Stop Disasters!
Stop Disasters could be a great game for geography and Earth science practitioners to use in their teaching.
Stop Disasters is a game designed for learners to learn about...
- natural disasters,
- disaster prevention, and
- city design.
There are five game scenarios that learners can play. They can plan to prepare for...
- hurricanes,
- floods,
- earthquakes,
- wildfires, and
- tsunamis.
For practitioners, Stop Disasters provides...
- fact sheets to distribute to learners about each type of natural disaster.
- teaching guides,
- lesson plan ideas, and
- links to additional reference materials.
