Earthquake in Haiti

In the past week, Third Graders at Hyde have been very curious about earthquakes. The students are asking some really great questions about how earthquakes happen, what to do if there is an earthquake and do earthquakes happen in New York. As well as their curiosity, they have also been showing their concern for the people of Haiti.

Students: After reading the Time for Kids article, An Earthquake Shakes Haiti, by Vickie An. Post about your feelings about earthquakes and what has happend in Haiti.
