1. SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE PART TWO!
TOTALLY CLASS!

2. ALFRED WEGENER DANCE STEP=THINKING MOTION, POINT TO HEAD
SAY “I WILL CALL IT…CONTINENTAL DRIFT”
NOTES=HE CAME UP WITH THE THEORY OF CONTINENTAL DRIFT BASED ON EVIDENCE COLLECTED FROM SIMILAR FOSSILS, ROCKS, CLIMATE, AND THE CONTINENTS SEEM TO FIT TOGETHER

3. CONTINENTAL DRIFT DANCE STEP= HUG MOTION, THEN SEPARATE
NOTES= CONTINENTAL DRIFT STATED THAT THE CONTINENTS WERE ONCE TOGETHER INA SINGLE LANDMASS CALLED PANGAEA, THEN BROKE APART, AND HAVE SINCE DRIFTED TO THEIR CURRENT LOCATIONS.

4. PLATES DANCE STEP= MOVE AROUND FIRST..THEN, FLOATING MOTION IN AIR
NOTES= TECTONIC PLATES ARE PIECES OF THE LITHOSPHERE THAT MOVE AROUND AND FLOAT ON TOP OF THE ASTHENOSPHERE
LIKE A CRACKED EGGSHELL(PIECES SEPARATED BY JAGGED CRACKS)

5. PLATE BOUNDARY
DANCE STEP= DRAW TWO JAGGED PLATES WITH HANDS AND THEN HAVE THEM TOUCH
NOTES= A PLATE BOUNDARY IS A PLACE WHERE TECTONIC PLATES TOUCH

6. CONVERGENT BOUNDARIES
DANCE STEP= HANDS COLLIDE TOGETHER/CRASH
NOTES= A CONVERGENT BOUNDARY IS WHEN TWO TECTONIC PLATES COLLIDE OR COME TOGETHER
CAN FORM MOUNTAINS

7. DIVERGENT BOUNDARIES DANCE STEP= MOVE AWAY
NOTES= A DIVERGENT BOUNDARY IS WHEN TWO TECTONIC PLATES MOVE AWAY OR SEPARATE FROM EACH OTHER
MID-OCEAN RIDGE EXAMPLE/VOLCANIC ACTIVITY/SEA-FLOOR SPREADING

8. TRANSFORM BOUNDARY
DANCE STEP= SLIDE OR HAVE HANDS SLIP PAST EACH OTHER/RUB AGAINST EACH OTHER AS WELL
NOTES= A TRANSFORM BOUNDARY IS WHEN TWO TECTONIC PLATES SLIDE OR SLIP PAST EACH OTHER.
EARTHQUAKES HAPPEN HERE/SAN ANDREAS FAULT IN CALIFORNIA/RIFT VALLEY FORMS

9. PLATE MOTION-COMPRESSION STRESS
DANCE STEP=SQUEEZE
NOTES-COMPRESSION STRESS=SQUEEZING=CONVERGENT BOUNDARY=REVERSE FAULTS

10. PLATE MOTION-TENSION STRESS
DANCE STEP=STRETCHING
NOTES= TENSION STRESS=STRETCHING= DIVERGENT BOUNDARY=NORMAL FAULTS

11. PLATE MOTION- SHEARING STRESS
DANCE STEP=SLIDING BY/SLIPPING APART/BREAKING OFF AS GOES BY/OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS
NOTES=A STRESS THAT PUSHES A MASS OF ROCK IN TWO OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS IS CALLED SHEARING. CAN CAUSE A ROCK TO BREAK AND SLIP APART OR CHANGE ITS SHAPE
SHEARING=TRANSFORM BOUNDARY=STRIKE-SLIP FAULT

12. SUBDUCTION/OCEANIC CRUST
DANCE STEP=SINKING MOTION/DIVING MOTION
NOTES=SUBDUCTION IS WHEN THE DENSER, OCEANIC CRUST SINKS BENEATH

13. THEORY OF PLATE TECTONICS
DANCE STEP= ROBOT/SLOW MOTION
NOTES= THE THEORY OF PLATE TECTONICS STATES THAT PIECES OF EARTH’S LITHOSPHERE ARE IN CONSTANT, SLOW MOTION, DRIVEN BY CONVECTION CURRENTS IN THE MANTLE

14. MID-OCEAN RIDGE
DANCE STEP= FORM MOUNTAINS, THEN HOLD NOSE AS YOU GO UNDERWATER
NOTES= THE MID-OCEAN RIDGE IS THE LONGEST UNDERWATER MOUNTAIN CHAIN IN THE WORLD AND IS WHERE NEW CRUST IS LOCATED DURING SEA-FLOOR SPREADING

15. CONTINENTAL CRUST
DANCE STEP=MAKE MOUNTAINS AND DRAW AN OUTLINE OF A HOUSE IN THE AIR
NOTES=THE CONTINENTAL CRUST IS THICKER, MADE OF GRANITE, MOUNTAINS ARE HERE AND IT THE CRUST WE LIVE ON

16. YOUNGER AND OLDER CRUST
DANCE STEP=NEW CRUST=CENTER/CLOSER
OLDER CRUST= PUSH TO EDGES
NOTES=YOUNGER CRUST IS FOUND CLOSE TO THE MID-OCEAN RIDGE AND OLDER CRUST GETS PUSHED FAR AWAY FROM THE MID-OCEAN RIDGE TO THE EDGES

17. SEA-FLOOR SPREADING DANCE STEP=SAY “H,H” THEN PULL AWAY MOTION
NOTES-HARRY HESS, AMERICAN GEOLOGIST IDENTIFIED MID-OCEAN RIDGE AND SEA-FLOOR SPREADING, SEA-FLOOR MOVES APART(DIVERGENT BOUNDARY)
