    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING to demonstrate our understanding of the movement in the inner core by applying our learning through a convection current experiment
    • We are PLANNING to construct the different tectonic boundaries by using sandwiches as models and demonstrate our understanding of this. We will be doing this through collaboration as a group.

    Convection Currents & Plate Tectonics - Laney Lee

    Plan for the next 2 weeks is as follows: 

    Week 4: 


    Paearu Angitu / Success Criteria: I can/have...

      • Explain the process of the motion of the tectonic plates. 

      • 2. Recognize and assemble the continents of the supercontinent, Pangea. 

      • 3. Understand the importance of convection currents. 

      • 4. Explain the significance of convection currents and plate tectonics.

     Activities:

    1. Convection current experiment - instructions on Google classroom 
    2. Video - Pangaea evidence
    3. Scientific literacy - PEDAL structure on continental drift theory 

    Mahi Kāinga / Homework:
    Complete your worksheets on GC

    Week 5: 



    Paearu Angitu / Success Criteria: I can/have...

      1. Describe the 3 different types of plate boundaries:

      • Divergent

      • Convergent

      • Transform
