Summary Table Geological Processes Due 1/31



Thanks Tommy!

summary table answer key (for some of it)

Thanks Morgan!

key
1.) Activity 5: Less/More Gassy Magma Lab and models
2.) finish Rock Cycle Model (due by Tues)

3.) Finish Summary Table (all but EQ structure row) Due 1/31

Rock Cycle Model

GOTTA HAVE IT LIST

  • sedimentary
  • sediments (gravel, sand, silt, clay)
  • volcano
  • magma
  • igneous
  • melting/cooling/hardening
  • metamorphic
  • weathering/erosion
  • wind, rain, water
  • pressure and heat
  • lava
  • marble, quartz = metamorphic
  • fossils
  • limestone, conglomerate = sedimentary
  • basalt, obsidian = igenous
  • rock layers (sedimentary --> metamorphic)

class today- this has to be in your modeling NB

click here for picture

analysis:
1.) How many puzzle pieces do you have? What are they?

2.) How many PLATES are there in the lithosphere?

3.) How many continents are in the world?

4.) List 2 pieces of evidence the puzzle provided about changes on Earth's surface over time?


5.) Alfred Wegener used the phrase continental drift for his idea. Why do you think Wegener also used evidence found in rock layers and fossils? 

midterm review sheet homework

Monday: land, water, and human interactions unit vocabulary to know defined in modeling NB
(25 terms)

Tuesday: land, water, human section 1-6 questions

Wed: study ques for land, water, human continued: 1-4

Retake these old vocab quizzes to prepare for the midterm

Land and Human Quiz

Water Contamination Vocabulary Quiz

Happy New Year!

Welcome back! Happy 2019!

Please make sure your binder is organized and all handouts are completed.

Hopefully everyone got new colored pencils and pens/pencils over break for a successful second semester!



This week in science:

Wednesday: 
complete convergent and divergent chart
begin working on act. 10 simulation plate boundaries models with a partner
due by Friday at the latest

Thurs: finish models for act 10 plate boundaries

Fri: act. 11 reading and chart

HW all week: Summary table geological processes unit so far:
-act 2 you can cross out, we are not doing this
-act. 4
-act. 6
-act. 10
-act. 14
should all be done!


Next week: 
HW all week: Midterm Review terms defined and questions answered in modeling Notebook

1/7 Monday: act. 12: puzzle and modeling in NB (continental drift and fossils)
1/8 Tuesday: encyclopedia article and scavenger hunt on the difference between Continental Drift and Plate Tectonics
1/9 Wed: word splash
1/10 Thurs: Sound Waters in science class
1/11: act. 13 video clips
