Knowledge check! - So, what does 8850 refer to then? What are we going to be learning about? Any ideas?

Starter: Check out one or both of the following videos - a really amazing time lapse short film.

Task 1 - Everest Feelings Write down ten adjectives that you would use to describe Mount Everest from what you have seen in the video. Five must be under the title of 'Dangerous Everest' and the other five under the title of 'Incredible Everest'. The music to the right should help to inspire FK3UPCS8M0U. FK3UPCS8M0U.

Task 2 - A 60 Year Anniversary 2013 was an important year for Mount Everest. i. Wind the clock back 60 years from 2013, what year would you be in? ii. Conduct a quick Google search with that year and 'Mount Everest' and find out why and what happened back then.

Mo Nearly 60 years to the day after the first ascent up Mount Everest, Russian extreme sport star Valery Rozov (48) flew off the north face of Mount Everest - the world's highest BASE jump ever meters (23,688ft) above sea level.

mDYho mDYho 1953 was a big year for Mount Everest. After 50 million years on its own and left alone, at 11.30am on 28th May, two now famous explorers reached the summit of the highest land on earth.

Objective: To find out about the conditions that surround the highest mountain in the world. Using both the fact sheet and the map create your own annotated 'Where is Everest & What's it Like' fact sheet. You should include the location of Everest as well as your chosen 10 facts.

Objective: To find out how and when Mount Everest (a Fold Mountain) was formed and to see if it is getting taller. Task 1 - Watch the YouTube video. This is a documentary but you only need to watch up to You might find it helpful to make some notes on what you see and hear. i. What are the three main layers of rock called that are found on Mount Everest? ii. What were the risks in collecting the samples? iii. What evidence exists to prove that this rock was formed under the oceans?

The climber you will see in the video is called Kenton Cool and he holds several Everest records including the one below where he sent the first ever tweet from the summit of Everest.

EVEREST - 50 MILLION YEARS IN THE MAKING. Draw a 4-8 stage cartoon to explain how plate tectonics formed Everest

Pangea

Convection currents

The making of Everest Indo-Australian plate began moving northwards. About 50 million years ago, the Indian continent (carried by the Indo- Australian plate) started to collide with Eurasia. This began to squash and thicken the edges of the plates and the result of this cataclysmic collision was the buckling up of the land to form the Himalaya. This vast mountain range stretches approximately 2,414 km (1,500 miles) and is home to the world’s highest mountains.
