Common Core Standards

Assessed:
2.1l The lithosphere consists of separate plates that ride on the more fluid asthenosphere and move slowly in relationship to one another, creating convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries. These motions indicate Earth is a dynamic geologic system. These plate boundaries are the sites of most earthquakes, volcanoes, and young mountain ranges. 2.1o Plate motions have resulted in global changes in geography, climate, and the patterns of organic evolution. 2.1r Climate variations, structure, and characteristics of bedrock influence the development of landscape features including mountains, plateaus, plains, valleys, ridges, escarpments, and stream drainage patterns.

Interdisciplinary Connections

Geography: The geography of the world has changed over millions of years due to plate tectonics.

21st Century Skills

Information Literacy: The students will need to evaluate the information given to them on the chart. They will interpret this information in order to graph.

Lesson Objectives 1. Students will be able to construct a graph using a data chart.
Label : (Blooms Taxonomy)

2. Students will be able to infer from a graph the age of an island.

Must be numbered

Acceptable Evidence
*Could be collected for accountability and/or auditing purposes.

1. Lab hand-in 2. Lab hand-in

Procedure Teacher input, development, instructional method(s), modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and/or activities

The students will grab their lab books when they walk in. The teacher will ask them to silently read the lab introduction and fill in as many vocabulary words as possible. The teacher will go over the vocabulary, making sure that every student has each word. Random students will be asked to give their definitions for vocabulary and then the teacher will have the definitions up on the board for the other students.

Label: Bell Ringer Also may be called:

The teacher will briefly explain the lab procedure. The students will be using a data chart to create a graph of the Hawaiian Islands and their age as compared to their latitude. They will then infer from this graph the age of a separate island. The students will then use the same data chart to map the islands and their ages. They will use this map and key to determine distances from one island to the next. The students should answer the questions when they have completed both procedure A and B. If there is time left, the class will go over the questions as a group.

Assessment/ Evaluation
Label formative or summative, describe purpose, and provide grading/feedback method.

1. Lab activity (formative)- This lab will be collected, and verbal feedback will be given while the students are doing the lab. Verbal feedback will also be given on the actual lab hand-in.

Technology PowerPoint-notes on the board otherwise

Describe type and purpose. Include a back-up plan.

Academic Language required for the lesson Accommodations, Student Supports, and/or Interactions with Co-Teachers

Students will learn about the different crustal activity that occurs where the tectonic plates meet. Any necessary adaptations for students will be made and noted.
