Evidence of Plate Activity
These natural hot springs were a beacon of joy after traversing the Salar de Uyuni and northern Atacama Desert, in Bolivia, during winter for two days and nights. The Termas de Polques sit at an elevation of 4394 masl.

Wegener's Puzzling Continents (Fossils)
Try to logically piece the continents together so that they form a giant supercontinent. Use Wegener's fossil evidence to place them in the correct positions.

Magnetic Polarity
Plot the 20 points and draw a Geomagnetic Reversal Timescale. Shade in periods of Normal Polarity black, and let periods of Reverse Polarity be white.

Read this: Seafloor Spreading Hypothesis
As you are reading, answer the three review questions in your notes to solidify your own understanding—
How does the pattern of magnetic stripes give evidence for seafloor spreading?
How does the topography of the seafloor give evidence for seafloor spreading?
How does seafloor spreading fit into the idea that continents move about on Earth’s surface?
List and describe how the discovery of seafloor spreading reinforced support for Continental Drift Theory (aka Plate Tectonics)
