PERFORMANCE TASK #7: (SUBMISSION DATE: OCTOBER 24, 2022- MONDAY)

Drift and Split!

Objective: Illustrate the causes of plate movement based on Continental Drift Theory and Seafloor
Spreading Theory.
Materials: photocopy of seven continents (2 copies) (see Figure 8), scissors, and paste.

Figure 8: Seven continents

Procedure:

1. Photocopy the seven continents above (figure 8).

2. Cut carefully the edge of the seven continents. CAUTION: Be careful when using your scissors.

Figure 9: PANGAEA

Figure 10: World Map

3. Using the picture of PANGAEA above, place the cut out together in the first box then fit the edges of the
continents side by side. Put the second copy of the continents in the second box using the World Map above to
guide you about the present location of the continents
 A. Position of continents during PANGAEA B. Position of continents in the World Map

3. For the Seafloor Spreading Theory, use the simulation done in activity 1, and answer guide questions.

Guide questions:

1. Why do you think the position of the continents during PANGAEA and the present position in the World
Map is not the same?
2. Explain how seafloor spreading is involved in the plate movement.

PERFORMANCE TASK #6: (SUBMISSION DATE: OCTOBER 24, 2022- MONDAY)

” Geologic Processes”
Objectives: Explain the different geological processes along plate boundaries and prepare a presentation (either
multimedia or album) on different geologic processes that occur along the plate boundaries.
Procedure:
1. Study the illustration below and label using the following symbols based on the three types of boundaries: (
→ ← ) Convergent, ( ← → ) Divergent, ( ↑↓ ) Transform. Then, answer the guide questions below.
