Earthquakes of 2011 Plotted!!

I always ask my students, before we start studying plate tectonics, how many earthquakes they think happen in a year.  They always think it is just a few.  This is probably due to the fact that only a few are ever covered in the news, and these are the very destructive ones.  Well here is a very cool video that you should let your students watch.  It plots all the earthquakes that occurred in 2011 and also does sound effects.  Let me know what you think!
