A magnitude 7.6 earthquake has occurred near the Aomori Prefecture in Japan. At least 30 people were injured, and thousands of residents temporarily evacuated from low-lying areas.

To support classroom engagement around this event, we’ve developed a new Teachable Moment presentation that provides background information, scientific context, and data visualizations to help your students explore the geophysical processes involved.  

This resource can be downloaded from:

Thank you for helping your students connect science to the world around them. If you have any questions or feedback, we’d love to hear from you!

Please feel free to share this resource with colleagues who might find it useful.
