Students made great models of plate boundaries on Monday and explained how their subduction, sea floor spreading, or mountain building models worked. I was quite impressed by the depth of many explanations. This week we will learn about earthquakes and vocabulary associated with earthquakes such as: Ring of Fire, fault, epicenter, seismic wave, Richter scale, and tsunami. Students will draw diagrams, read, do a study guide, and watch short video clips to explore the exciting world of earthquakes.
A number of students have not turned in their introductory letter or Science fee of $5.00. Please have your child do this as soon as you can. Thank you.
Homework for the week:
Tuesday: Pg. 423 Review #1, 3, 4, 5
Wednesday: pg. 423 Reflect #1-3
Thursday: Finish the plate tectonics study guide - definitions and certain pictures (words to be written in agenda)
