A Study of Earthquakes

by  Cretan Seismologists - Κρητικοί Σεισμολόγοι

Description :

The Cretan Seismologists from the Primary School of Gramvousa in Crete🫨 were inspired by living in an island with many earthquakes. With their teachers Ms. Ioanna and Ms. Panoraia, they built their own earthquake machines and skillfully crafted a model of the section of our planet, Earth with playdough. Using cookies, they presented deliciously the different movements of the tectonic plates. Thank you Cretan Seismologists, we really appreciate the knowledge on the natural phenomenon of earthquakes. This is the first step in order to get prepared!🌍

We are the Cretan Seismologists from the 3-class Primary School of Gramvousa, located in a village in western Crete. In the skills workshops we worked on natural disasters. Due to the fact that we live in an earthquake-prone area, we decided to delve deeper into the topic of earthquakes. We learned what causes them and how we can protect ourselves when they happen. Now we have the knowledge to deal with the next earthquake calmly!

Making a model of our planet with playdough was impressive and creative, as well as conducting your experiments, especially when the house made of sticks and clay collapsed. You helped us learn more about earthquakes. Fantastic work!
