Unit/Lesson Title/Number: Dynamic Crust Earthquakes Lesson #8 Context and Class Profile Thirteen freshmen students (8 female and 5 male). One student with IEP (non-verbal learning disability), one student with 504 plan, two students in AIS.

Common Core Standards

Assessed:
2.1l The lithosphere consists of separate plates that ride on the more fluid asthenosphere and move slowly in relationship to one another, creating convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries. These motions indicate Earth is a dynamic geologic system. These plate boundaries are the sites of most earthquakes, volcanoes, and young mountain ranges. 2.1o Plate motions have resulted in global changes in geography, climate, and the patterns of organic evolution.

Interdisciplinary Connections

Geography: The students will learn that geography changes based on the movement on tectonic plates.

21st Century Skills Lesson Objectives

Label : (Blooms Taxonomy)

1. Students will be able to differentiate between the types of faults that produce earthquakes.

Acceptable Evidence
*Could be collected for accountability and/or auditing purposes.

1. Dynamic Crust Packet

Procedure Teacher input, development, instructional method(s), modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and/or activities Label: Bell Ringer Also may be called: set induction, anticipatory set, introduction/review, Do Now, Write Now, Silent Starter Label: Transitions

***These plans are modified from the day before because the teacher was absent and I didnt want this class to get ahead. There will be a bell ringer on the board as the students walk in. The students should grab their notebooks and answer the bell ringer as the teacher hands back any materials that need handed back. The teacher will ask students to answer the bell ringer. The class will discuss. The teacher will ask the students to take out the article and questions that were due for homework. The teacher will check to make sure that the students have their work done. (2/11/14) The class will discuss the answers to these questions. (2/11/14)

Label: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic Accommodations for learning modalities Label: Checks for Understanding: directions, procedures/routines, and/or content (formative) Label: Evidence of Cognitive Student Engagement (CSE) Label: Closure

The class will go over the questions on page 14 and 15 of the Dynamic Crust Packet The notes for earthquakes will be started. This will be a multi-day lesson, so the class will only cover a few pages. The students should be interacting during the lesson and not simply taking notes. Any remaining time in the class period will be given to the students to begin the homework.

Assessment/ Evaluation
Label formative or summative, describe purpose, and provide grading/feedback method.

The teacher will be assessing the students through observation for this lesson.

Technology
Describe type and purpose. Include a back-up plan.

Academic Language required for the lesson Accommodations, Student Supports, and/or Interactions with Co-Teachers and/or Support Staff

Convergent, divergent, and transform plate boundaries

Resources/ Materials Time Required

Notebooks, Dynamic Crust packets

1 class period, 38 minutes
