I. TOPIC: PLATE BOUNDARIES

Learning Competency: Describe the different types of plate boundaries. (S10ES-IA-j-36.2)
II. OBJECTIVES
 Describe each type of plate boundaries
 Illustrate the different type of plate boundaries.
 Provide examples of different type of plate boundaries
III. INTRODUCTION
The movement of Earth’s tectonic plates cause them to interact in a number of ways forming
different plate boundaries. These plate boundaries separated the different plates and formed the various
landscapes on Earth’s crust.
IV. TEXT DISCUSSION/ACTIVITY (BODY)
There’s have a three types of plate boundaries; (a) Divergent boundaries, where new crust is generated as the
plates pull away or separates from each other, commonly resulted in the formation of mid-ocean ridge and rift valleys;
(b) Convergent boundaries, where crusts come together, one crust is destroyed as it dives under another, process
known as subduction, commonly resulted in the formation of trenches, mountain ranges, and volcanoes; (c) Transform
boundary, where crust is neither produced nor destroyed as the plates slide horizontally past each other which
commonly resulted in the formation of faults and earthquakes.
