Your Learning Goal:Scientists support their ideas with evidence such as facts found in books or articles,
observations, and results of investigations.

Your Learning Goal:Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions provide evidence that Earths surface changes.
Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are sudden, local events, but may affect largeareas.

Earth Shattering Events 09/15/11
What do you observe about how
Earths surface changes?
Observations are characteristics
that someone notes about an object
or event (either with their sense or
with tools).
Inferences are interpretations about
an object or event based on pre-
existing conceptions.

Your Learning Goal:Earthquakes cause vibrations called seismic waves that spread outward from a focus.
Earthquakes are sudden motions along breaks in Earths crust called faults.

Your Learning Goal:Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur in a pattern around the world. Volcanic
eruptions often occur in regions that also have earthquakes.

Scientific Modeling 09/20/11
Do earthquakes/volcanic
eruptions occur everywhere onEarth?
Do earthquakes/volcaniceruptions happen in the same ordifferent locations?
What patterns do you see in thedata?
Is there a relationship betweenthe continents coastlines and
where the activity occurs?
List 2-3 main ideas you gatheredfrom your data:
09/20/11
Develop at least two questionswith your group that you can askabout your model (what do youneed to include or figure out inorder to make your model more
scientifically accurate?):
Make sure your models represent all
of the evidence you collected that fits
your region. This includesearthquake data and volcanic
eruption data. Some regions may
have different amounts, but all
contain evidence of some seismic or
volcanic activity.

Your Learning Goal:Earths surface moves slowly and continuously, not just
during catastrophic events. GPS is a tool used for directmeasurement of slow surface movement. Differentareas of Earths surface move in different directions
and at different speeds.Table of Contents:
