 * 1) Do Now: Based on your experiences, how far have humans travelled or journeyed into the Earth? Is it possible to journey to the center of the Earth? Justify your response with specific sources from which your developed your answers.
 * 2) Open your lesson plan, read and record your first three learning objectives:
 * 3) [[file:Science Lesson March 2010.pdf]]
 * 4) Open the powerpoint presentation and complete section 1 only. To complete this section of the powerpoint, you must interact with it. There will be questions embedded in the presentation that you must answer and record in your notebook (Important:Make sure you view the powerpoint in "slide show view"!)
 * 5) [[file:Updated Plate Tectonics.ppt]]
 * 6) Then open a second window or tab and go to your online textbook, Inside the Restless Earth @ [|Holt Online Learning] or your paper copy to chapter 4
 * 7) Skim and scan Chapter 4, Section 1, Pages 96 to 99
 * 8) Then complete the first "Interior of the Earth" Graphic Organizer (You may also refer back to the powerpoint presentation for assistance):
 * 9) [[file:Interior of the Earth Template.pdf]]
 * 10) Then, once again, skim and Scan Chapter 4, Section 1, Pages 96 to 99
 * 11) Then complete the second "Interior of the Earth" Graphic Organizer (Hint: Use your first graphic organizer as a guide):
 * 12) [[file:Interior of the Earth Template (clues).pdf]]
 * 13) After completing the two graphic organizers, be prepared to either explain one of the concepts you learned or identify a concept that you don't fully understand
 * 14) Explore the concept of plate tectonics by completing an inforamtional scavenger hunt. View the multi media presentations and animations at the ATEP webiste @ [|Plate Tectonics Animations- Scavenger Hunt]and complete the scavenger hunt handout:
 * 15) [[file:Plate Tectonics Scavenger Hunt.pdf]]
 * 16) Homework: Create a 3-dimensional model or colorful poster of the Earth by its physical structure
 * 17) All five layers must be labelled correctly
 * 18) All five layers must include two facts each


 * Do not go below this line: under construction
