Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

4. A detailed case study in how to set up a successful QR Scavenger Hunt using this tool can be found here.

Question

Answer

1. Pulls on the crust, stretching rock so it becomes thinner in the middletension
2. Landform created by tensionmid ocean ridge
3. Type of plate boundary where tension stress occursdivergent boundary
4. Squeezes rock until it folds or breakscompression
5. Landform created by compressionmountain ranges
6. Type of plate boundary where compression occursconvergent
7. Pushes rock in opposite directionsshearing
8. Landform created by shearingfaults
9. Type of plate boundary where shearing occurstransform
10. Strain in which a rock is permanently changedplastic
11. Vibrations in the ground that result from movement along faults, or breaks in Earth’s lithosphereearthquake
12. Fault caused at a divergent plate boundarynormal fault
13. Two blocks of rock slide horizontally past each other in opposite directions strike slip fault
14. A strike slip fault occurs at which type of plate boundarytransform
15. Force pushes two blocks of rock together with the rock above the fault moving upreverse fault
16. A reverse fault occurs at which type of plate boundaryconvergent
17. Point beneath Earth’s surface where rock under stress breaks to cause an earthquakefocus
18. Point on the surface directly above the focusepicenter
19. Move slower than P and S waves, but can produce severe ground movement with a wavelike motionsurface waves
20. Compression waves that travel through solids and liquids, compressing and expanding the material they pass through, temporarily changing volumePrimary waves
21. Only travel through solids and temporarily change the shape, but not the volume of the material they pass through; move slower than P wavesSecondary waves
22. Devices that measure and record ground motion and helps determine the distance seismic waves travelseismometer
23. Weak spot in earth’s crust where molten material, or magma, comes to the surfacevolcano
24. Area where material from deep within the mantle rises then melts, forming magma; a volcano forms above a hot spot when magma erupts through the crust (ex. Hawaiian Islands)Hot Spot
25. Magma has low silica content, flows easily and erupts quietly with gases bubbling out gently and lava oozing quietlyquiet eruption
26. An eruption that hurls out ash, cinders and magma bombsexplosive eruption
27. Fountain of water and steam that erupts from the ground when buildup of pressure is releasedgeyser
28. Formed when groundwater is heated by a nearby body of magma or hot rock and eventually rises to the surface to collect in a natural poolhot spring
29. Geothermal ActivityOccurs when magma, a few kilometers, beneath Earth’s surface, heats underground water
30. Which forces squeeze rocks together, causing them to fold or fracturecompression
31. When rocks deform plastically under compression stresses theybreak
32. At which type of plate boundary boundary, do the world’s largest mountains growconvergent
33. The sudden release of energy stored in rocks createsearthquakes
34. The main reason there are so many earthquakes around the Pacific ocean basins isthe tremendous number of convergent plate boundaries
35. To find an earthquake epicenter, a seismologist needs to knowthe distances from three different seismic stations to the epicenter
36. As stresses build in a regionthe rocks deform plastically and then break
37. Mountain ranges rise where there arecompressive stresses
38. A useful earthquake prediction will include the quake'stiming,magnitude
39. One reason fewer people die in developed nations than developing ones in the same magnitude earthquake isthe quality of construction is better
40. Shear stress is the most common stress at transform plate boundariestrue
