ON WHAT TO DO
BEFORE, DURING,
I. (FOR LEARNERS WHO HAVE INTERNET ACCESS)

SEARCH THE INTERNET FOR ANY ARTICLE/

MATERIAL ABOUT A MAJOR EARTHQUAKE
OCCURRENCE. BETTER IF THE EARTHQUAKE THAT
OCCURRED AFFECTED THE LOCAL AREA.
SUBMIT A 1-PAGE REPORT DESCRIBING THIS
EVENT (WHEN, WHAT HAPPENED, EFFECTS TO
PEOPLE AND SURROUNDINGS).
DOWNLOAD PHOTOS OF
IMPACTS/EFFECTS/DAMAGES AND INCLUDE IN YOUR
REPORT.
II. (FOR LEARNERS WITH NO ACCESS TO
INTERNET).
INTERVIEW YOUR GRANDPARENTS,
PARENTS, UNCLES/AUNTS, OLDER
BROTHER/SISTER, NEIGHBOR WHO HAVE
EXPERIENCED EARTHQUAKE IN THE PAST.
ASK THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
A. WHEN DID THIS EARTHQUAKE
OCCUR (MONTH/YEAR IF POSSIBLE).
B. CAN YOU DESCRIBE WHAT YOU FELT
DURING THE EARTHQUAKE, WHAT YOU
DID, AND WHAT WERE THE EFFECTS THAT
YOU SAW AFTER THE EARTHQUAKE.
What are the potential hazards that can affect me, my YES NO
home and my community. How?Will I be affected by
(check all the will apply)
I. Ground shaking:Yes
II. Ground Rupture (only if a fault passes through my
home) (Note:This will be important for areas with
known presence of faults)
III. Liquefaction (Note, only for areas near rivers,
coastal areas, underlain by soft sediments or water-
saturated materials)
IV. Earthquake-induced ground subsidence
V.Tsunami (if my home is near the coast)
VI. Earthquake-induced landslide (if my home is near/
at the base or on the slope of a mountain side)

1. REFERS TO A FRACTURE, FISSURE OR A
ZONE OF WEAKNESS WHERE MOVEMENT
OR DISPLACEMENT HAS OCCURRED OR
MAY OCCUR AGAIN
• A. Fault
• B. Earthquake
• C. Focus
• D. Epicenter
2. BASED ON INSTRUMENTALLY DERIVED
INFORMATION AND CORRELATES STRENGTH
WITH THE AMOUNT OF TOTAL ENERGY RELEASE
AT THE EARTHQUAKES’ POINT OF ORIGIN
•A. Intensity
•B. Magnitude
•C. Focus
•D. Epicenter
3. POINT WITHIN THE EARTH
WHICH IS THE CENTER OF ENERGY
RELEASE DURING AN EARTHQUAKE.
•A. Fault
•B. Earthquake
•C. Focus
•D. Epicenter
TRUE
OR
FALSE
•4. I should go to the shore
to watch a tsunami.
•5. All undersea
earthquakes cause
tsunami.
•6. If I felt a strong earthquake
while near the coast, I should
wait to hear the rumbling sound
before moving to high ground
•7. If a small tsunami is
coming, I should get out of
the water and wait until I
hear it is safe to return.
•8. Is a big tsunami is
coming, I should move as
far inland as I can or to
higher ground.
•9. If I am swimming when a
small tsunami comes, I could
get dragged out to sea by the
strong rips and currents.
•10. A tsunami is most often
caused by undersea
earthquakes.
IDENTIFICATION
11. A SERIES OF GIANT SEA
WAVES COMMONLY
GENERATED BY UNDER THE
SEA EARTHQUAKES WHOSE
HEIGHT COULD BE GREATER
THAN 5 METERS
12. DISPLACEMENT
ON THE GROUND
DUE TO
MOVEMENT OF
FAULT
13. A PROCESS THAT
TRANSFORMS THE BODY OF
SEDIMENTS FROM THAT OF
A SOLID TO THAT OF A
LIQUID WHEN SUBJECTED
TO EXTREMELY INTENSE
SHAKING
14. LOOSE THIN SOIL
COVERING ON THE SLOPES
OF STEEP MOUNTAINS ARE
TO MASS MOVEMENT
ESPECIALLY WHEN
SHAKEN
15. OCCURS AS A
RESULT OF STRONG
GROUND SHAKING
SUCH AS OBSERVED ON
THE MOUNTAINSIDES
AND THE ROAD
16.THIS WILL BE
EXPERIENCED
BY AREAS
WHERE FAULT
PASSES
THROUGH
17. AS A RESULT OF THIS
HAZARD, ANY HEAVY
LOAD ON TOP PF THE
SEDIMENT BODY WILL
EITHER SINK OR TILTS AS
THE SEDIMENT COULD
NO LONGER HOLD
