Shaking Our World

Layer:

Lithophere
Activities:  BrainPop Video, Music Videos
Topics:  Mountains, layer of the Earth, plate boundary, and plate tectonics.
  
         They are three type of plate boundary: Divergent boundary, convergent boundar, and transform boundary. Convergent boundary teo plates come together. Divergent boundary when two plates moving apart. Transform boundary when two plate slide past each other. The Earth have four layers. Which is crust, mantle, outer core and inner core. Crust is the layer that we live on. The inner core is most dense and is most hottest. the core layer make up of iron and nickle.


Asthenosphere
Activities: Prediction Map. Demonstraction Lab
Topics: tectonic plate, concection currents

           Convenction currents is the movement of mantle. The mantle is heated by the interior core and is carried to the mantle by convection currents.  The movement of the mantle affact the movement on top. When transform boundary happen will cause earthquake. When convergent boundary happen will cause trenches and mountain.  When divergent boundary happen will cause ridges and rift valley.

Mantle
Activities: Exploration Labs
Topics: Subduction Zone, Ring of fire,
           Subduction zone is one plate goes under another plate make of mountain, trenches, and volcano. The ring of fire is the area around Pacific Plate with a lot of earthquake and volcanic activities. Earthquake cause by transform boundary and movement of fault.


Critical thinking Question.

 Do you agree with the theory of plate tectonics? Why or why not?

         I agree with the theory of plate tectonics, because scientists measure that  the earth keep moving every year and another evidence is envirnment factor, the earth continue moving cause earthquark and tsunami happen.

Reflection

1. What did you enjoy most about this project and why?

   I most enjoy doing the lab. Because is fun that following the step and see look forward to what happen next.

2. What was most challenging for you during this project and why?

     The most challenging for me during this project is the presentation, because I have to prepare a lesson.

3. What new skills did you learn from doing this porject?

  I learned some teach skill during the presenttation.

4. Is there anything that you could have donw to improve any of your work? Explain.

  Yes, I will add more information and make it more creative to improve my work.
