Plate tectonics
- Know the four main different types of plate boundary and be able to explain how processes at each cause earthquakes and volcanoes.
- Be able to draw effective annotated diagrams of plate boundaries.
- Work as a team member to plan and deliver a min-lesson explaining the processes at one type of plate boundary.
Mini-lesson planning task
In your groups, work collaboratively to create a mini-lesson plan to deliver to the rest of the class. Your learning outcomes are:
By the end of your lesson, students should have achieved the learning above and should be able to annotate a diagram of the boundary you have explained.
- Be able to describe and explain the physical processes at the plate boundary
- Understand the link between the physical processes and the creation of earthquakes and/or volcanoes.
- Be able to name and locate examples of this kind of boundary and of earthquakes/volcanic events which have occurred there.
By the end of your lesson, students should have achieved the learning above and should be able to annotate a diagram of the boundary you have explained.
