Have you checked out Homeschool Learning Network's FREE unit studies? They are packed full of great information and cover several grade levels at once. You are in for a real treat!
I reviewed "Understanding Earthquakes". This unit covers several subjects: science, language, math, and history. In the beginning, earthquake terms such as faults, seismology, and richter scale are defined. These terms are important as there are more articles on earthquakes further into the study.
This unit also covers earthquakes in history. Did you know that there was an earthquake in China in 1177 BC? Cool!
Not only does this unit study cover facts about earthquakes, but it also covers
what to do and how to prepare for an earthquake. A lot of people don't think that they need to know what to do because they don't live in California but many people live near faults and could, some day, experience an earthquake!
Further into this unit study, there are tons of links for further learning. Although some of the links are expired, most of them do work and will help you and your student find out all about earthquakes!
