Imagine you’re on vacation and taking a
voyage from the space station to the center
of our Earth. Draw a map to explain the
layers you will pass through and what you
might experience or see there.
Target: I can explain the layers of our Earth.
Agenda:
1. Draw a map of your vacation on your flip
paper.
2. Edible Tectonics- model of the layers of
our Earth.

Protects use from external sun and keeps us
warm at night like a blanket.
What is a geyser?
60 seconds calm & ground your mind.

# the answers on your diagram
1. What internal energy
source is responsible for
the convection currents in
the earth’s
asthenosphere?
2. What is the reason for
the seasons on the earth?
3. If the convection
currents in the earth’s
mantle were to stop, how
would the number of
earthquakes and
volcanoes be affected?
4. Why is the temperature
on a cloudless winter night
much colder than if there
were cloud cover?
5. How do surface ocean
currents affect climate?
6. As the wind flows down
the leeward side of the
mountain range, how
would the air be different
that the windward side?
7. In which Earth layer are
most convection currents
that cause seafloor
spreading thought to be
located?
8. How did scientist infer
the outer core is liquid?

activity affect an areas

15. What causes the
magma inside a volcano to
rise toward the surface?
16. How is the Earth’s
surface changing over
time?
Online text book video and poster
17. “Hot spots” are formed
when tectonic plates move
over a source of magma
away from the edges of
plate boundaries. Explain
how this can form an
island chain and the
relative age of the islands.
Online text book video and poster
18. New mountains can be
formed when land masses
are being pushed together
due to plate tectonics, and
also from volcanic activity.
Mount Everest and the
rest of the Himalayas
make up a relatively young
mountain chain between
Asia and India. What may
be inferred about the
relative motion of India
and Asia?

Bell Ringer:
Challenge to get the ping pong ball from one beaker
to another without physically touching it or the
glasses or the tray.
NO Touching!
Brainstorm with your team
and keep trying until everyone succeeds!
Rotate from table to table and read the different
natural disaster poster. Wait till I say rotate please.
Check out the National Geographic poster!
Choose a partner if you want one.
Breath for 60
Really relax!!
Bell Ringer
Sit at the table with the natural
disaster you want to research
Read the questions to research
and the info there to get started.
_____________ Natural Disaster
Name___________
(Topic)
Type of Product(s) _________________
___________________
1. How does the disaster occur?
Scientifically explain conditions for and the steps of how the
disaster occurs.*Focus especially on the Laws of Thermodynamics:
Entropy: chaos in change of temperature and pressure in order to
reach a balance. Use yesterday’s notes!!!
Attach your answer to this sheet!
2. How does this event change the Earth? Case and effect
3. Warning signs4. How to prepare to prevent damages and injuries?
Survival Kit should contain: _________
Bonus if you make one for your home!
5. List what you should and should NOT do during the event.
6. What Scale of the intensity or severity of the event is
used? How do they rank it as a disaster and not just a storm?
7. Where in the world do they most often occur?
Make a key and record on the maps.
KEY:
**Mark a recent event. Mark the worst recorded
8. Bibliography: Where you got information.

something to show they understand or do
something to find the answer!
If edible bring napkins and make sure each part is
labeled with little flags on toothpicks or something.

Examples:
Ask questions after the explanation of the model or
power point and they are asked to stand if they
chose choose true and put their heads down if they
chose false. They could win a prize for the correct
explanation or get part of the edible model when a
correct response is given. If a poster it needs to
have moving parts or flaps they rise like we made in
class. Save a like in your presentation to a
simulation or short video clip or use our
