Natural Disasters

Last week was the last week of our distant learning. Our activity for inquiry/reading was to make a DLO of a natural disaster that had occurred and to inform someone who may not know about natural disasters. A natural disaster is a phenomena that can occur at any time which can be caused by a volcanic eruption, tsunami, earthquake or flood leading to people fleeing the area. I chose to make my DLO about volcanoes. In my DLO I include what volcanoes are, what a volcanic eruption is, examples of volcanic eruptions in New Zealand and a fact. Something I found interesting about volcanoes was that Rangitoto was last active 600 years ago.
