Download or read book Plate Tectonics written by Be Naturally Curious and published by Be Naturally Curious. This book was released on 2017-03-04 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What causes earthquakes? How do mountains form? These are some of the most frequent questions curious children ask about the Earth. To understand plate tectonics, it can be helpful to have powerful visuals and fun activities, which is exactly what Plate Tectonics: The Changing Continents provides. Designed for grades K-5 and to be done at home or with small groups, this interactive multi-activity mini-course introduces children to how the shifting pieces of Earth's crust are constantly reshaping our planet. The mini-course includes a richly illustrated story-based lesson as well as games, activities, and projects that incorporate a broad range of teaching styles. Children are introduced to the topic of plate tectonics through a whimsical story, Continent Beehive. Not only do children learn about the various plates and their movement through history, they also learn such important concepts such as transform, divergent, and convergent boundaries between plates. They then solidify their familiarity with the plates in the Plates Puzzle activity, in which children reconstruct their own, beautiful map of fifteen of the largest plates. Once children can visualize the plates, it's time for the Plate Boundaries Game, in which they learn the consequences of different types of plate boundaries. In Hot Spots!, kids will have fun with multiple movement-based activities that demonstrate how hot spots result in volcanoes and islands like Hawaii. Finally, the included Research Journal and Science Trip Planner, guide children to learn about plate boundaries in their own area (or other area of interest.) Most materials needed to complete the mini-course can be cut from the book itself (or, if preferred, downloaded and printed using an included link). The mini-course requires only a few common household items to complete the activities: Crayons or colored pencils, pen or pencil, scissors, clear tape, poster board or butcher paper, red magic marker, large piece of newsprint, blanket or sheet, red construction paper or piece of red clothing, masking tape (optional). Upon completing the mini-course, children will be provided with links to additional online resources and will earn new concept badges for their Science Tool Kit (included in the mini-course)-including Plate Boundaries, Volcano, the Earth's Structure, and Oceanic Trench.

Download or read book Plate Tectonics written by Jason D. Nemeth and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2012-01-15 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around 225 million years ago, Earth was home to the supercontinent Pangaea and the massive sea Panthalassa. In fact, Earths land and water existed in several configurations before todays familiar continents and oceans formed. Readers of this book will get an accessible introduction to plate tectonics. This key scientific theory explains why Earths landmasses have changed over time. The theory posits that the planets crust is broken up into plates that are constantly, if slowly, on the move. The book also examines the impact of plate tectonics on volcanoes, earthquakes, and the formation of mountains and rift valleys.

Download or read book Plate Tectonics written by Julia J. Quinlan and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ground beneath our feet feels sturdy and still, but Earth is actually covered in moving plates. These large plates make up the outer layer of Earth's surface and sit on top of another layer made up of molten rock. Borders between two plates are often the site of earthquakes and volcanoes. The plates can slide against each other, crash into each other, move apart, and even create mountains. There is so much to learn about what's going on beneath the surface, as is provided here for your readers, perfectly encapsulated.

Download or read book Fault Lines Tectonic Plates written by Kathleen M. Reilly and published by Nomad Press. This book was released on 2017-01-16 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ground beneath your feet is solid, right? After all, how could we build houses and bridges on land if it was moving all the time? Actually, the ground beneath us really is moving all the time! In Fault Lines and Tectonic Plates: Discover What Happens When the Earth’s Crust Moves, readers ages 9 through 12 learn what exactly is going on under the dirt. The earth's crust is moving constantly, but usually it’s moving too slowly for us to notice it. In Fault Lines and Tectonic Plates, readers learn about Pangea, the giant landmass that scientists believe existed long ago, and the tectonic plates that Pangea broke into, which we know as continents. And what happens when these slowly drifting continents bump up against each other along fault lines? Earthquakes, volcanoes, and tidal waves! Readers learn the geological reasons behind earthquakes and also practical ways of behaving in those types of natural disasters. In addition to earthquakes, tectonic plates create the landscape of our world over time. Mountains and trenches are the results of the slow movement of the earth’s crust. With science-minded projects such as a homemade earthquake “shake table” and edible tectonic boundaries, the complex and fascinating topic of plate tectonics is made accessible for kids to grasp, helping to raise their awareness about this amazing planet we live on. Links to online primary sources and videos make concepts clear and encourage kids to maintain a healthy curiosity in the topic. Guided reading levels and Lexile measurements place this title with appropriate audiences.
Download or read book Why Do Tectonic Plates Crash and Slip Geology Book for Kids Children s Earth Sciences Books written by Baby Professor and published by Speedy Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tectonic plates are found deep in the Earth but they affect everything on land and sea. When they crash, new mountains are formed. When they slip, valleys are found. And when all these happen, earthquakes would shake cities and towns. Understanding how tectonic plates work would make it easier for children’s knowledge on geology to grow.
Download or read book Investigating Plate Tectonics written by Greg Young and published by Teacher Created Materials. This book was released on 2007-09-21 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live on Earth's crust, but there are other layers beneath the crust. They are the mantle and the outer and inner core. In 1915, scientist Alfred Wegener said that about 200 million years ago, Earth once had a single landmass. Hot, molten magma under the surface of the crust pushed the plates apart at a crack in Earth's crust and, eventually, the landmass was split apart and continents were formed. Wegener's work led to the study of plate tectonics.
