I. Essential Ideas
According to thePLATE TECTONIC THEORY, the lithosphere is composed of many independent
massive slabs of solid rocks called plates. These plates are of two types: continental plates and oceanic
plates.

II. Learning Experiences

A. Clarifying Understanding
Directions: Identify continental and oceanic plates. Write your answers on the table below.

CONTINENTAL PLATES OCEANIC PLATES

B. Processing Questions

1. How do continental and oceanic plates differ from each other?

2. How does the movement of plates support the theory?

C. Lifelong Learning
Direction: Choose one (1) and reflect.

1. Changes constantly happen in the lithosphere. The theory of plate tectonics says that the Earth’s
crust is broken up into several landmasses. As time passed by, our environment also changes.
How can you help protect the environment with the changes that occur in it?
 2. “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ. He is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the
new has come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17. If ever given the chance to recreate your yourself, how are
you going to do it?
