5. Primary Sources(Write under “Primary Sources” of foldable) • Primary sources – actual records that provide firsthand accounts of events • Examples: letters, diary entries or journals, photographs, speeches, interviews, autobiographies, artifacts

6. Secondary Sources(Write under “Secondary Sources” of foldable) • Secondary sources – secondhand accounts of primary sources; secondary sources comment on, summarize, explain, or draw conclusions from primary sources (or other secondary sources) • Examples: textbooks, encyclopedias, articles, essays, biographies, summaries

17. Continue Poetry Study – “Hoods” “Hoods” is a poem from Brickyard Summer – a book of poems by a narrator who is never named. Always take the narrator of a poem to be separate from the author unless and until you discover otherwise! 10:55 – 11:30

18. Let’s have a CLOSE READING, and get to know the poem! Action - Reaction The narrative begins with an action and a reaction, which leads to another action. Did you notice?

19. On a sheet of paper create a flow chart similar to the one below. Write the initial action of the poem in the first box. In the box to the right, write in a reaction that comes from the initial action. Fill in the other boxes with similar actions and reactions.

20. Action – Reaction Examples! • Action: At the start of the poem, the narrator spots the boys breaking into a car • Reaction: Spider sends his accomplices after the narrator • Reaction: The narrator flees to the reference room of the public library, where he observes the danger lurking on the street. • Action: The gang’s leader arrives to draw them away. • Reaction: The narrator basks in the satisfaction of having eluded the “hoods,” with a further bonus that he can brag to his best friend, Raymond.

21. Noticing Plot Although “Hoods” has only two stanzas, there are a few turning points in the narrative action Each one begins with the narrator telling what he did next: I bounded away, I climbed, I watched, I waited. Each phrase propels the narrator into a new stage of his escape.

22. Plot Line – a story line Climax Peak Falling Action Line Rising Action Line I bounded away, I climbed, I watched, I waited Where would the four turning points mentioned above fall on the plot line?

28. Constructive & Destructive Forces on Landforms

29. Constructive Forces

30. http://pbskids.org/wilsonandditch/cities/?city=grand-canyon Destructive Forces

31. Two Types of Forces • Destructive Forces: processes that destroy landforms. • 2 types: Slow (weathering) and Fast (Erosion) • Ex. landslides, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, floods • Constructive forces:forces that build up an existing landform or create a new one. • Caused by: water, gravity, wind and glaciers. • Ex: deposition, landslides, volcanic eruptions, floods http://www.watchknowlearn.org/Video.aspx?VideoID=5130&CategoryID=2443

32. Weathering Weathering Pictures • Weathering: a slow, destructive force that breaks rocks into smaller pieces called sediments. Can by physical (mechanical) or chemical. • Keywords: wear down, break apart

33. Mechanical weathering:the breaking of rock into smaller pieces by forces due to gravity, ice, plant roots, or other physical forces.

34. Chemical Weathering: the changing of materials in a rock by chemical processes.

35. Erosion Grand Canyon Video • Erosion: the destructive movement of materials away from one place by wind, water, ice and gravity. Wave Erosion- caused by water Wind Erosion (Dust Storm)

36. Landslides • Landslides: occur when gravity quickly pulls rock and dirt downhill.

37. Floods • Floods: a great flow of water over an area that is usually dry land.

38. Volcanic Eruptions • Volcano: an opening in the Earth’s crust through which steam, lava and ashes erupt. • Cause both destructive and constructive changes to landforms.

39. Mount St. Helens Mount St. Helens Video Saint Helen’s Before Saint Helen’s After

40. Volcanoes can be constructive, but also destructive…

41. Earthquakes • Earthquakes: the shaking of Earth’s surface caused by the release of energy along a fault. San Andreas Fault, California

42. Volcanoes & Earthquakes Tectonic Plates, Volcanoes & Earthquakes

43. Erosion & Deposition • Deposition: the placing of materials in a new place (constructive force). • Ex. Sandbars

44. Water Erosion & Deposition • River Delta- Deposits of sediment at the mouth of the Mississippi River creating new land called a delta.

45. Wind Erosion & Deposition • Sand Dunes- sand is moved by wind Desert Sand Dunes Ocean Sand Dunes

46. Group Project! • Task • Your teacher will place you in a group with two or three other students who will co-author a presentation on constructive and destructive forces.  In your research you will identify ways in which the forces factor in shaping the earth's surface.   • After completing your research you will choose to create either a Tornado in a Bottle or an Erupting Volcano at home.          First Things First! – Assemble groups and choose constructive or destructive force (based on your teachers requirements)
