convection current.
Duration
Topic: Plate Tectonic Theory and Convection Current

Needed

PROCEDURE:
Element of
the Plan

Awareness What facilitates the movement of the plates?

Video clip presentation. Answer the guide questions: How does the food coloring
Activity
behave?
What do you call this behavior?

.What causes tectonic plates to move? Enumerate the factors that cause tectonic
Analysis plates to move.

As a substance like water is heated, the less dense particles rise while denser
Abstraction particles sink. Once the hot less dense particles cool down, they sink, and the other
less dense particles rise. This continuous process is called convection current.

Application Illustrate your observations referring to Figure 16 on page 72, Science 10 LM.

Assessment How can we to contribute meaningfully in minimizing the damage that these
phenomena?

Assignment Prepare for a film viewing of Pacific Ring of Fire.
