Earthquake and Volcano Projects:
DUE MAY 16!! Choose one:

Make a Volcano:
 * You can create a topographically correct volcano. Use a topographical map to re-create an actual volcano. You can find maps on these [|here under "igneous activity"], the volcano can be made out of any material - [|cardboard], clay, etc, but must replicate a real volcano not a made up one. If you need help reading a topographical map look on pg 24-27 in your book.
 * You can create an 3D map of a volcano. You may use [|Google Sketch Up] to draw an actual volcano, it needs to be topographically correct.
 * You may create an animation of a real volcano. It needs to be topographically correct. Here is an[| example of one] Ideas for sites to create this are [|Scratch]or [|DoInk]

Video or Newspaper reporting a Earthquake or Volcano:
 * This must be on an actual event - earthquake or volcano eruption. The report has to be factual.
 * Video must play - it can be brought on CD, DVD, flash drive, or even can be uploaded to internet (not YouTube, it is blocked) but the student must be able to find the file and play it. I will be glad to help.
 * Newspaper - must be a 5 page newspaper not just front, be creative! Needs to take place after the event.
 * Video news report - must be in a new report format and at least 2 minutes long. I can be different stories on the same event.

Build an Earthquake-proof building:
 * Create a structure that would be earthquake proof. You will need to tell why you made it the way you did and demonstrate it to the class.
