Year 5 HASS (Geography) – natural hazards (floods & bushfires)

Welcome Year 5! We will be learning from home using this website this week. This is actually the perfect opportunity to educate ourselves on natural hazards in Australia - especially floods and bushfires. 😁

You've got this, just follow the steps, do one activity at a time, and I’ll be able to see your work. If something doesn’t load, use the button link and keep going. If things feel stressful at home, do what you can, even one activity is a great start. Everything you need is in one place, in the right order, and after each activity you complete one quick check-in so your teacher knows you’ve done it and can help if you’re stuck.

Your learning journey starts here

Learning intention: I am learning how floods and bushfires can impact environments and communities, and how people reduce risk and stay safe.

Success criteria (I can…):

  • explain how floods or bushfires can affect places and people
  • identify safe actions for different hazard situations
  • create a simple emergency plan or emergency kit list

Navigating your remote learning

How to use this site:

  • Start with Activity 1 and complete Activities 1–4 in order.

Have fun! 😁🍎📖
