-Pangea Puzzle -Video: Continents Adrift -Plate Tectonics Webquest

TEKS

8.9

(A) Describe the historical development of evidence that supports plate tectonic theory

ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:

-What was the early theory of continental drift; who developed it, and when was it developed?

-What were the discoveries that led to a theory of plate tectonics, and when were these discoveries made?

DAILY OBJECTIVES:

Students will describe the historical development of evidence that supports plate tectonic theory and relate plate tectonics to the formation of crustal features.

Pangea Puzzle
