What is a earthquake? An earthquake is a sudden shaking of the Earth's surface caused by the movement of tectonic plates. These giant slabs of rock are always moving slowly. When they get stuck and then suddenly slip, they release a burst of energy that travels through the ground as seismic waves.
If you ever feel the ground shake, 'Drop, Cover, and Hold On' under a sturdy table until the movement stops.
