Lesson 1 Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Plate Tectonics Time Frame: Two to three periods I. Objectives At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to: 1. discuss the tectonic activities that happen at plate boundaries; 2. discuss some consequences of having the Philippines in a tectonically active zone; 3. explain why the Philippines experiences many earthquakes; and 4. explain why the Philippines has many volcanoes. II. Subject Matter A. Topic: Earthquakes, Volcanoes

Density, Gravity, Color, Luster, Streak, Cleavage and Crystal Shape We classify rocks into three major groups: igneous rock, sedimentary rock, and metamorphic rock Chapter 3 What happens to each Plate Boundaries? What geologic process? (Earthquake, volcano, Tsunami) Divergent plate boundary: Lithospheric plates move apart, subject to tensional stress. Many volcanic activity and earthquakes occurs at divergent plate boundaries. Convergent Plate Boundaries: Plates are moving toward each other, subjecting

Meow and Wolverine War On a night like any other night, work seemed the same I went to work as a maid to the houses near the volcano. I travel down the side of the street because I don’t have a car I lost it in the divorce with my ex-husband.

Sukiyaki Steak. My three hundred guests, including the Mayor of Baltimore, cheer me on as I flip my cooking utensils ten feet in the air, dicing fresh vegetables, and balancing myself on a unicycle. I move onto the grand finale where I perform the “Volcano Onion Trick” and the crowd erupts into a vibrant applause. At the end of the night, the mayor approaches me to personally congratulate me on my spectacular performance. He tells me that he recorded the entire performance, and wants to upload it onto

conditions and lacking of food. Scientists found that because of the sea level was at really low, people from Yemen and Africa could be able to walk across the sea and moved to the new continent. At there, they had to faced with natural disasters such as volcano, earthquake, new animal attacked like snake cobra, they had developed the new ways to survive by catching fish at the ocean. By living at the sea and due to the growing of population, the second immigration was made by across to Malaysia and Australia

The Panama Canal At the time Theodore Roosevelt was president made a very big and wise decision. Roosevelt really believed that he could expand and make America more powerful throughout the world, So for him to actually make America a more dominant country he thought he needed a strong navy. He wanted his navy to be sailing quick through the pacific and atlantic ocean. Roosevelt went on to think of what is called now the panama canal which connects the two oceans together. Without this water

Chapter 12 Earth’s radius is 6,499km Core: spherical central mass of the earth composed largely of iron and consisting of an outer liquid zone and an interior solid zone. Radius = 3,500km. Core temp. =3,000 degrees -5,000 degrees Celsius. Mantle: rock layer or shell of the earth beneath the crust and surrounding the core, composed of ultramafic igneous rock of silicate mineral composition. About 2,900km thick. Temp.’s range from 2,800 near the core to 1,800 degrees near crust. Crust:

Due date: ___________________ Name ___________________________________________ Plate Tectonics Exercise (20 points) PLATE BOUNDARIES There are three different types of lithosphere plate boundaries associated with different types of topographic features and tectonic activity. These are: Divergent boundaries (also called “spreading centers). At divergent boundaries, plates are moving apart. The most common kind of spreading center is the midocean ridge where new ocean floor is created. Spreading

Physics Project Earthquake Report Earthquakes are vibrations produced in the earth's outer layer, or crust, when forces pushing on a mass of rock overcome the friction holding the rock in place and blocks of rock slip against each other. The vibrations can range from barely noticeable to very destructive. There are 6 types of shock waves. Two are classified as body waves which means they travel through the earth's interior and the other four

A primal lake of lava flows into the steaming sea. An indigo seascape stretches along the golden Kohala coastline. Clouds surround the snow-covered summit of the tallest sea mountain on Earth. Needless to say, a visit to Hawaii's Big Island can be a humbling experience, and Hawaii accommodation opens a world of fascination! To avoid confusion with the name of the entire state, the island of Hawaii is called "Hawaii's Big Island," and what an appropriate name it is. Bigger than all of the other Hawaiian
