Presentation on theme: "DO NOW V: 0 Friday 12/12 In your INB, answer the following:"— Presentation transcript:

1 DO NOW V: 0 Friday 12/12 In your INB, answer the following:
Describe how convection works? How does convection create tectonic plate movement?

2 TEKS 8.9 (A) describe the historical development of evidence that supports plate tectonic theory 8.9 (B) relate plate tectonics to the formation of crustal features

3 ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS: DAILY OBJECTIVES:
What was the early theory of continental drift; who developed it, and when was it developed? What were the discoveries that led to a theory of plate tectonics, and when were these discoveries made? How and why does the Earth’s surface change? DAILY OBJECTIVES: Students will demonstrate mastery of TEK 8.9 A and B.

4 VOCABULARY Tectonic Plate Plate Tectonics Convergent Boundary Divergent Boundary Transform Boundary Subduction Zone Ridge Trench Island Arc Earthquake Volcano Mountain Ranges

5 Agenda QUIZ ON TUESDAY Today’s Agenda Homework
Geological Feature/Event Research and Poster Plate Tectonics Theory due today! QUIZ ON TUESDAY

6 Homework V: 0 Trade and grade homework.
