Plate Tectonics (8.8.5)
The crust of the Earth is made of moving plates driven by convection currents deep in the Earth's mantle. Three types of boundaries (convergent, divergent, and transform) help explain various landform structures (mountains, mid-ocean ridges, volcanoes, and earthquakes).
Track Earthquakes and plot them using data from: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/

See your classmates' animations.
Try out the landform detective activity to see how different structures were made:
Landform Detectives
Now that you've studied both tectonic plates and the rock cycle, try and see if you can determine how different landforms around the world were created.
