Plate Tectonics: Short Writing Expectations The writing is worth 100 points, and should include the following: Explain theory of plate
tectonics 0/25 points (What is the theory and how do the plates move?) Identify evidence of plate movements 0/25 points (Use
pages 5-7 of the continental drift notes) Explain different plate boundaries Divergent
, convergent, and transform, and explain what
happens at each of these boundaries. 13/25 points (You use words like collision, but never use the words divergent, convergent, or
transform) Grammar and mechanics 5/25 points (Inconsistent use of a capital letter at the start of the sentence. No periods at the
end of sentences. Lots of spelling errors) 28/100 points Student response: When tectonic plates collide can form mountians ranges
or large mountians, for example the hilmayes is formed from the collision of two plate on the other hand when there is subduction
(an oceanic plate sinks under the continenal plate) mountianous systeam are also formed the lower plate melt and generate volcanic
eruption such as those that formed some of the Andes mountians in south american finnaly deep depersion such as the great rift
valley are formed on land where plates are seperated
Prompt
Explain the theory of plate tectonics and how they have changed Earth's surface over time. Include the role of plate tectonics
in the creation of landforms.
