Announcement of the topic:

say, “Today we will learn about tsunami.”

Presentation:

The teacher will explain tsunami and the causes of tsunami.

Tsunami: When large earthquakes occur in ocean areas, the sea floor rises or sinks.
Accordingly massive amount of water on the sea floor also move up or down, and this movement
spreads out in all directions in the ocean. The resulting waves are called tsunamis.

Causes of tsunami: The large ocean wave is caused by sudden motion of the floors,
earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions, landslides, glacier calving,
meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water, these all have the potential to
generate a tsunami.
