0707.7.5 and 0707.7.6
Can I explain why lithospheric plates on the scale of continents and oceans continually move at rates of centimeters per year?
Am I able to describe the relationship between plate movements and earthquakes, mountain building, volcanoes, and sea floor spreading?
Copy this chart into your SN. If you finish a station early, work on filling out what you have learned!
Plate Tectonics Brain Pop
Plate Tectonics
Plate Tectonics Stations
You will have 12 minutes at each station. We will complete 2 stations per day. Make sure to fill in every spot on lab sheet that has a blank. Jobs:
A- Read all instructions at every station. B- Time Keeper- Let your group know how much time is left every few
minutes. C-Task Force- Keep everyone on task. D-Errand Runner- Your job is to come get me if your group get's
stuck.

Transform Boundaries
Type of boundary: Transform
Example(s): California's San Andreas fault
Effect(s): No lithosphere is created or destroyed, but sometimes the energy is released as an earthquake
Transform BoundarySan Andreas Fault

Draw two arrows describing the motion of plates at a transform boundary.
On which physical layer do lithospheric plates move?
What is one event that can occur at a transform boundary?

Convergent Boundaries
Type of Boundary: Convergent
Example(s): Cascade Mountain Range
Effect(s): Mountains (plates are pushed together), trenches (one plate is subducted, or bent down under the other), volcanoes (magma rises at subduction zones and finds its way to the surface)
