Description: Plate Tectonic Boundary card set is a fun way to dive into the vocabulary associated with plate tectonic boundary types. Students will better understand the following plate tectonic boundary questions: 1. What are the three main types of tectonic plate boundaries on Earth? 2. What happens at tectonic plate boundaries around the world? 3. Which tectonic plate boundary is best represented by this diagram on the card? 4. How do scientists identify plate boundaries in the lithosphere? Objective Students will deepen their knowledge of the name and definitions of vocabulary for a plate tectonic boundary. Oklahoma and Georgia Standards “6.ESS2.2 Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth’s surface at varying time and spatial scales.” “6.ESS2.3 Analyze and interpret data on the patterns of distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of the past plate motions.” “S6E5. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information to show how Earth’s surface is formed. Construct an explanation of how the movement of lithospheric plates, called plate tectonics, can cause major geologic events such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. (Clarification statement: Include convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.” Follow me to catch the savings. New cards are uploaded at 50% off for the first 24 hours.
