Reader Description

The students in Room 14 have to do projects on natural disasters. When a real natural disaster occurs, Sean and Ravi take the initiative to create a blog, and get a real-time report from the people who are affected.

After you have completed the Reader

Sean and Ravi work on a project to find out more about earthquakes, including those that cause tsunamis. Research this topic and describe, step by step, how a tsunami happens. Begin with the undersea earthquake and end with the wave washing onto the land.
