1 Warm Up – Plate Tectonics: Day 4 & 5

2 Draw this picture in your journal Can you identify the boundary
Draw this picture in your journal  Can you identify the boundary?  Can you identify the plates?

3 CONVERGENT DAY Converge – Collide.  Moving together.

4 We are studying Plate Tectonics.
The earth is covered with a layer called the Lithosphere.   The lithosphere is broken into pieces called plates. The plates move. The edges of the plates are called boundaries.

5 These are the questions you will answer in each the boxes
 These are the questions you will answer in each the boxes.  Answers are shown on the following slides. 7.  TYPE OF BOUNDARY 8.  Motion at Boundary.  What kinds of plates move? 9.  Motion at Boundary.   What happens to the plates? 10.  Land Feature formed.  What is made here? 11.  Land Feature Formed.  What else is made here? 12.  Actual examples.  Where is this located in          the Real world         What is the name of the example?

6 As you click through these slides, please read them
As you click through these slides, please read them.  Look at the pictures.  Try to understand the pictures and information about a convergent boundary.

7 7. Type of Boundary: Convergent Boundary ocean – ocean with Subduction
Examples:

8 Draw this diagram of ocean to ocean crust second box down on left (cross-section view)

9 Type of Boundary: 7. Convergent Boundary
Oceanic crust / oceanic crust 

10 Motion at Boundary: Convergent Boundary ocean/ocean with Subduction
8.  The plates move toward each other - Collide AND 9.  The older more dense ocean crust subducts (sinks) or goes down below the other less dense crust

11 Convergent Boundary with ocean crust and ocean crust
10.  when 1 subducts, This land feature Forms: TRENCH

12 Convergent Boundary with ocean crust and ocean crust
11.  When 1 plate subducts, the    Land feature formed is an     Island volcano arc (a curved line Volcanic islands)

13 12. Real world Example of Island Arcs: The Aleutian Islands and Japan
12. Real world Example of trenches:  Marianas Trench, Peru-Chile Trench

14 13. Type of Boundary: Convergent (ocean crust and continental crust)
These are the questions you will answer in each the boxes.  Answers are shown on the following slides. 13.   Type of Boundary:  Convergent   (ocean crust and continental crust) 14.  Motion at boundary....  What kinds of plates move?  15.  Motion at boundary...  What happens at the 2 plates? 16.  Land Feature Formed...What is made here? 17.  Land Feature Formed....What else is made here? 18.  Actual Examples... Where are these boundaries in the Real world?          What is the name of this example?

15 As you click through these slides, please read them
As you click through these slides, please read them.  Look at the pictures.  Try to understand the pictures and information about a convergent boundary.

16 Draw this in the diagram box (3rd box down on left  (cross-section view)

17 13.   Type of Boundary:   Convergent  with subduction (continental and ocean crust)

18 Motion at Boundary: Convergent Boundary ocean/ocean with Subduction
14. The plates move toward each other - Collide AND 15. The more dense ocean crust subducts (sinks) under the less dense continental crust

19 Convergent boundary with subduction. Ocean crust and continental crust
Convergent boundary with subduction.  Ocean crust and continental crust.  The more dense plate subducts.  What do you see forming? .

20 16. The land feature formed at the subduction zone is a trench

21 17.   When the more dense plate subducts and reaches asthenosphere it begins to melt into magma. It will eventually build up  pressure, until it forms a volcanic mountain range. . Plate melts  into magma

22 18. Real world Example of volcanic mountain ranges with a trench
Cascade Mountains – Oregon & Washington Andes Mountain Range, South America 18. Real world Example of volcanic mountain ranges with a trench

23 Convergent Collision

24 Coming together – colliding
19 & 20.  moving toward - colliding

25 Convergent Boundary 21.  continent crust / continent crust convergent = Collides and builds mountains / uplift.  The crust lifts up. 22.  Himalayan Mountains

26 21.

28 Edusmart notes – Convergent
What is a convergent boundary? Draw a picture of what that looks like. What types of landforms are created by movement of convergent plates (3)? What are the highest mountain ranges called? What happens when an oceanic plate converges with a continental plate? Where do most volcanoes form? Where do you find a lot of subduction zones? What is the Ring of Fire? Where is it located? Where is the deepest point on the planet? (click on more info) What is the world’s largest active volcano? *Click on Edusmart (desktop) *Click on Effects of Plate Tectonics *Click on Convergent Plate Boundaries
