Earthquake Reflection
What have you learnt from this activity?
I have never learned about earthquakes before, so basically that means I have learnt loads of things from earthquake. For example, How it was formed, where it usually happens, the biggest earthquake.
Why are you learning it?
Because it is important because if Tsunami hits, we can be prepared in the future.
What did you find hard? Why?
What I find hard is the frequency. Maybe someone needs to do some explanation. and also to find information.
What did you find easy? Why?
I found easy was how it was formed.
What skill have we used? How?
.We have used creativity for our mind-map timeline and the frequency that we did by hand!
.We have collected a lot of information about earthquake.

A teamwork is when this team works well and everyone participates and help each other to solve a
problem
2. What makes a successful team?
A successful team is when you gather all your individual work and put it together and it must be
organised and also, you must be respectful from other people's opinion on their ideas. is it is wrong you
must make one strong opinion where everybody would agree on it.
