FEATURES OF PLATE MOVEMENT MPI: SWBAT communicate how the movement of the tectonic plates is used to understand geological, physical, and geographical features using models. (CO-SHS.3.3.a) Essential Question: What are the consequences of plate movement? DOL: Given MC 100% of SW communicate how the movement of the tectonic plates is used to understand geological, physical, and geographical features with 100% proficiency.

Rift Valleys Divergent boundaries When two continental plates spread apart As time goes on the valley slowly fills with water After enough time they can form oceans

Island Arcs Convergent boundaries Produced through subduction Moves with the plate Older islands are dead or dormant volcanoes Only new islands are directly over the lava flow Ex: Japan

Mountains Convergent boundaries Two continental plates meet and neither is able to go under the other Ex: Himalayas

DOL: Given MC 100% of SW communicate how the movement of the tectonic plates is used to understand geological, physical, and geographical features with 100% proficiency. Volcanoes Convergent Boundary As an oceanic plate subducts under a continental a volcanic mountain range is created The continental land pushes up to mountains The heat of subduction causes the magma to rise up inside the mountains Ex: Rocky Mountains (ours; they’re dead)
