Natural Disasters
I teach in the southern coal fields of West Virginia, one
thing my students are becoming aware of are natural disasters, this is because of
having a major flood in the area a couple of years ago. As for hurricanes, earthquakes or volcano
disasters my students do not understand.
I hope this will change in the next couple of weeks because I will be
teaching Earth science.
The way in which I help my students become aware of natural
disasters is by letting the students watch Channel One. In addition, I also research the disaster on YouTube
and other sites like the history channel in addition; I show videos on natural
disasters.
I hope as I being the Earth science unit I will help my
students get a better understand of natural disaster. In addition, I want to see if I can see up a community
group in which the students can donate to an area which has gone through a
natural disaster.

I agree with you about the fact that our students are closely related to these natural disasters. I am sure that with this information we will be able to make a difference in our student's attitude and thinking.
Wish you good luck !

Hello,
In addition to starting a community group, you may want to check out dosomething.org as a resource for finding opportunities for students to participate in. You can choose to search by various criterion such as location or the subject receiving aid. Good luck! --Amy :)
