No school teacher plan day
16. - investigate the
composition and
formation of Earth's
surface (GPS, ITBS)
17a. - demonstrate how
the deformation (e.g.,
tension, compression
and shearing) of the
Earth’s plates produces
landforms

processes that produce
volcanoes and
earthquakes
17b4. - analyze the
relationship between
volcanoes and
earthquakes

Teacher will show
BrainPop video on
Volcanos or additional
clips of volcanic
activity at teacher
discretion. Teacher
will ask students about
their prior knowledge
of Pompeii from LA
class. Teacher will
read excerpts from
story to encourage
inquiry into Volcanos.
Teacher will display
Google Earth visual

lines and
earthquakes. Teacher
will show students
different real time
seismic activity.
Using the program
teacher will explore
various parts of the
world based on
teacher discretion.
Selected students will
present essay about
