(We played some sound effects on Ms.AE&#8217;s speaker) 4th graders remembered to drop, cover and hold on to the desk. We swiftly evacuated to the Cougars Cafe, and once everyone settled down, we revealed that it was an earthquake drill. 4th graders started discussing how it felt during the evacuation drill and how we could relate to it. After watching a clip about Earth and sharing their thoughts about the video, they started guessing our next unit; Active Planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped
