Today's Lesson 
To do:


- Layers of the Earth 
- Plate tectonics 
- Different movements
Goals: 

- You know the three layers of the Earth 
- You know what happens when plates move.
- You know the different names 


Slide 2 - Slide

Core
Mantle
Crust

Slide 3 - Drag question

timer

Why do Earthquakes happen?

Slide 4 - Mind map

Note: plate tectonics 
The Earth's crust is made of 
different pieces: plates (platen)

The plates 'float' on top of the 
magma from the mantle. 

When the magma moves, so do 
the plates.

Last class: Inside the Earth
Crust - Aardkorst 
Where we live on. 

Mantle - aardmantel 
Molten rock and magma which moves

Core - aardkern 
Solid, made of iron and different minerals

Slide 7 - Slide

What do you think happens when the plates start to move due to the magma?

Slide 8 - Mind map

Slide 9 - Slide

Homework
Find out for each of the plate movements (divergent, convergent and transform) what can happen as a result (think about: earthquakes, volcanoes form... etc). 

Write this down in your notebook. 

Slide 10 - Slide

Note: moving plates
Divergent:
Plates are moving away

Convergent: 
Plates move towards each other

Transform:
Plates move past each other
