Many lives were lost and many people need help following Nepal’s earthquake. Kids everywhere are saying:

© 2015 by Vicki Whiting, Editor

Jeff Schinkel, Graphics

Several organizations are asking the public to donate money to help get the supplies they need to assist people affected by the earthquake.

There are LOTS of ways kids like you can help. This special Kid Scoop page tells you how!

SPECIAL EDITION

An earthquake is one of the most powerful forces on earth. On April 25, 2015 a major earthquake in Nepal destroyed buildings throughout this mountainous nation located between China and India (see map below). Thousands of lives were lost and thousands more were injured.

Make a poster, or several posters, that includes these words:

When you crack the shell of a hard-boiled egg, you get a lot of separate pieces or plates of shell. The crust of the earth is like the shell of a hard-boiled egg. It is broken up into plates, too. When the plates shift or move, that creates an earthquake.

Scientists use an instrument called a seismograph to measure earthquakes. Try this activity with a friend to find out how a seismograph works.

Standards Link: Earth Science: Students know that plate tectonics account for major geological events.

HELP NEPAL’S EARTHQUAKE VICTIMS! Please donate what you can to: (name of organization) (Web address) (phone number) Illustrate your poster with helping hands, smiling faces, or people saying “Thank You!” Ask local businesses, doctors and dentists offices and more if they will display your poster in their windows. Your artwork will attract attention in a very special way!

1. On a table place a small toy car on a piece of paper.

Following Hurricane Katrina, Kid Scoop readers came up with creative ideas to raise a lot of money, a little at a time. A student in Pennsylvania told us …

2. One person holds a pencil with the lead lightly resting on the paper. 3. The other person moves the paper back and forth very slowly. What kind of line does the pencil make? Does the car move? 4. Now move the paper so that the car starts to slide around. What kind of line does the pencil make now?

The country of Nepal is located in the Himalayan Mountains between China and India. What if you could understand kindness with all of your senses? Look through the newspaper for pictures that show what kindness: looks like sounds like feels like smells like tastes like Can you find an example for all five? Standards Link: Social Science: Students understand that being a good citizen involves acting in certain ways.

Ask an adult if there are some chores around home you could do to raise a little money to donate to help Nepal’s earthquake victims. You’ll be helping two places at once!

Find the words in the puzzle, then in this week’s Kid Scoop stories and activities.

hen the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers flooded in 1884, a group of six children put on a play, raised money and sent it to the American Red Cross. The money helped a family that suffered greatly from the flood. To find out how much money the children raised, add up all of the even numbers on the red crosses below.

ANSWER: $50.

Standards Link: Math: Compute sums to 100.

The American Red Cross provides help to victims of disasters and helps people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies. www.redcross.org 1-800-733-2767

UNICEF is helping in Nepal by providing children with clean water, food and emergency security services. www.unicef.org 1-800-FOR-KIDS

CARE is providing emergency food, shelter and medical aid following the earthquake that killed nearly 4,000 people in Nepal. www.care.org 1-800-422-7385

After a disaster like the Nepal earthquake, disease can spread quickly without proper sanitation and clean drinking water which Oxfam helps to provide. www.oxfamamerica.org 1-800-776-9326

Above are just some of the many agencies rushing to assist in Nepal. Look for more in your newspaper or at your newspaper’s Web site.
