1 Aim: What did the earth look like 220 Million Years Ago (220 MYA)? Do Now: What do you know about plate tectonics and continental drift? H/W: Write a paragraph summarizing the evidence you learned today. Note: Second Extra Credit Due Tuesday, Oct. 31. (First is due Monday, Oct. 30.) It is found on the Google Classroom - Class Code: 4ky4y8m If you need internet access, Dr. Utz can arrange for you to have it after school or during lunch.
2 Lots of people were involved in figuring out that the continents had to be together in Pangaea, not just Alfred Wegener. Tell a story about a few scientists so that you can: Get a feeling what was happening at the time Learn about a few of the scientists
3 ` #8 - Respectful. Why do you think kids said, disciplined? #23 - Coal is organic so it s not a mineral #24 - D - all of the above Second Extra Credit Due Tuesday, Oct. 31. It is found on the Google Classroom - Class COde: 4ky4y8m

19 Harry Hammond Hess Born in NYC in Became a member of the US Naval Reserve People who learn and practice being in the Navy so they can join the Navy full-time, on active duty, for short assignments or learn-term assignments in times of war For the first two years of WWII, he was assigned to protect the NYC area from German submarines, which he did
20 Henry Hammond Hess During WWII, he was assigned to a troop transport ship, which carried troops (US Marines) to different places to battle the Japanese as well as move other military men around. He participated in major battles including Iwo Jima Leyte Marianas He had a sonar system which he used to map the bottom of the sea in the North Pacific Ocean - he didn t follow his orders exactly in moving his troops around so he could get data
21 Henry Hammond Hess After the war, he remained in the US Naval Reserves. He advised Pres. Kennedy during the Cuban missile crisis Helped with the USS Thresher investigation USS Pueblo Incident

83 I can explain what causes volcanoes
84 I can explain what causes volcanoes Divergent boundaries - sea-floor spreading & continental rifts- new plate is made when the magma comes up to the surface, also causing volcanoes Convergent boundaries - when subduction occurs, carbon dioxide, water (which turns to steam), sulfur dioxide and other gases cause magma to rise to the surface Hot spots - areas where there are a lot of volcanoes away from boundaries. This may be caused by a rising mantle plume that gets lots of heat energy from the core or some other cause.
