In this stepping stone we will be exploring the cycling of Earth’s plates due to the convection currents in the Earth’s mantle to see how geologic events change Earth’s surface.
SKILLS DEFINED:
3.1 I create a model to represent an event or system.
3.2 I can use a model to predict outcomes or test a hypothesis.
3.3 I can use my understanding of the limitations of the model to make it better.
To Do:
View the video on Earth’s convection currents titled "Plate Tectonics". 👤
Draw a model of convection currents (This can be created in a format of your choice). 👤
Attend a class session and complete the Convection Currents Lab Demo. 🔬
Make a copy of the Plate Boundary Diagrams. 👤
Watch the Plate Boundary Powerpoint notes to complete.👤
Submit to Slate. ☑️
