DISCUSSING WEGENER'S THEORY

Today we are going to go back to two assignments and check your answers:

W34.2 Earth's Outer Layer
Wegener's Scientific Revolution

W34.2 Modeling Earth's Outer Layer

In assignment W34.2 Modeling Earth's Outer Layer, you were asked to draw over the parts of Earth that are hard, solid rock. What did your map look like?

Let's take a moment to investigate Earth's Outer Layer by looking at some evidence:

Cross-sections of Earth. How might this support your shading or change your mind?

As this video plays, think about your map. Does this video support your map shading or does it change your mind?

As this video plays, think about your map. Does this video support your map shading or does it change your mind?

Go back to W34.2 if you think you need to change your answer.

Wegener's Scientific Revolution

Look back at Wegener Revolution Clue Cards and your notes. If you did not get a chance to finish last time, make sure you take the time to complete and resubmit.
