Today in class we are starting by working together again in the IT. Chapter 13 sections 1 and 2 should be complete by Wednesday (these were part of your station work).
After our IT work, we worked in groups to start our ocean floor activity. This will be due at the end of class tomorrow. Be sure to include the following:
- Continental margin (this contains the next three items)
- Continental shelf
- Continental slope
- Continental rise
- Ocean trench
- Abyssal plain
- Mid Ocean Ridge
- Rift Valley
Create flags using toothpicks and paper/notecards with the following information:
- Name of feature
- Description of feature (how does it look)
- Where in the ocean the feature is found
- How the feature is formed
Groups will also submit a chart with the same information that is found on the flags. One per group.
Groups are being provided a paper plate, two packs of clay, and nine toothpicks for flags. Groups are welcome to bring additional supplies but it is not necessary.
