Wednesday

Today we put a puzzle together. It was a puzzle of the continents. Alfred Wegener thought perhaps the continents had moved around, and although he was scoffed at in his day, today they realize he may have been correct. We then watched a couple of youtube videos that talked about how plate tectonics may have happened. We also learned about subduction, convergent plates, divergent plates and slip strike faults or transform faults.

The videos we watched are on the links under Plate Tectonics and Plate Tectonics vocabulary.
