This weekend's homework is the following:
1. Read and gather information about earthquakes and volcanoes in preparation for next week's lessons. Relevant information includes:
- what are earthquakes/volcanoes
- the types/classifications of earthquake/volcano that occur and their characteristics
- where each primarily occurs (as in the type of place and some actual examples)
- how each can affect life on Earth
- how each is related to plate tectonics
