Zealand. You may have seen them in the news or heard about them from your family. (Teachers: If necessary, narrow the focus to events that are seen as disasters.) Sort your ideas into weather-related events, events caused by people, and events that seem to be caused by something going on inside the Earth. Big questions Share some big questions that you have about the Earth s inner workings, earthquakes, volcanoes, or tsunamis. Display these in your classroom, and use them to guide your inquiries. Shaky planet In groups, research the vital statistics of earthquakes and volcanoes that have occurred globally since you were born, eg, the Indian Ocean tsunami, the Chilean earthquake and eruption, the Icelandic eruption, the Haitian earthquake, the Japanese earthquake and tsunami, the Christchurch earthquake. These statistics could include where the event was located, what it measured on the Richter scale, what countries it affected, what damage it caused, etc. Turn your findings into brief fact cards and mark them on a world map in the classroom. Teachers: You can use the map and data to: elicit the idea that these events happen globally, not just in New Zealand introduce the fact that the location of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions can tell scientists where plate boundaries are located Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 4 of 14
5 introduce the focus of the Te Papa education programme understanding why these events happen. New Zealand volcanoes Find out how many volcanoes New Zealand has and where they are. On a map of New Zealand, mark 5 active volcanoes and 5 extinct volcanoes. On a map of the world, mark 10 volcanoes outside New Zealand that have erupted in the last 25 years. Monitor New Zealand s active volcanoes online with GNS Science s volcano cameras. bit.ly/psgsnk Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 5 of 14
6 Possible post-visit activities Earthquake watch Choose two or three countries that experience earthquakes, and monitor their earthquakes over a week or month. Compare their frequency with that of earthquakes in New Zealand. Record the locations and magnitudes on a world map. As an extension for numeracy, graph the results. Use your findings to decide which parts of the world experience the most earthquakes. Find out about the latest earthquakes in the world on the website of the United States Geological Survey (USGS). earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww For students working at Level 4 of the curriculum Build a seismograph Design an instrument that measure vibrations in the ground. Here are two examples to help you or you can design your own. Basic seismograph pbskids.org/zoom/activities/sci/seismometer.html More technical seismograph tryengineering.org/lessons/seismograph.pdf 3-D Earth Create your own 3-D model of the Earth s structure. Search for the following YouTube videos, which show one way to make a 3-D model. youtube.com Ben Holt Mrs Kepner cutting ball for Model of Interior of Earth Project Part 1 Ben Holt Mrs Kepner & Model Earth Project Part 2 Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 6 of 14
7 Research Investigate natural forces at work around the planet. The BBC science website is an excellent starting point for images, information, and film clips on the Earth s surface and interior, as well as historical tectonic and volcanic events. Explore in particular the Surface & interior topic. bbc.co.uk/science/earth Build an erupting volcano You can use many different chemical reactions to create an erupting volcano, depending how long you want the project to take. The most common method is to use vinegar, baking soda, and food colouring. Replace the vinegar with tomato sauce to make thicker lava. For a violent and messy eruption, drop a Mentos lolly into a bottle of cola. For a more gentle eruption (made using a more advanced method), combine yeast, detergent, and hydrogen peroxide. bit.ly/n45qhh You can make the volcano form in different ways too the only limit is your imagination! The quickest and easiest way is to pile sand into a cone shape and create a hollow at the top. Use clay for a longer-lasting volcano. You can paint it once it dries. You can also use papier mâché to create your volcanic cone. Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa 7 of 14
