Natural Disasters Research Worksheet

The page frames preparation knowledge as a way to feel and be safer during natural disasters. Separate spaces are provided for an earthquake, tornado, hurricane, and drought. For each, learners investigate actions that can be taken by one person, a group, or an entire community, record findings, and draw an accompanying image. The task emphasizes preparedness research across different scales instead of supplying procedures or asking learners to memorize unsupported safety guarantees.
