Students investigate tectonic plates.  In this geology and geography lesson, students construct convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries using oobleck, foam, and tile. A large amount of background information and relevant...

Students understand the movement of tectonic plates. In this tectonic plates instructional activity, students access prior knowledge of convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.  Students discuss energy transfer involved in...

In this earth science learning exercise, students read and study about divergent and convergent boundaries, tectonic plates and volcanoes to complete 1 data chart 7 short answer questions.

Students examine the main features of the climate of the Tropical Pacific region by looking at maps and charting the tracks of one or more recent cyclones. After a brief discussion, they answer questions bout convergence zones and the...

In 1977, scientists discovered hot springs in the middle of deep, cold ocean waters near the Galapagos Islands. Scholars research the chemical reactions that explain what scientists found at the Lost City. A discussion connects many...

Students describe the activities that occurred in the Willamette Valley before the establishment of the Oregon Trail and agricultural settlement and explain the impact that American settlement had on the landscape and native groups who...

Students discover how volcanic processes differ at convergent and divergent tectonic plate boundaries. They identify three geologic features that are associated with most volcanoes on Earth.

For this metric space worksheet, students define a compact metric space, and explore continuous functions. They prove a function converges uniformly. This one-page worksheet contains six problems.

Students identify geologic features that are associated with volcanoes.  In this volcanic exploration lesson students compare and contrast convergent and divergent volcanoes and are able to explain why some erupt more explosively.

For this infinite sequences worksheet, students discover the convergence and divergent behavior of infinite sequences.  This worksheet references L'Hopital's rule.

Learners experiment with a converging lens. They observe the image of an object through a lens. They determine the magnification of the lens.

In this math learning exercise, students state the Alternating Series Test and give an example of it. They also write down an alternating series which does not converge.

In this root finding worksheet, students compare graphs and shade in regions corresponding to given convergence criteria. They compute the solution of equations of one variable. This two-page worksheet contains six problems.

Students identify the three layers of the earth: core, mantle and crust. They demonstrate knowledge of the concepts of convergent and divergent motions of the earth and an understanding of plate tectonics.

In this limit worksheet, students review limits stated as an expression, analyze Euler's method applied to a rate equation, compute the terms of a given sequence, and identify a sequence as a convergence or divergence. this four-page...

Learners analyze geometric series in detail. They determine convergence and sum of geometric series, identify a series that satisfies the alternating series test and utilize a graphing handheld to approximate the sum of a series.

In this math learning exercise, students Find the interval of convergence of the power series. Special attention should be paid by checking the endpoints.

In this fixed point iteration worksheet, students use given theorems to determine converged functional iteration. This six-page worksheet contains five problems. Explanations and examples are provided.

In this sum of a series activity, learners complete 6 multiple choice problems relating to the topic. They create an infinite series that converges to -2. Students graph one function on their graphing calculator.

For this algebra worksheet, students find the pattern and nth formula for different series. They decide whether a sequence will diverge or converge. There are 13 questions.

In this calculus worksheet, students find the Taylor series for each function adn give the interval where the series converges. The two page worksheet contains nine questions. Answers are not included.

Investigating plate tectonics, boundaries, and the earth's physical attributes is the focus of this short answer, tectonic plates worksheet. 

In this plate movement worksheet, students review the 3 types of plate boundaries and predict where plates will be as they continue moving along their current path. This worksheet has 2 short answer questions.

In this plate tectonics worksheet, students cut out plates given a map of the world. They construct an accurate model of the tectonic plates and answer questions about plate tectonics. They also color a map of the world to show the...
