2 Independent Learning

3

4 Learning Activities: 1.Read the lesson materials before attending the lessons. 2.Attended the lessons. 3.Reviewed the lesson materials after the lessons and determined whether the learning outcomes have been met. 4.Answered the lesson questions. 5.Completed exam questions. 6.Made notes or read additional material to clarify understanding or extend learning. Each Week: 1.YES or NO if learning activity completed or not. 2.0 – 5 to show how much you feel you have learnt for that week. 3.Maintain your file as evidence of the learning activities, including notes, answers to set questions, independent learning tasks and any additional reading Take Charge of Your Learning YES 4 By using this sheet every week!

6 Temperature Variation within Earth’s Interior Depth (km) Temperature (°C) Inner Core (solid) Outer Core (liquid) Asthenosphere (semi-solid) Mesosphere (solid)

7 Temperature Variation within Earth’s Interior Geotherm Melting curve Depth (km) Temperature (°C) Inner Core (solid) Outer Core (liquid) Lithosphere (solid) Asthenosphere (semi-solid) Mesosphere (solid) Where does this heat come from? Radiogenic heat Primordial heat
