Our task last week and this week was to decide what would happen for the 3 little pigs if their house in Lyttelton Christchurch was struck by a 8.9 Earthquake. First, the students drew a picture of what they believed the house would look like. Most students drew a pile of rubble. They then shared these on their blogs. The second task was to create a 3D model of where the pigs would move to within New Zealand. To help the students they had a map of the faultlines and tectonic plates. After constructing the model the students chose what sort of terrain would be in the area they had chosen. Based on that the houses were then placed in an earthquake simulator. Check out their blog slides with their videos embedded.
