In the first block we worked on our Earthquake and Plate Tectonics lab. Most students are working on part 3 of the lab. You will have more time on Friay (tomorrow) to work through the lab.
In the second half we spent 20 more minutes working on the lab and then we switched gears to talk about volcanoes. We talked about the Ring of Fire, where volcanoes occur and what we know about volcanoes near us. We watched the following three videos and answered these 4 questions.
1. Describe what a volcano is in your own words.
2. Link volcanic activity to plate tectonics.
3. List the ways volcanos affect humans (both pos and neg).
4. Compare and contrast Hawaiian volcanoes to those on the coast of North America. (Similarities and Differences).
