2. Watch the following video

3. The location of plate boundaries and their associated features
Objectives
Understand where the Earth’s plates are
Understand the link between plate margins and the location of fold mountains, earthquakes and volcanoes.
Outcomes
A completed world map with the locations of earthquakes, volcanoes and fold mountains on.
A completed paragraph explaining the link between plate margins and Earthquakes, volcanoes and fold mountains

4. The location of plate boundaries and their associated features
On the plate boundary map add all of the earthquakes, volcanoes, fold mountains and trenches
Complete the comparison exercise using the table on the sheet provided
Use knowledge from the video to say why the location of earthquakes and volcanoes coincides with major plate boundaries.

9. Surface features found along different plate margins.
Along Constructive plate margins the plates are moving apart. Here we get such features as…….but we don’t find any……..
A good example of a constructive plate margin is the Mid Atlantic Ridge, where the…..plate is moving…….from the …….plate
Repeat for destructive, collisional and conservative

10. Tectonic Raving

11. Home work
Describe the key features associated with CONSTRUCTIVE plate margins and explain why volcanoes occur on those margins (8)
