  1. DO-NOW: Assignment Monday, October 8, 2012 8th Grade Science On page ___ in your INB, name 3-5 physical features you know of that are found along the dashed lines of the map.

  2. Monday, October 8, 2012 8th Grade Science Today’s Schedule • Do Now • Moving Plate Boundaries • Exit Ticket Pre-AP Homework: Spreading the Seafloor & Extension Assignments Grade-level: Plate Tectonics Packet Essential Question Vocabulary Dark Matter tectonic plate plate tectonics convergent divergent transform ridge trench island arc earthquake volcano How does the Earth’s surface change?

  3. Monday, October 8, 2012 8th Grade Science Today we will… 8.9(A)  describe the historical development of evidence that supports plate tectonic theory 8.9(B) relate plate tectonics to the formation of crustal features Today’s Objective: To model convergent and transform boundaries.

  4. 8th Grade Science Modeling Plate Boundaries Monday, October 8, 2012 • 1. Transform boundaries • 2. Divergent boundaries • 3. Convergent boundaries • - continental-continental • - oceanic-oceanic • - oceanic-continental

  5. 8th Grade Science Modeling Plate Boundaries Monday, October 8, 2012 Activity 1 Convergent boundary (continental-continental crust) Using cardstock with play-doh, push cards together to form mountains http://www.nature.nps.gov/geology/usgsnps/pltec/converge.html Activity 2 Transform boundary Using cardstock with play-doh, move cards side-by-side http://www.cotf.edu/ete/modules/msese/earthsysflr/plates4.html

  6. 8th Grade Science Exit Ticket Monday, October 8, 2012 The Himalayan Mountains are formed where the Indian and Eurasian plate meet. Make a predication about what type of plate boundary exists between the two plates and what types of events occur frequently at this boundary.

  7. DO-NOW: Assignment Tuesday, October 9, 2012 8th Grade Science On page ___ in your INB: Based on what you know about plate tectonics so far, make a predication about why there more earthquakes occur in California than Texas.

  8. Tuesday, October 9, 2012 8th Grade Science Today’s Schedule • Do Now • Wegener’s Puzzle • Exit Ticket Pre-AP Homework: Spreading the Seafloor & Extension Assignments Grade-level: Plate Tectonics Packet Essential Question Vocabulary Dark Matter tectonic plate plate tectonics convergent divergent transform ridge trench island arc earthquake volcano How does the Earth’s surface change?
