Disasters+Unit

**__Natural Disasters__** ** Cos: Identify ways to prepare for natural disasters in the United States. **  During the months of September and October, we began a unit on natural disasters. In this unit, the students learned about 4 different types of natural disasters (tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and winter storms). The students researched how they were formed, where they mostly occur, what season they mostly occur in, and how to survive a natural disaster. We researched tornadoes together and then the students formed teams to research hurricanes, floods, and winter storms. The students presented the material to the students with a PowerPoint that they created. The students also created a survival plan and a survival kit.
