6th Science
Studets have their work cut out for them this Quarter! They have already completed demonstrations/speeches for 4H. Now, they are putting together projects for the Science Fair. In addition to that, we are studying plate tectonics - the movement of oceanic and continental plates on the earth's surface. Ironically, there has been stark evidence of this action in Haiti this month. Most volcanic and earthquake activity occurs at or near plate boundaries - that is the place where plates meet. Do you know the difference between a convergent, divergent, and transform-fault boundary? Ask anyone from 6B and they will tell you! Check back at the midway point for more updates. Mr. Mauntel
