SC.7.E.6.5: Explore the scientific theory of plate tectonics by describing how the movement of Earth's crustal plates causes both slow and rapid changes in Earth's surface, including volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and mountain building. (Level 2: Basic Application of Skills & Concepts) Research the movement of Earth’s plates at convergent, divergent and transform boundaries and relate that movement to surface and subsurface structures and geologic events. Create an interactive model of the movement of Earth’s plates that illustrates the structures that result from the movement of the plates. Create a booklet that illustrates the type of plate boundary and the structures and geologic events that are associated with the movement of the plates at a specific type of plate boundary. SC.7.P.10.1: Illustrate that the sun's energy arrives as radiation with a wide range of wavelengths, including infrared, visible, and ultraviolet, and that white light is made up of a spectrum of many different colors. (Level 1: Recall) Analyze the types of electromagnetic waves, their wavelengths and frequencies as they transport energy from the Sun to Earth Using a graphic organizer, compare and contrast the wavelengths and other characteristics of the different types of radiation that comes from the Sun’s energy. Create a foldable that describes each type of radiation that is found in energy from the sun. SC.7.P.10.3Recognize that light waves, sound waves, and other waves move at different speeds in different materials. (Level 1: Recall) Design an experiment to quantify the effect of various media on the speed of waves and predict results using an understanding of the relationship between wave speed and media. Create a diagram that displays the changes in speed of waves as each type of wave travels through different media. Describe how the electromagnetic waves, sound waves, and other waves travel at different speeds in different media using everyday examples.
