Reflect about the hazards fair:

What went well?
The kids were astonished with our visual presentation. My teammates did a good job at explaining the hands-on to the kids.

What could have been better?
The box of our hands-on, because it was leaking and wasn't sturdy after it got wet.

Describe the experience.
I was quite nervous at first, I was worried about our hands-on experiment, our explanation skills. But once it started we just went with the flow and we managed well. It turned out to be a refreshing experiment because I've been to fairs but I've never been involved in one, so it was a new experience to be behind the counter explaining my work to others.

ELP Hazard

The hazard I'm choosing is the one I've chosen for the hazard fair, which is Tsunami. I chose it because I've already researched the essential parts of it, and I don't mind expanding my knowledge of it with this project.

Success Criteria:
  • To be able to research and list all procedures and factors on how to deal with a tsunami and elaborating on it with reasons.
  • To be able to make an inference based on past tragic events and facts, and to decide the level of management on different tsunamis in different locations.
  • To be able to predict the consequences of my hazard by linking it to other hazards and past tragic events.

Tsunami Presentation Feedback

From Jasmaine’s Group:

What stood out as great?

- The way they presented. The information was short but clear.

What did you not understand?
- I understood everything it was very clear the way they explained it.

What needs to be improved?
- The whole presentation was just talking and reading, maybe add some sort of activity maybe a game or a hands-on. (Yes, I know that you didn’t set up your hands-on)


From Darren’s Group:

Your presentation was very good. It displayed a lot of information about the natural disaster that you were studying. The poster described all the information. However, there was no hands on activity.

From You Zhen’s Group:

The tsunamis group was excellent in presenting the information as their presentation, flyers and posters were extremely informative, concise and organised. The layout of everything was also extremely well done because it was organised and presented in a very informative manner. The only thing that they can improve on is most probably create a hands on activity as everything else was extremely detailed and well-done.

From Thomas’ Group:

Good points
- They had their information clear and readable

What could be improved?
- Nothing needs to be improved, the information is clear and the presentation is informative

What we have left to prepare for tomorrow:

We have to finish off with our poster, we still have a board left to fill up.
We also have to edit our flyer and make it more interesting.
