1 Active Earth

2 Plate Tectonics Types of Faults Type answer here Major Geological Events Caused by Moving Plates Other Interesting Facts Some Names Of Earth’s Plates

3 Divergent Faults Describe a divergent faults Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) Give an example where one exists in the world today A picture of a divergent fault

4 Convergent Faults Describe a convergent faults Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) Give an example where one exists in the world today A picture of a convergent fault

5 Transform Faults Describe a Transform fault Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) Give an example where one exists in the world today A picture of a transform fault

6 Earthquake and Volcanoes Characteristics of Volcanoes Characteristics of Earthquakes How they are alike

7 Label the Tectonic Plates as divergent or convergent Drag and drop to label for divergent plates Drag and drop to label for convergent plates

8 Label the longitude and latitude of 20 earthquakes and 20 volcanoes
