Cyclone Nargis: impacts and responses

This resource investigates the impacts and responses to Cyclone Nargis, an example of a tropical storm. Students complete an introduction to the Junta and the influence they have on impacts. This is followed by a card sort where students categorise impacts into social, economic and environmental. Finally students analyse a section of text and use video sources to identify the different responses to this extreme weather event.

This resource includes teaching notes with answers to some of the tasks and allows students to create a conprehensive case study of a tropical storm.
