The last two classes have been spent investigating the specifics of the 4 major plate boundaries that we will be studying in this class:

Animation on Pangea and how continental drift occurred
Lecture on Continental Drift and Plate Boundaries - Dry but super helpful
EXTRA RESOURCES - STUFF ISN'T BEING ASSESSED, BUT HELPS ADD TO OUR KNOWLEDGE
A Brief History of Time and Life on Earth
The Big Bang - In a Nutshell
Biological Impact of Plates Colliding in North America - TED Ed
- Converging - Subduction Zones
- Converging - Collision Zones
- Diverging Plate Boundaries
- Transform Fault Boundaries
We have spent time reading through the first 3 chapters in the Study Guide - and have completed the notes and diagrams alongside this. Today we reviewed the notes, and also examined this powerpoint to help us study, and give us visuals of the different types of boundaries and features.
We also watched this video Plate Boundaries Explained and completed an "Oreo Cookie" Tectonics lab that helped us understand the idea of faulting and folding.
Next class we will be linking the study of plate boundaries, to actual world map locations around the world.
