Today in the first half we started by talking about the field trip next week and the expectations. We then talked about the hotspot/intraplate volcanism sheet to ensure understanding of the vocab and how these volcanoes are formed.
From here we went on to review hotspot volcanoes a bit more and then talked about some of the other major types of volcanoes, their lava type and how they affect human's (both pos/neg). We ended with this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sd8cVCtIRO4
In the second half Mr. Robinson visited our class and talked about rocks, different types, their value and the relevance of Geology in our world.
We will have a test on Tuesday on plate tectonics, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis and rocks/rock cycle.
Wednesday next week: field trip to Nakusp hot springs, please bring in your field trip forms and cash.
