Grade: 6
Title: Plate Tectonics
Skills
Students will be skilled at analyzing and interpreting maps of earthquake epicenters, volcanic activity, and seafloor age to identify plate boundaries and infer plate motion.
Students will be skilled at constructing written and oral evidence-based arguments that connect multiple lines of geological data to a claim about Earth's structure or history.
Q1. Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth's surface at varying time and spatial scales.
Q2. Analyze and interpret data on the distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of the past plate motions.
Q3. Analyze and interpret data on natural hazards to forecast future catastrophic events and inform the development of technologies to mitigate their effects.
