Structure of the Earth Teacher Guide

By Oliver Smith

The layers beneath the Earth's surface all vary, each with its own properties. As students learn about the layers of the Earth, they'll be able to understand how things like volcanoes are formed and have a solid foundation for other Earth sciences!

Storyboard Description

Transform Boundary, Convergent Boundary, Divergent Boundary

Storyboard Text

  • TRANSFORM BOUNDARY
  • Plates do not move closer together or further apart, but slide past each other.
  • DIVERGENT BOUNDARY
  • The plates move away from each other and new lithosphere is produced.
  • CONVERGENT BOUNDARY
  • The plates move towards each other and the denser plan moves under the less dense plate.
