1st QUARTER
COURSE OUTLINE IN SCIENCE 10
WEEK LEARNING GUIDE LEARNING OUTCOME/S ACTIVITY GUIDE ASSIGNMENT GUIDE

1.Plate Tectonics
1-2 a. Explain the process of the motion of
the tectonic plates.
b. Recognize and assemble the
continents of the supercontinent,
Pangea.
c. Understand the importance of
convection currents.
d. Explain the significance of
convection currents and plate
tectonics.
The learners should be able to…
1. Demonstrate ways to ensure
disaster preparedness during
earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic
eruptions
2. Suggest ways by which he/she
can contribute to government
efforts in reducing damage due to
earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic use them to analyze and interpret
eruptions
In your notebook describe the
distribution of active volcanoes,
earthquake epicenters, and major
mountain belts
Analyzing and Interpreting Data
Developing and Using Models
Students create and test models
of tectonic plate movement and
features on a map of Earth
Read your science 10
book and research on the
relationship among the
locations of volcanoes,
earthquake epicenters,
and mountain ranges

2. Distribution Patterns Stability and Change The Role of Plate

* volcanoes 3. Demonstrate a knowledge and Tectonics
* earthquake epicenters understanding of the theory of By interacting with the models,
* mountain ranges tectonic plates and the different students observe that although Review the overall
3-4 forms of evidence (e.g.
a. Understand what volcanoes continental features appear activity, what role does
 are, how they form, and the
rocks they create
b. Create a notebook of volcano
characteristics
c. Use acquired knowledge to
identify several types of
modern volcanic eruptions
around the world
3. Plate boundaries
a. Sketch a cross section of a
5-6
lithosphere plate that shows its types of plate boundary
variation in thickness and its
relationship to the crust and the conservative) and how they interact
asthenosphere.
b. Explain why plates move and
how to determine the rate of
plate motion.
c. Use a map showing the
distribution of earthquakes to
locate plate boundaries and
identify continental margins
that are not plate boundaries.
paleontology, paleomagnetism,
continuity of structures etc.) that
can be used to understand the
movement of the lithospheric plates
over geological time
4. Demonstrate a knowledge and
understanding of the mechanisms
of crustal growth and transfer of
heat at spreading ocean ridges
5. Demonstrate a knowledge and
understanding of the three main
(constructive, destructive and
at triple junctions
6. Demonstrate a knowledge and
understanding of the difference
between relative and true plate
motion
stable, Earth's features are
created by changes in plate
movement.

Plate Tectonics Cornell
Notes
Essential Question: How
can we predict and
understand changes to
Earth’s surface?
How might the
landmasses and the
oceans be different on
Earth in 5 million years?
Learning Goal: I should
be able to analyze the
scientific theory of plate
tectonics and identify

5. Internal structure of the Earth
6. Mechanism (possible causes of
7- 9
movement)
7. Evidence of plate movement
a. Explain the relationship
between theories of continental
drift and plate tectonics.
b. Define Pangaea.
c. Describe these lines of
evidence offered by Alfred
Wegener to support his
continental drift hypothesis:
o Fit of continents
o Paleozoic glaciation
pattern
7. Demonstrate a knowledge and
understanding of the driving and
retarding forces that influence plate
motion at constructive, destructive
and conservative plate boundaries.
8. Describe the different types of
plate boundaries
Follow the directions on Making
a Mobile to make a three-
dimensional, scale model of the
layers of the earth.
Use Earth as an Egg to
demonstrate a model of the earth
and its
moving plates
Research and discuss how the
landmasses of the earth might
look
millions of years in the future
and compare the class
projections
to actual geologic forecasts.
related major processes
and features as a result of
moving plates.
Online research, guided
by Seismic Picture of the
Hidden
Earth, to illustrate a
model of the earth’s
interior structure in your
notebook.
Online research to gather
facts about plate
tectonics, the theory, its
history and the evidence.
 o Fossil distribution

d. Describe the role of the mid-

ocean ridge and trench in sea
floor spreading.
e. Explain the stripes of
magnetism on the seafloor.
f. Identify what part of the earth
makes up the plate.
