NOTES
Plate Tectonics Cooperative Learning
Materials: Atlases, encyclopedias, Earth Science books, drawing
paper, markers, scissors, Earth Science articles.
Each group that came into the library was assigned a different
plate to study (e.g.: Juan De Fuca, Nazca, Pacific, Philippine,
Caribbean, South American, Eurasian, African, etc.).
They had to become experts on that plate. They had to produce a
report, a map of the boundaries it covered and a drawing of a plate
(see: Teaching Plate Tectonics withEasy-to-Draw Illustrations on
geology.com).
