10 Find: San Andreas, Great Rift Valley, Himalayas

11 Don’t forget… The crust is made of two parts. Oceanic Crust
Continental Crust These two types of crust can interact in a variety of ways.

12 Focus on Convergent Boundaries
Continental – Continental: Continental – Oceanic Oceanic - Oceanic

13 MOVING PLATES Option 1 Option 2
Foldable of the three types of converging boundaries Include: which plate is denser, which plate subducts, what landforms are created, and real world examples Option 2 PowerPoint with same info as above Topography Paper – How are landforms created? Role Play – Contemporaries of Alfred Wegener

14 Cut along dashed lines to create 3 flaps
Foldable Cover Design Fold Paper in Half Hamburger Style Moving Plates Continental Continental Continental Oceanic Oceanic Oceanic Cut along dashed lines to create 3 flaps
