Another great revision tool - tectonic plate rap

Here is a Rap made by a teacher that may also help you remember the three different types of plate boundaries we have learnt about in class. *If you do watch this Rap please focus only on the parts we have been learning in class and that are written below:

Remember these following tips:
CONVERGENT - plates collide (rub or push together). These can create earthquakes deep in the earth, volcanoes from the melted slab or mountains along the boundary line.

DIVERGENT - plate move away from each other (usually on the ocean floor). Maybe rises and cools to form new crust on the sea floor. Underwater volcanoes usually have gentle eruptions.

TRANSFORM - slide horizontally against each other. Either one plate moves quicker than another or they move in opposite directions. They cause POWERFUL earthquakes.

PLATE THEORY:
As we have discussed earlier in the term the plate tectonics theory is the theory that the Earth's outer layer is made up of a number of plates which have slowly moved throughout Earth's history. All of the world's land mass was considered to be one piece called Pangea (225 million years ago). The land mass then split into two (200 million years ago) to create Gondwanaland and Laurasia. Overtime the plates have continued to move at about the speed of a human's fingernail growth to create the continents we know today.
