What's Driving the Plates? 5E Instructional Model Plan
Resource:
What's Driving the Plates? 5E Instructional Model Plan
While Alfred Wegener produced evidence that the continents are in motion, he could not explain what forces could move them. In this 5E sequence students will explore models of Earth's interior processes in order to gain insight about what might be driving the motion of Earth's plates. Students will be able to explain the role of Earth's internal structure and properties in driving plate motion and crustal relationships.
