DESERT ISLAND ACTIVITY LESSON 2 TECTONIC ACTIVITIES ALONG PLATE BOUNDARIES OBJECTIVES YOU WILL LEARN TO: According to the theory of plate tectonics... DID YOU KNOW... The Earth’s plates move around the planet’s surface at the rate of a few centimeters every year! ACT. 1: MODEL OF PLATE BOUNDARIES To model the 3 types of plate boundaries, you will need a sheet of wax paper (about 30x30cm), tape, a plastic knife or spoon, all-purpose cream, two squares of ham(4x4cm), and graham crackers. two plates that are moving apart forming underwater mountain chains (Mid-ocean ridge) A single mid-ocean ridge system connects the world’s oceans, making the Mid- Atlantic Ridge the longest mountain range in the world. As the plates move, boundaries are created. SUMMARY OF THE TECTONIC ACTIVITIES THAT OCCUR ALONG PLATE BOUNDARIES SUMMARY OF THE TECTONIC ACTIVITIES THAT OCCUR ALONG PLATE BOUNDARIES SUMMARY OF THE TECTONIC ACTIVITIES THAT OCCUR ALONG PLATE BOUNDARIES ACTIVITY 4: FIND THE BOUNDARY ON THE MAP! Study the direction of the arrows on the map. Identify the plates that lie on the divergent, convergent, and transform fault boundaries.
