Recording seismic data

Last week we investigated how a seismograoh works and how to read a seismogram. Today we wrapped up our lesson by looking at how seismologist use this data to find the epicenter.

Most damage during an earthquake comes from structures affected by the shaking. We discussed improvements that could be made in our classroom to minimize damage and keep us safe. BONUS!! On a separate piece of paper complete a safety check of your house. Choose one room or the whole thign- tell me what improvements you could make to keep damage to a minimum. This is an optional homework

Homework (everyone is to complete): Study guide questions for test on Wednesday, October 5. This page will go in your notebook on pg 19.
